Two New Adds and One Appeal

I suppose it's about time that I modified my bloglist. Two have been booted and two have been added. I'm in the same boats as Season and John so I thought they would be at the top of my add priority.

Jacksonville, Florida...umm yeah I want to be there! While Jacksonville, FL may not be the first place I'd like to get a job and live, I definitely want to get out of where I am currently. If you're looking to hire, check out Season.

John's Open a Window has been more raw than my other blog has ever been. It's sort of odd reading posts that could have been your own. We're traveling down similar paths and hopefully, someday, we'll stand completely on the other side of the closet door.

Finally, I'm beginning to miss one of my blog buddies. Hey Kate, are you on vacation again?! Let's see an update, eh?

UPDATE 13 July 2006 2354:
I guess I have one more reader than I thought. Adding Robert from little voice, a former Michigander now in Chicago. One of the few bloggers that I enjoy as an info source on the performing arts.

I'm so happy to have met someone who can completely relate to me. I know that the other bloggers out there also have relevant experiences and journeys. I'm glad to have made a friend along this journey.

John: I hope you take what I am about to say in the spirit it was intended. I'm glad that I've come across your site because I actually feel like I can relate to you a little more than some of the other bloggers out there. It doesn't feel so lonely. Not that I want anyone in a similar position as mine. It looks like you have a great following on your blog and we are all wishing you the best. :)

Robert: I haven't booted you. You were never listed in the first place, silly! :-P

Honestly, I didn't even know you were still keeping tabs on me. Glad to see you here though.

Tell you what, since I've listed you on the other blog and since you were kind enough to follow me to this one, I'll plug ya in the sidebar.

I have an asterisk. Does that mean I'm on probation? Or a blogstar? Or singled out for ridicule?

I'm incredibly paranoid, dude, TELL ME WHAT IT MEANS!!

^Nah, the asterisk indicates that the blog has recently been updated.

Blog Star... hah! j/k.

Meet Bob

 I ordered my Ford Escape PHEV on October 13, 2022 and I finally took delivery on September 1, 2023. h/t to my salesman Meet Bob. Actually, I thought I would come up with a better name since my last car was named Patty because I got her on St. Patrick's Day. But after spending about three minutes trying to think of something clever, I threw in the towel and settled on Bob. So this is a base model PHEV. It doesn't have things like a heads up display, 360 degree camera, premium audio system, etc. Mind you, I came from a base fiesta. Patty had roll-down windows and didn't even have cruise control. This is a very big upgrade for me. A little over two weeks in, I've hit 1,000 miles. I've tried to force some non-ev time. I'm not sure what kind of engine break in is needed for this. I figured I should do some of that and get its first oil change before I head down to Florida with it in November. So far, just one and one-quarter tanks of gas used. Averaging 86 mpg. Most

Be fruitful and multiply...by ten.

Some coworkers and I were talking about that lady in Arkansas that just delivered her 17th child. The Associated Press announced the good news a couple days ago and I remembered the family from the Discovery Channel . The Duggar family had been the subject of a number of specials dealing with large families. They are especially memorable given that the number of kids as well as their, well, peculiar lifestyle. The people that I was talking to balked at the idea of having that many kids with a few of them openly calling the Duggar parents crazy. I have to admit, I think that they are little bonkers in the head too. But you know, that’s cool on the other hand too. And it’s actually impressive that they are able to afford to have such a large family. There are some parts of me that would like to have a large family. (My definition of large stops at five kids just so you know.) But their criticisms largely used the Duggars' religious faith. From what this article indicated, they are pa

Whatever happened to the Queer Golden Rule?

Wow, Tyler Whitney is popping up all over the gay blogging circuit but the rest of America doesn’t care. Mr. Whitney is an 18 year old staffer for a Republican candidate for President. He was outed. This has caused a little firestorm amongst the gay bloggies with many calling this guy a bigot, an a-hole, and even worse. The way some people have responded to this, Mr. Whitney is fit to be tied to the stake and burned for not being a good little gay. I do not deny that Mr. Whitney has done some pretty offensive stuff. Carrying anti-gay placards that aren’t even fit to be called “homophobic” certainly strikes points against him. However, as I read more about him the more I genuinely feel the need to reach out and hug him. Because I know that he has got to be feeling pretty alone. He’s getting grief from two communities who are openly hostile to which he belongs -conservatives and gays. I have to ask though, is he really deserving of such scorn? Look, his “crime” is working for an
