    What a cutie! Can’t beat the dimples! Whoa be unto you when he figures out how to use them for evil.
    You know… we get to see all these beautiful pics of the little kidlets, but I feel that I am finally emotionally, spiritually, and intellectually ready to see what Mama and Baba look like. How about a picture featuring the parental units? Whadayasay?

    Yer tellin me about using them for evil. I will rue the day. No thing and no one will be immune from his powers, etc.

    I should say that, as anyone knows who’s the Designated Family Photographer (always behind the camera; rarely in front of it), it’s easy to indulge my modesty. But hey! Who am I to disappoint! I sez, hurtle over the shyness and give the people what they want! Or Ansett what she wants!

    Behold, me in a frock coat. Okay, a PhotoShopped me in a frock coat, which I whipped up for a comment back on some post about a Beatrix Potter book.:

    And here’s the beloved’s most recent head shot:

    Glam, eh? Though she doesn’t always have that laquered look.

    Okay, but seriously. Here’s a nice straightforward lovey dovey family shot at the lil’ monkey’s first Dyke Day in SF two years ago. No laquered sweetie; no PhotoShop.

    Don’t know if that’s emotionally or spiritually or intellectually discombobulating, but there you have it. As my old friend and erstwhile housemate Tammy used to say, “Voila and viola!”

    Gorgeous. Thanks!

    I was just talking with a woman yesterday about why some folks put up pics of their kids but won’t show themselves. Your kid shots are fantastic, but it’s nice to see the family adults as well.

    Fan-bloody-tastic! Thanks. You both look like lovely people. The little ones look so much like their mom.

    Adorable! Thanks for sating everyone’s curiousity.

    Head shots are such a strange and interesting art form. I have one of Jill’s, which she rejected as unusable, framed on the mantel. The official ones, I mostly find so stilted and as you put it, laquered.

    What I really should have posted was:

    I’d like to think that captures the essence of “me” better than any “likeness.”

    Okay, or this!

    LD's No on California Prop 8 fundraising

    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.

    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.
