Zeno's Paradox
November 17, 2003 - I'm Turning into a Stereotype

I'm currently listening to the Lawrence v. Texas after having read the federalism article below. I'm also preparing to read one of the great papers of early academic computer sciences. all while drinking a glass of whiskey on rocks. Intellectual-wannabe, anyone?

Buzzed update: Perhaps this is all a subconscious balancing mechanisim for me posting Hamtaro (kudos to Steve for identifying the hamster thus) earlier this day...

PPS. Listen to Lawrence v. Texas linked above, fast-forward to thirty-minutes in the timeline and listen. Great fun for all. "But your honor, those guys, while they were pounding each other's ass, are not homosexual as defined by the statute. We believe that they are not, in fact, gay!"

PPPS. Money shot -- Texas: "Homosexuality is publicly accepted, but homosexual activity is not. It cannot be traced to history or tradition." (34:40 - 35:30)

PPPPS. Gotta quit posting while buzzed. This is too fun. Might be addictive.

The Next Morning Update: my former instructor, Robert George, seems to believe that striking down laws prohibiting consentual sexual beahviors is an assault on the institution of marriage and is an unwarranted imposition of social-libertarian policy. I see his point, but I don't know how valid it is in light of equal protection.
