  • Donna & Bob’s 50th anniversary party

    I had the please to go to Nashville to celebrate with my family for my sister and brother-in-law’s anniversary. My nieces and nephews, Teri, Melanie, Rob, Bryan, and Beth , did a fantastic job of putting this all together. I wish I had enough time to see my parents make it to such a auspicious occasion. Here is to family. Here is to Love. Here is to Joy!

  • I think that our business with Netlix is…

    I think that our business with Netlix is about to end. What company would charge you 60% more just so they can expand into Mexico and South America? Netflix is who. I know when I’m being screwed and this will not be the company that does it to me!

  • The last evidence of our hail storm damage…

    The last evidence of our hail storm damage will be gone. The siding is going up and it matches the house almost exactly in color. We already notice the room is quieter and more cool than before1 THANKS “Home Depot!”

  • Please take time to watch the post just…

    Please take time to watch the post just below this one of our legal marriage in CA. This marriage caused no one any harm. No one can hate such a beautiful moment. No one anywhere in the US should fear gay marriage as an affliction on the holiness of matrimony. Any person, straight or gay, deserves equality in this civil society. This evening brings hope to many more Americans.

  • Third Anniversary of our California Same-sex Marriage

    It’s important to recognize that Andy & I were already married by our rabbi on August 8, 2004, in the eyes of God and our close family and friends. Nonetheless, we commemorate today the third anniversary of our “legal” marriage in California on June 21, 2008. California began marrying same–sex couples legally on Tuesday, June 17, 2008, and Andy & I drove Friday night to get to San Diego so we could be married the first day we could. It was not just a political statement, since we were already married and still are, but we did it for political and legal reasons. We went to show California that same–sex couples demanded legal marriage. As it turned out, we were married by a sweet young man who had been deputized for the occasion and was as sympathetic to our cause as can be, and we were blessed to have a few of our closest friends and my mother there to join us. It was, as you can see in the video, a heartfelt, tearful, and joyful occasion. This should not be an ephemeral phenomenon. Same–sex marriage should become legal throughout the Land of the Free and the Home of the Brave. It’s way past due.
