just can't put my finger on it...

... why I like this picture

help, por favor

I've been obsessed with the exit polls for a week now. And wanted to write something about the controversies surrounding California's Prop 8 vote ---- but, this is where i need help, for some reason I can't read this - CNN California page - can the rest of you read it?? As this "exit poll" (more on why its in quotes later) is the sole source of the "Blacks voted against us" I see all over websites and blogs, I wanted to take a closer look at that, and my other issues with the exit polls. Lemme know if y'all can read it and it's just my crummy computer acting up - otherwise I'll have to rely on my memory of reading the page last week.

update: i figured out the reason I can't view the page properly - g*ddam CA Security Firewall! but there are some crazy stats on that page; too sleep to go into it, maybe more later

Apparently, Senator, there IS a God!

My first tequila shot of the night came with the news: Hagan wins Senate seat held by Dole.

And we're going to take this country back for the people who built it.

"Our challenge today is not to re-hash what has happened, but to look forward, to make the Democratic Party a 50-state party again, and, most importantly, to win." - Howard Dean, December 2004. I encourage you to click and and read the whole speach, AFTER you vote!

update:

It's not that the line was long, it wasn't (but certainly the longest I've gotten into to vote); and of course, the variety of folks in line was, as usual, quite diverse; but I'd never seen such organization at my polling place. As the young Hispanic man looked at my voting postcard and saw my ED and began to move me up into the right line, he grabbed one of the "hoodlums" from my neighborhood to follow, but we were stopped as another election worker called this guy to help an elderly black woman. She explained how she is registered in Harlem, but not sure where, and looked quite worried about what to do. They patiently explained that they would look up her polling place, and that she would probably be filling out a paper ballot, and he took her hand and led her, and us, inside. Just as he was about to point to the table I should wait at, he noticed my cap, and asked me to take it off. (I was fairly confident that in NY I didn't have to, but I was in no mood to argue). I stood in line and fought back tears, hoping I could put that off til I was inside the booth. Waiting there, I turned to look at the extremely busy room, and my neighbor, the "hoodlum" was in line behind me. (I call him that with affection, as I know his face from the 15 years I've lived here, seeing him as a kid, and turn into a noisy, rowdy teenager, with the car radio blaring, and public fights with his buddies late into the night...) So, as I turn, I see the biggest smile on his face, as he nods recognition at me, the first time in 15 years he acknowledged my existence. He was practically giddy as they gave him a paper ballot to fill out, closely paying attention as he got his instructions on what to do. My eyes are welled up, but surprisingly, once in the booth, there was just this calmness as I pulled the lever, and remembered the camera.... I still can't believe this day!

going live

OK,wish me luck. And a big thanks to the gentleman who donated a bunch of DVD's and tapes to the BJ Bettermen Fund. checkout the auction link below again, should work now. But my eBay has changed since I was last selling a few months back! The VHS is a subcategory of "DVD's and movies" - and worse yet, the GAY ADULT is not segregated from the str8!! EWWWWWWW!!!!!
