If you don’t check the comments regularly, there are some interesting thoughts and ideas coming from readers and e-mail on the same-sex banning ammendment entry.

DallasBlog reports that the City of Dallas will announce it’s first free munincipal Wi-Fi Hotspot Friday.

Dallas officials will announce the first free public wireless Internet HotZone at Tietze Park in northeast Dallas on Friday at 10 a.m.
Dallas Park and Recreation Department summer camp participants will join city of Dallas officials in the debut of wireless Internet service at the first of seven Park and Recreation locations. Wireless Internet service at city parks and other facilities will allow computer users to share a high-speed Internet connection without cumbersome wires or delays caused by dial-up access. As a wireless site, Tietze Park guests can access the Internet to get city information, send e-mail or pictures, or just surf the Web without having to plug cables into a network.

I’m still hinting to Waxahachie council members to get our city on the band wagon.

Saw Christine Hand live at the Refuge Saturday night with After Hours Improv.
Great show by both. Check Christine out. Great accoustic sound and great voice.

From the e-mail files:

“The US Senate’s failure to pass the Marriage Protection Amendment this week is gutless and appalling.”
RealClearPolitics – Articles – Conservatives Are Losing on Gay Rights:

“After the Senate’s rejection of the Marriage Protection Amendment Wednesday, supporters tried to portray it as nothing more than a temporary setback. “We are making progress,” announced Kansas Republican Sam Brownback, noting that since the last vote two years ago, 14 states have approved bans on same-sex marriage.”

So here is my question, which several people have asked me recently and I think deserves an answer – if the ban on same sex marriages is to promote the sanctity of marriage, why are we not passing congressional ammendments making divorce illegal.
I would say that the fact that 50% of American weddings (Christian and non-Christian) does more to damage the sanctity of marriage than letting some dude marry another dude. I don’t agree with their actions, but what good will a constitutional ammendment really do?
I guess if it’s passed, tomorrow we won’t have to worry about sodomy any more. People will just give it up and change their ways… just like they’ve done with illegal drugs, alcohol during prohibition, abortion and every other time we’ve tried to legislate morality.
