Finally . . .

. . . a gay and lesbian advocacy group who's not going to just rollover and take a chainsaw up the ass (*cough-cough-HRC-cough*). The Los Angelas Gay & Lesbian Center, the world's largest gay and lesbian organization with a budget of $35 million, is demanding that Microsoft return the Corporate Vision Award presented to it at the 30th Anniversary Gala in 2001. Not only has the L. A. G&L Center rescinded the award, they are also demanding that Microsoft cease promoting on their corporate website that they received it. Read more details about it here, here, and take action here.

Thank you AMERICAblog for covering this story better than the salivating GOP 4th Reich, propagandist lap-dogs also known as the Mainstream Media, ever would.

Well, I came across the new Nine Inch Nails video for the song "Only." After watching it, I decided I had to share it with everyone because it reminded me of a music video from the '80s by Aha (sp.?). You know the one I'm talking about--unless you're too young to have seen it, let alone remember it.--it was "Take on Me."

Both depict being trapped in an alternate plain of existence visible to and of physical reality, but seperated and sharply divided from it--the inner fantasy world juxtaposed and competing with reality. Anyway, enjoy! (Video No Longer Available) Cheers-Thanksalot!

We call her the bitchpuss for a reason. But before I get to that, a little early biography . . . She came to use a few weeks after our first anniversary at our first apartment, way back in 1999, when Clinton was still president, gas was 99 cents a gallon, and I had just turned 21 and finished my first semester at college. This tiny voice in the bushes outside our apartment building started mewing at me as I headed off to class. Stooping to peer through the bushes, I discovered the tiny furry black source—and she discovered me! About six-weeks-old and all black except for a white star on her chest, she came tottering out of the bushes and straight toward me. I picked her up and gave a little rub on the head, but being that I was running late, I quickly put her back down under the bushes and convinced myself that she must belong to the people in the apartment behind the bushes (never mind that it was vacant). When I returned from class I didn't see or hear her, so I figured her own...
