JWG's Necessity July 1, 2012

Wherein JWG and René are surprised that "being married" is a non-issue — for them.

Today, in “The New York Times”, I read the wedding announcement of two young men. I stress “young” as they are in their mid-twenties. How fortunate that they can begin their lives not having to hide who they are. Opportunity. We who have seen change tend to forget that there are those among us who did not have to abide the horror forced onto us by so many. Yes, this horror has not totally been obscured. It exists. Yet, they who seize the opportunity to marry are today’s pioneers. They are the role model for their peers. I wish them success.

The comfort René and I now enjoy is accepted by many. It surprises us how being “married” is a non-issue.

With the budget "we" just passed? That can't be!

"Why are Smithtown teachers continuing to pay for school supplies out of their ownRead More pocket?" Since when? Ever see the big list of supplies kids get in their folders at the end of the year for them to bring in next year? I think you're talking about the wrong school district.
