The Esteemed Gentleman from Idaho, Senator Larry Craig, has had his reputation besmirched by publicity-hungry cops at the Minneapolis Airport, that homophobic Dan Popkey guy, and by a string of homosexuals, going back 20 or 30 years.
Larry Craig is not gay! Fer cryin' out loud! He's from Midvale, Idaho! A guy from Midvale likes huntin', and fishin', and cuttin' down big trees! Larry drives a pick-up truck... not a Mazda Miata! Gays come from places like San Francisco and Miami!
It's time to help Larry right the wrong!
If you live in Idaho or Washington, D.C., or if you visit mens' restrooms in airports in between, PLEASE help us put up these informative posters, to set the record straight.

PRINT IT OFF! PUT IT UP! DO IT FOR AMERICA!
(You may have arrived via STEVEHULME.COM.) I'm happy to share various observations; it might be a photo, or some music, or a report on an adventure, or just something I've been thinking about. My desire is that it might be of interest to you. (My opinions are always well-reasoned and correct. However, I allow others the latitude of having unreasonable and incorrect opinions. Haha) Comments encouraged! (Please keep it on-topic and "family-friendly.")

Agreement
Us Idaho folks are an independent lot. We rarely agree on anything. Especially when it comes to stuff like politics and religion... we bicker like schoolyard kids.
So, a recent development is especially refreshing.
The Republicans don't like Hillary. (For those of you who don't follow politics too closely, that's Mrs. Bill Clinton. Remember Bubba?)
I've heard it said she's a "polarizing" figure... love her or hate her.
Personally, I feel she might be a charming, nice person in a one-on-one setting. I've not seen any evidence of that, but I'm giving her the benefit of the doubt. If offered a chance to go to lunch with her - even at Bubba's favorite place, McDonald's - I'd politely decline. I KNOW I don't care for her politics.
But, I digress... back to the refreshing development.
Apparently Idaho's Democrats don't like Hillary, either.
In yesterday's Democratic Caucus, Obama got 80% of the votes; Hillary got 17%.
I've got renewed respect for Idaho's Democrats! (That, plus my disdain for Idaho Republicans in general, makes me solidly independent, I s'pose. But I agree with ALL of them on Hillary!)

The Perfect Valentine's Day Gift
There's an outfit called the International Star Registry (website here) that runs ads on the radio. They tell you that for $54 or so, they'll name a star after you or whoever.
That's all fine and dandy... but they don't tell you a couple details:
1) Nobody recognizes their names, except for you and them, and
2) Real astronomers have already named pretty much every star you can see.
Well, I've got a BETTER option!
Introducing...
INTERGALACTIC STAR REGISTRY!
For $44 (less than the other guys), I will name a star after whoever you want me to. But it won't be some obscure, lame star in the Milky Way.
We're starting with M31 - the Andromeda Galaxy. It's about 200,000 light years away, and invisible to the naked eye. But, believe me, it's an AWESOME galaxy!
And check it out - only two stars have been named so far. If you hurry, you could get that blue one, in the upper right-hand corner. Or, for $100, we'll name that really bright part, right in the middle, after YOUR loved one! You'll even get a certificate saying so!
Don't delay - if somebody else gets here first, you'd hate to spend the rest of your life kicking yourself, huh?
