Yes, hh, that would be the one. I first came across it in college, at the same time the original Star Trek series was airing, and it definitely made me stop and wonder.
Somehow I think there was more coming into play than the basic criteria. Could it be a reward for the significance the new Freedom Tower represents or in the magical 1776 foot height? I think Chicagoans are asking that question very often.
Yes, there is a wide range of gay men out there, but I also think this makes another point. If we want society, in general, to be more accepting of gays, maybe we first need to be more accepting of each other. Yes, there are people who may rub us the wrong way or are not someone we would want to hang around with, but to be intolerant of them is making you no better than the Westboro crazies.
You're right. A-Rod never lived up to the hype. The one World Series they Yankees won with him in the lineup probably would have still been won without him. He wasn't Mr. October, like Reggie Jackson, and he wasn't as consistent as Jeter. I think the Yankees wasted a lot of money by securing him and got a black eye in the process.
Very enlightening. Some of the original spellings had indicated the words might have been pronounced differently, but it was intriguing to actually hear the difference.
Can this World Series get any more bizarre? Game 3 ends on an obstruction call and then Game 4 ends with a runner getting picked off of First. I can't wait to see what happens in Game 5 now.
Most people believe there is something greater than themselves for a couple of different reasons. One, it makes them feel better and it also gives them hope. It's not that most of them allow it to control their lives, although a few do, but looking at the wonders of the universe it's hard to argue that there must be something greater than ourselves.
Celethiel also addressed this in her topic ;Something we might find interesting.' It looks as if it will be an interesting documentary and, hopefully, it will do some good to bring this issue into the open.
You're right, Lou. I didn't adress what happened to Dirk, but since I've been encouraged to write a follow up, it will come out then. I'm not sure how soon I'll get that out, since I've been tied up with a project, but hopefully before the end of the year.
