Reasonably Logical

Just got done reading the article below. On one level, cool - it’ll be nice to be able to settle *that* argument conclusively. On the other hand, I couldn’t help dreading the idea of a gay/anti-gay drug. Am I the only one flashing back to the 3rd X-Men movie? You know someone is going to propose it for real at some point. Why do I think I know what radically anti-gay fundies are going to be proposing in a few years?

One question for those of you who actually read my blog: (there are some) Would you take an anti-gay drug? Or for that matter a gay-for-a-day drug? If so, why? Why not?

Sometimes I think we really should bomb these f*ckers back into the stone age. No wait, they never left!

As you can no doubt tell, I’m slightly pissed off about this.

Every year people ask me what I want for Christmas, so for this year I’m actually making a list. Items are in no real order.

• Small Travel Luggage (overnight bag)
• Book Gift Cards (Barnes & Noble, Borders or Amazon)
• Semi-dressy short sleeve shirts suitable for work (Macy’s gift cards work too)
• A nice (but not insanely nice) knife set for the kitchen
• Book: “The Complete Krav Maga”
• A set of practice gloves suitable for martial arts (Krav Maga)
• A set of driving gloves (knit or *flexible* leather)
• A reasonably complete tool set (nothing excessive, but quality is important)
• A business card scanner with OCR (must be compatible with Thunderbird)
• A donation to a charity I support. Good choices would be:
  1. The Point Foundation - I’ve been giving to them since I first started college.
  2. Sylvia’s Place in NYC
  3. ACLU
  4. Lambda Legal
