As Far As I Can Tell


This weblog has a new look, and I�m going to try and keep it updated. I need to be able to keep a record of my life; my memory just isn�t cutting it anymore.

I got a piece of mail today urging me to vote Yes on Proposal A here in Kalamazoo on November 6th. It�s written with a lot of pseudo speak like Keep Kalamazoo�s equal rights laws! STOP homosexual special rights laws!. What they�re proposing by keeping the current law, is to keep a law that blatantly allows discrimination against homosexuals.

It sucks that the commission for this proposal has the money to send out this sort of pamphlet to everybody in town. On the back are quotes directed toward different groups like Catholics and African-Americans, explaining to them why they should hate gays through religious talk. �Jesus didn�t condemn anyone, but he did condemn behavior.�.

So to anyone who is registered in Kalamazoo to vote, take the time to do so on November 6th. Vote NO on proposal A.

I finally got the tire on my van fixed today. It’s been flat for weeks now, and I bent a lug wrench trying to get it off. John Wagner helped me pump it up with his air compressor. The good news is that it’s holding air okay, though I’ll need to keep an eye on it. The bad news is that it’s destroyed enough that Discount Tire won’t fix it for me, and won’t put my spare on because it’s destroyed too. What I need is a new set of tires, but they’ll cost me $400.

This Halloween wasn’t as exciting as ones past. I think the fact that it was located in the middle of the week contributes to that. There was a party, on the Friday before (thanks Dave), but it just wasn’t as out of control as before. Maybe it’s because Dave’s mom or Dan wasn’t there. Maybe it was because Bill acting like himself instead of a character.
