  1. This year I'm flying back to my Utah home and spending Thanksgiving with my niece and her 2 boys. They are currently taking care of my house while I'm in San Diego. I love roast turkey and the leftovers for sandwhiches. But, none of them like roast turkey. However, a local meat market sells breaded turkey steaks that we all love. So, this year we'll be having our usual turkey steaks. I wish these turkey steaks were available in San Diego. It's one of my favorite meals.

    I am a little nervous about flying back to Utah. During my last flight to my Portland home on Halloween weekend, I developed blood clots in my lungs. Doctor says I'm good to go but I sure don't want that to happen again.

    Keeping my onefinger is crossed and hoping that the doctor is right. ^_^

  2. I believe it was yesterday that Callipygian posted a rather nasty thread about the "other" site. I see this thread is no longer in the forum. I thought BoyToy didn't delete threads but moved abusive threads to the sand box?

    I don't see the sand box. Is it still in existence?

  3. I miss Lucky...I hope he is doing well in his "BT retirement"

    I'm not sure I understand what a BT retirement is. Lucky and I have had a very odd relationship over the years. I hoped (and was afraid) to finally meet him at one of the Palm Springs events. But, haven't had a chance to attend yet. Any info on his current situation?

  4. The formerly pacifist Oppenheimer's answer to all who resisted his efforts to recruit them to Los Alamos: "What if Hitler gets it first?"

    I'm very glad the USA has nuclear weapons. I also hope we never have to use them.

    But, perhaps the most "leathal" weapon today is the electronic / magnetic bomb. If one is detonated over a major city it would render most cars, banks, computers, power systems, and infrastructure inoperable.

  5. "The Boy Scouts of America (BSA) has unanimously approved a resolution to end the organisation's ban on gay adults working as leaders."

    But, it still allows the supporting organization to decide for themselves whether or not to allow gay leaders.

    The Mormon Church is one of the largest supporting organization. This decision still allows the Mormon Church to not allow gay leaders.

    The decision "sounds" great but has little teeth in reality. I don't think this will have a significant impact. Hope I'm wrong.

  6. Being born and raised in Utah as a Mormon, it doesn't surprise me with their reaction to the ruling.

    But, I was surprised today to read that the Mormon Church made a substantial donation today to the Utah Pride Center. The donation was to support the Pride Center's work with LGTB youth. I never would have believed that the Mormon Church would financially support a gay organization.
