hooray for massachussetts and its legislature that today blocked an attempt to put an anti-gay, marriage amendment to a referendum----151-45---some people see it as a "watershed" event---we'll see---whatever, it won't make a bit of difference in this benighted state---the south will be dragged kicking and screaming into the future on this issue, the same way it was with race in the 1950s and '60s---and probably with about the same degree of success

Each of us is all the sums he has not counted: subtract us into nakedness and night again, and you shall see begin in Crete four thousand years ago the love that ended yesterday in Texas.
The seed of our destruction will blossom in the desert, the alexin of our cure grows by a mountain rock, and our lives are haunted by a Georgia slattern, because a London cutpurse went unhung. Each moment is the fruit of forty thousand years. The minute-winning days, like flies, buzz home to death, and every moment is a window on all time.
john northbrooke, c. 1570
