"When you have examined all the illusions of life and know that there isn't any reality, but you nevertheless go on, then you are a mature human being. You accept the idea that it is all mask and illusion and that people are in disguise. You see the crumbling of reality and you accept it." -Marguerite Young

Sorry for the delay folks, been reading various this and thats and it slowed down today's posting. For those of you who care, my stats from yesterday's game were...

2 innings 0.00 ERA for the win, 1-1 with 1 RBI.

Now allow me to guide you through some of the blogosphere this morning...

Governor Spitzer of New York will be pushing forward a bill to legalize same-sex marriage in his state. This is great progress for the nation, if a place like New York legalizes it I can only imagine how many other states will follow suit.

The Office of Special Counsel is going forward with an investigation into Karl Rove and some of the other Administration cronies. Check out the link to see why this is even more interesting then a congressional investigation.

Speaking of Rove and the Administration, there may be some new evidence about the 2004 Election and Ohio. Namely that for some reason the Secretary of State website that published the results for some reason went from a state government server to the very same server that holds those missing emails from the RNC.

This is just an example of one of the reasons I vow never to go into Georgia again. Just the plain ignorance and stupidity of some of its residents.

Kryptonite apparently exists, it's just a shame that it doesn't work on Karl Rove and Faux News.

If you need any evidence that the VA Tech shooter was just batshit insane, just check out what else he bought on eBay. I know people OBSESSED with ducks that would NEVER purchase those just for their own amusement.

Rep Feney, who has long been suspected of being part of the Abramoff group of Reps, is finally being investigated even if he is doing so "voluntarily". This likely comes as a former aide has just been busted for being one of Abramoff's loyal soldiers on Capitol Hill.

It is rare that I find a church that attempts to do good, but there such a church in Indianapolis it appears. Though local fundies apparently hate to hear evidence that disprove their homophobic beliefs. My hat goes off to a church that actually attempts to teach the REAL teachings of Jesus Christ, not the teachings of old white men who love power and have their own skewed beliefs.

Just in case you were wondering, Chuck Norris gives us HIS opinion on why the VA Tech shootings took place. I wonder though, is this because he has become a right wing fundy or after decades of karate and movies, he thinks that the shooter was an extra in one of his Missing In Action movies, one wonders.
