Extra, extra, read all about it.
Will the Globe stop turning soon? Will that be good for my newspaper? Seems unreal to think that the Boston Globe might stop printing. But times they are a changing, big time. I really don't think the Herald has what it takes to be Boston's #1 paper for news. It's much more of a rag. Only time will tell I guess.
In other news news, YAY IOWA! Three states where it will be legal for gays to marry. And Vermont, the state that really started it all with Civil Unions, is on the verge of possibly becoming the 4th state to allow gay marriage, but it would be the first to actually vote it into legality rather than having the courts order it. I would really like to see more states actually vote to allow it, but either way, I think it's here to stay. I think as people get used to the idea, and see that it's no big deal, more states will allow it, but I do think it will take time for some of the more conservative states to change, if they ever do on their own. But then again, I think it took nearly 100 years after emancipation for interracial marriage to be legal in all 50 states, and that by court order if I'm not mistaken.
Speaking of gay... we did enjoy the musical Godspell today. My only complaint is that at times the music overpowered the singers, who were really good. Great set, fun interpretation, although I didn't like the opening sequence, it didn't make much sense to me. And I was disappointing they didn't carry Jesus through the isle at the end. They did that in the high school production I saw, and it really was awesome. But other than that, it was really enjoyable.
My brother got my father some 'shamwow' shams. He gave me two. I'm really not sure what I'm supposed to do with them, since I've never seen the commercial.
It's really really windy tonight. Feels much colder than it is. brrr. Time to curl up with a good movie.
