My dad’s cousin (I think that’s the relation) is in this story. I feel strangely special and frustrated at the same time. Special because well, a family member of mine (whom i really like!) has been quoted in national news… and frustrated because I had no idea that he was spokesperson for the Defense of Marriage Coalition. (president of it? according to my stepmom.)
(Oregon county bans all marriages - period)
Go mixed feelings! Ra ra!
At least it’s not as tumultuous as the whole “let’s go invade Iraq” thing that had me wanting simultaneously to move to Canada, and go see my brother who’s now out there…
P.S. Who bought me a subscription to Nintendo Power? My brother (top suspect) says it wasn’t him. Was it you? If so, xie xie. :)

don’t all come at once. At some point the US will decide to invade Canada for its fresh water and oil (sssh don’t tell), and at that point everyone in North America will be just as bad off as now.

Benton County, whose county seat is Corvallis, is home to Oregon State University and is seen as a bastion of liberalism.
Eh? Funny. Everyone else says “bastion of conservatism”… which is why it was so shocking in the first place.
I certainly did not get you the subscription, but I would definitely like to know what “xie xie” means.
