I won't go into any supposed moral issues other than to say I think he's a little old to be just starting to raise a kid.

So Levon was truly born on a Christmas day.

Congrats to Elton and his partner. Tho I wish they could have adopted to reduce that population. To many unwanted children.

Who am I to have issues. The marriage part is none of my business.

There's more serious things happening out there in the world that I can worry about.

Are you asking for others to join you in posting dozens of daily links to news items?

That was last week wasn't it, but it was someone else complaining about the news you was posting.
It must be said though that it has improved since you now post some commentary about a link instead of just a link

Gerald · 12-28-10, 02:46 PM

Yes, even you could figure it out

Indeed.
As it says

No, I do not ask others to be involved in what I post, which also showed earlier, however, can I ask a question?, which is an entirely different thing!

Of course you can ask a question, and it is simply answered.
All FIREWALL or anyone has to do is go to any one of millions of news outlets and post a headline which is higher up the list of news stories than "two poofs have a surrogate child", since "two poofs have a surrogate child" is way down the news schedule of even those few news outlets that carry the story then it leaves Firewall a potential news item counted in the billions which makes your...."Can you give a concrete example, that you find important RIGHT now,"....rather ridiculous as of course he can.
