This is another one of those Presbyterian posts, so if you find those boring, feel free to skip it. Rather than list all my previous PCUSA posts, I've collected them here.Anyway. If you've been following these posts for any length of time, you know about the debate in the Presbyterian Church USA regarding the ordination of LGBT folks. Blah, blah, blah, all the usual stuff: filing charges, witch hunts, church trials, etc. Those that are against LGBT ordination regularly issue their threats of schism, threats of secession, threats of taking their toys and going home. Yadda, yadda, yadda. A ...

I was more concerned and scared of Ike. Fuck the fake ball, ...

McCain picks Governor Sarah Palin of Alaska as his running mate.Young, female, blah blah blah... oh, wait!Her electoral chances may be harmed by the fact that she was placed under investigation in Alaska by state lawmakers at the end of July.She sacked a public safety commissioner and the allegation is that she sacked him because he had not fired a state trooper who is Ms Palin's former brother-in-law, and who is in a custody battle with her sister.She says she has "nothing to hide" and is "cool" about the investigation.*snort* Well, it's not like there's a Republican out there ...

I tried something new this week: I joined The Evil League of Evil the land of music education. I am now a church choir director. (Okay, so I'm barely on the fringes of music ed.
