When I got my new HTC Evo it was because of my work - being a systems admin damned near requires me to have an umbilical cord attached to our servers - and it does give me a fair amount of flexibility in the office or on site. At home? Half the time I forget that I own the damned thing, and I'm lucky if I remember to plug the little power-sucker into the charger. As for that comic, I don't know whether to laugh hysterically or throw a fit. I've known so many people who become addicted to their phone/pda/tablet and would rather text you than talk to you from across the coffee table. One of my misbegotten drag-children pulled that on me once - and it was the last time he did. After I ripped the iPhone out of his hand and tossed it across the livingroom I asked him, "I wonder if you would be a better conversationalist if I shoved that thing up your ass?... Meh, probably not." And they wonder why I'm "Mommie Dammit"...
Lord, make me an instrument of your peace. Where there is hatred, let me sow love; where there is injury, pardon; where there is discord, harmony; where there is doubt, faith; where there is despair, hope; where there is darkness, light; where there is sadness, joy. Grant that I may seek not so much to be consoled as to console; to be understood as to understand; to be loved as to love. For it is in giving that we receive; it is in pardoning that we are pardoned; and it is in dying that we are born to eternal life. Amen.

We cannot all do great things, but we can do small things with great love.

Churches say that the expression of love in a heterosexual monogamous relationship includes the physical, the touching, embracing, kissing, the genital act - the totality of our love makes each of us grow to become increasingly godlike and compassionate. If this is so for the heterosexual, what earthly reason have we to say that it is not the case with the homosexual?
It is a perversion if you say to me that a person chooses to be homosexual. You must be crazy to choose a way of life that exposes you to a kind of hatred. It's like saying you choose to be black in a race-infected society.
If God, as they say, is homophobic, I wouldn't worship that God.

Exactly. It's damn rude and totally inconsiderate.
