9 grand fathers ago..grand father samuel gorton .

First governor of PROVIDENCE PLANTATIONS of Rhode Island, and founder of Warwick, Rhode Island and Christian Transcendentalist philospher.

The Narragansette indians were impressed that the Gortonists had survived their ordeal with the Puritans. Gorton became a magistrate at Portsmouth and tried to bring about more fair land distribution. 1645. That year he published his Simplicities Defence Against Seven-Headed Policy. In this and other works Gorton wrote that all humans are essentially divine and that conversion is apprehending this inner divinity and being willing to follow its guidance even against human authority. Those who understand God in Christ find divinity in all humanity. The divine spirit is equally near to saints and sinners, and Christ offers freedom. Gorton accused New England Puritans of establishing worthless idols and distracting people with fasts, the Sabbath, sermons, battles, churches, and officers. If Christ is king and ruler, then all other authority and government is superfluous. Justice is not administered by an officer but by every brother, rich or poor, ignorant or learned. Gorton criticized the privileged status of ministers, who praise the able and learned while burdening the poor with obedience and sins. He opposed slavery. No external education could reform one's life as well as Christ could, and women may prophesy as well as men. Gorton argued that the penalty of sin is not in the future but is the natural and inevitable result of an evil action. Heaven and hell are within.

BROOKE ASTOR

Rose Lane lived to be 101 and was a close friend of mine. clear mind, heart failure was the cause of death. one time visiting rose and i believe she was 100, rose said..let me show you what i CAN do. with assistance she got out of bed and with the help of her walker she made fast laps around the room.

we talked politics. rose was VERY independent politically. we were both pushing for anthony williams for executive when he was just a bean counter. that's how we met. she would tell me about growing up and President McKinley was in office when you are born. she was raised in massachusetts and educated there. rose was an african american and a republican. she hated woodrow wilson. and i can understand why.

woodrow wilson, it is well documented and known was a vile racist. he used the words of an ignorant racist alot. nigger this nigger that. this is the truth and i knew this before speaking to rose about her life and times. she liked herbert hoover very much.

she once told me that the only down side of making to 98 is that there's nobody left from your age group to talk with. after she became home bound i would visit occasionally. she lived the rosary.

every halloween night i would visit her family in their large dupont circle townhouse and of course we'd have coffee, talk politics and laugh while i'm in drag. she was soooo funny. i miss that friend.

Advisory Neighborhood Commission 2C04 announcement

Dear Neighbors:

I am asking for your support in my effort to represent you as ANC 2C04 commissioner.

We need an ANC commissioner to insist on the delivery of city services -- someone who will demand police protection of our residents. We need a dependable vote on the ANC, where critical decisions on traffic, parking and development are made each month.

Communication is extremely important. I am open, honest and quick to respond to our neighborhood's concerns. You will have my email address, phone numbers, blog URL, see me out and about in the neighborhood. You will have my constant attention. I will be a responsive advocate for every person in the community and our public space. I will not however, spam you.

Let me give you an example of an issue that needs to be addressed. We have two major buildings in this Single Member District(SMD), 1330 7th St and 1301 7th Street. The park where Mr.Crowder was killed is across the street from our Single Member District(SMD). There is a public safety emergency and I don't see the police at 1301 or 1330 7th st. I want to continue working on this problem with your authority. As an ANC Commissioner I will have greater ability to interact with police and government officials so that our community needs will be respectfully addressed.

We have a great mix of people in this Single Member District. People who rent, people who own homes..taxpayers all. I want to represent every citizen in this community. Please support me with your signature to get on the ballot and your vote in November so we can all win.

Thank you. Your neighbor, Richard

WAR COVERAGE SCORE: F MSNBC

they've lost me. i cant watch that network. they're terrible. they dont even know what the hell they are doin. so i look to CNN for 90% Fox 10%. MSNBC really screwed themselves by messing with the schedule and the sudden war didnt help them either. i mean who can watch that idiot don imus when you want to hear some sane reporting first in the morning? when Fox is on the volumes off unless there's an urgent need.

terrorists foreign and domestic

http://israelemb.org fighting the war on foreign and domestic terrorism isn't easy.

it was so nice out lastnight, i walked 20 blocks and noticed more police all the way. normally, on sunday you never see a cop. but lastnight they were out and about. writing tickets for every infraction possible. like: not having your wheels turned correctly while parked; parking too close to the intersection; blocking the fire hydrant.

first sunday crime emergency

working in georgetown and living 25 blocks east on the same street i get out and about alot.

i would hope that the motor vehicle cell phone law would be enforced during this crime emergency. i cant believe all the people who drive and talk on the cell phone in the district of columbia. not only are they careless it is against the law. if you go to anywhere in new york state you will see the law is enforced and nobody is yacking and driving with a hand held appliance. NOBODY.

and i wish somebody from MPD would explain to me the function of 501 new york avenue nw.
just be honest with us. is it the VIP holding cell or what?

i have seen police on segways in front of cafe milano interacting with the public. do you think we might see any in other less high profile locations? like at 7th and O in front of 1330 7th St?

