My Weekly Press Conference with President Obama

If I were the only reporter attending a weekly press conference for President Barack Obama, I would ask him the following questions:

(1) Mr. President, why haven't you very candidly told the American people yet that we have an urgent need for a comprehensive nationwide recycling program on any and all disposable items that can be recycled?

(2) Mr. President, What are you doing to help lower the violent crime rate throughout the United States?

(3) Mr. President, have you fired any federal employee or federal official so far because you concluded that he or she had made a significantly dishonest statement to the American people that you have since identified as being flagrantly false? If not, why haven't you as our Chief of State fired anyone yet for that cited reason?

(4) Mr. President, do you sense that possibly the U.S. Government will be facing massive lawsuits from foreign nations or foreign-based environmental groups in which the U.S. Government is accused of having caused disastrous Global Warming Effect damage to that foreign nation? How do you plan to respond to those inevitable multi-billion dollar lawsuits against the U.S. Government that foreign-based entities will no doubt be filing in a court of law in the foreseeable future?

(5) Mr. President, why is it that neither you nor First Lady Michelle Obama has made any public statement thus far in your White House tenure in which either of you has urged the American people to decline to consume marijuana or any other illicit drug. Do you both possibly fear offending the illicit-drug subculture, and if so, why would a scenario in which either of you might offend our nation's illicit-drug underworld pose a concern to your Administration?

(6) Mr. President, do you believe that the U.S. Government currently has an adequate and comprehensive inventory of all reserve supplies of each and every category of mineral and other natural resource that might be found in the United States? If not, are you sponsoring a new system for updating that crucial information about our nation on a monthly basis, say?

(7) Mr. President, you have recently hinted that you would support a realignment of our national economy that emphasizes 21st Century priorities for our nation. Would you also be willing to take a public stand supporting the elimination of any current industries in this nation, such as the tattooing industry, that contribute nothing whatsoever to our nation's well-being, and that do significantly offend and harm many Americans each year.

(8) Mr. President, Have you observed any evidence of corruption in the federal government so far in your tenure in the White House? If so, did you immediately and without flinching share that criminal-law evidence with the U.S. Department of Justice? I raise that question because it seems to me that if a U.S. President obtains evidence of corruption in government, he is honorbound to himself file a legal complaint about that corruption evidence with the U.S. Department of Justice or some other law-enforcement agency.

(9) Mr. President, do you admire the trans-Canadian passenger-train service that our neighbor to the north, Canada, offers to its citizenry? If so, then do you have plans for a trans-American high-speed or "bullet" train service that might connect Los Angeles, California, with Washington, D.C., New York City, New York, and Boston, Massachusetts, for instance?

(10) Mr. President, much has been said about the dog you and First Lady Michelle Obama and your two daughters recently adopted. Inevitably that raises the question of whether you believe the U.S. Government does enough to monitor the total dog population and total cat population in this nation. Would you like to see a more successful population-control program established that would help to reduce the total number of dogs and cats in this nation---dogs and cats that, in a nation such as ours with widespread poverty, inevitably raise the question of whether human beings are suffering from neglect as a result of our nationwide devotion to dogs and cats.

(11) Mr. President, since you yourself are already one of the most famous current or former residents of Chicago, Illinois, in the entire history of that city, do you feel a special devotion to helping to reduce the rate of political corruption in Chicago, Illinois? How do you plan to achieve that goal for yourself during your years as our duly elected Chief of State?


Thank you, Mr. President, for your responses to each of these questions at this press conference you have kindly agreed to hold today.

Your Human Right of Mutual-Consent Association

Among the human rights that you as a human being should savor and enjoy fully are the following Freedom of Association and Freedom of Speech and Freedom of Religion legal rights that are fully protected by the U.S. Constitution Bill of Rights:

---the Human Right of a Non-Smoker like yourself to associate in mutual-consents context with other Non-Smokers;

---the Human Right of a Complete and Year-Round Teetotaler (No Alcohol Consumption) such as yourself to associate in strictly-mutual-consent contexts with other complete and year-round teetotalers;

---the Human Right of a Gentleman such as yourself with no prior or current addiction to alcohol, tobacco, or any illicit drug, to yourself associate, in strictly-mutual-consent cases, with gentlemen who, like yourself in those very important ways, have no prior or current addiction to alcohol, tobacco, or any illicit drug.

---the Human Right of a Permanent and Complete Abstainer from any and all Illicit Drugs to associate in mutual-consent contexts with other illicit-drug-free persons;

---the Human Right of a Law-Abiding Gentleman with no Criminal-Conviction Record to Associate in Mutual-Consent Contexts with other Law-Abiding Gentlemen who, like himself, have no criminal-conviction record;

--the Human Right of a Gentleman who is consistently honest and almost never faulted by others for a cited "dishonesty," to himself associate in mutual-consent contexts with other gentlemen who, like himself, are consistently honest.

--the Human Right of a Gentleman who drives his motor vehicle within the speed limit on the roadways to associate in mutual-consent contexts with other Gentlemen who, like himself, drive within the speed limit on roadways.

---the Human Right of a Gentleman who never drives a motor vehicle while under the influence of any alcohol or illicit drug, to himself associate in mutual-consent contexts with other Gentlemen who, like himself, never drive a motor vehicle while under the influence of any alcohol or illicit drug.

--the Human Right of a Law-Enforcement-minded Gentleman who fully supports enforcement of the various criminal-law laws prohibiting the production, sale, possession, or consumption of any illicit drug, to himself associate with other Law-Enforcement-Minded Gentlemen who, like himself, also support the state penal code in those ways.

--the Human Right of a Facially-Cleanshaven and Cleancut (no facial hair) Gentleman to Associate in mutual-consent contexts with other Facially-Cleanshaven and Cleancut (no facial hair) Gentlemen.

---the Human Right of a tattoo-less gentleman to associate, in mutual-consent contexts, with other gentlemen who, like himself, have no tattoo anywhere on their body.

--the Human Right of a Gentleman who always keeps his hands to himself and never grabs or pinches or caresses or physically touches or physically pats or physically nudges another person in any in-person conversation with that person that's a strictly-platonic context or non-romantic context for that other person, to associate in mutual-consent contexts with other Gentlemen who are just as platonically polite as himself in those ways.

--the Human Right of a Gentleman who strongly opposes the sex crime of pederasty or pedophilia, as it is often called, to associate in mutual-consent cases with other gentlemen who, like himself, strongly oppose the sex crime of pederasty.

--the Human Right of a consistently Clean-Talking Gentleman to associate in a mutual-consent context with other consistently clean-talking gentlemen.

--The Human Right of a deistic (neither atheistic nor agnostic, in other words) and religious gentleman to associate, in mutual-consent contexts, with other gentlemen who, like himself, are deistic and religious.

--the Human Right of a Gentleman who seeks to help address the needs of a wide variety of children and teenage persons and all other persons under age 30, to associate in mutual-consent contexts with other persons who seek to help address a wide variety of younger persons' needs.

--the Human Right of a Gentleman who chooses not to talk much about sex or sexual activities or sexuality themes or gender themes per se, to have conversations in mutual-consent contexts with other gentlemen who, like themselves, choose not to talk much about sex or sexual activities or sexuality themes or gender themes per se.

--the Human Right of a Gentleman who has been recently certified as being HIV-negative to associate in mutual-consent contexts with other gentlemen who, like himself, have been recently certified as being HIV-negative. It's noteworthy that the HIV-Negative Adult Gentlemen Community is among the observable communities or subcultures in American society today, with heterosexual adult men comprising an estimated 99 percent of all HIV-negative adult gentlemen in the United States of today. It is very likely, in fact, that a new non-profit advocacy group with a title such as "HIV-Negative Americans' Rights Association," an organization that might offer very affordable group health insurance policies to any of its dues-paying members members and thereby reward them for leading diligently HIV-negative lifestyles, will be formed in the foreseeable future.

Possible Need for an Adult Celibate Rights Group

One of the minority groups facing societal discrimination against them in the United States are single adult persons who have been celibate for at least two consecutive months.

Members of a proposed new Celibate Rights Group could then raise funds for their non-profit group by doing stand-up comedy skits inside live-performance theaters about their lives as long-term celibate single adult gentlemen or ladies.

Those comedy skits might contain lines such as:

"My friends tell me I'm guaranteed of getting listed in the 'Guinness Book of World Records' as the one Single Adult Celibate Male Person in all of world history who has remained completely celibate for the most consecutive years. However, I'm not sure I'd want that kind of global fame. It might give me a chance to get interviewed on television by Jay Leno or David Letterman, but that would be rather traumatic. I wouldn't know what to say when David Letterman asks me what my secret has been for remaining completely celibate all these years. I think I'd tell David Letterman that my secret is that I did NOT want the celibacy. I have found throughout my life that whatever I did NOT want is what I get. I think God is a sadist and a pervert who likes to toy with me that way."

---"My whole life has been one big Elimi-Date Experience in which I was always the one getting eliminated from consideration. If I told the guy I was having a lunch date with that I'm a freelance journalist, he would immediately ask the waiter for the bill and threaten to sue me if I quote him on anything. I would get stuck at the dining table with this huge mound of guacamole all to myself. I'd gain five pounds every time the guy walked out on me in the middle of our lunch date."

---"I break into tears whenever I go grocery shopping, since I'm always staring at the two-word term 'expiration date' whenever I try to decide whether to buy a food product or beverage. I break into tears because I'll be age 99 before I land my first date, at the rate my social life is going. And at age 99, I'd be at risk of expiring, so to speak, in the middle of that romantic date for myself. The only consolation I can think of is that I wouldn't have to worry about whether she'd say yes to a second date with me."

