Gays in Boy Scouts

I have to agree with the boy that said “I think discrimination within the Boy Scouts gets rid of the whole concept of what the Boy Scouts are all about,” in this article. I was not surprised when I read that “In anger or sadness, some have simply walked away, considering Boy Scouts no better now than a whites-only country club. Earlier this spring Steven Spielberg, a former Eagle Scout, ended 10 years on the advisory board, saying he could no longer serve a group that practices “intolerance and discrimination.”” I will leave my son in Scouts for now, but I do not agree with their stance on this situation. If they start to question whether or not someone is gay, what is next? As as single mom are they going to start questioning my sexual behavior? And then what? I just see so many problems with their theory and I was happy to read that they are losing support of schools, etc. where they used to get many things for free or have preferential treatment.

That’s ALL?

I am worth exactly $1,672,062.00. Calculated thanks to Human For Sale, found thanks to Wantwit and Melissa. Both of them are worth a lot more than I am.

Ever have one of those days?

By the way, I also hijacked this picture from FilePile. It cracks me up. Added later: I should give credit to the person that posted it, but guess what? There is no link to their site. Oh well, bummer. Their user name on FilePile is Gegtik though. That’s the best I can offer right now.

If you had to pick a famous person…

If you had to pick a famous person that you look like, who would it be? I have been told I look like Belinda Carlisle (of the Go-Go’s) and Sally Fields (during the Gidget years). The funny thing about Belinda Carlisle is that our hair cuts seem to remain pretty similar – mine was short, hers was short; mine was long, hers was long. Then to top it off, when I was pregnant with Jason, she was pregnant too!

So who is your famous person? Leave it in the comments or send me an e-mail. I am curious. I want to know…

Quack…

Today’s little bit of humor:
A duck walks into a bar and orders a beer. The bartender says, “Oh my god, a talking duck!” The duck says, “Yeah, yeah, just gimme my beer.” So the bartender gives him a beer, and says, “Where do you come from, anyway?” The duck says, “I’m from around here. I work at the construction site across the street.” The bartender says, “Jeez, you should join the circus, you’d get rich!” The duck says, “What the hell would a circus need with a bricklayer?”
