A “two banana emoticon.” I like that.
“Adequately describing the way I feel about going to work this morning is going to require a two-banana emoticon.” At least.
Yes, there was once a 2BE that was quickly banned because it was deemed offensive by some. You know liberals – always ready to take offense at something.
I believe the complaint was that it depicted “banana rape,” though, as I recall, the two bananas in question appeared to both be consenting (quite happily so, based on the expressions on their little faces) adult bananas. Alas, rather than offend anyone, I removed it. We aim to please.
Here in the Northeast (or at least in my neck of the woods), the heat wave has broken. It was a mere 87 degrees yesterday, and it even felt a bit on the chilly size with a nice little breeze and low humidity. And right now it’s only about 61. Quite a nice night for sleeping. No rain, of course, but that’s supposed to end today as well, though I don’t know if that will do a whole lot of good for the grass or not. OK by, me – I’m saving a lot of diesel by not having to cut it. Hopefully the pool will fill up a bit, though, as the level really dropped a lot yesterday.
Several marriages took place across NYS yesterday, as some couples got waivers from the 24-hr waiting period so they could get hitched ASAP. The first ceremony took place at a second or so after midnight in Niagara Falls, and here, two fellas that have been together for 18 years were among the couples that were finally able to tie the knot.
Happy people. What the hell is wrong with that?
Of course, there were protests.
On the day hundreds of same-sex couples throughout New York shared their vows, groups in Buffalo, Albany, Rochester and Manhattan organized to protest the new law.
That list doesn’t include Syracuse, I’m proud to say.
Oh well, this joyous (downright gay, you might say) weekend is behind us (no pun intended), so I guess it’s time to get ready for work. And there aint enough bananas in all of Ecuador to adequately express how I feel about that.