---"I think my problem has been that everyone assumes I'm married, since I don't wear any wedding ring on my finger. If I wore a wedding ring, then everyone would assume I'm very available and eager for a hot date."

----"The longer I remain celibate, the more my friends assume I've got an incurable disease of some type. 'I just assumed you've always been celibate because you wanted to spare someone else from catching the medical disease you have,' one of my close friends told me the other day. 'Personally, I think it's very noble and kind of you not to put anyone else at risk of catching whatever that incurable disease is that everyone says you have.'"

---"I guess I've always identified with the late bloomer. I graduated from high school five years later than average. And now I'm expecting to graduate from virginity 30 years later than average."

---"In my wildest nightmare, I never thought I'd be identifying with Roman Catholic priests. But now that I've been an involuntary celibate for 12 consecutive years, my friends are saying I might as wll apply for the priesthood. 'At least that way, you can get paid by the Roman Catholic Church for the life of complete and uninterrupted celibacy you've already got,' as one of my male adult friends put it to me the other day."

---"One thing about a long-term involuntary celibate is that I spend so much money on Vaseline that I might as well invest in that company. But when I check the daily stock market report, I never find any company called Vaseline, Inc. So I guess I'll have to do some more research to learn the name of the parent company. And frankly, I'm not sure that I have the desire to pursue that research."

---"I like to joke with friends of mine that I'm not really a celibate. It's just that I'm experiencing a coitus interruptus that has lasted 12 consecutive years for me in Austin, Texas. But don't ask me which coitus of mine was interrupted, since whatever it was, was very forgettable. At this point, I'm not even sure what a coitus looks like."

---"I've been a celibate for so long that I'm terrified by the very idea of my ever owning a pet dog. If I bought a pet female dog, I'd be very worried that she might try to seduce me. And then the very next day, I'd pick up the 'New York Post' and find the brutal headline, 'Dog Owner Seduces Bitch.' They'd have to print a correction notice, saying that it was the female dog, or bitch, who seduced the dog owner, and not the other way around."

---"The celibate life is so lonely that I can't even find any male god from Greek religion who was celibate. Even the ancient Greeks found the very idea of a man remaining a virgin to be completely and utterly inconceivable."

---"Whenever I go out on a date with a guy, I invariably get someone who informs me over dessert that he has herpes. He emphasizes that his is a mild form of herpes, and he is taking proper medication for it, so my chances of catching herpes from him are very tiny. 'And even if you do catch herpes from me,' he invariably adds, 'it's nothing compared to the alternative. A lot of single guys these days are HIV-positive. They're hommes-fatale, if you get my drift."

---"I'm so old-fashioned about dating that I wear a chastity belt whenever I go out with a guy. I'll leave the key to my chastity belt in my apartment, and explain to the guy I'm dating that I can't go all the way with him, for that one reason. One guy tried to foil my strategy on that. He told me he's a professional locksmith, and he'd love to unlock my chastity belt for me inside his home. So I told him that I couldn't possibly visit his home until I was completely sure he's not a serial killer. After I said that, he seemed to lose interest in unlocking my chastity belt."

---"My dates always fall apart when the guy I'm dating starts to talk about his politics and religion with me. One guy told me that he is a Libertarian Atheist, and he is sure that all the world's environmental problems can be solved without any involvement by the government. I felt so turned off by that infantile comment, that I wanted to spank the guy I was dating. When I admitted that impulse of mine to him, he replied that he loves S&M! He would welcome a naughty mistress in his life, he said. 'How big is your paddle?' he then asked me. I was so disgusted by his question that I ended the date right there."

---"I should have known better than to date an artist. He told me I looked so lovely in the nude that he had to paint me before he would even think of touching my body, he said. He then ordered me to lie naked on his bed while he painted me. After five hours of that nonsense, I finally put a stop to the Involuntary Modeling Session. I told him I have no desire to be his 21st Century Renoir, and I fled from his bedroom untouched while he continued his art project."

--"I finally figured out why I've been celibate for 20 consecutive years. It turns out that some older guy I rejected ages ago has paid every eligible bachelor I've met ever since then to either fake friendliness and then act real cold toward me, or act real cold toward me from the very start. That older man I rejected never acknowledged my legal right to exclude himself from my own life. He tried to eliminate any new dating option for me through illegal bribery and extortionism that he sponsored. What's eerie about it all is that no one ever tells me they have accepted bribe money from that older man. He's like Citizen Kane, and he is the last person in the world I would ever agree to have any involvement with. So in practical terms, he's consigned me to a life of celibacy and living alone for the rest of my life. My only consolation is it's a lifestyle for me that's far preferable to any involvement with that very cruel and unattractive Citizen Kane."

--"I learned yesterday that I've now got an international reputation for being a long-term involuntary celibate gentleman. I got a letter in the mail yesterday from researchers for the University of Uppsala in Sweden, inviting me to be interviewed in person in Sweden about what long-term involuntary celibacy is like. It seems that long-term involuntary celibacy is so rare in Sweden that sociologists there thought it would be fascinating sociological rarity to explore."

---"I learned yesterday for the first time that I've got a reputation for being an involuntary celibate. I received a letter yesterday from an official of the Roman Catholic Church, congratulating me for having won a 'Monk of the Year Award.' It turns out that the prize in that contest is a year's supply of Vaseline. Now I'm trying to figure out where I'm going to put all those jars of Vaseline."

My Advice to an Imaginary Younger Brother

If I had had a younger brother, I would have wanted to share with him the following advice:

---"You might want to try not sprinkling salt on your food. You will get plenty of sodium from other sources. And it's good for your long-term medical health to avoid excessive consumption of sodium."

---"In your dietary lifestyle, you might want to consider making the conversion from mayonnaise to mustard or some other low-cholesterol, low-fat condiment. That conversion will help you to lead a healthier and longer life."

---"If you love pursuing one sport, but don't currently pursue any other sports during your leisuretime, you might want to consider adding another sport or two to your skills repertoire. This will give you more chances for meeting new people. Also, it will give you other sports to pursue if for some reason you cannot find an exercise partner in your favorite sport of tennis, for instance."

---"If you meet a girl or young woman who intrigues you, see if you can develop a good platonic rapport with her. Do you find that you enjoy your in-person conversations with her if you keep those conversations focused on non-romantic topics? Do her hobbies and pastimes and personal values and religious beliefs appeal to you? Do you feel relaxed and comfortable while chatting with her about her favorite sports or her favorite places, for instance."

----"Don't ever shy away from smiling at other persons. Most people do regard a smile as a sign that you are a true gentleman, and that you are people-friendly. Most people when they see you smiling will regard you as inspirational and inspired. You will suggest to them the term 'sublime beauty' when you smile at them."

---"Keep in mind that if you are consistently civil and law-abiding and honorable and hygienic and facially cleanshaven and clean-talking, people will describe you as being a true gentleman. They will appreciate this great trait of yours, and they will comment to you about how rare it is to meet a 'true gentleman' these days!"

---"If you want to enjoy the elegant and refined life of a gentleman, you might ask yourself whether any of your current mutual-consent male friends or any of your current mutual-consent male acquaintances strike you as being true gentlemen. The more that you choose to associate with true gentlemen, the greater your own ability to lead the life of a true gentleman yourself."

---"You might want to keep a personal file at all times in which you keep notes about each of your leading non-romantic or platonic sources of enjoyment and delight in your life. If you enjoy Spanish Renaissance architecture or public botanical gardens, for instance, by all means include either of those to your list. If you delight in reading about societal innovations in Sweden, you could also add that to your list. If you thrill to subway systems, you could add that to your non-romantic passions list. If you enjoy playing clay-court tennis, you could add that to your list as well. You could also add the names of each of your favorite popular songs and each of your favorite poems to that file."

---"If you meet someone you feel sure you might like to keep up with on a multi-year basis, you might want to ask that person to please tell you his or her middle name. If you have that person's first name, middle name, and last name, and you keep that information in your permanent address book, you will find it much easier to keep up with that person."

---"You might want to consider learning a fair amount about homemaking skills. I offer this advice partly because most men of the 21st Century will spend many years of their life either as a single person who has not yet married or as a person whose marriage failed and who is now a divorced person living alone. A single man has a great need to know how to cook for himself and perform some sewing work---how to sew a button back onto his shirt after a button has fallen off his shirt, for instance. A single man can save thousands of dollars per year if he has good home economics skills---including his household bookkeeping skills, I might add."

---"Look upon yourself as a Scholar-Athlete, and you will feel a happy and healthy harmony in your life. That harmony will spare you from the excesses of either intellectual elitism or, on the other hand, an anti-intellectual and crude muscularity to your personal style."

---"Strive to pursue reading during your leisuretime for at least 30 minutes every day. That daily reading discipline will be an enormous and pervasive benefit to you throughout your life."

----"If you don't enjoy reading, ask yourself whether you are reading about the topics and themes that intrigue or fascinate you the most. If you are intrigued by professional tennis players, for instance, but you never read about that subject, this might help explain why you find reading to be an unpleasant experience."

---"Keep in mind that every year you grow older, you are increasingly in the position of yourself being an adviser and counselor to persons younger than you are. Your identity as a younger brother will evolve into your new role in which you are expected to offer wisdom to others."

---"If you pursue a life in which you consistently abstain from drinking alcohol and from consuming any and all tobacco products and all illicit drugs, you will have a much happier and healthier life."

