Phillary

"Could you imagine if Rocky Balboa had gotten halfway up those Art Museum stairs and said, 'Well, I guess that’s about far enough?' Let me tell you something, when it comes to finishing the fight, Rocky and I have a lot in common. I never quit. I never give up."

What more fitting venue than Philadelphia, PA for Hillary to spout such rhetorical trope? Still set on hanging tough, I see, notwithstanding the inevitable outcome.

If memory serves, Rocky lost. The black dude won.

Balboan doggedness or Quixotian fantasy ... either way, you have to give the lady props for keeping the blinders on. God bless her.

Maybe she didn't see the movie, I don't know. Doesn't she have people, though, to check out such things? I'd reckon that there are some less-than-favorable performance evaluations forthcoming.

    Doug R,
    Is Bill Hilary's Mickey? I can see her in the freezer boxing meat.

    Her "people" are busy watching Bill and chick flicks. (Yes, I said it.)

    Hey, I watch chick flicks, don't be a hater! Although I'd probably broaden my cinematic horizons a bit if my job depended on such.

Don't Ask, Don't Tell - Just Do It

Like most other gay folks, I was gratified the other night to hear President Obama announce at the State of the Union address his intention to put repealing Don't Ask, Don't Tell on the agenda for 2010. Of course we were all hyped when we heard it the first time, too. Back when he was pandering the rainbow coalition for votes during his campaign, pledging to be a "fierce advocate" for LGBT rights. To start working toward getting rid of DADT during his first year as president was part of that promise. Not that he has totally snubbed us, I guess, but tagging him a "fierce advocate" is probably a stretch . It's really little wonder that much of the queer community reacted approvingly, but also with a fair amount of skepticism, the other night after hearing him vow again to do what he vowed once before with nothing gotten done so far. This DADT thing, I wouldn't think, should be such a big ordeal to get over and done with in short order. Even military p...

Hung on the Cross

So what, I'm not very mature for my age. I don't care, I'm easily amused because of it, and I enjoy being amused. Like this picture of a crucifix which was hoisted a couple of months ago above the main altar at the St. Charles Borromeo Catholic church in Oklahoma: I can come up with lots of hilariously inappropriate captions here, some that even I am embarrassed to admit thinking up, despite my unabashed crudity. I would share but probably everyone else is too sophisticated to see the humor. Plus, I really don't want to go to Hell. I'm guessing that there are an awful lot of Okie parishioners down there at the church where this is hung for real, who I reckon wouldn't appreciate my sense of humor about it, either. They are, in general, hugely offended by it instead, because they see nothing funny whatsoever about displaying Jesus' ginormous penis in church, not in the least bit! Seems as though this has caused quite a "deep divide" among members o...
