Anyone that reads this blog knows that I support Proposition 8 and support traditional marriage between man and woman.
The opposition preaches the rhetoric of "tolerance". Hah.
I woke up this morning to go to church and after pulling out of the garage looked and noticed that the two Yes Prop 8 signs in my front yard were destroyed. I looked around my neighborhood and saw that a few houses also suffered the same consequence.
"Tolerance" is misleading. Don't be fooled. "Tolerance" is one-sided and has a double standard. I am expected to "tolerate" those that annihilate the sanctity of family and marriage. While they abhor, devestate, and shriek intolerance to anybody challenging their debauched scheme.
Little did our tolerant thug know is that I have 3 extra signs sitting in my garage. I replaced the ones in my yard and will make a trip to my neighbor's house with the fresh, new, yellow YES on PROP 8 yard signs.

TUBES IN MY EARS
Wednesday 10/22/2008 Jonathan had tubes put in his ears.
Our check-in time at the surgery center was 5:30 a.m. I remember the nurse calling to tell us our appointment time and my reaction was drop-jaw. I informed the nurse that I wasn't sure what 5:30 a.m. looked like. Anyway the night before the surgery we went to bed normal time. At 2:00 a.m. Jonathan woke up crying, scratch that, sobbing and coughing his seal-cough. I got up and went into his room and stood by his bed and listened. He was really congested and having a hard time breathing (of course this happens the day before surgery). Steve and I got the humidifier going and got Jonas back to sleep. Only a couple of hours later we were up and at the surgery center. Once Jonathan got called back the surgery time only took 10-15 minutes. We went back to recovery while Jonathan was coming out of anesthesia. He cried and cried. But after a short while was back to sleep and we were driving home. At home Jonathan and myself laid in my bed and slept on and off until 11:45 a.m. At that time Jonathan got up and announced that he was going to play.
Jonathan hasn't stopped since. His cough is improving and plays with zeal and fervor.
We are grateful that the tubes are in and we are excited that Jonathan may feel better, hear better, and possibly speak better. O the possibilities.
"Teachor, teachor, teachor...I've got toooobes in my eors." Anybody that knows me knows this quote. Accent and all.

Lesser of Two Evils
I have been a registered voter since I was 18. I have voted in all of the elections since that time.
All presidential elections have been nail-biters for me but this one (2008) has me on edge. I am scared. I don't necessarily agree with either of the candidates but will yet again be forced to select from the "lesser of two evils". Why does it always come down to that philosphy? No answer.
Watch this 11:00 video. This video reveals facts that will never be shared by the alphabet nation.

Going "Viral"
Steve and I heartily and fervently support Proposition 8.
We will both give a YES vote on this issue November 4, 2008.
I encourage all to:
1. Register to Vote
2. Research the Matter
3. Make an informed decision
4. VOTE!!
“The face of sin today often wears the Halloween mask of tolerance. Do not be deceived. Behind that facade is heartache, unhappiness, and pain. You know what is right and what is wrong, and no disguise, however appealing, can change that truth. The character of transgression remains the same. If your so called friends urge you to do anything you know to be wrong, you be the one to make a stand for right, even if you stand alone. Have the moral courage to be a light for others to follow. There’s no friendship more valuable than your own clear conscience, your own moral cleanliness…”