---"If you generally exclude persons who are addicted to alcohol or any illicit drug from your own life, you will find that you benefit emotionally and morally in a very pervasive manner. Acquaintances and so-called 'friends' who are themselves addicted to alcohol or drugs might otherwise have led you astray."

---"It is wise and prudent for you to learn a variety of career-related and vocational skills. This protects your ability to be financially solvent and pay all your bills throughout your life---even during periods in which there are lots of cutbacks of jobs in your primary career field."

---"If you exclude persons from your own life who exhibit a contempt or defiance of your own Freedom of Religion, Freedom of Speech, or privacy rights, you will find that the persons whom you do agree to associate with are far more trustworthy, far kinder, and better for yourself as a human being."

----"Keep in mind that the vast majority of Big Brother figures out there are domineering, censorious, dictatorial, repressive, unappreciative, cruel, exploitative, unethical, dishonest, sly, intrusive, law-breaking, or sadistic male persons who do not merit your own fraternal camaraderie or Brotherly Love."

----"If the clubs or organizations you join are wholesome and law-abiding and creatively fulfilling, you are very likely to make several lasting mutual-consent friends from those civic group involvements of yours."

---"Always keep a file that cites each of the personal traits and attributes of yours that you love the most. It is particularly crucial for a younger brother to maintain a year-round file of this type, since younger brothers generally do not receive as many words of praise as the older siblings do."

---"Whenever you hear anyone mention to you that younger brothers tend to be 'under-achievers,' make a point of pursuing research about younger brothers of American history and world history who were, in fact, very prolific achievers. That biographical information will serve as a fine response to the many who claim that younger brothers are somehow pre-destined to incompetence and failure and a life of under-achievement."

---"Do not let anyone dictate to you what your own priorities should be in life. If you want to move to Fort Lauderdale, Florida, because that prospective town for yourself has lots of public outdoor clay tennis courts, that is certainly your Freedom of Speech-protected legal right. If you want to move to Salt Lake City, Utah, because that city offers greater societal support for an alcohol-free, tobacco-free, illicit-drug-free, clean-talking, facially-cleanshaven, cleancut, hygienic, law-abiding, and law-enforcement-minded lifestyle such as your own, that is also your prerogative. You do not live in a communist nation, so you are free to move to any city in the country where you hold citizenship--the USA being that country."

---"Be particularly kind and generous and appreciative toward the gentlemen and ladies who politely pursue hobbies and sports with you that are emotionally healthy for you as well as medically healthful for you. Your nice tennis partners and your nice racquetball partners are true lifesavers for you in your own life. And you will find that many of your tennis partners and racquetball partners will also be persons with whom you enjoy sharing a meal and conversation or sharing tea and conversation. And on the birthdays of your tennis partners or racquetball partners, you might even want to buy those athletic partners of yours something special to show your appreciation--- a birthday cake shaped like a tennis racquet or racquetball racquet, for instance."

My Stand-Up Comedy Skit About Austin, Texas

If I were a stand-up comedian here in Austin, I would devote an entire stand-up comedy skit to the city of Austin. My skit might sound something like this:
"Austin, Texas, is the only city I know of where when you see smoke in the air, you immediately suspect it came from a marijuana party.
"Austin is so marijuana-crazed, in fact, that I have often wondered why we don't have any church building in this city that's shaped and painted to resemble a giant marijuana leaf.
"It would be the sort of new religion that regards a marijuana-induced high as being the greatest spiritual adventure that any member of that church could ever achieve during his lifetime.
"It would be the sort of church where the communion service consists of the pastor handing a marijuana reefer to the congregation. Each member would then be asked to inhale briefly and then pass that religious reefer on to the next member."
"The communion would also feature the passing of special divinely-blessed brownies on which the congregation members could munch with the greatest of piety."
"That communion would then be followed by a special 'Show and Tell' service in which each member of that New Religion congregation with a new tattoo on his body would be invited to stand in front of the congregation and reveal exactly why his body is now, more than ever, the Temple of the Lord.
"'My most recent tattoo on my chest shows Christ just before he was crucified,' that ardent Modern Religionist might declare. 'It makes me all the more devoted to being as Christ-like as possible throughout my life---no matter how many enemies I have trying to nail me to the cross.'"

The Search for Expiration Dates in the Supermarket

Whenever I select a food or beverage product in the supermarket that I tentatively plan to purchase, I first attempt to identify the expiration date on that food product.
And that search for the expiration date can be very difficult as well as time-consuming. Some companies put the expiration date near the bottom of their product; others put that expiration date near the top.
And often the expiration date is virtually impossible to read, since the type size is tiny or the expiration date information is stated in a very cryptic manner.
This is why I am hoping that the United States Congress will soon approve a new federal law requiring that the expiration date on each and every food item or beverage item must be placed in the same approximate area, and that certain clarity of communication and type-size standards must be met on each such expiration date being cited.

One possibility: Congress could require that the expiration date on a food or beverage item must always be provided near the very top portion of that food package or beverage container.

A federal "Consistency of Expiration Date Labels" requirement would save most American consumers dozens of hours of time per year.

That proposed new federal law would also help consumers to protect their own and their immediate family members' health.

The proposed federal law would do that by helping consumers to avoid purchasing a stale food or beverage product. After all, stale or spoiled food or beverage products could potentially be a source of food poisoning or otherwise harmful to the health of the consumer.

Obama Scholar Interviewed

I recently conducted a hypothetical or imaginary interview with a leading Obamologist, a Professor of Obama Studies, about the Obama Presidency.
The following is a transcript of that interview:

OBAMOLOGIST: "I continue to hope that increasingly we will come to view President Obama as a great Ideas Man in the White House."

JKM: "Does your observation suggest that you don't currently regard President Obama as a great Ideas Man?"

OBAMOLOGIST: "I would hate to offend the President by making a blunt comment of that type. After all, my career is devoted to studying President Obama's peformance in office. I would lose valuable contacts in the White House if I said 'yes' to your question."

JKM: "Can you name some good ideas that you associate with President Obama?"

OBAMOLOGIST: "His support for high-speed passenger train service is a good idea for our country. I might even rate it as a great idea, at some future point."

JKM: "Is that good, and potentially great, idea by President Obama accompanied by a strong devotion on his part to establishment and enhancement of passenger-train rail transit systems providing rail service exclusively within a metro area?"

OBAMOLOGIST: "You have just raised an awkward point, since it's obvious that even if you could travel from Dallas, Texas, to Houston, Texas, by bullet train, you'd find yourself rather helpless in Houston at that point. The light-rail transit system in Houston is minimal to the point of laughable."

JKM: "As a leading Obamologist, can you recall any speech by President Obama in which he has actually cited the American cities where he would assign highest priority for federal sponsorship of extensive rail transit systems within that city or metro area?"

OBAMOLOGIST: "I personally cannot, but I remain hopeful that our very popular President will publicize a list of the 20 American cities he would like to see getting top priority for that type of federal funding."

JKM: "And what about our President's mass-transportation message to rural Americans?"

OBAMOLOGIST: "Once again, as an Obama scholar I have yet to find an opportunity to congratulate him on his great ideas in this area."

JKM: "Is Obama a good Ideas Man, at least, for rural residents seeking mass-transportation services?"

OBAMOLOGIST: "Obama may well be willing to settle for 'good' in that category. Possibly the federal government will be financing some studies aimed at identifying the mass-transportation potential of small towns and medium-sized towns. Personally, I would love to see a wind-powered-and-solar-powered People Pusher in our small towns."

JKM: "You have just brought up the subject of pushers, and that raises another important question. Do you think it would be a great idea, or merely a good idea, for President Obama to remind everyone that he will NOT be willing to host any drug dealer or drug pusher, if you will, anywhere on the grounds of the White House at any time during his term of office."

OBAMOLOGIST: "That would qualify as a Great Idea. I think the American people will respect President Obama a lot more if he establishes a firm and unequivocal anti-pusher policy in his White House."

JKM: "Are you suggesting that the Welcome Mat placed in front of the Obama White House should declare, 'Cocaine Dealers Not Welcome Here'?"

OBAMOLOGIST: "If it would help to prevent yet another cocaine scandal in D.C., then I think President Obama should get credited with a 'Great Idea' for coming up with a courageous welcome mat wording of that type."

JKM: "But might there be a risk that the negative tone of that welcome mat message could seem inhospitable to a visiting dignitary from a foreign nation who insists that he himself never never snuffs, nor does he ever snort, for that matter."

OBAMOLOGIST: "Only future historians will know for sure whether that welcome mat message from President Obama, the one that everyone is expecting him to offer in the very near future, will be rated by those historians as a Great Idea or merely a Good Idea from President Obama."

Urgent Need for a Guide to Technical Nouns Cited in Everyday Life

I still have not found a thorough and practically useful and fully illustrated dictionary or guide to each that clearly identifies and defines each of the technical nouns or technical terms that I have the most frequent need to cite in my everyday life.

Today, for instance, I was not able to think of the correct technical noun that describes the plastic weight contained in many bottles of prescribed medications.

That plastic weight, I was told tonight by a female pharmacist on the telephone, is designed to keep those medications as dry as possible.


Unfortunately, the current guidebooks to technical nouns often fail to provide the correct terminology for the objects and things that Americans in their everyday lives have a need to concisely refer to or describe.

Among those types of objects from everyday life that challenge most Americans' ability to refer to those items quickly, clearly, and with ease, and the related questions of language usage that arise, are:

---What is the correct term for each section of the printer to one's personal computer inside one's residence?

