Pacific coast beach scene

Step one: with the sweet memory of a gentle, bathwater-mild midwestern lake still fresh in mind, test the surf with mama and gramma–but oops! It’s fed by the “California current,” whose surface temperatures are in the vicinity of 60º F.

Beach scene A: testing the frosty Pacific

Step two: skeedaddle.

Beach scene B: immediate reaction thereto

(Wanna see how bad it is, in cartographic splendor? Feast your eyes on Pacific temps here, Atlantic temps here.)

    Hey! What’s with the Giants t-shirt! Apparently I have not supplied you all with enough A’s paraphenalia. Must rectify this situation soon. The lil monkey must be properly dressed…

    LD's No on California Prop 8 fundraising

    Goal Thermometer no-on-8-cutie



    The time to step up is now.



    See that cute kid there on the right? My son. The day, this July, that my partner and I got hitched. It was our fourteenth anniversary. Help.

    Featured election news/analysis:

    Ellen DeGeneres: "My Political Point... And I Do Have One," on 24 Sept., 2008 at her site.
    The wording of Prop 8 is tricky. It’s like if someone asked you, “You don’t want dessert, right?” But you do want dessert so you say, “Yes,” which really means you don’t want dessert. And if you say, “No,” which means you do want dessert -- it sounds like you don’t. Either way, you don’t get what you want. See -- confusing. Just like Prop. 8.



    So, in case I haven’t made myself clear, I’m FOR gay marriage. And in order to protect that right -- please VOTE NO on Proposition 8. And now that you’re informed, spread the word. I’m begging you. I can’t return the wedding gifts -- I love my new toaster.
    For those that missed it, here Ellen is chatting with McCain (2 Sept., 2008) on the topic of gay marriage.
