Published by September 11th, 2009 in civil rights, listen up!, that is so gay, tragic, venting and wtf?!. 8 CommentsYelp: a(nother) soapbox for bigots?
Published by August 5th, 2009 in all about me, blog on blog, civil rights, is it just me?, listen up!, that is so gay, tragic, venting, well? and wtf?!. 15 CommentsImagine my surprise when someone requested to be friends with me on Yelp today, and I find out that he is writing extremely hurtful and bigoted remarks about me in one of his “reviews”. Not only did he post the review, but after it was taken down, he was allowed to remain member of Yelp, [...]
um, thanks… FOR NOTHING
Published by June 18th, 2009 in civil rights, is it just me?, listen up!, near and dear, politics, that is so gay, venting, well? and wtf?!. 0 CommentsIt seems that my outrage yesterday was a little less than it should have been. Turns out, the gesture Obama tried to placate us with, was worth nothing: The memorandum Obama signed Wednesday is not expected to grant health and retirement benefits to same-sex partners, as that is prohibited under the Defense of Marriage Act.

First of all, at lunch, I was reaching in my pocket to grab my wallet, and a goddamned business card turned into a rogue ninja and sliced the fuck out of my finger; under the fingernail. Seriously, it still stings. How does shit like this always happen to me? UPDATE: Literally, two seconds ago, I [...]

Published by October 16th, 2008 in is it just me?, mixed media, music musings, venting, well?, wtf?! and you tube. 6 CommentsAs I was thinking up the list of songs that I will be featuring on tomorrow’s 5SF, I pondered the potential of at least one of said songs having a video on youtube, as I always do. One song in particular (which I will not name, because I have to have some secrecy to bring [...]
how much further to rock bottom?
Published by September 22nd, 2008 in get involved, is it just me?, listen up!, politics, tragic, venting, well? and wtf?!. 8 CommentsGas is pretty much coming up short here in ATL; it is getting hard to find gas at most of the gas pumps that I have seen around town. It just makes me wonder, just how prepared are we for disaster? I mean, this shortage is because of two hurricanes in the gulf coast… that [...]
but they tied
Published by August 19th, 2008 in is it just me?, mixed media, tragic, venting and wtf?!. 8 CommentsLast night, I was watching some great women’s gymnastics when something happened that really kind of bothered me. I am all about sportsmanship and fairness when it comes to this thing, because it really is the only thing that the world can come together on and participate in and not fight over (and if they [...]
the wrong way to act take two: bitchy old queen of a bartender edition
Published by July 20th, 2008 in all about me, that is so gay, tragic, venting and wtf?!. 12 CommentsWhat happened last night can only be described as surreal. Trying to order a drink at a bar got me yelled at, to which I walked away from, and then the bartender came after me for more, which led to my ultimately leaving the bar. I think that what I wrote for my yelp review [...]

Published by April 1st, 2008 in hmm interesting, is it just me?, listen up!, mixed media, music musings, music suggestion, venting, well? and wtf?!. 3 CommentsOkay, just last week, I was sort of ranting about the similarity between two songs, and low and behold it has happened again. However, this time, there is one key exception: I have heard two songs that not only sound similar, but I swear, they are the same damn song!!! I was riding with James [...]