---What is the difference between a nameplate, placard, a nametag, or a lapel, for instance?

--What is the difference between a podium and a rostrum? Are there other, similar or related terms or nouns that are also used?

--Which technical noun or term refers to the stand where an on-duty host or hostess is normally stationed inside a restaurant?

---What is the difference between a "foyer," and a "lobby," inside a building?

---What is meant by the term "veranda"?

---What are the different types of terms used to refer to the various types of videocameras and television monitors situated inside a store that each film or offer televised images of customers as they enter that store.

---What is the term used to refer to each of the various types of non-electric items that dangle from the ceilings inside business establishments? One of those terms is "mobile"; but what about other technical terms used to refer to non-electric displays or items dangling from the ceilings inside stores?

---What term is used to refer to a large shiny item (a ball or dome, or some such item) that dangles from the ceiling inside some stores, and that is somehow used by that store for security purposes.

---What is a "retractable ballpoint pen," as distinct from a regular ballpoint pen?

---What is the difference between a "pin" and a "pushpin"?

---What is the generic term for each of the items inside one's home that we currently refer to using a manufacturer's name instead of actually describing or defining that type of item. What, for instance, is the generic term for a mini-card-file that many Americans refer to as being a "Rolodex," Rolodex being a company's name for that type of product.

---What is the term for the various alternatives to an attache case that are similar to an attache case without actually being one?

---Inside a gym, what is the difference between an elliptical and a treadmill?

---What is meant by the term "stationary bicycle"?

---Which technical nouns or terms refer to the personal-memorabilia object, such as a figurine of "Our Lady of Guadalupe," that dangles from the rear-view mirror near the driver seated inside an automobile?

--What is the term that most precisely refers to the mirror protruding outside from the right side and left side of each motor vehicle near the front passenger and the driver, respectively? Is "side-view mirror" or "side mirror" the correct term for that type of mirror?

---Which terminology is used to describe each category of "lamp" that might be found in one's home or workplace? For instance, which technical noun is used to refer to a lamp that dangles from the ceiling and is connected to a chain or link or cord?

---Which categories of calendars are there, in addition to a "wall calendar" or a "desk calendar," for instance?

---Which technical terms are used to refer to the various types of maps one might use in everyday living? For instance, do I refer to the map of the entire world that's posted on the wall of my apartment as a "wall map of the world" or a "poster map of the world"?

---What is the technical term to describe an object placed on one's desk that is used to hold pens? Is that a "pen-holder," a "pencil-holder," or something else? If I am storing pens inside a pencil-holder, would it be incorrect to refer to that as a pencil-holder?

--What are the various terms used to refer to the various types of notebooks one might purchase inside a stationery store? What is a bound notebook, for instance, and how does it differ from a loose-leaf notebhook or other types of notebooks?

---Which various technical nouns or technical terms are used to describe artworks that are replicas of actual paintings?

---Aside from the term "tea kettle" and "tea cup," which other technical nouns or technical terms are used in describing the process of preparing homemade tea or serving homemade tea?

---What is the semantic or connotational difference between a "tea cup" and a "coffee cup"? Is a tea cup generally smaller or larger than a coffee cup, for instance.

---What is the technical term that refers to food products or beverages that bear the name of the supermarket chain where those products are sold? Are they the "store brand," the "company brand name," the "house-brand name," or what?

--What are the various terms to refer to items of clothing or jewelry or the types of shoes that ladies or girls sometimes wear? What is meant by the terms "pumps" and "broach," for instance?

Lifelong Education Strategy: Develop First-Rate Reference-Books Library in Your Residence

One of the best ways to achieve a successful lifelong-education strategy in your own life, and in the life of any other members of your immediate household, is to establish a varied and extensive Reference-Books Library inside your residence.

Inside my own private residence in northwest Austin, I have made that goal a leading priority of mine during my leisuretime. I purchased nearly all of my one-volume reference books at a very low price, since they were either used books on sale at a store such as Goodwill, or used or new books I found at a Half-Price Books bookstore.

Among the titles of one-volume reference books, many of them paperbacks, that I currently own and am keeping on the bookshelves of my private residence are: "The Macmillan Visual Dictionary," "The Macmillan Visual Almanac," "Oxford Family Encyclopedia," "Ultimate Visual Dictionary," "The Associated Press Stylebook and Libel Manual," "QPB Dictionary of Ideas," "Encyclopedia Britannica Almanac," "The Dictionary of Global Culture," "The New York Times Almanac," "The World Almanac," "Texas Handbook," "The Dictionary of Cultural Literacy," "The Cambridge Factfinder," "The Handy Science Answer Book" from Barnes & Noble, "The Oxford Picture Dictionary," "Time Almanac," "The Cambridge Encyclopedia," "Information Please Almanac," "Birds of North America" by Golden Press, "Encyclopedia of Natural Medicine," "Respectfully Quoted: A Dictionary of Quotations" from Barnes & Noble, and "Webster's Concise Dictionary."

My extensive home reference-books library enhances my ability to hone my intellect and glean fresh insights during a period of my life in which I am no longer a college student or graduate student.

My reference-books library also gives me invaluable reference materials I can consult or quote from when I pursue freelance journalism inside my residence. So the reference books library will help me to increase my total annual income---a very tangible benefit to me.

I hope to someday join an American Home Reference-Library Association that promotes development of a helpful and extensive personal reference library inside one's own residence.

Proposed Children's Book Project: Profiles of Great Scholar-Athletes in U.S. History

One children's book project that I would love to contribute toward, if I ever find a book publisher that likes the idea, is a children's book offering wholesome profiles and mini-biographical accounts about 50 to 100 selected great Scholar-Athletes from American history.

A wide variety of female scholar-athletes and of male scholar-athletes could be profiled in the proposed new children's book.

The proposed book would contain numerous photographs and sketches to help convey to youths the sublime beauty and dynamic appeal of a life devoted to earnest excellence in sports and in athletics---including during one's early childhood and teenage years.

The proposed new book could particularly highlight the varsity college athletes---
including 1970s quarterback and Rhodes scholar Pat Hayden of the University of Southern California's varsity football team, which was coached in those days by Pat Hayden's father---who have each earned academic awards or made noteworthy intellectual contributions.

The proposed new children's book would encourage all youths to strive for a healthy balance between achievement in athletics and achievement in academics. In this way, those young persons can achieve a wise equilibrium helps to sustain them throughout their entire life, including during their retirement years.

The proposed children's book might even offer biographical information about achievements in athletics and intellectual pursuits that many of the profiled scholar-athletes have achieved during later periods of their life---during their middle-aged or senior-citizen years, for instance.

Also included in this proposed new book might be a brief history of the "scholar-athlete" ideal in world history. Factual information might be provided about the role of the scholar-athlete in ancient Greece, for instance.

The proposed new children's book might also include factual information from medical physicians about why physically fitness strengthens a human being's ability to achieve academically. The close relationship between physical fitness and mental healthiness would be explored at length in the proposed new children's book.

I am hopeful that the proposed new children's book would also help to inspire the establishment of many additional financial scholarships, financial awards, and financial grants for primary-level and secondary-level students, as well as for college students or graduate students, that financially reward many of those young persons in a very generous manner for their own personal devotion to achievement in athletics as well as in academics or intellectual pursuits.

Anthology idea: Excerpts from Witty Police Detectives

One new book anthology that I hope will be compiled, edited, and published soon, is a book with a title such as, "The Wit and Wisdom of Police Detectives."

I recently obtained from the Austin (Texas) Public Library some audio recordings of the 1950s radio series "Dragnet," featuring a Los Angeles (Calif.) Police Department law-enforcement officer called "Sergeant Friday."

I am finding as I delight in the blunt-sounding and accusatory interviews that Sergeant Friday conducted with criminal-law suspects that Sergeant Friday helped to transform the entire image of the so-called "straight man" in American humor.

Unlike most "Straight Men" of American humor, who are dry and stodgy and very formal and verbose, Sergeant Friday of the Los Angeles Police Department (LAPD) is often funny and witty and pithy. He is presented as being far more interesting than the "clever" and "entertaining" and "colorful" thieves, con artists, burglars, murderers, and other denizens of the criminal underworld whom Sergeant Friday interviews in person for LAPD.

The terse one-liner rejoinders to suspected criminals that Sergeant Friday of the Los Angeles Police Department verbalizes with pugilistic prowess elicit from listeners more chuckles and delighted laughter than do the vast majority of all professional comedians and entertainers. "How marvelous, to sense that Straight Men CAN be interesting, contrary to what the American news media generally indicate"--so the listener notes to himself as he listens to the latest memorable retort from Sergeant Friday.

In addition to his humor, of course, Sergeant Friday does present the invaluable societal message that the pursuit of crime is foolhardy, injurious to others, and self-destructive. For that, we can also be very thankful.

It would be interesting to find out whether the Los Angeles Police Department has erected a public statute honoring one of "LAPD's Finest and Greatest Officers: Sergeant Friday." Or possibly LAPD has sponsored a "Sergeant Friday" exhibit at a "History of LAPD Museum" somewhere in Los Angeles, California.

Listening to audiotapes of Sergeant Friday also serves as a helpful reminder that there are some citizens of Los Angeles, California, who are, in fact, true to that city's name. Not only are they themselves law-abiding and honorable, but they seek to help lawfully and in a civil manner purge that Southern California city of "Los Diablos" (The Devils).

