Yes, but then I have a bias as a gay man. Taking gay out of the issue, I think that anytime a law that made anyone a criminal is thrown out of overturned due to societies changing values, all people convicted under that law in the past should be pardoned. I am thinking of people who married outside of their race, people convicted of felonies for drug offences that are now misdemeanors, minorities convicted of trespassing in an all white store or area, etc.

No, I checked all the top smartphones out before I bought my Galaxy II, and none have a dual Sim card,. I think the progblem is that in most markets you can buy a roaming connection with an international 800 number for less then it would cost to have dual sims on your phone. I keep my smartphone when I travel and use cheap phones with my partner or just buy new sim cards. Depends on where I am going and how long I will be there.

I did not choose to be gay, My boyfriend made the choice for me.

I know who the writers are, but the song was made famous by the limelighters. God we are old.

Whoops, you are correct. Washington owned one of the early natiolns largest distillery. There is a museum at Mt. Vernon build around it. Totally forgot. However, he did speak out against drunkiness, and was not know for being three sails to the wind.

Not really, Washington did not drink.

Your challenge is "flower drum song.

I could not agree more. The sad thing is I am too big to cry, and it hurts to much to laugh. ((Apologizes to A. Lincoln)). What has happened to our country?, and why can't we get people like Bloomberg or Buffet to run for President, who I agree would make good choices. I remember a plan by the democrats once to draft Iacocca to run. Sadly, he decided not to run as he felt he could not get anything accomplished in the present system. I'd suggest that in time of troubles we should appoint a dictator for a set period of time, but the Romans tried that and it did not work well for them, and I doubt it would for us.

I certainly do not always agree with this blogger, and your example is a great case in point where he is definitely off the mark. However, I do like his style. I must confess to having an admiration for sarcastic writers, whether it is subtle like Johanthon Swift or blatant like Bangkokbois. I admit to laughing quite hard on his last two turtle awards to Jabba The Butt, and Beachlover and finding quite a bit of truth in both of them, No he is not always right on, and no I do not always agree with him, but while sarcasism has been called the lowest form of humor, it definitely has a place in society. You may not be old enough to remember Gracho Marks, but he was an expert at using sarcasism. some of his famous lines. " “No, Groucho is not my real name. I am breaking it in for a friend,” “A man is as young as the woman he feels.” “A child of five could understand this. Fetch me a child of five.” “If you find it hard to laugh at yourself, I would be happy to do it for you.” “I never forget a face, but in your case I’ll be glad to make an exception.” “I have had a perfectly wonderful evening, but this wasn’t it.” We also have many examples by Mark Twain. "When an old enemy died, Twain said, “I didn’t attend the funeral, but I sent a nice letter saying I approved of it.” On the same subject, he said: “I have never killed a man, but I have read many obituaries with great pleasure.” Of the human condition, he said: “Often, it does seem a pity that Noah and his party did not miss the boat.” Need we not forget George Bernard Shaw or Oscar Wilde. Mark Twain brought sarcasm to an high art form. When an old enemy died, Twain said, “I didn’t attend the funeral, but I sent a nice letter saying I approved of it.” On the same subject, he said: “I have never killed a man, but I have read many obituaries with great pleasure.” Of the human condition, he said: “Often, it does seem a pity that Noah and his party did not miss the boat.”George Bernard Shaw was not only a great author but an ardent sarcastic. He said, possibly of David Grima, “He has no enemies, but is intensely disliked by his friends.” The fabulous Oscar Wilde said, “Some cause happiness wherever they go; others whenever they go.” I could go on and on, but what I am trying to show you is that sarcasism and sarcastic people are not abberitions.but it/they are using language as al tool that takes the concept of 'double meaning' to a whole new level. Whether you like what he says of not, this man does have a talent for doing just that, and thus is very readable in my book.

Okay, I propose it is time to open a new kettle of worms. What we really need is a Constitutional Convention where we can correct and imporve our present Constitution to include, who is a citizen, what standings do corporation have, how are voting process whould work and detail who can spend and how much, include a clear right to privacy, and I could go on and on. I wonder if a constitution convention would lead to a civil war.

Eeeuuuu Thats really low ing

I think you just answered you own question. I am not thrilled with Obama's leadershifp either, but it could be worse. Just look at the Republican line-up for Pres. and you can see what I mean

I bought two vouchers that can be used by June 30th. Great deal and a great way to book when you do not have firm dates.

I have never said you were beyond hope, nor have I thought it. However, you must keep in mind that I still believe in the tooth fairy and Santa Claus. I am a monkey and even older then Methuselah.

It depends on how old the lifeboats are?

It really is not a funny thing. On the other hand, some times the best way to deal with a tragedy is a little laughter. I just found this great story about Winston Churchill that I have to add. The current plight of the Costa Concordia reminds me of a comment made by Churchill. After his retirement he was cruising the Mediterranean on an Italian cruise liner and some Italian journalists asked why an ex-British Prime Minister should choose an Italian ship. “There are three things I like about being on an Italian cruise ship” said Churchill. “First their cuisine is unsurpassed. Second their service is superb. And then, in time of emergency, there is none of this nonsense about women and children first.”

The Italian captian is like some bad Italian joke. Not only does he drive his ship into a charted rock, but he abandons it at his first opportunity, leaving the evacuation of his passenger to some crew members and the passengers own resources. It must have been hell, which reminds me of another Italian joke. Heaven & Hell HEAVEN is where: The police are British The chefs Italian The mechanics are German The lovers are French and it's all organised by the Swiss HELL is where: The police are German The chefs are British The mechanics are French The lovers are Swiss and it's all organised by the Italians!!

When I was back in the USA I received a flue shot that contained protection for the bird flu. I assume the people in Hong Kong have the same thing. Of course the virus can mutate and probably will, but now I have some protection.

I have had no problems with this board update. Using firefox 9.0.1

You are lucky. I always get this seat.

Love the shape of those pants.

Great job FH, your do enjoy life. Loved the pictures and will plan a future trip. What is there to do in the town and how big is it. Best place to stay and how early to book. You flew what? Going with my partner ok?

No problem, both you and kokopelli asked this question. Well shame on your lack of belief. Just go to this web site where it is not only explained, but you can view dinosaurs and humans living side by side. http://creationmuseum.org/

I would love to see them, but I am not a member of ladyboy review. Can you post them here?
