I thought I read for a sec he hated penguins.

Of COURSE this is dangerous!!! I mean, what child wouldn't CHOOSE to be gay? I mean, look at all the cool things they get, all the social status you get for being gay, the preferential treatment gay people receive...

Logically, if a child's book can turn you gay, then couldn't we just hand them a copy of "Fun with Dick and Jane" and turn them back straight again?

Becaude sexuality is a CHOICE. We all CHOSE to be straight. But remember, at ANY moment, you can just change your mind and be a flaming transexual hair-dresser who loves buff german guys.

In that vein, I think I'll write my own children's book, where one of the penguins chooses to be black.

Also, it had to be a slow news day when that made the front page of Yahoo news.

One of the first full sentances I spoke to my child after arriving home from the hospital, while watching TV:

"That's right baby, the media LIES!".

To quote House "Everybody lies."

But yeah, the media seems to be doing an excellent job of it lately.