My Advice to Youths and Teens: Do Oral History Interview of Each of Your Parents

One of the finest "presents" you can ever give yourself, and your family, is to each year conduct an oral-history interview of each of your parents.

You can then keep those oral-history tapes on a lifelong basis, which will serve as a fine inspiration to you and your descendants throughout their lives.

Among the many questions that a child or teenage person of today might want to consider posing in a respectful manner to your mother or father for a 2009 Family Oral History Tape, are:

---"What do you believe was the most difficult challenge or crisis that you ever directly experienced in your own life so far? How did you respond to that challenge or crisis?"

---"Which important decisions have you made in your own life that you now believe have had the biggest long-term effect on your own living conditions, quality of life, or life circumstances?"

---"We often hear about the turning point in a football game, for instance---the play on the football field that many observers believe to have largely determined the outcome of the game. In your own life so far, what would you identify as your most noteworthy 'turning point' or 'turning points'?"

---"Please tell me about what you regard as having been a bad habit of yours, such as nail-biting or gambling or smoking cigarettes or swearing, that you managed to overcome or at least partly overcome. How did you manage to discontinue or at least partly overcome what you now regard as a bad habit on your part?"

---"If you could live your entire life over again, what would you have done differently?"

---"If you were to someday win a nationwide award, in which category or for which accomplishment of yours would you most want to win that award?"

---"Which careers or vocations did you pursue in a prior year that you don't currently pursue? For instance, did you bag groceries inside a supermarket during your high school or college years?"

---"If you could describe what you would regard as being your ideal or best-possible career and your best-possible living circumstances or living conditions, what would they be like?"

---"Would you be willing to show me your current resume or vita? As an offspring of yours, I would love to learn more about you and your career-related accomplishments."

---"If you were to compile and then bury a time capsule about your own life that you'd be willing to share with Americans of the 22nd Century, for instance, what would you put in that time capsule"?

----"We often think of human beings' lives in terms of the rituals and traditions of theirs to which they were devoted for many years of their life. If you were being interviewed by someone who you agreed at that time to write a biography about you, what would you cite as your most noteworthy rituals and traditions from your entire life so far? Please describe each of those rituals and traditions of yours."

---"We often look upon true friends as persons who help to increase our own freedoms and opportunities and options in life. From that standpoint, which individuals do you believe have been your truest personal friends?"

---"Of the many fine compliments and words of praise for yourself that you have received so far in your life, which compliments or words of praise have inspired you the most and have been of the greatest practical benefit to you? Do you recall who offered you that praise, and the context in which that individual complimented you in that very memorable way?"

---"What have been the various nicknames for yourself that other persons have dubbed you or informally assigned to you so far in your life? Did you like and feel comfortable with each of those nicknames? Did you dislike any of those nicknames?

---"What do you regard as being essential elements in a lasting strictly-mutual-consent personal friendship?"

---"Of the famous people whom you have not yet met, which individual or individuals do you admire and like or love the most? Would you like to receive an autographed photograph of that famous person, and possibly post that photograph of that smiling individual on the wall inside your home?"

Growing Demand for Detective Services that Trace Source of Anonymous Communications

One private-sector industry in the USA that I feel very confident will be thriving in the very near future:

For-profit private detective services that promptly provide documented legal evidence to clients of theirs relating to anonymous communications.

Each of those clients might be seeking to identify the actual source of cited anonymous verbalized communications that had been inflicted on that client---whether in a public place or inside his (or her) private residence---against his wishes.

Those anonymous communications could have occurred in a variety of contexts and in a variety of media (E-mail letters, chain letters, anonymous death threat messages, pranks and criminal mischief, terroristic threats, television or radio media of some type, stalkers exhibiting harmful or criminal intent, hidden sound systems or hidden speakers, noise pollution for which the source is not readily apparent, etc.)

That factual evidence to be obtained for each client by a private-detection agency, might include:

---the cited name of the person or city, at least, that or who in an anonymous manner had inflicted a virus on the computer system of the client.

---the cited name of a media company or media entity that reportedly had videotaped or electronically surveillanced the individual in question without obtaining express prior written consent from himself, and without then formally and directly obtaining from that individual an additional authorization in writing every six or 12 months, say, for any and all such specifically-cited impingements upon the privacy rights of that individual.

That factual information would be invaluable in protecting the privacy rights of law-abiding Americans who value their Freedom of Speech-protected, Freedom of Religion-protected, and Freedom of Association-protected Constitutional right to set their own priorities and choose their own course in life. Law-abiding Americans whose political and religious beliefs differ dramatically from those of the majority of all Americans would particularly benefit from a private-detection service of this type.

---the cited name of the anonymous sex partner of someone who reportedly impregnated that female person or who reportedly infected the latter individual with a sexually transmitted disease (herpes, the HIV virus, syphillis, etc.).

Possible Dilemma From Glow-in-Dark Keyhole

I love the idea of a "glow-in-the-dark" keyhole to the front door of one's private residence.

That glow-in-the-dark keyhole would enable me to immediately find the spot into which I need to insert my key immediately before entering my private residence at nighttime.

(I also love the idea of my owning "glow-in-the-dark" keys, particularly for my motor vehicle and the front door to my private residence, respectively. That would enable me to immediately identify the key I needed in order to unlock the front door to my motor vehicle or unlock the front door of my private residence. And the immediacy of finding the right key could save one's own life, particularly at nighttime.)

It seems to me now, though, that if I ever did have a "glow-in-the-dark" keyhole to the front door of my private residence, that might also get noticed by any hypothetical would-be intruders who ever might attempt to break into my private residence.

It seems, then, that some of the precautionary measures aimed at protecting one's own personal safety and one's belongings might actually have the ironic effect of making it easier for a burglar to break into one's private residence! And this, in turn, might actually jeopardize one's own personal safety!

Domestic Violence Raises Health Insurance Premiums

Many libertarians and anarchists and self-identified "pleasure-seeking" sadomasohcists of Austin, Texas, apparently maintain that "If one partner in a marriage or sexual relationship chooses to physically beat or physically whip his or her partner in person inside their home or apartment or condo unit in a mutual-consent context, this is all privacy-rights-protected and is no concern to the government or to anyone else."

I would like to respond to that callous contention by many libertarians and anarchists and S&M "proponents" of Austin, with the following:

Contrary to what you claim, sadomasochistic physical violence inflicted by one "romantic" partner or "sex" partner upon another inside a private residence does undermine the legal and human rights of others.

It does that by inflicting numerous specific major medical problems on the individuals being victimized by sadomasochistic physical abuse inside their residence. When those individuals eventually seek medical treatment in a hospital or at a medical clinic for medically-observable physical damage to their own bodies resulting from those 'mutual-consent' beatings and whippings, that plays a role in an outrageous increase in the health-insurance premiums that they and many other Americans then have to pay.

Divorce Lawsuits & Gay Divorces from Same-Sex Marriages, Gay Marriages, & Lesbian Marriages, To Reveal Gay Spouse Abuse, Gay marriage scandals

The trend toward legalization of same-sex marriages will, among other things, provide major new legal precedents relating to the crucial human right and essential legal right of a partner from a marriage of that type, to himself (or herself) appear in a public divorce court and publicly as well as lawfully and in a civil manner request and formally obtain a legal divorce from his (or her) spouse.

Those divorce-court proceedings by same-sex marriage partners --- a significant percentage of those divorce-court trials to each involve many weeks or months of courtroom testimony for the plaintiff and for the respondent or defendant --- will inevitably bring with them horrifying and very tangible, factual legal evidence about the living conditions for each partner in those same-sex marriages, including:

---a divorce-court allegation by a "same-sex marriage" estranged spouse seeking $10 million from his defendant spouse for emotional duress, privacy-rights violations, alleged marital rape, and cited personal injuries to the plaintiff, that "a week after we got married, my same-sex-marriage partner confessed to me that he had a secret fetish for necrophilia, and that he wanted to hone his skills at necrophilia by sodomizing me every night while I was sound asleep in the bed where we slept together.

"He told me that since I'm a sound sleeper and could sleep through anything, his having sex with me every night during my sleep on our newlywed bed should not present any problem for me. He added that in a worst-case scenario for myself, I might feel sore in my anus when I woke up the next morning. Then a week later, my same-sex marriage partner informed me that he had decided to exclusively limit our conjugal-relations sex life to sex during my sleep, with no other sexual contact between us, he said. The defendant stated that he found me to be more enjoyably passive and more to his liking when I was sound asleep and completely still at the time. He stated to me that an ideal spouse is someone who offers him complete passivity and complete docility at all times. He also stated that because he found me to be much better in bed when I was completely unconscious, he as my self-described dominant partner had chosen to permanently discontinue any and all sex with me -- or any other physical contact with me, for that matter -- during any of my waking or conscious hours, he said.

"During the daytime and evening hours, the defendant would sometimes state to me that he wanted to have sex with me at that time. He would then immediately order me to take a sleeping pill in his presence, and to myself immediately lie in bed in our bedroom. When I woke up hours later, and often this was at about 11 p.m. when I normally would have gone to sleep, I often found semen in my anus and semen in my mouth. Sometimes the defendant would greet me at that time by stating to me, 'You were terrific in bed today! Too bad you missed all the fun I had with you!"

---a courtroom allegation by the plaintiff that "the defendant was repressive and grotesquely censorious and toxically heterophobic---he was a vicious straight-basher, and I disliked him intensely for that and other reasons. During the first week of our same-sex marriage, the defendant prohibited me from listening to any musical recordings inside our condo unit that were being sung by masculine heterosexual men or by heterosexual women. In fact, the defendant grabbed all of my 100 CDs and DVDs featuring masculine heterosexual male singers and heterosexual female singers, and he threw every one of them into the trash can with what he later admitted to have been 'gay capriciousness and gay rage on my part,' as he confessed to me a day later.

