My evening

[valarltd]

It was the kids' choir concert tonight.

The school is also the local polling place.

Ever the troublemaker, I approached the two little old ladies with the "Marriage in Arkansas, One man, One Woman" table an petition. "You're lovely ladies, but you're wrong," i said very calmly. As I hustled the 4 kids to the cafetorium, Mudd signed it. I looked over my shoulder and said "Our wife is going to give you hell about that, darlin'!" The nice old ladies just stared.

And nobody told me my son was the policeman in the YMCA segment.
(Bunch of dyslexic kids. i lost track how many made their Cs backward.)


I found my copy of Space Cowboys so capturing, here I come.

Mudd signed their petition? Huh? Does he agree with it?

Mudd's logic whish is not our earth logic

1) if a DOMA doesn't get on the ballot, there will be no chance of defeating it. Better in public than in smoke-filled back rooms.

2) he's worried that eventually marriage will be legislated entirely out of existence, and a family will be defined as "people who live together for the moment." Around Chez Mudd bonds of kinship still carry some weight.

He thinks that the states will eventually go to all civil unions and leave marriage to the religious folks. For him, marriage is a religious thing.

Well, at least there's some sort of logic to it beyond "Fags and dykes are evil, and if we let them marry, then we'll see people marrying their dogs next." I mean, I can't say I follow Mudd's logic particularly, but at least he's on my side.
