Reposted on my Facebook with my comments (below) Thank you for sharing!

“I received this in my e-mail today, and I am sharing this post because I know of at least one young man here in Austin who died rather than accept himself as a gay man. I am sharing it because of the gay and lesbian family members I have — and how grateful I am that they are here. And I am sharing it for my gay and lesbian friends, without whom my life would not have been as rich or wonderful, without whom some of my best memories would be lost.

But mostly I am sharing in case a young person is wondering if they can survive the struggle…or if it’s worth it. Please,please know that God made you JUST AS YOU ARE, and you are perfect. Please don’t deprive the world of all you have to offer. It does get better, whether you believe it or not. Gay or straight, you matter — even when it doesn’t seem possible”

Yes We Can! by Chex (@ChadSchex) http://skrapnel.com/2009/01/08/iphone-with-gloves-yes-we-can/#comment-518 Sat, 25 Feb 2012 15:02:58 +0000 http://skrapnel.com/?p=53#comment-518 Unfortunately I purchased some that were supposed to work with the iPhone and they did, mediocrely. There were two problems: 1. You have to make sure they fit really well. Mine were a little large for my fingers, so it make using the iPhone difficult. I would have to turn the glove to match my finger print each time I wanted to use it. 2. After I washed the gloves, they stopped working altogether.

I like the prayer, “No Coming, No Going”. That was very good also. I’ve never heard that prayer. Your grandmother sounds like a great woman and a great human being.

Also you should post your recipe for the soup. Thanks. Keep Blogging. Keep Writing.

]]> Comment on Kubrick’s Use of Mickey Mouse Song in ‘Full Metal Jacket’ is Genius! by Mike http://skrapnel.com/2009/05/01/full_metal_jacket_mickey_mous/#comment-493 Wed, 07 Dec 2011 23:21:15 +0000 http://skrapnel.com/?p=464#comment-493 Mickey mouse is a direct refrence to Mk-Utra mind control being used by the elites. Also Full Metal Jacket is not really about vietnam (If you look closley it looks nothing like vietnam- its really about Kubrick predicting future wars in the middle east e.g compare the pictures of the urban battalfield to Iraq). Also this movie touches on the phantom bullet theory about JFK conspiracy theory (for more info check it out here: http://www.collativelearning.com/FMJ%20pt%2015.html )