"At the time of his censorious conduct in that way, the defendant stated to me with viciousness in his voice: 'All of the music that I would ever permit you to listen to inside our condo unit must be music sung by effeminate male gays, lesbians, transsexuals, and bisexuals." Your Honor, I suffered severe emotional duress and increased blood pressure from being subjected to high-pitched, shrill, very unattractive gay and transsexual voices from the musical recordings that the defendant inflicted on me. I also found the defendant-approved lesbian singers' political and religious and philosophical messages to be repressively anti-masculine-male, repressively heterophobic, and very lacking in insight. I wanted a divorce from the defendant within 24 hours after we got married, and this was one of the hundreds of reasons why I am very comprehensively incompatible with the defendant. Your Honor, I am seeking today in this courtroom $1 million from the defendant in damages for the severe emotional duress and distress that he inflicted on me during the very traumatic and very injurious three-week period in which we lived together before I moved out on him and filed for this divorce."

---a courtroom statement by the plaintiff during a "same-sex-marriage" divorce proceeding that "I never agreed to be married to the defendant. Your Honor, I allege that the defendant secretly bribed a gay judge friend of his into granting him a marriage license citing myself as the spouse---all without my being given any say in the matter. In fact, your Honor, the signature of authorization for the so-called 'marriage' that the defendant claims he obtained from myself was fraudulent. I myself never attended any wedding ceremony, any wedding reception, or any honeymoon of any type that involved the defendant and myself in any way. Your Honor, I allege that the defendant did, in fact, kidnap me and hold me hostage inside his home. I further allege that the defendant repeatedly admitted to me inside his home where he held me hostage until I recently escaped, that he regarded me as being 'a rare breed of subhuman household pet that won't put me at risk of anyone accusing me of bestiality if I sodomize my pet in front of a VIP gay civic leader who is visiting me inside my home at the time.'"

--the transcript of a shocking statement in divorce court proceeding that "my spouse confessed to me during the third week of our same-sex marriage that he was an incurable sexaholic who had failed all three of the sexual-addiction treatment programs he had undergone in prior years. He also told me that he was so addicted to having indiscriminate sex with a wide variety of anonymous sex partners, that an ongoing relationship he was having with a nearby farm animal had made him unfaithful to me as of our second week of marriage.

"The defendant stated to me that in the first two weeks of our marriage, he had had carnal relations with a lamb on five separate occasions. The defendant also stated to me that during periods when I myself was away from our home, he would visit a nearby gay male farmer friend of his and then pay his gay farmer friend $10 in order to then sodomize a lamb owned by that gay farmer. The defendant also confessed to me that his rear-entry extramarital sexual experiences with the farm-animal lamb were far more enjoyable to him than having sex with myself ever was."

--a court-room confession by an estranged "spouse" from a "same-sex marriage" that he himself had long been physically and aesthetically and morally repulsed by, and repulsed by the personality and locution and political and religious ideology of, the individual who had pressured him into getting married to that individual. "I had to pretend I was looking at someone else in order to myself fake a smile at that unsightly and very unpleasant individual who claimed to be my spouse," the estranged spouse might well testify in divorce court.

"I was amazed that he never revealed any awareness of my being physically repulsed by himself. His vanity and solipsism were so pervasive that that he lacked the human capacity to comprehend any critical outlook toward himself by an honest human being such as myself."

---a courtroom allegation by the plaintiff from a same-sex marriage divorce-court proceeding that "the defendant repeatedly physically beat me and physically whipped me and verbally assaulted me using profane language in retaliation against myself after I very honestly and in a civil manner on my part stated my honest opinion to my same-sex marriage spouse that I myself am physically repulsed by male adult effeminacy, by the stench of the perfumes worn by many effeminate male adult persons, by cross-gender-dressing on the part of male adult persons, by sadomasochistic practices, by any and all facial hair on male adult persons, by baldness atop the head in male adult persons, by the vast majority of all adult male persons older than myself in age, by adult male persons who are prematurely aged, by alcoholics, by tattoos on human bodies, by nostril rings, by tongue rings, by ear rings on male adult persons, by jewelry on male adult persons, by male adult persons who smoke or consume any tobacco products, by male adult persons who repeatedly consume illicit drugs, and by habitual profane speech on the part of the defendant and other persons."

---a formal divorce-court statement by the plaintiff form a same-sex marriage that "my allergy specialist doctor determined for me within the first month of my marriage to the defendant that I was, in fact, allergic to him from a documented medical standpoint. He was like a sly and feline cat, and I myself was very canine, and cats and dogs do not mix. I sneezed and wheezed and coughed repeatedly and incessantly in the defendant's presence, and my skin broke out in hives from exposure to my same-sex partner. My allergy specialist physician asked me to bring samples of my same-sex partner's hair follicles and perspiration, including a workout suit that my partner had worn during strenuous exercise, and photographs of my partner. My allergy specialist then determined through diligent medical testing of myself at his medical laboratory that I am, in fact, physically and medically allergic to my spouse. Even after my spouse agreed to change his brand of soap and his underarm deodorant, the results from medical testing by that allergy specialist were exactly the same. Your Honor, I am asking for $500,000 in damages relating to the emotional duress I was subjected to from marrying someone who had specifically told me he refused to meet with my allergy specialist in my presence before the wedding took place. Had the defendant agreed to be tested by my allergy specialist in my presence before the scheduled date for our wedding, that marriage ceremony would never have occurred. This would have spared me from lots of needless suffering that I endured from being married to the defendant."

---a formal courtroom allegation by a plaintiff in a same-sex marriage divorce-court proceeding that "the defendant verbally harassed me with obscene speech, a violation of the state penal code of Texas and a criminal offense on his part, every day of our multi-month marriage. Your Honor, I am seeking $5 million from the defendant for emotional duress, character assassination, and violations of the state penal code he victimized me with through his incessant verbal abuse of me in which he chose to verbalize profane speech directed at myself."

--courtroom confessions and allegations in divorce-court legal proceedings about an addiction by one or both "spouses" in that "same-sex marriage" to their paying money to frequent gay bathhouses or other commercial sex parlors and engage in anonymous sex there with a wide variety of anonymous sex partners;

--divorce-court confessions and allegations about participation in sex orgies involving indiscriminate sex with a wide variety of sex partners by one or both partners in any given same-sex "marriage", with the cited lubricant of Mazola oil generally being poured all over the floor of their condo unit by the defendant as he prepared to host an orgy party;

--divorce-court confessions and allegations by one spouse or both that during their years of "same-sex marriage" together, one or both of those spouses repeatedly paid a "prostitute" money in exchange for that sexual prostitute having sex with either himself or his self-described "marriage partner";

---a divorce-court statement by the plaintiff from a same-sex marriage that "he had told me repeatedly over our multi-week period of dating each other that if I agreed to marry him, I would definitely be the sole and exclusive beneficiary of his entire estate. That was the only reason for marrying him that he ever offered me during the entire three-week period in which we dated as new acquaintances who'd never met before. Then after those three weeks ended and we got married and were living together, the defendant suddenly informed me that he had changed his mind. He had decided to leave all of his estate to his favorite art museum, which he said is named after his own all-time favorite artist, Andy Warhol----a famous drug addict, if you don't mind my saying so, Your Honor.

"Your Honor, I am alleging today through this $1 million lawsuit I've filed against the defendant in this court of law that it was very mentally cruel and fraudulent advertising on the part of the defendant to have repeatedly promised me his entire multi-million-dollar estate just before we got married, only to himself then pull that rug under my feet very abruptly.

"The defendant knew perfectly well that before I agreed to marry him he had repeatedly assured me that his doctors had told him that because of his own cited terminal illness, he'd only have six more months to live, meaning that I could enjoy being a happy widower later that same year. That repeated promise from the defendant was the only thing that made his marriage offer at all palatable to me. I could barely eat or drink while sitting across from him, since his gaunt and prune-faced presence always reminded me of a corpse on display at a wake inside a Catholic church. And the defendant did state to me several times that 'I can see you don't find me appetizing, but hopefully the green you'll soon be into, with my help, will whet your appetite just six months from now. I hope this six-month waiting period before you get your money will strike you as being only a minor inconvenience.'

"Your Honor, I also allege in this court of law that the defendant is guilty of fraudulent advertising, and that he owes me $1 million on that basis as well as part of our court-ordered divorce settlement."

---a divorce-court allegation by one estranged "spouse" from a "same-sex marriage" that the individual being sued in that divorce court proceeding "was very intolerant of and contemptuous my own lawful and platonically polite form of heterophilia, in which I felt comfortable with, felt calmer around, and agreed to myself associate with a significantly higher percentage of all masculine heterosexual adult men and of all heterosexual adult women, than of all homosexual adult male persons, gay adult male persons, effeminate male adult persons, transvestite persons, transsexual persons, or lesbian adult female persons. The defendant refused to take any phone messages for me that came from anyone whom he labeled as being either 'straight' or a 'hetero.'

"That repressive censoriousness toward myself by the defendant severely undermined my own quality of life and level of happiness as a human being. Also, the defendant habitually deleted from the inbox of my own personal Internet mail on my personal computer any friendly E-mail communication to me that ever was sent to me by a heterosexual adult man or a heterosexual adult woman. 'Breeders are a bane to my existence!' the defendant would shout with rage in his voice. I never once heard the defendant say anything nice in my presence about anyone whom he labeled as being a breeder, straight, or a hetero."

