Posted in comments to Huffington Post today

I felt inspired and posted a comment under a story about Mike Huckabee's comments on The View this AM.

I don't like how this is being used as a wedge to drive between the black community and the LGBT. What about all the black LGBT people? Does discrimination have to be mutually exclusive? How many of us LGBT people "passed" out of fear and intimidation of being found out for who we truly are?

I was in the dept. store on saturday after the rally here in an AA neighborhood. While I was at the counter, a middle aged AA woman was just glaring at me, and my friend...I kept thinking to myself, what is going through her mind? I have no idea, But I had on a teeshirt that said "Stand up to H8"...Did she not agree?

Since the election , many times when I see an AA woman, I can't help thinking to myself" What have I ever done to you that you should vote against me?".>I know that is not a totally rational thought, but if i was to give in to my lower nature, you see where I"m going> Unfortunately, a lot of people too often give in to their lower natures. and that's the problem...The gays and the black community should be allies, not enemies...WE all suffer from oppression and it's not a contest. And for those that dare to compare(talk about slipperly slopes) I have been spit on, called names, beaten up, ostracized, ridiculed, denied employment advancement..shall I go on?

Liberals are...drum roll...Pacifists and JEWS!

Proposition 8

Here in California, they have decided to put civil rights on the ballot for the masses.

Here's a comparison of the attitudes:

First...the Yes



Now the No...

Preserving the world in Kodachrome(tm)

Since I got my Nikon f4, I have had a revival in my interest in phtotography. But since I started school, I haven't had a lot of time to take pictures. Coincidentally, I have been favoring using Kodachrome(tm) to shoot with, especially since it's no telling if and when Kodak might discontinue making this lovely film. So..Here are some of the first fruits of my labors. KC tends to scan rather densely, the actual slides are exposed perfectly.

My Friend Ted Hall

My friend Ted Hall, one of the most talented film/music sound mixer geniuses in the business, passed away on July 26th. Ted supervised and engineered dozens of feature film projects for me over the years and should get 99.9% of the credit for the way these projects, dvds, laserdiscs,etc turned out. He worked on almost all of my MGM projects, Paramount Paramount for me and others and for many more over the years. He will be sorely missed, not just professionally but personally and the world has lost an audio genius and amazing human being at too young an age. If you have a dvd of a movie and it sounds good at home, Ted gets a lot of the credit. He,under the tutelage of Bruce Botnick, was instrumental in changing how home video sounded.

Back to something that's good in the world.

FISA BILL

Senate just rubber stamped the house bill that guts the 4th amendment as well as give the telcos immunity. Don't let the congress think we have short memories.

By any other name...
