I r teh winnar!
Last week, during the Rays extra inning game against the Angels in Anaheim, Brighthouse Sports Network ran a contest on Twitter to see if someone could guess who would drive in the winning run. I guessed Reid Briggnac cause had been so hot the entire game. And sure enough, he bunted in the go ahead and eventually winning run in the 10th. So I won. I got my package today in the mail.

Brace yourselves...
Out of sheer boredom I popped in to watch a few minutes of Maddow and caught sight of a new phrase she's coining and has already taken off on twitter. (Links: 1, 2)
She coined this to point out Republican hypocrisies. For example when two Republicans came out and said they had affairs, Eric Cantor said about each incident when asked "we must pray for [their families] but what happens to [their] job is up to [their] constituents." But when this whole Wiener thing started, Cantor said "we must pray for his family but what happens to his job is up to his constituents, but I think he should resign." And it's the stuff after the comma that is inciting hatred from Maddow and her TV viewers that sparked this new phrase as they think he's a hypocrite and has double standards.
They're acting holier than thou when they have worse double standards and hypocrisies. It has sparked this tweet from me. Spread the word on our new phrase:
IOKIYAR = It's OK If You're A Republican

One year anniversary of a tragic event
Alex Blaze Giddens
February 2001 — May 22, 2010
One year ago today, I lost my best friend. My miniature schnauzer, Alex Blaze. I miss you my buddy. It's been a tough year. Filled with even more heartache. All I can hope an pray for is a better rest of 2011 and that I never have to go through a dog dieing like that again.
Here are a couple of videos to remember Alex:

RANT: Homophobia should not and does not mean bigotry
Homophobia does not mean "Bigotry or hatred against Homosexuals". Why? Well let's break the words down.
Now I don't know about the rest of world that doesn't like the sin known as Homosexuality, but I certainly don't have a fear of homosexuality. And you can't change the meaning of words to be "fancy". Phobia does not mean hate, phobia does not mean bigotry, phobia does not mean "religious belief against homosexuality", phobia does not mean ignorance. Homophobia should and does mean "fear of Homosexuality".
And don't give me this crock of a excuse of "well ignorance breeds fear". That's a crock of a reason to mess with the dictionary. I don't see you calling Arachnophobia "ignorance and hatred of spiders". I don't see you calling Claustrophobia "ignorance and hatred of small spaces". No, you don't. Why? Because that's not what they mean. They mean fear of x. So you and every other user of that word need to go back to elementary school (or primary school for you UK'ers) and learn breaking down words again.
Now everyone here knows I'm a Christian. The motto that's always been taught to me is "Love the sinner, hate the sin" and I try my humanly best to follow that. I don't hate homosexuals, I just have a hard time respecting those that attack Christianity and it's followers at every chance they get. Most of us are not out to make your lives miserable. We actually trying to better your life in accordance with God's laws. We do not hate you, those I will admit there are some that do, but if they are true followers of Jesus Christ, they will not and do not hate you. I'm personally tired of being demonized based on my faith by LGBT advocates who think they know what they're condemning but don't. I hope you see this soon. May God take care and bless you. — Aaron
