I was listening to a radio show and heard some
disturbing news. Apparently some very OLD news. The
city of San Francisco is paying for city employee's
sex changes as a normal part of medical benefits.
They called it a civil right! It is costing something
like $40000 for hes wanting to be shes, and $80000
for shes wanting to be hes. And that is just the

counseling and therapy and the list goes on. Click

Diced that is, she's moving up in the world, from

waste of time, as we did not know anyone and it was
mostly a "gathering" hour. The people that we went
with smartly skipped this hour and only showed up at
the beginning of the second hour, when they seated us
in the ballroom.

Thoughts
Well, all. I have been LONG overdue for an update,
and for that I apologize. Things have been busy here
and I have been cherishing every tiny bit of free
time allotted to me. As you all know Iíve been in
Iraq for about three weeks now. I came here with a
detachment of Electronics marines and we are already
kicking butt and taking names (and by that I mean we
are fixing broken stuff.. not shooting people).

original. I will give this talk tomorrow, but you

Elitism gets such a bad rap...

Yeah. A friend today said he would buy a Mac, as they
are great machines, except that it seemed people who
owned Macs were elitist pricks. Lets check out
dictionary.com for a nice definition of elitisim...
