Interesting times. When you put yourself out there, people feel free to tell you what they think. This is not always very comfy, because often they differ. Often they agree though and I just had a very comfy (Liberals! Fuck yeah!) conversation with Gersh, who found me on Facebook after 15 years of living in the same city, knowing the same people and never seeing each.

Rebecca Rosenak explains it all for you.
Me, Sam Saldivar and Ms. Rosenak backstage during The Room
other. (Ah, Los Angeles. You know that person you run into once a month? You might not see him again for 15 years. ) Gersh explained the whole bail-out thing to me from the guy-who-always-was-thinking-about-$-when-the-rest-of-us-were-failing-forward perspective and I kind of get it, but I have many suspicions. Sis Nanc sent me a forward (one of the rare ones that she and I agree on) that said giving every American a million bucks would be cheaper than this bail-out. I think that would be much more fun.
So Rebecca sends out an e-mail to her peeps promoting Joe’s Garage (see it) and Eenie Meanie (love her) and at the bottom of her e-mail, she adds this commentary, which is so nail on the fucking head, I’m just walking away.
AND ON THAT NOTE: I realize I'm preaching to the choir with, well,
all of you, but if you are registered to vote in California, please
remember to vote down the hatemongers' Proposition 8 when you go to
the voting booths this November to support the candidate of your
choice (obama), whomever that may be (obama), as it is your right as a
citizen to do (obama). We do NOT need sanctioned hatred and
discrimination against our gay brothers and sisters in our state laws!
A few things to think about:
If you're Christian:
Luke: 37: Judge not, and ye shall not be judged: condemn not, and ye
shall not be condemned: forgive, and ye shall be forgiven.
Proverbs 23:7: For as he thinks in his heart, so is he.
Matthew 22:36-38: Thou shalt love thy neighbour as thyself.
For the Tribe members:
LEVITICUS 24:19 And if a man cause a blemish in his neighbour; as he
hath done, so shall it be done to him.
LEVITICUS 19:18 Thou shalt not avenge, nor bear any grudge against the
children of thy people, but thou shalt love thy neighbour as thyself:
I am the Lord.
And for you gorgeous godless heathens:
No State shall make or enforce any law which shall abridge the
privileges or immunities of citizens of the United States; nor shall
any State deprive any person of life, liberty, or property, without
due process of law; nor deny to any person within its jurisdiction the
equal protection of the laws. –U.S. Constitution, 14th Amendment
If you want to be free, there is but one way; it is to guarantee an
equally full measure of liberty to all your neighbors. There is no
other. --Carl Schurz
(...who also said, "My country, right or wrong; if right, to be kept
right; and if wrong, to be set right.")
Anger and intolerance are the enemies of correct understanding.--
Mohandas Gandhi
LOVE TO YOU ALL! Please forward this as you see fit!