action time: crime emergency

currently we are not seeing enough police in this neighborhood. i know what the problem is, motivation...there are not enough young short skirted women living around here to provide incentive eye candy for police patrolling. the uniformed division of the secret service for example can be found all over dupont circle, adams morgan and georgetown. we never see the park police or the interior department police over in these parts either. we dont need more police...we need better deployment and supervision. we dont need to throw 8,000,000 dollars at the problem. just get a champion instead of a bureaucrat and straighten the situation out. if some neighborhoods are not glamorous enough for an under sexed policeman i say TOUGH just do your freakin job. too bad if you have to file a report or do court time...THAT'S YOUR JOB.

when you get up at 6 and hose everything down by 7 you're in pretty good shape for a hot day
The high today is forecast to be around 100. The heat index -- a combined measure of heat and humidity that is supposed to reflect how it feels -- could reach 102. Tomorrow's high should be about 98, but higher humidity could push the index to 106.

a sign of summer

last night at midnight i went to call Pillow, my old female cat, in for the night i was startled and laughed when i saw a baby raccoon. this is not the first time we've had them around. actually, about 15 years ago there was an opossum hanging in the tree and we are 7 blocks to the white house. back in the segregated days this area was called blueberry hill by the locals. today the chamber of commerce calls it mount vernon square. anyway, i tried to spook the raccoon and was briefly successful. the raccoon got too close to my old Pillow and the cat took a swipe at the raccoon and started after the raccoon. the raccoon climbed the fence and old Pillow lost interest and came into the apartment. i watched and listened and yes there are 4 raccoons in all.

so this morning i was watering the hibiscus, basil, curly willow, geraniums, potato vines, palms, moon flowers, morning glories, rosemary, parsley and oregano when a green praying mantis hopped from one branch of the hibiscus to the other. WELCOME TO SUMMER in the city. by the way, the tomato plant didnt make it...too much rain maybe.

PERIL LURKS ON FIRE ISLAND
A STORMY welcome might await Sens. Chuck Schumer and Barbara Boxer (D-Calif.) when they arrive at Fire Island Pines for a July 22 fund-raiser. Fashion mogul Perry Wolfman will open up his bay-front mansion so the Democratic Senatorial Campaign Committee can fill its coffers with gay dollars. Admission runs from $1,000 to $5,000. But both Schu- mer and Boxer oppose same-sex marriage, which has some Pines activists planning to meet their boat with a noisy protest. "If they don't respect our right to marry, they should not come into our community trolling for money," said one.

to sir with love

here's a clip from the volatile 60's. back then(1967) we were just really seeing many racial crossover videos in the general public for the first time. there were (voting)poll taxes for black americans(yes, you had to pay a tax to vote in the south) and literacy tests for african americans(which you had to pass as a gateway to vote) voting in the south.

but lulu is perfect with the angelic collar and all :-) dressed like a little puritan chick.

another funny part of this is that at this particular time i was 16 years old and had no idea or clue that there were millions of other gay people like myself. the only colored people i'd seen were the housekeepers who came on the bus in the morning or lived in. it was through the civil rights marches that i first met other people who happen to be homosexuals. "gay" people hadn't evolved yet. i heard there was a bar where queers went and never went in but i got close to the door...LOL. there was alot of LSD and pot on the scene. we never bought any pot, a friend of ours charles lodge would ship suit cases to his mother from viet-nam and she would bring it over. he was a merchant seaman by profession and i had never seen so much pot. but we were good kids. we never sold a stick and consumed it all ourselves. i will add a funny story about mrs lodge soon. she was quite a character.

ps. i didnt 'luv' my teachers...even back then i thought teachers are nothing but lazy bureaucrats.

edith massey sings

during the summer of '76 we had mt saint helen eruptions, the tall ships, a presidential election and edith massey was singing in provincetown at the crown and anchor's backroom. she performed Blueberry Hill, Lipstick on Your Collar, Rhinestone Cowboy, You Give Me Fever and several others numbers. after the show she signed a love note which i still have on the refrigerator today. what a sweet sweet lady. here's a brief interview and she sings two numbers at the end:

dr harris lee aka DR LOVE

back in 1977 at The Boatslip in Provincetown this song was a summer hit. dr lee was a practicing physician who had a dramatic house down in the westend near the old helena rubinstein house and across from stanley kunitz and alisa asher's garden just west of point street. dr lee was gay and always had the company of the blueboy magazine types around. dr lee was also generous with prescriptions and i was a patient. LOL. so, when the dance floor was full and this song came on ...all us locals would be shouting DR LEE instead of DR LOVE. what i also remember was how these guys on the dance floor would put soaked rags in their mouths. i never got to do that because it didnt look like fun. and to this day i dont know what that was. it was a really wild time.

1 day after the nys court decision

if you expected fairness from the new york state constitution you can forgetaboutit. that thing was written by insane heterosexuals. i dont expect much from the nys constitution and therefore not disappointed or surprised by the decision. however, i think i will place a curse on the republican party now.

not a day goes by when i dont give thanks for my recovery. on this day many years ago i graduated from betty ford rehab. oh yes, it was way back in the famous late 80's when everybody and their grandmother was going to BFC. but recall folks, it's a confidential hospital so i cant tell you who was in my classes. this is our recovery anniversary date. sometimes when i'm asked where i was born i tell them rancho mirage, california. i am indeed lucky and blessed. http://www.emc.org/body.cfm?id=94
