Many of you have probably already heard about the gay rights protest outside the Los Angeles Temple this afternoon, which you can watch via Connor's blog. And most of you have probably seen the completely bigoted anti-Mormon commercial that aired on California TV on Tuesday as well.

Here's why Proposition 8 needs to pass (and why homeschooling is going to become more and more appealing to parents):
Pushing same-sex marriage in schools is wrong, sure, but the frightening thing is that the father in the video got ...
I'm an uncle!
Kylie was actually born on Saturday, so this post is a bit overdue. (I am ashamed. But I did give birth to a magazine over the weekend, so let's just pretend it's Saturday all over again, okay? Okay. :P) Anyway, all's ...
