a beautiful day in the neighborhood
R.I.P. Mr. Fred Rogers.

Did anyone catch the WB teen-soundtrack version of 'The Lone Ranger' last night? It tracks the origins of the now-A&F Ranger and how he met Tonto (hottie) and Silver. It was pretty good, actually. I think I'll keep watching it. And since WB is now the only network producing series in addition to reality shows, I'll chalk myself up as a dedicated fan.
With all these trashy reality shows where marriage is determined by audience votes or tawdry processes of elimination, I question the gay community's ongoing battle to fight for this squandered institution. Breeders are making a mockery of marriage and relationships, so why is it of any importance to us? I would never allow a television viewing audience to hook me up. Well, maybe for a date, but not for marriage. I'd also allow my blogging audience to hook me up too (hint, hint). You know what I want.
Rugby practice last night was a blast, and I was in shape and outta control. Did you know that aggression is also quelled by antidepressants? All I have to say is GRRR! Look out! Plus, my heart swelled with joy and pride as someone referred to me as 'The Scrumhalf' last night.

Had to comment- We gays can take this opportunity to take the lead and the high ground on marriage, given the rot that seems to be setting in with the straights (not that they had the best track record to start with, look at the divorce rate, and the cheating rate).
And it's not about "not aping the heteros" - it's about having equal access to rights.

I saw the Lone Ranger for a few minutes...it looked ok...I was channel surfing and saw a young man sitting in some sort of mini hot spring (boiling water didnt seem to bother him though..I suppose the water wasnt boiling...maybe some sort of natural jacuzzi?) and he was having some sort of j.o. fantasy about a Native American chick.... despite a low bhi, he was quite lickable..I mean likeable..... then I watched tanto do some superhero jump and realized they must now have super powers...damn remember when a GUN solved all your problems? Nowadays you have to have super powers too...sheesh.... Jimbo, what are you super powers??

I couldn't agree with Sam less, fuck marriage. A real love has nothing to do with vows, contracts, and symbological bullshit, leave that to the dumb ass muthafuckas and they beatches.
