Some Gay Couples Adopt to Molest, State Rep Says

I don’t think there’s much that needs to be said about this.

Correction: I feel like I should point out some horribly bad wording:

“We also have seen evidence that homosexual couples prey on young males and have, in some instances, adopted them in order to have unfretted access to subject them to a life of molestation and sexual abuse,” she said.

“In all cases to paint with a broad brush strokes is unfortunate,” said adoptive parent Dr. Christopher Harris.

Harris is a pediatrician by day and a single gay adoptive parent by night.

March 24

March 24 – Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Apparently I share a birthday with the Exxon Valdez oil spill, Tommy Hilfiger, Star Jones, and Mac OS X 10.0.

Probably far too many things

  • USB Key
  • Cell Phone
  • Palm
  • iPod and headphones

Add a laptop, and this increases to:

  • Laptop and laptop bag
  • Power cord
  • Mouse

I think some convergent devices are in order.

Grrr

My roommates are drunk right now.  I’m in Duffield Hall, working on problem set…

Imagine the Marvin the Martian voice going “I’m so very angry right now.”

I think this makes Jake Gyllenhaal more awesome. I rather like the first photo in there.

Not the worst way to spend part of a morning

So I had to wake up at an ungodly early hour this morning, 8:30am. Hey, stop laughing, it’s earlier than I’ve ever woken up this whole semester :P Anyway, the whole point of getting up this early was to meet my project partner to work on our project, but it turns out he didn’t wake up until I had called him.

So what do I do? I went to CTB, ate a bagel and yogurt and drank some tea, all while reading the New York Times on my Palm. Pretty good way to kill 45 minutes I think :)

Hear that sound?

It’s the sound of my free time slowly being whittled away…

Due this week:

  • ECE314 Homework
  • ECE314 Prelim
  • CEE323 Prelim
  • ECE320 Homework
  • ECE315 Lab
  • ECE315 Homework
  • Project Team Midterm Paper

Unfortunately none of these things are trivial :(

EDIT: The astute among you will point out that instead of posting on my blog I should probably be working, to which I respond “shush you.”

Possible ways to misconstrue a CNN Headline

CNN.com – She’s the homecoming king – Mar 7, 2006

CNN ran this article with this headline on their front page: “Lesbian beats 3 guys for homecoming king crown”

Now if you’re like me, you read this headline and went “wait a minute, what?” because you were tired, read it wrong, and got a bit of a laugh from your resulting imagination. Try imagining these:

  • Lesbian beats up 3 guys for homecoming king crown
  • Lesbian beats 3 guys with the homecoming king crown

If I were a more talented individual I’d probably try photoshopping these, but alas, I’m not.
