Posted on entry Why We Immunize ::: February 21, 2009, 10:49 AM:
I've been immunized more than a few times... loss of paperwork/proof of shots meant that I had 'em done as a baby, boostered in eighth grade, had 'em redone before college mk 1, and had 'em redone again before college mk 2. (I am not good at keeping track of proof-of-immunization paperwork.)

I've also been done for smallpox (mid-seventies, rural Pennsylvania) because we went out of the country for vacation to the, er, wilds of Mexico. My parents were paranoid sorts.

I had a tetanus shot this past summer after I ran a nail through my boot and well into my foot (but not through it) at work. The doc's office let me come in at the end of the day, had me show 'em my foot, and poked me. It was not a problem. I do live in a very rural (dairy cows/horses, not at all urban) part of the country, though, and tetanus shots here have always been handed out pretty freely.
Posted on entry Sympathy for the Clintons ::: February 12, 2008, 08:19 PM:
I've been voting in presidential elections since 1988 (George Bush Sr. presidency). This is the first election in which I have actually *wanted* to vote for a candidate. Assuming Mr. Obama makes it to the general election in November, I will vote for him.

I am not the same color as Mr. Obama. I am not the same gender as Mr. Obama. I do not believe in the God that Mr. Obama believes in. I do not even belong to Mr. Obama's political party -- I'm the loyal opposition. But if he makes it to the ballot in November, I will vote for Mr. Obama. He sold me with the speech he gave some time ago on the role of faith in public life. (It's here if anyone's interested.)

Michael: You can pull up quite a few Hard Gay episodes from youtube, many of them subtitled.

Itsy-bitsy spider, "take one down and pass it around" for myself.

My cousin sings "eensy-weensy spider" and "Ninety-nine bottles of beer on the wall, Ninety-nine bottles of beer, If one of those bottles should happen to fall, what a waste of alcohol!" which is kind of catchy.
