Well, this is a change of pace. I'm not forgoing the trains; they are still an important piece. But yesterday I found out that Gov. J. B. Pritzker of Illinois stopped the "shielding" of various libraries. Now, when we think of libraries, we don't automatically think of items of great importance. But think of it - whether from Chicago or Prairie du Rocher, Illinoisans have an equal chance of information - including transgender folks. And it's free! Now from Bridgeport to Bridgewater, we have a chance to do the same. If you live in Connecticut, urge your legislators to do likewise. If you live outside of Connecticut, but have friends from Connecticut, urge them to join this fight. Thanks.

ezs note: I ran across Rev. Ed Trevors and got a breath of fresh air. Most of what passes off as 'Christianity' is pure crap. We may not see every line side to side (he is a [real] Christian, I am a Baha'i), but, geez, this guy is good. I'll do my bit to promote him.

By the way, if you're free on Saturday nights, Ed broadcasts live on most Saturday nights at 7:30 pm (Eastern time). Look for :

ezs note: How interesting. AG Skrmetti, that's a wonderful tale you've told. One 'tiny' glitch, though. If you're at home, with family and friends, heck, say what you will. However, when you enter the sign which reads 'Attorney General' over it certain rules apply. You know, the pesky one which say 'ethics' on them.
