Tidbits of cortex floating off into space: 
 
Since when did government sanctify anything?  If I remember it is up to  
churches to uphold, deem, whatever the sanctity of anything.  I mean,  
noone says that corporations are sanctified when they are given tax  
breaks.  Noone has ever called (seriously) highways holy.  So when  
municipalities give legal benefits to unmarried couples, where is the  
attack on sanctity?  Make up your mind. 
 
Children are not accessories which no self-respecting woman or man can do  
without (parse that one - ha!)  I am starting to agree with certain people  
that if the parents, or at least one parent, can't devote a huge chunk of  
time to children, they should not have them.  I think people need to start  
deciding what they want from life.  One might seem to be able to "have it  
all", but you really can't, and you really shouldn't strive for such  
things.  So nyah. 
 
Maybe I should start a band.  Everyone in New York seems to have one... 
Thought up a lyric based on my life experiences... or actually, a couple. 
 
Sample: 
 
Who do you think you are? 
This is not that kind of bar. 
What did you think when you ordered that drink, 
Who do you think you are? 
 
Another: 
 
Oh, Savannah... 
With your gnats, and your bats 
and those huge water rats 
I'm so glad we have parted our ways... 
 
About as good as the sf premises I've been spitting out.  I think I'm  
going to stick to nonfiction prose.
