You're a bad man. You're a very bad man!
Irreverent, independent, and often snarky partnered married gay boomer and doggie dad who is tired of moral pontification by hypocritical conservative assholes and hate filled religious bigots.
Based on some recent incidents, let me reiterate: If you are the owner of a photo that appears on this site and wish it removed, you don't need to get all legal and send threatening letters and takedown notices; just email me with the photo's URL or leave a comment on the offending post and I will gladly remove it.
In other words…
Retirement
(That's actual number of calendar days. It's a whole lot less if you remove weekends and holidays. And even less than that if you calculate the actual number of days I have to come into the office!)
I know I could live more comfortably (bigger home, etc) and probably cheaper in other states. But then I think about living somewhere else, and I think about my tax dollars in that somewhere else state going to reprehensible and stupid laws that do nothing but vilify and create cruelty, and I just couldn't stand it. California is like golden handcuffs for liberals like us.
