St. Augustine, William Pryor, Amethyst and G-8 Summitt

St. Augustine: In St. Augustine, Florida -- the oldest city in North America and the home of Florida School for the Deaf and Blind, the city has decided to reserve the right to discriminate the gay group who wanted to fly the Rainbow flag on the famous Bridge of Lions. In turn, the gay pride committee and the state GLBT group sued the city for discrimination since they permitted the others like Flagler College, St. Photios Greek Orthodox National Shrine, The Civil Rights Committee of St. Augustine, the St. Augustine Lighthouse & Museum and the Broward Yacht Company to fly their flags on the Bridge of Lions. Shame on the city for wantonly discriminating on the minority group.

William Pryor: This is not good news for gays, this is not good news for Deaf people as well! This Republican Conservative William Pryor is expected to be confirmed for the lifetime position with the federal court of Appeals in Atlanta. This will enable Pryor the chances to water down the laws designed to protect, empower and serve the minority groups. How can the Conservatives do this to disabled communities and ethnic groups? Of course, they can. They do not care except for themselves. They will tell you that they care in your face but when it comes to private conversations, they laugh at our expenses. Fuck them.

Amethyst: AS many of you knew that I'm diehard fan of Amethyst who was largely abandoned by DC Comics for many years -- since 1988. She was abandoned because she turned out to be the most powerful figure, even beyond Superman, Wonder Woman, Green Lantern and Flash combined, something that the DC Comics was afraid of alienating the majority of readers who are ... males. So better to force her to die and surrender her "human corporeal body" to merge her soul with ... Gemworld than to alienate the male readers. That was years ago. But years of persistence by loyal fans of Amethyst, the DC Comics is not revealing anything about the return of Amethyst but indicated that she is tied into the major storyline that will affect several books during the summertime.

Since I stopped buying comic books, I had been relying on the rumors -- and some of them are mind-blowing for me to accept. It was said that the particular character will discover that her mother is none other than Amethyst whom Arion was trying to protect the secret for years from ... Mordru. But why keep the secret from Mordru? Because Mordru is the father of this woman as well! Wait a minute -- are you telling me that the same characters which battled each other and Amethyst burying Mordru alive for eons ... actually fucked each other? No, that can't be.

Either way, it'll be interesting to see how DC Comics will plot to bring my fabled character back into the spotlight as she deserved! Hope they will not trash Amethyst. Yeah, you are seeing the tattoo of Amethyst on my left calf which she was casted into the statue after she surrendered her corporeal body to merge with Gemworld to prevent Mordru and his minions from taking over the planet. Which is the probable reason why Mordru left Gemworld for Earth in his valiant efforts to conquer the universe.

The last time I knew of Mordru's whereabouts was that he got himself nailed into the "Rock of Eternity" which fed Shazam's powers. I expected Mordru to free himself to wreck everyone's peace and tranquility. This is the reason I loved Mordru -- he gave everyone few rounds of mindfucks to everyone else who tried to stop him from reaching his goals -- that is to be the God.

G-8 Summitt in Edinburgh: One well-known figure Bob Gedolf who were offended by the fact that the series of concerts to benefit the needs of Africa lacked the black musicians called for one million protesters to derail the concerts. Edinburgh is shivering because it will expect the Anarchists *and* protesters to wreck the town when G8 Summitt hits the town next month. My question -- there are MANY, MANY black artists and they could not find ONE for the benefit concerts? They are definitely lying through their yellow teeth.

Cheers,

What's Wrong With This Picture?

Frankly, I'm sick of Republicans who boasted that they overwhelmingly made the country red than blue, thus claimed that the people has spoken for. Actually, it is all bullshit. This 3-D image should put the whole thing to bed. That it is pretty much even. Most major cities are Democrats, they outnumbered the Republicans. The Republicans and Conservatives prey on people who are not college-educated or people who got married right after they graduated from high school.

If you look at the circle which consisted of Mormons who will do anything the Church tells them to. The square which consisted of Midwest folks who probably had not experienced a thing outside of their county. You can look at the rectangular which consists of Gulf States like Louisiana, Mississippi, Alabama, Georgia and Florida -- these states consisted of rednecks who still considers the Confederate States to be somewhat better than the Union. And last, you can see the rectangular that goes from Alabama to New York -- that consisted of Appalachia folks who interbred and probably left school at the age of 10 to marry their cousins who lived two doors down the street. These are easily the hotbeds for the Republican and Conservative to go after and mislead about the issues that might affect the nation in the long run. All you have to do is: "THEY WILL BAN BIBLES IN CHURCH! THEY WILL PERMIT GAY MARRIAGE IN YOUR HOME!"

