There’s a lot of hoopla going about regarding Prop 8. And, with good reason. Marriage is a right all adults should be entitled to. I say that without qualification or exemptions. Normally, I might say “all sound-minded adults”, but I refuse to believe there’s ever been a situation in which someone got so drunk that they suddenly decided getting hitched was a good idea. Sure, some people have used that excuse, but that’s what annulment is for, and “not being of sound mind” (i.e. too drunk to fuck) is a legal excuse in every court of American law that I’ve studied. So, it’s a moot point.

It boils down to this..

Your freedom of religion ends where mine begins.

(this is the first part of a series of posts I plan to do about the interesting nuggets of wisdom I receive in my Truth Box)

A few months ago, I installed the “Truth Box” app on my MySpace page, just to see what happened. For the most part, I get a horde of misspelled proclamations of lust and sexual desires. While flattering – I have a girlfriend (Misi) whom I love very much, so I’m afraid your desire to “suk” my “cokk” will go unrequited. About 1 out of 30 “truths” is a horribly misspelled and grammatically incorrect proclamation that I’m “a fag”, “a homo”, or most recently “a skinhead”.

Today, I’d like to focus on perhaps the most idiotic

History was made last night. It was a moment that, for better or worse, no one in this country (perhaps the world) will ever forget. It’s one of those very few “where were you….?” moments. Anyone trying to downplay the importance of what happened last night simply doesn’t “get it”.

I cried during Obama’s acceptance speech. Several times. I’ve never felt more patriotic. Never felt more in tune with this country I call home. This, coming from someone who ripped on the American Way practically nonstop for the past 8 years. I’m feeling patriotic. I’m feeling at one with my fellow Americans.

I don’t want to hear about “red states” and “blue states”. It’s all bullshit. It’s all a way to

I saw the following photo today, and could barely believe the idiocy (click for larger version) :

That is to say – not only did someone actually think Barack Obama’s middlename has ANY bearing on his ability to lead, but they made a bumper sticker. Ahh but wait! Someone else thought “hey! that’s a good point” and stuck it on their car.

For my take on Obama, I direct you to this highlighted bit from a recent performance I did. This is my final word on the matter, and I thought it was important to note, so it was uploaded as its own piece, separate from the full performance :

Figured I’d take the day off from working for other people to work for myself and do a little redesign of (my blog) Mitcz.com. I’m liking it so far, but it needs a little fine-tuning, which I’ll have to get to at a later time, I think.

Still, it’s definitely an improvement over what I had before.

29 was a rough fuckin’ year. But, it’s started to ramp up a bit better these last few weeks, amidst other fucked-up shit that’s happened. I can only hope 30 treats me better than 29 has, though it wouldn’t have to set the bar very high, I s’pose.

1 week from today, we find out who we’ve gotta put up with for the next 4 years. I haven’t seen a projection yet that’s given McCain so much as a fighting chance, but I’m about to breathe a sigh of relief just yet. How cool would it be to have Obama in there? Man, that’d be so fuckin’ badass. To actually like the president for a change? Oh sweet merciful hell yes. That’d put my 30s off to a very good start.

Now, for some semi-short rants that I’ve been meaning to get off my chest…

I decided it was time to throw together a little more recent demoreel of my comedy, and thought I may as well start working on a redesign for RevMitcz.com. I doubt i’ll get to actually redesigning the whole site for awhile, but it was fun to make a neat little Flash intro using some of the advanced skills I’ve learned in recent years.

If you’ve got 2.5 minutes to spare and want a quick look at some of my recent comedy material, go take a look at RevMitcz.com. Just sit back and watch. No need to click anything

So, I set a new personal record for longest comedy performance on Thursday night at Shooters. 30 fuckin’ minutes. I’d only written about 5 mins of new material, and TK said “you can do like 15 minutes. If you’re killing, I’ll let you keep going”. At around 21 minutes, I’d run out of the material that was immediately on the top of my head, and TK yelled from off-stage “you’re good, man. keep goin’!”. So, I launched into a newer bit that probably was a little rustier than it should’ve been. In hindsight, maybe I should’ve used the piercings/tattoos material. Ah well.

I’d like to record a comedy EP sometime in December, and while I was worried I wouldn’t be

Rev. Mitcz calls the KKK a bunch of pussies while reviewing a history of black people accomplishing amazing feats and how it relates to Barack Obama, and leads an audience in proclaiming Sarah Palin as a worthless cunt. After that, it gets a little weird..

So, I had a spare hour or two tonight and decided it was time to refresh the look of my system a bit. I made a quick new desktop, then I went crazy on making some icon replacements.

Here’s a quick shot of those..

So, now when I’m switching applications under normal usage, I have two icons with ME on them. And in my dock, there’s 3 (since I put an alias to my website files in the dock too).

I don’t know why I’m putting my geektasticness on blast, but it felt like the right thing to do at the time.

cause, really, if there’s anything geekier than making custom icons that resemble the originals, but incorporate your own image, it’s …
