The Corrupt Supreme Court says Wedding Website Designers CAN Discriminate Against Imaginary Gay Couples... The Designer has Never Actually Designed a Wedding Website... and the Customer was FAKE!

The Mysterious Case of the Fake Gay Marriage Website, the Real Straight Man, and the Supreme Court... In filings in the 303 Creative v. Elenis case is a supposed request for a gay wedding website—but the man named in the request says he never filed it. Somebody’s using false information in a Supreme Court filing document.”
It looks like Smith and her attorneys have, perhaps unwittingly, invented a gay couple in need of a wedding website in a case in which they argue that same-sex marriages are “false.”


I just wrote to my Congressman and Said: IMPEACH The Corrupt Supreme Court. Massive Bribery... One of the Powers that the US House of Representatives Has is to THROW THEM OUT! Not Only are they Ruling Against the Wishes of the Vast Majority of Americans but... They Drive Voters away from the Republican Party... Recent Rulings anger Women, Gays, Young People, Minorities and College students... The only people NOT in that group are Uneducated Old White Men... How Can the GOP Win elections when the Vast Majority of Americans View The GOP as Corrupt Puppets of Billionaires???

Why employ an Anti-Gay Wedding Website Designer at all? Simply Do It Yourself! Blogger Allows You to Publish Words and Pictures... and Links to Videos... and Links to Gift Registries at Stores... What More Could You Want? 
and 

This Could be a Task Assigned to a Member of the Wedding Party... Some Tech-Savvy Friend Could Do This in a Day...

On FaceBorg: Bill Gordon Said:
To the Conservative members of the Supreme Court and Republican elected officials everywhere in the US, I think you all need to re-read your religious books because you seem to have missed something important.
Whether it is the Koran, the Torah, the New Testament, or any other religious text, they all boil down to these 3 basic constucts:
LOVE, KINDNESS, and COMPASSION
Somehow, it seems you have missed this in your religious training and have cherry picked verses to suit your behaviors. You have bastardized your understanding to be:
HATRED, VINDICTIVENESS, and APATHY
And your Rulings and Laws reflect your true nature!!

Possibly one of the best speeches on the House floor ever!
Adam Schiff speaking to his Republican "colleagues" about his being censured...
Schiff had his own take on his censure: “To my Republican colleagues who introduced this resolution, I thank you,’ he said. “You honor me with your enmity. You flatter me with this falsehood. You, who are the authors of a big lie about the last election, must condemn the truth-tellers and I stand proudly before you. Your words tell me that I have been effective in the defense of our democracy and I am grateful.”

To all the Republicans calling the documents leaker a patriot, let me refresh the definition of the word TRAITOR that you probably missed during your elementary school lessons.
TRAITOR
: a person who is not loyal to his or her own country, friends, etc.
: a person who betrays a country or group of people by helping or supporting an enemy.
Example:
He was a traitor who betrayed his country by selling military secrets to the enemy.

Just in case you might be wondering why tRump might want to hide an affair, check out this information.
If Melania had sued for divorce, tRump would have faced the following consequences...
"choosing to use adultery as grounds for a divorce can be a tactical negotiating move. If your spouse is high profile or in the public eye, having their spouse file for divorce on the grounds of adultery could be damaging, or at the very least, cause a public relations problem. Having actual testimony given about adultery could be extremely damaging. This, in turn, comes not only with personal costs, but financial costs.
Your spouse would need to pay for damage control and could face damaging consequences in their career. Anyone with a morals clause in their employment contract would be greatly concerned."
Any questions?

Here's an interesting aspect regarding tRump's "hush money" alleged payment. It was to cover up a crime in NY State!
Believe it or not, adultery is still a crime in New York. Section 255.17 of the New York penal code provides, “A person is guilty of adultery when he engages in sexual intercourse with another person at a time when he has a living spouse, or the other person has a living spouse." Dec 16, 2022

Youth Unlimited: Forbes Mill Rock Music Hall and the Fre-Ba-Zak House... Los Gatos, CA 1971. (a Chapter in my Autobiography)

A friend of mine went to San Francisco to the Fillmore West and came back to our high school and said... LET'S BUILD OUR OWN! We used the Old Mill in the center of town. We formed an organization called "Youth Unlimited" and got the Town to Sponsor Us with $1 per year rent. 

That was the beginning of The Forbes Mill Teen Club in Los Gatos California... We had a light show and electric rock music every weekend... On Wednesday nights we performed folk music.  I was the head of security and did advertising posters. I used the mimeograph machine at the High School to print the posters for upcoming shows...