Let's say for sure -- Democrats tend to have intelligent and diverse backgrounds from different groups. Republicans needs Conservatives to spread the false information on these unfortunate people that Democrats intend to ban the bibles from schools, to permit the gay marriage, to wreck the "values of America". You can see that on this demographic of our nation.

This should pinpoint that the Republicans are desperate for the numbers more than the rights itself -- they are more interested in tearing and dividing people in order to win the elections. They are not interested in unifying for the best interests of the people. It is all a game to them. Look at Nixon, Bush, Gingrich and so on. It may be the only consistent among the Republicans, they tear people for THEIR interests, not for everyone's interests.

In other words, when I generalize the groups, try to lighten up, m'dear.

Two Words: Pretty & Affluent

Look at this pretty girl on your left. It was reported that this teenager, Natalee Holloway, vanished in Aruba, a Caribbean island just north of South America.

Never mind that her high school, not college had a senior class trip outside of the United States. An urban high school senior class in The Bronx will never have that opportunity to visit Aruba. But I digress.

I'm amazed at the attention she is getting at this moment. Even all cable news networks mentioned her frequently. The local news channels mentioned it again, again and again. How sweet.

But if Natalee was not pretty or rich, will she get the international attention? Of course not. If she is deaf or blind, will she get attention? Of course not.

So when I heard that she vanished, tough shit. Boo hoo. I knew of a person who was killed in Cancun during the college break more than a decade ago, she was not mentioned in the national media at all. Just a blip in Honolulu's obituary page.

Nice to be affluent and pretty, is it?

Carl Urinated Sorenson About the Watergate Scandal!

Did I get your attention? I hope so.

Urination:It is silly that the Bush Administration accused Newsweek of harming the image of Americans across the Muslim world when it revealed that the soldiers, contractors and others defiled the Koran. Newsweek retracted. Now the reports from the United States Military indicated that the stuff did happen.

I love this comment:

In one case, a guard's urine splashed onto a detainee and his Quran. Southern Command said a guard urinated near an air vent and "the wind blew his urine through the vent" and onto a detainee and his Quran.

And they said it was an accident that the urine flew over. Ok-ay.

Carl: This afternoon, I got to talk with Carl Denney for the first time in years via the videophone. He looked good as ever. I finally got to meet Tuesday. I still think it is gonna be funny to say, "I'll marry Tuesday on Saturday." I got to meet Denney's boy. It was good to see him and his boy(s) running around the house. Thank God I ain't the father. I'd go insane with 3 kids running around and 1 on the way.

Chris: This comment has nothing to do with Carl Denney at all. In fact, I had an interesting encounter with the video relay interpreter today. At first, I met a guy in the chat room. Talked for a while, this guy impressed me enough -- he wanted me to play with him and his boyfriend sometimes this week. Name is Chris. He wanted me to come over for a dinner ... and if things go well, we engage in menage a trois. Told me to call him to arrange the date and all that. I agreed. Chris mentioned that his partner is Steve. I thought it was all right. Called the video relay service, they asked me who and what number do I need to reach. I said, "Chris and Steve and XXX-XXX-XXXX".

The relay interpreter smiled and said, "Calling Christine and Stanley". I interrupted, "No, they are Chris and Steve." The female interpreter said, "Wait, they are a couple, right? They have to be Christine and Steve." I said, "Excuse me, I said they are CHRIS and STANLEY. They are gay! So am I! Just shut up and listen to me. Their names are CHRIS and STEVE!" I gave her the infamous look that made her cower before me.

The female relay interpreter profusely apologized and got in touch with the couple. I could not believe that this woman was trying to correct me. It was nice to chat with Chris and Steve -- we made the plans. Blah, blah and blah. Then we talked a little about sex itself, what limitations and all necessary stuff. It was absolutely weird watching the female interpreter to sign the sexual words to me but that was part of her job. I felt grossed out. I quickly IMmed Beth that I can't believe I'm having the dialogue with this interpreter about the menage a trois to the couple. She went ROTFLMAO on me.

Usually, I can do this via the TDD where I do not have to see the relay operator's facial expressions and they never knew who I am. But I can see the interpreter's face, and her seeing me! That was too ... personal. Oh, yeah, the appointment is for Wednesday.

Note: The comments above has been corrected to protect the names at my wish.

Watergate Scandal: I'm sure you heard all about the Watergate Scandal, the Deep Throat identity and GW Bush's idiotic comments that he is curious to look in this subject -- I'm like, "Whoa, I learned about it in high school and you did not?"

Some lambasted W. Mark Felt for not following the procedures. Well, Nixon was corruptive. He will go as far as to bury the secrets in order to get what he wanted. Even go as far as to convince the FBI to keep it quiet. W. Mark Felt made sure that it won't be silenced. For that, he is the true American hero. GW Bush can kiss my fag ass. So does the idiotic Patrick Buchanan!

