I am being asked to go out into the neighborhoods of people who think I am subhuman to knock on their doors and talk to them about how I'm gay but I'm nice, and here's why they should support me. Hello? That is dangerous stuff you're talking about there, and I'm not going to risk my life so that people can tell me to my face what an evil pervert I am but "Oh, we love you because Jesus is love." You're white. Have you ever had an African-American come to your door to do this? And you live in California, right? Hardly the scariest place in America. Why don't you recommend to African-Americans that they do some "outreach" in your town?"---- LA TIMES<BR/><BR/><BR/><BR/>(Then why not take the message to upper-class white Republican towns like Palos Verdes and Orange County....as i've been saying.....)Maxine Weisshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18164122931399241972noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6329595.post-53778814628872337962008-11-09T23:15:00.000-06:002008-11-09T23:15:00.000-06:00SARAH PALIN'S KITCHEN:http://gretawire.files.wordp...SARAH PALIN'S KITCHEN:<BR/><BR/>http://gretawire.files.wordpress.com/2008/11/24.jpg<BR/><BR/>And, look way over to the left...her knife set, with one of the knives missing !<BR/><BR/>I can only imagine what happened to that one knife.<BR/><BR/>http://gretawire.files.wordpress.com/2008/11/24.jpg<BR/><BR/><BR/>________________________Maxine Weisshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18164122931399241972noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6329595.post-15421608950037764202008-11-09T21:01:00.000-06:002008-11-09T21:01:00.000-06:00I was lucky enough to score some old Don Marquis a...I was lucky enough to score some old Don Marquis archy and mehitabel books at a yard sale a couple of weeks ago. love them.

It is comforting to find that there are kindred souls out there. I still subscribe to the Smithsonian, but I find that I have to read around some of their articles. The recent one about Iran/Persia, for example, annoyed me. Not so much has gone right for the women and common people of Iran during the past 4000 years of recorded history. Had we not aided in a coup back in the early 50's, the country would be some kind of utopia by now according to the Smithsonian. The pictures are fun to look at though....Buying Smithsonian for the reading is like buying Playboy for the reading.Williamhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07837540030934495651noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6329595.post-55036095587103430052008-11-09T11:55:00.000-06:002008-11-09T11:55:00.000-06:00Thanks, Jeff.
