If you live in California, you may have noticed the anti-gay Proposition 8 people's ads between my posts. Needless to say, I have no power over which ads get placed on my blog. These ads you may see are twisting the truth in many ways but this is one of the worst: they use pics of Obama and Biden thereby suggesting that Obama supports Prop. 8. Nothing could be further from the truth: Obama even appears in commercials against Prop. 8. I myself am stronly <b>opposed to Prop. 8</b>. I urge all my CA readers to go vote against it.<br /><br><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_pKksAU9vrsk/SQ-b_ts7knI/AAAAAAAAAsQ/2vnuqqwyuOM/s1600-h/NoOnProp8.jpg"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;" width=100% src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_pKksAU9vrsk/SQ-b_ts7knI/AAAAAAAAAsQ/2vnuqqwyuOM/s1600/NoOnProp8.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5264598008321512050" /></a><div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/1755378641509980830-2015078114558340975?l=reasonstobecheerful3.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div>Reasons to Be Cheerful, Part 3http://www.blogger.com/profile/08886932396500447646noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1755378641509980830.post-69726909083787051412008-10-31T16:59:00.000-07:002008-10-31T17:03:10.603-07:00<a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/__v8n5vdbz_k/SQub5EKGvBI/AAAAAAAAAGg/Et7jg4ny6hw/s1600-h/10-31-08.jpg"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;" width=100% title="Cartoon: Reasons to Be Cheerful, Part 3, 2008, CC Attribution-Noncommercial-No Derivative Works 3.0 Unported; Photo: bobster1985, CC Attribution 2.0 Generic; zieak, CC Attribution 2.0 Generic; flag: Fair Use" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/__v8n5vdbz_k/SQub5EKGvBI/AAAAAAAAAGg/Et7jg4ny6hw/s1600/10-31-08.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5263471994183531538" /></a><br /><font size=-3>Photos Copyright: bobster1985, CC Attribution 2.0 Generic; zieak, CC Attribution 2.0 Generic; flag: Fair Use</font><div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/1755378641509980830-6972690908378705141?l=reasonstobecheerful3.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div>Reasons to Be Cheerful, Part 3http://www.blogger.com/profile/08886932396500447646noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1755378641509980830.post-53658683729687614712008-10-31T15:21:00.000-07:002008-10-31T15:38:12.544-07:00<center><a href="http://www.chicagotribune.com/news/local/chi-studs-terkel-dead,0,3592218,full.story">Louis "Studs" Terkel</a> (May 16, 1912 - October 31, 2008)<br /><br><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/__v8n5vdbz_k/SQuF8RG9zEI/AAAAAAAAAGY/1H0wHG_3Q8E/s1600-h/252939979_15b137d0bb.jpg"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 400px; height: 300px;" title="Photo: trustynick, CC Attribution-Noncommercial 2.0 Generic" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/__v8n5vdbz_k/SQuF8RG9zEI/AAAAAAAAAGY/1H0wHG_3Q8E/s1600/252939979_15b137d0bb.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5263447859943820354" /></a><br /><font size=-3>Photo Copyright trustynick, CC Attribution-Noncommercial 2.0 Generic</font><br /><br><i>"My epitaph?
