Nevada "Games"
Meghan just LOVES Nevada!!! She thinks it is so cool that the gas stations and some of the stores have video games for her to play. I didn't quite understand what she was talking about until yesterday when she asked for a quarter to play a game and I heard her father say she had to be 21 to play those games. She thought that was pretty dumb to put games for adults instead of kids in the stores. Can't wait until she reads the signs for the Bunny Ranch and wants us to take her there to see the "bunnies." :)

YES On Prop 8!!!
Having tolerance without condoning. We can love someone while still maintaining and advocating our standards and beliefs.
Unless Proposition 8 passes, California society will soon undergo a profound change in its basic understanding of marriage and family life. That will affect everyone in numerous ways. Over time, greater acceptance of nontraditional marriage will be demanded of all people. This could impact the ability of any religion to teach and practice its beliefs.
Proposition 8 will not hurt gays. In California, the law provides for marriage-related benefits to be given to civil unions and domestic partnerships. Proposition 8 does not diminish these benefits.
Failure to pass Proposition 8 will hurt children. If gay marriage remains legal, public schools will put it on equal footing with traditional marriage. Children will likely receive “age appropriate” information about sexual relations within heterosexual and homosexual marriages.
Failure to pass Proposition 8 will hurt churches. The court’s decision will inevitably lead to conflicts with religious liberty and free speech rights. Society will become more and more hostile to traditional beliefs about marriage and family.

This is also a great message to read:
Marriage as a human institution is constantly evolving. But in all societies, marriage shapes the rights and obligations of parenthood.

I'm a liberal Democrat. And I do not favor same-sex marriage. Do those positions sound contradictory? To me, they fit together.
