ReplyJason Collins is clearing the way for so many young gay athletes who never dreamed they could live an uncloseted life & pursue a career in sports at the same time. I wish him all the best - & eagerly await the day when news of a gay athlete is simply no news at all.

ReplyBeautifully said, Shane, as always. People like you are bravely leading the way - but I am so hopeful that someday soon, in our lifetimes, what you do & how you live & who you love won't be seen as "brave." Rather, it will just be seen as "normal."
Keep fighting the good fight, my dear, & you know I will always be here cheering you on & doing the same.

ReplyBlue Door is amazing. It definitely deserves to be atop that list!
I'm a big fan of Yelp. I use it to rate any restaurant I've been to at least twice, good, bad, or neutral, & it really comes in handy when traveling. It's a great way to find out what's worth trying in any given area.

ReplyThank you to Patch for sharing this great piece about a beautiful woman & wonderful friend. Her memory will always be for a blessing to those of us who loved her & to a world that lost her too soon.
My own tribute to Elissa is here: http://goo.gl/1QMxQ It's one of so many written by those of us who are left struggling to figure out what to do in a world without her.

On the Blog Post Eight Important Lessons for Women from Steubenville

ReplyWhile I appreciate the reminders to be aware of our environment & be responsible drinkers, etc., I, like Kristen, believe it's even more important that we teach our boys & men NOT TO RAPE. Women get raped because MEN RAPE THEM, even when they are being responsible or sober or safe or any other number of admirable things. No woman is EVER at fault for being raped, EVEN IF SHE IS DRUNK. No woman is EVER at fault for being raped, EVEN IF SHE IS SCANTILY CLAD. No woman is EVER at fault for being raped, EVEN IF SHE HAS WILLINGLY SLEPT WITH A LOT OF MEN IN THE PAST. The lessons for women coming out of Steubenville are to teach our sons to be better men, men who don't rape. Period.

This is absolutely not an appropriate response to this article. This was, it seems, a "feel good" exercise as much as an exercise in safety - and yes, safety makes people feel good.