---a divorce-court statement from a plaintiff from a same-sex marriage that "the defendant repeatedly ridiculed me for being very generous and friendly and kind to youths under age 17. 'The only relationships that count are the ones involving genital contact and orgasms,' the defendant would declare. 'You are foolish when you spend so much of your leisuretime being nice and polite to youths. It makes no sense for you to spend any time with under-age youths, since they're irrelevant. The only persons who count, as any gay activist will tell you, are the ones you can have sex with inside a gay bathhouse and not get arrested for it. Everyone else you encounter is a nobody, from a true gay vantage point. Children are interesting only when they reach legal age. Until they have blown out 17 or 18 candles on their birthday cake, children are a subpopulation I completely ignore. They don't exist, in my eyes, until it's legal to get lewd with them, if you get my drift.

"It infuriates me," the defendant continued, "that you continue to show a very unnatural avuncular or brotherly or paternal, sometimes maternal, devotion to male youths, and to some female youths as well! It's as if you're trying to turn our same-sex marriage into a disgustingly wholesome and G-rated Walt Disney movie! The whole point of our same-sex marriage was to produce a scandalous year-round porno movie that could still, but just barely, keep each of us out of jail.

"That, to me," the defendant stated, "is the whole point of a gay lifestyle: Be outrageous, immoral, and offensive at all times, but somehow avoid going to jail, since you know how to be technically---but just barely----in compliance with the law."

---a divorce-court statement from the plaintiff from a "same-sex marriage" that "the defendant joined a gay terrorist group without my prior knowledge or prior consent n a week after we got married. He and his gay terrorist group members then developed a secret 'enemies list' of each and every noteworthy individual residing in their metro area whom that gay terrorist group had classified as being either 'homophobic' or 'anti-gay.' That gay terrorist group would then target each and every person listed on that 'enemies list' for constant and year-round verbal abuse, including anonymous death threats being hurled at those cited 'enemies of gays' on a year-round basis, and other acts of vicious reprisal on a year-round basis."

---a divorce-court statement from the plaintiff from a same-sex marriage that "the defendant assured me when he married me in our same-sex marriage that he would not try to force a sex-change operation on me. After he married me, though, he repeatedly accused me of 'not being passive enough or effeminate enough,' and the defendant would beat me with a whip and chain 'to make you more passive,' as he would put it. The defendant also repeatedly made verbal threats to me that he would somehow get power of attorney authority over me, and would then force a sex-change operation on me by court order.

"'Once your penis is removed by court-ordered surgery, that should make you passive and very submissive, and more receptive to me in our condo unit when I'm in the mood for S&M,' the defendant would then state to me with a sneer in his facial expression."

---a divorce-court allegation by the plaintiff that "the defendant at our same-sex wedding ceremony inserted a huge and gaudy ring on my index finger that featured a two-word message which glows in the dark. That two-word message was 'F-ck me!'. I turned beet red at the wedding ceremony, Your Honor!"

---a divorce-court statement by the plaintiff from a same-sex marriage that "the defendant in one of his many dramatic whims suddenly announced that he would name one room of his mansion as 'Jay's S&M Room.' The defendant, Jay, would resolve any verbal argument I had with him by dragging me kicking and screaming into his S&M Room. There, he would beat me with a whip until I fell unconscious. At that point, he would sodomize me while I was still unconscious. The defendant repeatedly stated to me that "my S&M Room was created by me to domesticate you, since you're a wild gay animal that needs to be tamed. Until you cease to ever disagree with me about anything, and until you instead nod your head at me in complete and passive agreement with me whenever I talk to you, you will always be forcefully dragged by me to my S&M room for additional torture.'"

---a divorce-court allegation by the plaintiff from a failed same-sex marriage that that "five days after he met me, the defendant asked me to marry him ASAP. He proposed marriage to me despite his having never chosen to ever once state to me his own religious affiliation, his own political ideology, his own racial or ethnic identity, his actual legal age, his full legal name, his nation of birth, his complete medical history, his expected lifespan or longevity, his favorite pastimes or hobbies, or which personality traits he sought in a spouse.

"Your Honor, I can also state for the record that the defendant never once posed to me any question on any occasion before we got married. He presented everything, including the marriage proposal, in command form, since he took pride in being the strong silent type who is very domineering and intimidating. He repeatedly stated to me that he admired and emulated Arnold Schwarzenegger, and the defendant repeatedly boasted to me that he, too, is good with a gun. In fact, the defendant pistol-whipped me on my face during our Honeymoon night inside our hotel room. He did that while shouting at me that my oral-sex-sodomy performance with him, in which he alleged that I had left tooth marks on his penis, had been inexcusably unsatisfactory on my part.

"Your Honor, I finally found the courage to reject him two days after our wedding ceremony, and I feared for my life when I did finally speak up. He glared at me with very intense hatred, and then the defendant angrily stated to me that I was required to live up to the terms of our five-year marriage contract that he had gotten me to sign the day before our wedding. He then stated that he planned to sue me in a court of law for failing to comply in full with the five-year marriage contract agreement that I had signed."



---a divorce-court confession by an estranged spouse from a failed "same-sex marriage" that "at no time during our courtship period leading to our marriage was either of us sober for more than five consecutive hours. We were both either high on drugs or alcohol, or experiencing an awful hangover, throughout the entire courtship period.

"Your Honor, I am now humbly asking you today to please rule that our marriage contract is null and void. Each of us was drunk as a skunk when we signed that legal contract, and both of us at our wedding ceremony were so high on alcohol and drugs that we could have been on top of Mount Everest at the time. Your Honor, I maintain that the vows we exchanged at our wedding were fraudulent and illegitimate, since neither of us could have passed a sobriety test at the time."

---a divorce-court statement by the estranged "spouse" from a failed same-sex marriage attempt that "after we got married, I suddenly noticed a hidden camera in our bedroom and near our living room sofa. It turned out that my 'spouse' was a paid professional actor who had signed a special 'Reality Television' professional-services contract with ABC Television Network, aimed at broadcasting to the entire world a sensational series of 'juicy vignettes' from a same-sex marriage.

"Your Honor, I ask you today to please rule that the defendant's flagrant defiance of my own privacy rights, along with what I now maintain was his actual career identity as a paid professional actor who faked everything we ever did together in our marriage---and I now suspect, your Honor, that even the defendant's orgasms during our marriage were completely fraudulent and slyly faked on his part----render our entire marriage contract null and void."

--a divorce-court statement by one estranged "spouse" from that "same-sex marriage" that his "spouse" had illegally obtained power of attorney authority over himself in their marriage, and had illegally committed him to a psychiatric institution for a multi-year period "because the defendant alleged that I exhibited a greater emotional and intellectual and political and religious and personal and aesthetic-based affinity toward, and greater overall human identification with, a significantly higher percentage of all heterosexual adult men and all heterosexual adult women than of all gay male adult persons, all homosexual adult male persons, all effeminate male adult persons, or all lesbian adult persons.

"And during that multi-year period of psychiatric confinement for me, the defendant added 500 new sex partners to his black book, based on what he himself stated and showed me in his black book after I was released from psychiatric commitment."

---a shocking courtroom statement by an estranged spouse from a same-sex marriage in divorce court that "the defendant assured me that in our mutual-consent marriage we would both get to vote on any and all major decisions relating to our household. Not until after we got married did he then explain that he alone held the authority to resolve any of our tie votes, since he owned the condominium unit in which we were living.

"What I particularly dreaded was the tie vote we had that led to a tie-breaker vote from himself, making every Saturday inside our condo unit an S&M Day. On that day, I would consider myself very fortunate if he spanked me only 80 times, rather his customary 100 times on S&M Day every Saturday. He told me repeatedly that spanking me gave him more pleasure than anything else he ever did with me."

---a shocking courtroom statement by an estranged spouse from a same-sex marriage in a divorce-court proceeding that "the defendant incorrectly claimed to me on a repeated basis that he held legal authority over me, when in fact he had no such legal authority. Also, he repeatedly forbade me from ever myself associating with any masculine men. I was told by the defendant that only the effeminate or very effeminate male adult persons or female or transsexual persons were permitted by the defendant to associate with myself in any aspect of my life.

"The restrictions and prohibitions on my own lifestyle by the defendant were so arbitrary, severe, and repressive that several of my masculine men friends whom I'd known before I got married, decided to fake effeminacy on their part whenever they were observed in public with myself. This was the only strategy they knew for protecting me against the risk of my being beaten and whipped and spanked 100 times by the defendant after I returned home from a social outing with a masculine male adult friend of mine."

--a shocking courtroom statement in divorce court by the estranged spouse from a same-sex marriage that "the defendant was so intrigued by snuff movies that he would order me to pose as 'the victim' in a home movie he was making inside our condo unit that was designed to replicate a snuff movie while keeping the victim still alive, he repeatedly assured me. During one of those snuff movie-inspired home movies he produced with me, he cut me real badly with a kitchen knife.

"He then explained that he had forgotten that he was doing a 'just pretend' version of a snuff movie with me, and that he was willing to pay for my emergency visit to the hospital on that. Fortunately, I only needed 50 stitches for that injury."

---a courtroom statement by one estranged spouse from a same-sex marriage in a divorce-court proceeding that "the defendant told me during our Honeymoon just after we got married that his leading goal in life was to own a Black Book that contained the names of 5,000 sex partners of his, along with his evaluation of how each of them rated during the sex act.

