I "do”, think this is a bit much

Giant headache - NFL - Yahoo! Sports
This may sound a bit odd but I feel bad for Michael Strahan. His wife of six (6) years had just won a hefty $15.3 million divorce settlement not including child support and their mansion.
I’m not condoning any adultery or dishonor of marital vows but she seems to have [...]

Teaching tolerance by example

There’s an article in the NY Times about a Mr. Andre Jackson a senior at East Side High school in New Jersey (sp?) and this school’s recent decision to black out a picture of him and his boyfriend in all the student yearbooks distributed this year.

Purity Balls

At first I thought they were debutante balls (for the younger crowd) just with a new politically correct name. Wrong.
These “Purity Balls” are balls where your father pledges to do his best to help keep you a virgin until marriage. What tha doozey?

Act like you know

Irony

I think God either playing jokes (joking myself here) or making a point…
Seems at though Kobe and Shaq had their daughters six minutes.
Didn’t this already happen with Tom and Brooke on the 18 of April.

HEARTBROKEN!

Love. Is. Complicated.
