Forwards and backwards

Sorry about inflicting more US politics on people. So, we have the promise of something better ahead from the next president*; I can hear W's team firing up the shredders in the White House from here. And, yes, that's the main thing. But I'm really sad to see so many bigoted proposals (California Proposition 8 and its companions in other states) getting through. I can only hope that this is the last stand of the morons, and that sexuality will finally get its proper place alongside gender and skin colour as something that people who want to call themselves decent human beings are obliged to recognise as being totally unacceptable as a basis for discrimination.

* although I will confess that I can't help sharing emperor's memory of the disappointment afforded by Tony Blair....

I don't know if you ever saw it - but there is a pub in Reading named The Upin Arms, which was established - or at least re-named - 1998.

I thought it apt.