"He also told me during our Honeymoon, for the first time ever, that I was his 500th sex partner, and he had chosen to marry me because he liked the number 500 quite a bit. However, he still felt very determined to reach 5,000 total sex partners over the course of his lifetime, and he planned to divorce me at some future point in order to marry his 1,000th sex partner, he admitted during our Honeymoon. 'I love the idea of marrying my 1,000th sex partner,' he stated to me at one point."

---a courtroom confession by the plaintiff from a failed same-sex marriage attempt in a divorce-court legal proceeding that "the defendant told everyone who visited our condo unit during our years as a married couple that his own favorite hobby was collecting dildos. He would always tell each guest inside our condo unit that he savored the phallic symbolism of dildos. He would always add that he wanted his dildo collection to be 'very unique', as he put it, so he had a tradition of buying one new dildo within a week after he had added one more sex partner to his 'gay black book,' as he called it.

"The defendant would name each new dildo he'd purchased after his most recent extra-marital sex partner. When he couldn't remember that sex partner's first name----which happened frequently, such as when he had just had anonymous sex inside a public men's restroom at Penn Central Station in New York City----he would simply invent a fictional name for that sex partner out of thin air. A bit like the way weathermen name hurricanes, except that all of his personal hurricanes, so to speak---those new dildos he purchased with glee--- bore the first names of men."

---a divorce-court allegation by the complainant, an estranged spouse from a same-sex marriage that had failed, that "the defendant blackmailed me into marrying him. He did that by repeatedly warning me that if I refused to marry him, he would contact the local police department and the local prosecuting attorney's office, the county attorney's office, the FBI, and the Internal Revenue Service. He'd then immediately turn over to each of those government agencies all the criminal-law legal evidence on me that he had secretly obtained, including through secret videotapings of me he had paid for surreptitiously.

"He warned me that that criminal-law evidence about me would prove that I myself was addicted to illicit drugs, I myself was a drug dealer, I myself had cheated on my income taxes, and that I myself had committed at least five felony sex crimes in the most recent 12-month period, he repeatedly emphasized to me. I agreed to marry him only because I feared going to prison from being convicted of those crimes. I feared going to prison because I knew I would have gotten raped in prison. Our wedding and marriage was a complete farce, since I would NEVER have agreed to marry that sadistic and repulsive older man had it not been for all the "dirt" he had on me that he used against me in that very ruthless, nasty, and heavy-handed manner!"

---a divorce-court allegation by the plaintiff from a same-sex marriage that "the defendant ordered me to go on a liquid diet during our same-sex marriage. The defendant stated to me that if I was on a liquid diet in which I abstained from consuming any solid foods, this would spare my spouse from ever encountering any manure when he sodomized me during anal intercourse. He stated to me that it was a turn-off to him to encounter manure in my anus during anal intercourse. After I complied in full with his liquid-diet demand, I lost 50 pounds over a four-week period and was so thin that the defendant stated he found me unappetizing. He then ordered me to put on 40 pounds ASAP. He stated it was a 'turn-off' for him to have anal intercourse with a 'human skeleton,' the defendant stated."

---a courtroom allegation by the complainant estranged spouse from a same-sex marriage, this in a divorce-court proceeding, that "the defendant admitted to me during our Honeymoon five hours after we got married in a civil ceremony that 'the only reason why I married you is that it will help me in my business career. It will lend respectability to me as a businessman, since you yourself have a reputation for being honest and civil and hygienic and HIV-negative and law-abiding, and you also have a reputation for not being a drug addict or alcoholic, which is quite rare these days.
"'Everyone will assume we're monogamous together, but I need to let you know from the start that I'll be playing musical beds on all of my out-of-town business trips. The only thing I can promise you about my many out-of-town business trips to San Francisco, Los Angeles, Minneapolis, Chicago, and New York is that I will always use a condom. I hope you find that reassuring. I can also promise you that during my in-town business trips within the metro area where we live, I will make every effort to not embarrass you. That's as far as I can promise you at this time. I'll be discreet about whatever I do away from our condo unit, if that's any consolation to you.'"

---a courtroom statement by a same-sex marriage partner complainant in a divorce-court proceeding that 'the defendant was so sex-crazed that during our wedding ceremony, he insisted on reading a poem he had written about his own deep love for condoms and the orgasms that condoms have enabled him to achieve.

"His poem was entitled 'Condom Copulation Joy.' I found it embarrassing to hear him recite his poem aloud at our wedding ceremony, particularly since he made no statement about loving me myself, as a human being, at our wedding ceremony."

---a courtroom allegation by a same-sex marriage partner complainant in a divorce-court proceeding that "the defendant habitually attended weekly all-male strip-poker games hosted by a gay friend of his, with the identity of the players in that parlor game varying from one week to the next. Not only did the defendant in calendar year 2008 lose $10,000 of my own money during those strip-poker games, but he admitted to me later that he enjoyed losing those games, since it gave him a chance to show off his 'beautiful bod', as he put it.

"He also admitted to me that whenever he had stripped down to his underwear at those games, the other gay male strip-poker players found him irresistible. 'I don't blame them, either,' he used to tell me each week. 'I have a terrific bod, and I would get turned on myself when another player would strip down to his underwear.' It turned out that the defendant added five new cases of gonorrhoea, syphilis, and chlamydia and herpes last year to his medical history. His excuse each time was that it would have been 'unnatural' for gay men to play strip-poker together without an orgy resulting from it all, he used to tell me."

---court-room confessions by one spouse from a "same-sex marriage" that he had ordered his "spouse" to engage in the crime of sexual prostitution with one or more male persons as the illicit customers, with the resulting payments of money from those illicit customers then being used to pay that household's monthly bills.

---"courtroom testimony by the estranged spouse from a "same-sex marriage" that "the defendant literally held me down and forced me to endure vulgar and degrading tatoos he had emblazoned all over my body, including on each of my arms, that each stated, 'I'm a Sex Slave of My Spouse!", 'I'm Property of My Spouse', 'I'm a Sex Toy of My Spouse,' and 'S&M Turns Me On!

---divorce-court testimony by one "spouse" from that "same-sex marriage" that he or she had observed direct evidence that his "spouse" in that "marriage" had an illicit involvement with organized crime, such as through illicit ties to an illicit "nightclub" or an illicit gambling casino or an illicit "resort," or otherwise violated the law and committed a felony crime, such as through shockingly illegal and injurious pederastic sexual involvements with minors or through deliberate cheating on their own income taxes.

--testimony by one estranged spouse that "my same-sex marriage partner repeatedly forced me to eat my own excrement inside our home. It was one of the most disgusting experiences of my entire life!

He also claimed that he was a certified attorney, and he stated to me that the State Bar of Texas state agency in Austin has permitted him to verbally abuse me as he wished, because it is considered legal in Texas for an attorney to verbally harass and publicly disparage and pervasively violate the privacy rights of and attempt to brainwash his own client, he repeatedly stated to me. However, he later admitted to me that he himself had harmful intent or criminal intent toward myself, and that he hoped to seize all of my sizable estate, including all of my millions or billions of dollars worth of property wealth, after I died young, since he was sure that no one would blame him for seizing all of my estate in tha scenario."

--mental cruelty exhibited by one same-sex-marriage spouse toward another;

--confessions by one "spouse" in a "same-sex marriage" that "I regarded my same-sex marriage partner as so intellectually and culturally inferior to myself and so weak as a conversation partner, and so unpleasant to me, that I almost never spoke with him or went on social outings with him.

"Nearly all of the time I spent with him during my waking or conscious hours was limited to the sex act per se, which was about 15 minutes per day, at most. Any other activity with him would have been inconceivable to me. He was a guaranteed sex partner for me, and that was all."

He said he wanted me to be as self-reliant as possible, in case our marriage were to fail. So I ended up with no health insurance at all, and my complete certainty that I'd been betrayed by him from day one!"

---divorce-court testimony by one estranged partner in that same-sex marriage that "I agreed to get married to him only after he repeatedly threatened to kill me if I didn't. He repeatedly warned me that if I didn't agree to his demand that I marry him, he would do everything in his power to cause me to die young.

'You are my slave, and you must be totally submissive toward me at all times!', the defendant would state with anger in his voice."

---testimony by one estranged spouse from a same-sex marriage in divorce court that "he promised me just before we got married that he has no involvement of any type with any illicit drug. Then one week after we got married, I suddenly discovered his Big Bong Collection hidden away in his bedroom closet. It turned out he had been collecting marijuana bongs as his favorite hobby for the last 10 years, and he never told me about that before we tied the knot.

"He told me he regards Marijuana Bongs as the Ultimate Phallic Symbol. When I asked him why he had lied to me, he replied that he hadn't. He told me he doesn't consider marijuana to be an illicit drug, since medical doctors sometimes prescribe marijuana for their patients in states like Oregon and California, he said."

---divorce-court allegations by the estranged lesbian partner from a lesbian marriage in which she states to the court that "my female spouse was addicted to collecting dildos as her primary pastime, and she would spend hundreds of dollars a month on purchasing new dildos to add to her collection. She owned 10,000 dildos of a wide variety of sizes, and she frequently stated to me that she would not be happy until she owned at least 1 million dildos ranging in length from five inches to 20 inches. I nearly went into bankruptcy because of my female spouse's dildo-crazed spending sprees. Your Honor, I am alleging in this divorce lawsuit that my female lesbian partner exhibited mental cruelty and infidelity toward me in that and other ways."
