If you’re not familiar with Robbie - where have you been hiding? Robbie is the always outrageous, sexually ambiguous, former member of boy-band Take That, that is entertaining as all hell. Buy his album “The Ego Has Landed” - which is a compiliation of many of his hits across the ocean - put together for [...]

My America is a land of make believe, a distant hope-filled future land that only exists in my heart and mind.
My America is a land of opportunity for all her citizens, a land of diverse beauty and richness unparralleled, where the citizens that control the power and resources freely participate and contribute, not for their [...]

Looks like old Georgie boy decided to side with Senator Santorum today… oooooh bad move …. guess the Log Cabin Republican’s will have to figure out how to respond to this one. You see, on Tuesday they called on Senator Santorum to fully apologize and disavow his comments disparaging gay Americans. In the press release [...]

Finally, a couple of Republican Senators (Snowe of Maine and Chafee of Rhode Island) have spoken out against Senator Santorum’s remarks.
I’m watching the Dixie Chicks on Primetime Thursday, talking about the crap their “fans” have been giving them, and it just makes me think about how truly awful this president is for the health of [...]

I am totally disgusted with this Administrations attacks on Gay and Lesbian’s in this country and around the world. What’s set me off this time? Well, it’s the silence from the White House (implying their support) on the issue of Sentaor Santorum’s anti-gay remarks made in an Associated Press interview for one.
Secondly I read today [...]

Thank you!

Today is my and Charlie’s 12 year Annivesary.
From our humble beginings in our mid twenties and our one bedroom apartment when we sat on the floor because we didn’t have any furniture, and committed our hearts to each other, to the point where we are today - twelve years later - is an incredible distance, [...]

Watched the weirdest movie I’ve seen in many years … Beau Travail - in French with English subtitles …
Other than saying it was weird, which is a polite way of saying don’t waste your time…. I have nothing else to say about this movie, except I want to know what the first song in the [...]

Just saw Bushie talking to his supporters at Boeing (I think) - he said that Sadaam’s regime “built palaces in a country that needed hospitals” … um, isn’t Bushie kinda guilty of that too? Not palaces per se, but giving away tax breaks to the wealthly when this country needs a universal medical plan? When [...]

Excuse me? What’s the point of this show if no one gets married? They should have done the show, step one, couples get matched up, step two, they get MARRIED, step three, move into big house, meet in-laws, every week there after, incompatible couples have to get a divorce. Now that would would have been [...]

My copper soldering skills and Charlie’s CPVC expertise combined to make the new water lines we ran this weekend a work of art… OK it’s no Roman Aquaduct, but I’m really proud that we saved all that money and have the end result of running hot and cold water and drainage in two new spots [...]

When Democracy Failed: The Warnings of History
by Thom Hartmann
The 70th anniversary wasn’t noticed in the United States, and was barely reported in the corporate media. But the Germans remembered well that fateful day seventy years ago - February 27, 1933. They commemorated the anniversary by joining in demonstrations for peace that mobilized citizens all across [...]

Thought this was a great screen capture I grabbed from the Dixie Chicks video “Landslide” - kinda timely with Natalie Maines being metephorically crucified by Country Music fans for her comments about her dissatisfaction with the U.S. President.
Does anybody know that song, the chorus goes “I am crucified ….” something something something … I know, [...]

Did you notice the IraQi Resistance Headquarters the last time you visited P-town? Just finished watching a Fox News Sunday (ugh! Fox News sucks!) interview with a leader of the IraQi Resistance, the caption under him read “Provincetown MA” … so there you have it … this war isn’t about WMD (weapons of mass destruction) [...]

It’s confession time, I secretly occasionally stop and watch the 700 Club while flipping channels, just to remind myself how evil some highly visible “Christians” are. I won’t tell you my nickname for Pat Robertson, I think it’s totally appropriate but I’m sure he wouldn’t agree with me.
OK, so I stopped on the broadcast a [...]
