DEBRIS.COMgood for a laugh, or possibly an aneurysm

Jon Carroll’s column today made me laugh out loud:

Very soon now, our nation will engage in one of its most festive and patriotic days of celebration. Picnics will be held, kids will race around, flags will be carried, fireworks will be set off. The day means many things to many people, but I like to think of it as a celebration of the First Amendment, particularly freedom of speech and freedom of assembly.

Sometimes I’m at the edge of tears when I see these Americans of all different races and religions and ages gathering together freely and openly. That’s when I feel the most patriotic, when people put aside their differences and come together for a giant party celebrating our commonality of purpose.

I refer, of course, to this Sunday, gay pride day.

W00t!
