Ism's and Phobias, oh my
Every fiber in my being, every cell of intellect I am fortunate to possess tells me that I should consider the source and dismiss this out of hand and by no means allow my own feelings to be hurt by this. Can someone smarter than me, then, please explain to me why it hurts so much to watch this... Read more...

Rethinking Sexism: How Trans Women Challenge Feminism
It's been a long time since I wrote a blog post. And, I guess if I'm honest here, I'm not writing one now. I don't know when, or if, I'll ever blog regularly again. But, that's not the point of this post. I came across this article nearly a week ago. But, I've been crazy busy with... Read more...

I DO!
Congratulations to the people of the State of California on this historic day! How cool is it that Phyllis Lyon and Del Martin get to be at the head of the line? 55 years together. In their 80s.

Happy Father's Day!!
Today is a special day for me! It's Father's day! I am -- as nearly anyone who knows me surely understands -- unabashedly proud of my three daughters, and I (often) bore people as I regale them with stories of my children and their accomplishments. But, today! Today, I can revel in them... Read more...

Obama for President!
Barack Obama sealed up the nomination tonight. I am inspired by him and excited about the possiblity of seeing him in the White House. Now, I just have to figure out how I can best support his candidacy and get him into the Presidency and keep Bush McCain out. Oddly, I am also saddened today... Read more...

How do I love thee?
You all know I'm a veteran. I'm proud of my service. I consider myself a patriot (this in apparent direct contradiction to my belief that nationalism is a crime most heinous). But, I abhor war. I believe, sincerely, that there must be another way. I don't know what that way is. I'm... Read more...

Since you've been gone
Sunday, Mother's Day, is the 1 year anniversary of my mother's death. I still miss her every single day. Mary and I went to a concert by Cheryl Wheeler at the Ark in Ann Arbor a few weeks back and loved her so much we bought a couple of her albums. I came across this song on one of them. ...

Our elected officials
Perhaps you think this post is about the scandalous Eliot Spitzer. No. He is simply another liar and a cheat whose crimes hurt mostly himself and his immediate family. No, here I speak about the Oklahoma state rep who gave this speech: What really moved me to write, though, was a letter... Read more...
