Constant Readers,
I've been doing radio, tv and local restaurant appearances (if you count dinner with friends) about Prop 8 all this week. I consider it my mission to let people know that the legal appeal is not a hopeless case.
But enough about me. Let's talk about videos that I like.
This one is kinda long, but it is SO worthwhile to watch. Dan Savage totally schools some Mormon who looks like Hater-Barbie's boyfriend, Clip-On-Tie-Ezekiel.
In this complicated world, it's nice to know you can always count on the nauseating adorableness of kittehs...(toward the end, there is footage of a cat attacking a toddler; I hate myself for laughing so hard)
This video attempts to answer the age-old question: what if two 007's had to fight one another? The editing is amazing. And frankly, the last line makes the whole thing worth watching.
This one is for shits and giggles. Brent Weinbach, a comedian and former teacher in Oakland discusses his experiences...
Have a great weekend!

Now, if you'll wipe that silly grin off your face, we can have a serious discussion.

Speaking of your television appearances...I just saw you on LOGO. You make the law sexy! Thanks for all you're doing.

There’s a great video I saw on San Francisco IAM on Proposition 8. It shows both sides of the issue and what it means for same sex couples in California. It’s a must see for those concerned about the issue.
I’d recommend checking it out:

San Francisco Iam also got a lot of other interesting video journalism.

Savage is simply brilliant, here. 100% articulate and accurate, in the face of sublime hatred and bigotry - from a spokesman who would have angered me to the point of blathering incoherently and popping a vein in my forehead.
