I normally won’t be getting political on this blog, but I came across this story and was absolutely floored. Whether or not you support gay marriage, you have to agree that the blatant disregard for due process, existing legal statuses and rights, and simple human decency is frankly appalling! The actions Sonoma County undertook here have no justification, and the end result was an old man who’d lived an amazing life was forced to spend his final months in forced isolation while all his material possessions – keepsakes collected throughout his life – were stripped away and sold off for mere pittances. Meanwhile his partner was forced into a care facility and held there against his will, denied the right to be there for his loved one’s final moments.
What justification could there possibly be for this atrocity??
Check out my friend’s blog, Long Bones. She’s been very successful losing weight, and I’m leaning heavily on her for advice and guidance as I follow in her footsteps on my own path towards weight loss.
Happy new year everyone!
My new year’s resolution is to keep up with this blog. I’m going to shoot for one entry a week (or more), with a minimum of one a month. I’ll be focusing on more tech-related how-tos mostly, but I also want to start posting some various product reviews, share with you all some of the great things (and perhaps a few of the terrible things!) I’ve found.
Ever been curious about the history of the Union’s largest state? A local radio station has produced a 50-part series of short spots covering the highlights of our 50-year history as a state to celebrate the bicentennial. It’s a good listen, and they’ve made it available as a podcast.