On the same subject, many news outlets kept on showing the face of W. Mark Felt on television, papers, internet and magazines. Like many gay men across the nation, my eyes kept on darting towards the guy on the right side behind the old geezer. W. Mark Felt's grandson. Is he HOT?!


Name is Nick Jones. I think he's going to be famous in the long run. Stay tuned.

Richmond's City Hall

When I was a kid, I always thought this building in Richmond was gorgeous. This 22-stories high building is known as the City Hall of Richmond.

But when I grew up and get to travel all over the nation -- I realized that this building is pretty cheap in comparison with this in Atlanta, this in Los Angeles, this in San Francisco, that in Winston-Salem, that in Miami, that in Seattle, there in Philadelphia, and there in New York.

Anyway, two years ago, the City Hall in Richmond was falling apart. IN fact, the rock as big as a ruler landed on the sidewalk from the building itself. It was time for a massive renovation. And I was stunned to see the new look of City Hall.

Nice but guess what? That won't convince me to go back to Richmond. I spit at thee.

Like Mother, Like Daughter

You know who the nutty Anne Heche is? Anne Heche used to be with Ellen DeGeneres before she went haywire and some farmer found her wandering around saying that she is God near Fresno, California few years ago.

Then few weeks later, after emerging from the psychiatric hospital, she emerged as ... a brand-new heterosexual woman in love with some freak who once worked for Ellen DeGeneres.

Like I care.

But after reading this article, it makes sense why she's nuts. It is because her parents are nuts as well!

You see, Anne's Daddy died of AIDS because he tried to be heterosexual by marrying Mommy, but ended up cheating on Mommy frequently and contracted HIV/AIDS. Sounds familiar?

And this Mommy claimed that you STILL can be heterosexual if you turn to Jesus Christ. This woman obviously did not learn a thing or two with their past -- many Ex-Gays quietly sneaked to gay bars after proclaiming that they are now straight. They often sneaked to the adult bookstores to kneel down and give men blowjobs then come home with sperm in their mouth, mouthed words: "Honey, I'm home. Gimme a kiss!"

Get a grip, fags. Accept the reality. Wake up and smell the coffee -- once you sucked a cock, there is no turning back.

Now I have to try to pull Jefff into accepting that I'm his butt-pirate. Any feedbacks? ;-)

Stuff To Talk About

Why.I.Hate.DC: This is fun blogsite to read. It is matter of time before James F touched a subject related to Deaf people on his blogsite. But heck, enjoy what you can on this blogsite. Many of them are so TRUE about the District but know what? Very few of us will ever leave the District, physically or spiritually!

Fuck the Cops: A friend of mine requested for the interpreter at the bail hearing, the cops decided to charge him for not being cooperative. See? When a Deaf person asked for the interpreter to ensure that no misunderstandings will occur, the cops decided that s/he is being uncooperative. As soon as he gets his case dismissed, I told my friend to file a lawsuit against the city of Falls Church for denying his repeated requests to have an interpreter during the hearing. This is one of MANY reasons why I despised the cops. I will never honor nor respect a police officer by any means. They do not deserve an iota of compassion or respect from me at all. They will be always viewed with suspicion and contempt on my part. Screw you, cops.

Mom's Alert: After reading why.i.hate.dc's blogsite, I finally got on the videophone and chatted with Mom, she alerted me that Bettie and Olin Creasy's son, Mark Creasy was somewhat "killed" in Alexandria off the bike trail. I quickly checked this entry that was written by James F, sure enough -- it was the same person, Mark Creasy. You see, Mark Creasy was 48 years old CODA of late Bettie and Olin J. Creasy of Staunton, Virginia. Both were Deaf but Mark is CODA (Child of Deaf Adults). In fact, Bettie was my houseparent at VSDB for some years. I regarded her as my surrogate grandmother. She spoiled me along with Kathy Hughes and Kim Akens, all Deaf as well. Making my life at VSDB very easy one.

When Olin died in 1990, Bettie was heartbroken and few weeks later, she died as well. Now her son was found dead last Saturday, because the death itself appeared not to be of natural causes, the autopsy is being pending. This is not the way it should be for the Creasy generations. They do not deserve this.

Now, look at my Mom, she alerted me. She is not the exact Internet Queen but she knew how to access the information across the region of who's who did this, that and there. She beats me to it. If you wondered how I acquired some information, blame it on Mom. She is the professional one. Now I can imagine seeing her sign, "STOP BLAME ME FINISH SICK OF YOU PEOPLE NOW LOOK AT ME ME SO EMBARRASSED NOW FINISH!!" Ahh, that's Mom, for sure.
