Indeed, ridiculous. Now we get to sit back and watch the news media chew this one up, and the pro-gay marriage crowd will point to this as evidence of heterosexual abuse of marriage (which it is), while trotting out long time committed gay couples for all of us to contrast. Which raises a question--am I the only one who thinks the media has an agenda here? Cause all I ever see are "lifetime companions". No HINT of a swinging gay scene of multiple partners. Nope. Not a whiff. Just committed, boring old folks. Yep. That's all.
The Blog: A compendium of thoughts on politics, world affairs, economics, pop culture and social issues, from the center right perspective of me--Bryan McGrath--a University of Virginia graduate who spent a career in the world's greatest Navy keeping my mouth shut about politics and social issues (ok, publicly keeping it shut). Those days are over! Pull up a chair and chime in where you will. Keep it clean, civil, concise and relevant.
The Fish: The fish is a "coat of arms" for the blog, symbolizing three formative influences in the life of the blog founder. The first is his experience at the University of Virginia--symbolized most importantly by the fish itself, or a caricature of a "Wahoo", the fish we have acquired as an informal nickname. Additionally there is the sword, the sword of a Cavalier. It is not wielded in a threatening manner, as this is a civil blog. But it is there, should it be needed. Thirdly, there is the influence of 21 years in the Navy--symbolized by the anchor on the Wahoo's fin (and again, the sword) . Finally, there is the bowler, tuxedo, and monocle, symbols of a refined, intellectual conservatism, or what I seek to encourage here.
The Policy: I take FULL responsibility for what I write. I will not be held responsible for the content of my comments section--as long as it is civil and passes my own inscrutable sniff tests, it will appear. If the comment offends you, that is on you.

Well, there's wife material and there's drunken, lost weekend, shag-fest material. I guess this fool can't tell the difference.
Am I the only one who thinks he looks like Beaver Cleaver's older brother, Wally?
