Still no date for the legal action against CCGLA. In discussing this with the County Court, they advised that it will most likely be scheduled after May, when the court starts to meet more regularly (the Justice Court deals with a lot of truancy issues, and it appears this is best handled when kids are… Continue reading

Bible Quotes
I've had the first part of this on my website as one of the rotating quotes, but thought I would post it here along with the “other” sins. Quite a nice reminder. “The Bible contains six admonishments to homosexuals, and 362 to heterosexuals. This doesn't mean God doesn't love heterosexuals, it's just that they need… Continue reading

Tonight is Oscar Night

I'm normally not into these award shows, but this year I thought it woudl be fun to make a competition, and have our own ballots before the show started. Jonas, Brian, Chris and I will be our own Academy. I've even done up lovely ballots… Continue reading
