Hey Brip, I was taken aback by your stinging comment about the Onion. I was like "Jeez, take it easy, it's all a big joke." Then I went on and read the article...what the hell were they thinking? It's not funny and I can't imagine who greenlighted it. Terrible...

Man, you said it would be bad - but that Onion article was just horrible. I haven't really been reading them lately but I don't think I'll go back either.

Wow, that Onion article is pretty dark. And not remotely funny at all. Very odd. But the good news is that it's just one of eleventy billion posts on a very all-the-rage-in-1999 website. The prop 8 stuff is more upsetting for being real life.

I'm surprised you went ahead and posted that link to The Onion. It was really horrible. I wonder how many of your readers (like me) clicked on the link to see what you were talking about, bringing more traffic to them.

Good point, Mary, and I broke the link.

Good luck with your "Gordian Knot" of a problem. Just the way Alexander the Great solved his problem by slicing the knot and going on to conquer the known world, maybe you will sever the knot of your problems with a bold stroke, and go on to establish you and your family in a new job, a new place, and a new life And as for the Onion piece, like Writer's Coin, I wouldn't have thought anything could be that awful if I hadn't seen it. Not that I read the Onion that much, but I did occasionally, and now I won't. Whoever let that get into circulation is not a nice person.
