What's In A Nam?

Wednesday, March 10, 2004

My decision to leave my City job my have changed in the recent development within City Hall. Sure I won't get married anytime soon, but knowing that the City of San Jose will extend my medical and retirements rights to my partner is a good argument to stay with the City. I don't want to stay but once again the benefits the City offers is just too great. Maybe I will search for a job within the City. Graduation is nearing and I should be looking for a job. All attempts have come up short. Decisions, decisions. I will leave this blog with two quotes, tell me who sounds more rational.

"I don't live my life in fear of my God," Gonzales said in response to a resident who compared California to Sodom, the ancient city that God destroyed for its wickedness. "I hope when I have the opportunity to meet my God ... he or she will say, 'Good job.'"

Larry Shoemaker quoted an Old Testament verse and brought a flashlight to council chambers because, he said, an earthquake and power outage would strike if the city recognized same-sex marriage. Shoemaker said he'd been fearing retribution since 1976, when he moved closer to "the fruits and nuts and freaks of San Jose."
