Homecoming Games Are Annoying

I think the weather doesn't like the city of Loveland for some reason. Every home game has been rained on, and the Homecoming game (which we won, by the way) was played in rain for the majority of the 1st half and in 50 degree weather. Hey, at least I had an umbrella.

Anyway, the Homecoming Dance was last night. I went, I danced, I took pictures. Amazing, no?

And a little story about said dance. My sister went to get her nails done at this salon place next to a dry cleaner's down the hill from where we live. The salon is run by this Chinese family. Of course, my brother has a comment for this. He says- "Asian people are really good at three things: dry cleaning, eyebrows, and nails." Trust me, there's a compliment somewhere in that generalization. I think. However, if you are personally hurt by this quote, please forward all hate mail you might possibly want to write to this address: blahblahblahperson@blahblog.net. I know you want to, so let him have it!

And here's something funny for the day:

10 Reasons Why Gay Marriage is "Wrong"
1) Being gay is not natural. Real Americans always reject unnatural things like eyeglasses, polyester, and air conditioning.

2) Gay marriage will encourage people to be gay, in the same way that hanging around tall people will make you tall.

3) Legalizing gay marriage will open the door to all kinds of crazy behavior. People may even wish to marry their pets because a dog has legal standing and can sign a marriage contract.

4) Straight marriage has been around a long time and hasn't changed at all; women are still property, blacks still can't marry whites, and divorce is still illegal.

5) Straight marriage will be less meaningful if gay marriage were allowed; the sanctity of Brittany Spears' 55-hour just-for-fun marriage would be destroyed.

6) Straight marriages are valid because they produce children. Gay couples, infertile couples, and old people shouldn't be allowed to marry because our orphanages aren't full yet, and the world needs more children.

7) Obviously gay parents will raise gay children, since straight parents only raise straight children.

8) Gay marriage is not supported by religion. In a theocracy like ours, the values of one religion are imposed on the entire country. That's why we have only one religion in America.

9) Children can never succeed without a male and a female role model at home. That's why we as a society expressly forbid single parents to raise children.

10) Gay marriage will change the foundation of society; we could never adapt to new social norms. Just like we haven't adapted to cars, the service-sector economy, or longer life spans

(Note: I didn't write this. But if you are somehow offended by those reasons [mainly because you're sill arguments against gay marriage were sarcastically defeated by these ten points] then please write all hate mail to my brother again. He didn't write it, but it would entertain me.)
