There's no way THIS can go wrong...

The 2010 California Marriage Protection Act would follow up on Prop 8, by amending the state constitution to ban divorce in the State of California.  According to the author John Marcotte, this would be the best way to defend traditional marriage, and naturally all the people who voted for Prop. 8 will vote for this one, since they really just want to defend marriage.  After all, voting for Prop. 8 and not 2010CMPA would make them a bunch of homophobic hypocrites right?

The only problem with this joke is it may actually get on the ballot, and hen we'll end up with divorce being illegal in California.  And then we'll be dealing with swarms of Republicans screaming because they suddenly can't divorce...hm.  Maybe Mr. Marcotte has something here.

ON Craigslist: Wanted, professional player, $50.00/hour.

I honestly don't know what to think of this job offer, as seen on Craigslist:

I need to hire a person to play World of Warcraft with me. This person must be at least a Rival+ in arena healing and be able to assist me in getting to arena rating of 2000+. You will need to be able to play at least 3hrs per day during the week and 5hrs over the weekend. You will also need to be able to play a DK to farm honor for items. You *MUST* be trustworthy, helpful, have vent WITH MIC, and not have an holy-then-tho attitude. I have a priest account but you may have to move your healer over to Eitrigg PVE. Must be able to start ASAP (like NOW)!

• Compensation: Pay is $50.00 (USD) per hour played and it goes up to $100 (USD) per hour played after rating of 1850 plus a bonus of up to $5000 (USD) for a rating of 2350
• Telecommuting is ok.
• This is a part-time job.
• This is a contract job.
• OK to highlight this job opening for persons with disabilities
• Principals only. Recruiters, please don't contact this job poster.
• Please, no phone calls about this job!
• Please do not contact job poster about other services, products or commercial interests.

I honeslty don't know what to think about this job offer: whether to be amazed at someone so obsessed with wow (and yet so estranged from online friends) that they need to hire a healer, to regard it with a cynical "nice work if you can get it" attitude...or to gnashh my teeth because I no longer have a WoW account.
