Name:
Stupid
1) They're freakish, but if Martin wants to buy them, I have to make them look their best;
2) Homos seem to be the only people in the world fighting to go to church, get married, have kids and join the army. The rest of society has all but given up on these institutions. Weird. Personally, I don't agree with gay marriage, I think queer relationships allow us a unique space to make our own rules about what a relationship actually is, without the social pressure that makes every straight relationship lead to monogamy, kids, bed death, etc. We should be valuing that. However my sense of fairness makes me feel that if there are hyper conventional queers out there, let them play in the doll's house if there's no logical legal arguments to stop them. The reason I posted the link was my surprise that The Economist was pro gay marriage, not a comment on the issue itself;
3) The stale packet of Twinkies sounds good - having no idea what a Twinkie is, but having read about them since age 11, and actually even seen a bit of a half eaten one in The Goonies, and -fascinated - freeze framed for more information, then Half eaten Twinkie holds some appeal. Not as much appeal as #75,000 smackeroonies, but some. Second, we have a lottery here too, and I tend to refer to it as a Moron Tax. May pay out, my arse. Sheesh. I saw whatcha did there. You can't fool me so easy. Me name's not stupid.
4) Music? Where?
