“I have more to be grateful for than I have to be resentful about. We have much more support in Wichita than we have rejection and castigation. If Wichita and our community did not want us to be here, I wouldn’t be here. But the vast majority of people in Wichita support, on a quiet level, what we do, which is help women and families.”

Damn you, Rob Thomas!

For making me have to like you at least a bit for saying the following:

“I’ve heard it said before, many times, that if two men or two women are allowed to join into a civil union together, why can’t they be happy with that and why is it so important that they call it marriage? In essence, what’s in a name?…A civil union has to do with death. It’s essentially a document that gives you lower taxes and the right to let your faux spouse collect your insurance when you pass away. A marriage is about life. It’s about a commitment. And this argument is about allowing people to have the right to make that commitment, even if it doesn’t make sense to you. Anything else falls under the category of ‘separate but equal’ and we know how that works out.”

I still won’t forgive you for Smooth though.

“Just back from MSU commencement. Got an alum award. Can’t believe my own graduation was 28 years ago. Yikes!”

Time flies when you’re catching perverts in sting operations on national television!

“People just have to sit through a short commercial and then we give them every episode in very high quality that makes stealing it seem dumb.”

Matt Stone on streaming South Park online.

This is exactly what I’ve been trying to tell people for the last few years and yet another reason to love Matt and Trey.  They GET it.

“[The fast food in LA] is fantastic—Start at LAX, which is where all things start: You’ve got the Cinnabon right there in the terminal… and then on Sepulveda, right outside the airport grounds, you’ve got the In-n-Out Burger, which is just…oh man; It’s the Lutèce—it’s the 21 of fast foods. I like to ram two of those down right before the red eye… It’s a nice feeling. Let that beef fat get in there, and then get into your pores and share as much as possible with your seatmate.”

“I did not know of any other way I could be. I did not know what was inside me or how I could redeem what was hidden there. There must be a key or person or thing, or song or poem or belief, or old saw that could access it, but they all seemed so far away, and after I drifted further and further into self-absorption, I closed the evening with this desolate thought: There are few takers for the quiet heart.”

“Every once in a while, you know, I wake up and I’m like, “Damn, I’m Coolio!”

Coolio during his entrance video for Celebrity Big Brother.

Yes, freakin’ Coolio is in the house. WTF?!

“His work on HIV/AIDS is laudable, but that doesn’t change the fact that he thinks I am a second-class citizen and should be denied fundamental rights guaranteed to me in a constitutional democracy.”

“I got to be the straight-ironed guy. Not the curly. I don’t know their names…Alvin? Theodore?”

“Fierce. They say my music’s good for all queers ‘cause I make your ear ring. Get it? Piercin’ all ears.”

Eminem on his new song Number One.  Actually, I don’t get it.  Isn’t he the guy with two pierced ears?  I like Em but I’m glad this is only a mixtape track and not a single.

“If I were man enough to get a tattoo, I’d get one of a burrito wrapped in foil across my chest.”

“If it’s not made in France, it’s sparkling wine and that bottle is from New Jersey!”

“When no one cares, you just count souvenirs and they glisten with your tears.”

Frank Sinatra, No One Cares. It’s so obvious to see how Junior Boys were influenced by this album on So This Is Goodbye.

“A popular television performer and recording artist, Perry Como produced numerous hit records with record sales so high the label literally stopped counting at Como’s behest.”

—From the Wikipedia entry on Perry Como.  Now THAT is swagger.  LOL
