I can never hear the term "family values" without thinking of friend David, dying from AIDS complications, whose conservative family had not even bothered to visit him in the hospital. He was totally alone except for a few friends, and during a visit by one friend towards the end he struggled to get words out. The friend couldn't believe his family hadn't come to see him even at the end, and said something to that effect. He took in what the friend was saying, but had a hard time responding. He made a great effort to sit up, grabbed the friend's hands, then with difficulty whispered, "Family values!" and collapsed in laughter. He died a few days later.

OT: Another round of bomb threats called into our schools this morning.

This is like the 10th time at this point.

These fucking Hags for Liberty have a lot to fucking answer for.