Drawing of the Forbes Mill Light Show - Los Gatos, CA 1971



"Youth Unlimited" first held a concert in the Rec Room of the Presbyterian Church next to Old Town on University Ave. There was a live rock band that featured a saxophone player with an electric sax. We also formed a drum circle outside with me playing harmonica and a couple of guitar players. 

Since we had Town sponsorship of our "Teen Club" thru the organization Youth Unlimited, we had to make sure no laws were being broken at Forbes Mill or the police would shut us down. Certainly no drinking or illegal drug use or housing of runaways. My take on law enforcement was to direct potential lawbreakers to the nearby hole in the fence that lead to the wooded area next to the freeway.  I admit that a lot of laws were broken on State of California property, but that was NOT MY CONCERN. I was responsible for making sure that OUR property was crime free.

The light show was created by using four slide projectors and two spinning wheels with variable speed motors that blocked the light from reaching the white wall behind the bandstand. Each cardboard wheel had holes cut into it so that the slides would be projected in a stroboscopic manner.  Some slides were abstract art created by "crystal craze" paint and others were photographs.


We also owned a strobe light and I learned to not point it at the electric organ player because the blinking light made it impossible to see which keys were black and which were white...

"Youth Unlimited" also built a crisis center called Fre-Ba-ZAK House. 
 It was in an old wooden home on North Santa Cruz Ave. The idea was to have a place for runaways to have a safe location to negotiate with their parents. Kids that had nowhere else to go could go there ... My friend Richard Bergholdt worked there as a counselor. I used to go there because it was a fun place to go talk with other classmates... I remember drinking coffee and discussing weighty subjects late at night. One time I went there because I couldn't go home. I had gone to the Ike and Tina Turner concert at the San Jose Convention Center and took a Large Dose of LSD. I had to wait until my parents went to sleep before going home. It was a great concert and I remember that MANY of the students at LGHS went. I also remember listening to the FM radio there. Talks by Alan Watts about Buddhism... and the story "The Cave" by Plato. There were some totally free radio stations then. They had the freedom of selecting what to play and when to play it. I heard "Space Hymn" by Lothar and the Hand People at Fre-Ba-ZAK House.

In the 1960s I made tie dyed shirts using rubber bands and boiling the dye... one color... RIT brand named dye... and Mom sewed a shirt with bell sleeves and a Nehru collar... I wore it with a bell around my neck. Like, totally "mod"- like the fashion that was popular with the teenagers in England...

Pete Denevi owner

The Pool at the Swim and Raquet Club on Oka Road was 100 feet long. Most Pools are 25 yards. (Like the Los Gatos High School Pool) - Training in a longer pool was an excellent way to build endurance... For Example: if I got used to swimming a lap of butterfly... and then went to a competition in a shorter pool... I had an advantage... of Course, this didn't work when swimming at Foothill Junior College with their 50 meter pool...

It is Very Clear that all of the

The News made us feel angry and helpless... 
Something was wrong but we can't do anything to help... 
We were all like that years ago...

I built a laser light show using a laser pointer and a mirror from a birdcage...

I built a laser light show using a laser pointer, a mirror from a birdcage, my 130 in one experimenters kit from Radio Shack, a "V" shaped coat hanger, thread and two 3v DC motors driving unbalanced loads. The experimenters kit was arranged to produce oscillating voltages that drove the motors at speeds that gradually changed from slow to fast and then back to slow again. The motors were attached to the coathanger that supported the laser pointer and mirror... as the motors spun they caused the ends of the coathanger to move in circular motion. This caused the dot of laser light reflected upon the ceiling to wiggle in rhythmic elliptical patterns that changed shape over time... It's called a Lissajou pattern. Classic Lasarium pattern. Just to mix up the pattern a bit the ends of the coathanger were tied to each other with thread... that caused one end to effect the other end. Whacking the entire contraption with my hand was also fun and caused a larger pattern on the ceiling. Fun to play with while stoned.

My friend Ken built a much better laser lightshow using an industrial laser and a mirror coated with clear glue. It shined wave like clouds of red light on the ceiling. They often looked like galaxies. Originally he would invite people over and put on the Vangelis record "China" on and turn off the lights... Heavy synth music with cosmic clouds swirling slowly on the ceiling. One night my boss from work brought over her girlfriend and we all smoked PCP laced weed. "Hey mister, your floor's on fire..." she said... The mirror was mounted on a rotating platform on the floor. It glowed red... and concerned the guest...

Later, I convinced KEN to buy a synthesizer himself and we played music to the laser light show every weekend for years. Improvised cosmic noises and "sci-fi movie soundtrack music"...
