Credit Where Credit Is Due

Apple has joined Google in publicly opposing a California ballot initiative that would deny marriage rights to same-sex couples.

The company announced Friday that it would donate $100,000 to the No on Prop 8 campaign, which opposes a measure to ban gay marriage that California voters will consider a week from Tuesday. Google has also spoken out against the ballot measure.

"Apple was among the first California companies to offer equal rights and benefits to our employees' same-sex partners, and we strongly believe that a person's fundamental rights--including the right to marry--should not be affected by their sexual orientation. Apple views this as a civil rights issue, rather than just a political issue, and is therefore speaking out publicly against Proposition 8," the company said in a statement posted to the Hot News section of its Web site.

At Long Last!

Crispin Glover has signed on to play the Knave of Hearts in Tim Burton's adaptation of "Alice in Wonderland" for Disney.

Glover joins Mia Wasikowska as Alice and a cast that includes Johnny Depp, Anne Hathaway and Helena Bonham Carter. Burton is using a combination of live action and performance-capture technology to tell the Lewis Carroll story.

The APA-repped Glover is no stranger to performance-capture technology: He worked in the medium for "Beowulf."

In "Alice," the Knave of Hearts is put on trial for stealing the Queen of Hearts' tarts and is defended by Alice.

David Sedaris, Will You Also Be My Friend?

David Sedaris on undecided voters:

“To put them in perspective, I think of being on an airplane. The flight attendant comes down the aisle with her food cart and, eventually, parks it beside my seat. “Can I interest you in the chicken?” she asks. “Or would you prefer the platter of shit with bits of broken glass in it?”
To be undecided in this election is to pause for a moment and then ask how the chicken is cooked.”

Fuck You Too, Sarah Palin

NEW YORK – Republican vice presidential nominee Sarah Palin says she supports a constitutional amendment banning gay marriage, a break with John McCain who has said he believes states should be left to define what marriage is. In an interview with Christian Broadcasting Network, the Alaska governor said she had voted in 1998 for a state amendment banning same sex marriage and hoped to see a federal ban on such unions.

"I have voted along with the vast majority of Alaskans who had the opportunity to vote to amend our Constitution defining marriage as between one man and one woman. I wish on a federal level that's where we would go. I don't support gay marriage," Palin said. She said she believed traditional marriage is the foundation for strong families.

McCain, an Arizona senator, is supporting a ballot initiative in his state this year that would ban gay marriage. But he has consistently and forcefully opposed a federal marriage amendment, saying it would usurp states' authority on such matters. (from the AP)

Blogger's Note: Like she had my vote anyway.

Tina Fey, Can We Be Friends?

In an interview with TV Guide, Tina Fey reiterated her desire that her role as Palin will be temporary. "If she wins, I'm done," said Fey. "I can't do that for four years. And by 'I'm done,' I mean I'm leaving Earth."

Convos

Cookie recently found an old post on her blog that consisted of the following conversation between the two of us. I have no memory of this conversation but it only solidifies my firm belief that we should have our own sitcom.

Torrey: you have my blessing
Cookie: if torrey says so, than so be it
Torrey: it's like the hand of God
Cookie: the hand of god that touches alot of men.
Torrey: and how
Torrey: that's some divine intervention!

Then she came across these other gems, which I also don't remember.

Torrey: well you're butch, I'm not surprised
Cookie: oh yeah so butch
Torrey: you're so butch, you use tire rubber for chewing gum
Cookie: you are so femme that you have bedtime eyeshadow
Torrey: dammit, I wish I could deny that

Torrey: football is a lot like kylie minogue. damned if I see the appeal, but I guess it's not hurting anyone

Accent Quiz

What American accent do you have? Your Result: The Midland "You have a Midland accent" is just another way of saying "you don't have an accent." You probably are from the Midland (Pennsylvania, southern Ohio, southern Indiana, southern Illinois, and Missouri) but then for all we know you could be from Florida or Charleston or one of those big southern cities like Atlanta or Dallas. You have a good voice for TV and radio.

Every Cup Counts

Greg told me about this today at work. Starting back in 2000, 7-11 stores have offered coffee cups representing the two presidential candidates in all their stores during the big election seasons. They keep track of the amounts sold and for the past two elections, their final percentages have been almost dead-on with actual election results.
