Since the 4th. of July is a day for celebrating all things American, it only seems appropriate to post the following video. After all, expressing one's patriotism, like expressing one's love for a spouse, shouldn't be restricted on the basis of one's sexual preference. With that in mind...I'm happy to say on this Independence Day that I, too, am "totally gay for America". Now where the hell is my hot dog!? ...

New Computer Blues... The Station was down this morning, so Ryan had to power up the transmitter - and we had a bit of a "glitch" - lost sound on the new computer. AJ fixed things from afar, and the second half of the show was cool. Tomorrow we've got the Catasauqua Pool Party... with Webb Wilder and Joe O's Band. I'll be at the WLVR tent earlier in the afternoon "CELEBRATING THE FOURTH ON THE FIFTH".Happy Independence Day. Here's the List:"SPONTANEOUS APPLE CREATION" - CRAZY WORLD OF ARTHUR BROWN(*)"QUESTIONS 67 & 68 / LISTEN" - CHICAGO TRANSIT ...

WHEN IN the Course of human events, it becomes necessary for one people to dissolve the political bands which have connected them with another, and to assume among the powers of the earth, the separate and equal station to which the Laws of Nature and of Nature's God entitle them, a decent respect to the opinions of mankind requires that they should declare the causes which impel them to the separation. We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable rights, that among these are Life, ...

As Andoni well-noted, not only has a man of note died today, but a symbol has also died. Former Senator Jesse Helms (R-NC) was more than just a figure of anti-gay bigotry in the political arena. A lot more. When... ...

It is a happy accident that I landed in Bloomington, Indiana, the day before the Fourth of July. I woke early this morning—5am—made some phone calls, ate breakfast at the Bloomington Waffle House (They have had the same morning wait staff for at least the last 10 years), and then wandered around downtown. Downtown was rather festive, even though I was early—the band wasn’t scheduled to start playing until 9, and I was there by 8:15. After poking around a bit, I donated some money and ate some purple pancakes to support the PanCAN. It was about then that ...
