			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>I couldn&#8217;t help by laugh when I say this the other day &quot;<a href="http://daywithoutagay.org/" target="_blank">Day Without a Gay: Call In Gay</a>&quot;. It made me think of the Robin Tyler quote: </p>
<blockquote><p>&#8220;If homosexuality is a disease, let&#8217;s all call in queer to work: &quot;Hello. Can&#8217;t work today, still queer&quot;;&#8221;</p>
</blockquote>
<p><a href="http://www.digitalfairy.com/wp-content/uploads/2008/11/callingay.jpg"><img style="border-top-width: 0px; border-left-width: 0px; border-bottom-width: 0px; margin: 0px 15px 0px 0px; border-right-width: 0px" height="103" alt="callingay" src="http://www.digitalfairy.com/wp-content/uploads/2008/11/callingay-thumb.jpg" width="145" align="left" border="0" /></a> Though it doesn&#8217;t look like that was the inspiration. In general, it is somewhat a good idea, but will I &#8216;call in gay&#8217;, will any of my colleagues &#8211; one might but he wouldn&#8217;t be volunteering he would be looking for a lil&#8217; twink to hook up with. Good luck to them in getting volunteers to &#8216;call in gay&#8217;. I just don&#8217;t get that galvanized by the whole prop 8 issue, though I seem to be in the minority. In my case, I am just a jaded ol&#8217; queen that thinks relationships suck because men are jerks. </p>
<p>I am lucky in many ways, I work for an employer where I can be openly gay (heck it feels like we outnumber the str8&#8242;s many days) and in a profession where many often assume you are gay by default. I&#8217;m spoiled and lucky (I once worked at a homophobic college and it was one of the most depressing experiences of my life &#8211; I was so miserable that many days all I did was cry.)</p>
<p>Also, read their FAQ, my favorite </p>
<blockquote><p><b>Will <i>this</i> get me on Oprah?</b>       <br />If it will get you to help out, then&#8230;yes&#8230;you&#8217;ll be on Oprah, Honey.</p>
</blockquote>
<p><em>*Side note&#8230; Not my usual self right now. For the last week I have been working 16to18 hours a day and am just exhausted.</em></p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>I admit, I didn&#8217;t pay much attention to the issue of Prop 8 in California. I never seriously thought it would pass. I can&#8217;t remember a single time in history that a constitutional amendment was passed to take away rights that had already been granted. The very idea leaves a sour taste. It is hurtful and disgusting. I still find it doubtful that it will live long &#8211; court battles and ultimately future elections will likely rid California of this dark shadow. But that is beside the point, I was watching Countdown last night. Keith can tend to be a little overly dramatic (more of a drama queen than most guys I know), but last night&#8217;s special comment was poignant and moving. He talked about Prop 8 and it will definitely go down as one of his most memorable comments both for its sincerity and the power with which it was conveyed. </p>
