« First Bill Clinton Award for Insufferable Narcissism as Regards an Important National Issue | Main | What If? »
June 21, 2004

1) Find Expired Horse. 2) Pummel. 3) Repeat.

Bill from INDC lands an interview with everyone's favorite courageously-independent Kerry partisan:

AS: ...There’s plenty of hope, but we need courageous leaders with the will and dogged determination to strategically understand and attack the threat.

INDC: Like George Bush?

AS: No, George Bush is a homophobic poopie-head.

Anne tips me to check out a new children's book, Andrew Sullivan's Big Book of Gay Occupations, and wonders if the great range of careers listed therein aren't evidence that, in fact, there's rather less Nazi-esque discrimination against homosexuals than Sullivan contends.

I'd make another point: What a ridiculous waste of time. Sullivan's so obsessed over this issue he spends his time collating a list of occupations of "married" couples. What on earth could this possibly prove?

Oh yes: that we should not "discriminate" against a "soil scientist," or a "special education advocate," or a "recycling coordinator."

Sure, we're all in favor of discriminating against homosexuals, but we have to draw the line when this laudable effort crosses the line into discrimination against a "Krispy Kreme manager." That would be invidious discrimination.

Krispy Creme manager. So that's what the kids are calling it nowadays!

My favorites:

Activist...just be man enough to admit that you are unemployed and still living with your parents. It looks like that double major in German philosophy and medieval english literature isn't all that its cracked up to be.

Minister...of what????

Posted by: WindyCity on June 21, 2004 03:43 PM

The title "Minister," unless qualified by a specific office (e.g. "of Foreign Affairs") refers to a member of the band "Ministry."

Posted by: Aaron on June 21, 2004 03:48 PM

"Packer".

Let's face it. Andrew Sullivan is one of those people who's let his hobby take over his life., and just can't stop talking about it. Where for some people its monster trucks or golfing or stamp collecting or breeding dogs, for Andy its whatever it is that homosexuals do that makes them homosexual.

I am surprised we did not see, butt-pirate, or any bone smugglers. I would have certainly listed something more interesting than ACTIVIST. Maybe something like, Left wing jackass, so self absorbed with my owne pathetic needs to be accepted, that I am willing to piss of every straight person in America. Once again , as a gay man , I am much more concerned with lowering taxes, and staying safe from Islamo Fascists to bother with worrying about gay marriage. What idiots.

Careful Marty. Keep talking like that and they'll report you to the Union.

Posted by: lauraw on June 21, 2004 05:43 PM

other occupations listed:

muscular therapist

night receiver

pipefitter

This isn't Christmas Eve fare, and I thought about waiting until the 26th to post it, but supposedly an amateur detective has solved the Zodiac killer mystery. And the horrific Black Dahlia killing. He says it's the same person! I always thought of them as very far apart in time but I think Black Dahlia was mid-fifties (nope, 1947) mid and the Zodiac murders began in 1968 so it's possible it's the same killer.

The killer, if it's the same man, would have been in his 20s when he killed the Black Dahlia and his 40s when he did the Zodiac murders. Possible.

A little caveat: I saw someone snark on Reddit, "The Zodiac case gets solved more often than Wordle." There are a ton of coincidences here, supposedly, like a Zodiac cipher being solved by the name "Elizabeth." Elizabeth Short was the name of the so-called Black Dahlia.

If you don't know about the Black Dahlia, don't look it up. Just accept that it's grisly on the level of Jack the Ripper.

Yes, the named suspect resembles the police sketch of Zodiac.

Here's a podcast with the amateur sleuth who claims he cracked the Zodiac.
