		<description>Nice strawman, Bithead, but, of course, this wouldn&#039;t be the first time you used that tactic...the only homophobes who have shown themselves on this thread are markm and Zelsdorf Ragshaft III...their ridiculous comments speak for themselves...</description>

		<description>I&#039;m announcing the formation of &lt;i&gt;&lt;b&gt;Call In Straight Or For Fun&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/i&gt;(pronounced &#039;Kiss-Off&#039;) to show how much the country relies on straight men and women. This will be a floating Holiday chosen every year. For 2009 the date is July 6, to make for a 4 day weekend.</description>

		<description>So what&#039;s wrong about having a gay country with gay people? Just imagine the positive effects on the economy. I think we need more optimism and gayness nowadays in order to get out of the financial crisis.</description>

		<description>If I were gay, I&#039;d recommend doing this on a Friday or Monday so you at least get a three-day weekend out of the deal.</description>

		<description>Riiiiing
Hello, Manning and Company.
Mann, this is  Bill, I am calling in Gay.
Bill, you aren&#039;t Gay.
I know, but I am supporting Gays today.
Bill, we have work that needs doing today, are you going to get it done or not.
No, Mann, I am calling in to say I am not coming in, to support Gays.
Well, Bill, you may think you are supporting Gays somewhere in the world, but what you are doing is hurting my company at a critical time. I need you here.
Sorry Mann, but it can wait till tomorrow, I think. I want to do this.
Bill, what you think about the urgency is not the issue, that is for me to decide. I need you here today and tomorrow, are you coming in or not?
No, Mann, I am not.
Fine, then you can consider yourself on two week&#039;s notice, and you needn&#039;t come in at all.
I will have your severance check mailed to you.
Good luck.</description>
