Let's go for the record!

There is no ice or snow on the deck today. This is the first time that has been true since December. Yeah, there are still a big pile of snow in the front yard and a couple spots of snow in the back. The forecast for tomorrow is a high of about 50F and Monday might get up to 60F. Perhaps I can get my bicycle out. But we're so close to beating the record for the most snowfall in a season I think we should just go for it. One three-inch dump and we're done. Then we don't have to deal with the record again. I don't want to go through such a harsh winter and not have a record to show for it. That's like getting the silver medal at the Olympics.



Ah, this is a poll to enjoy. The poll was sponsored by the Human Rights Campaign. It found that Americans view gay people more favorably than Evangelical Christians. The numbers: How gays are seen -- 53% favorably, 18% unfavorably. Evangelicals -- 42% favorably, 28% unfavorably. And 62% believe it “is inevitable that gay marriages will be legally recognized by the Supreme Court.”



Same-sex marriage has begun in England and Wales. Weddings started last night at midnight.



AG Eric Holder had declared that all those Michigan same-sex weddings from a week ago will be recognized by the federal gov't. Even if the state gov't won't.
