Joe Moderate: of Cannon and Fireworks
http://joemoderate.blogspot.com/2012/07/on-cannon-and-fireworks.html
Thoughts on faith, family, science, orientation, politics and just ordinary stuff. Sunday, July 1, 2012. Of Cannon and Fireworks. C and I are looking forward to our first 4th of July in Boston. The Boston Pops gives a free outdoor performance the night of the 4th, culminating in a full-blown performance of Tchaikovsky's 1812 Overture. Apparently all the church bells in Boston are rung while the US Navy choir sings and the Howitzer cannon fire over the Charles. Happy birthday, America. Being Gay and Coptic.

Thoughts on faith, family, science, orientation, politics and just ordinary stuff. Sunday, October 30, 2011. My apologies to my hordes of dedicated readers; we've been quite busy the last few weeks. In this post I'll try to catch you up on the recent goings-on in the Moderate household. In the meantime, we've finally finished moving in to our apartment in Lowell! This weekend we traveled to Salem to explore the town with some new friends we recently met. As this was Halloween weekend, the town was li...

Joe Moderate: November 2012
http://joemoderate.blogspot.com/2012_11_01_archive.html
Thoughts on faith, family, science, orientation, politics and just ordinary stuff. Saturday, November 17, 2012. Brought Me To Tears. My husband likes to surf music videos. This afternoon we were cuddled on the couch with the iPad and he was showing me his favorite videos that he has come across this week. This one really caught me off guard. I literally started sobbing at 5:00. And then we held each other for a long time. I'm the luckiest man in the world. Sunday, November 4, 2012. Races Joe is Following.

Thoughts on faith, family, science, orientation, politics and just ordinary stuff. Saturday, June 9, 2012. C found this on the internet this week and I thought it was too. Accurate to not post, particularly the parts about deporting the stranger and torturing those in prison. Youre such a liberal, Joe! June 10, 2012 at 7:05 AM. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom). Just a guy from Texas who likes hiking and embedded control systems married to a guy from Iowa who likes hiking and self-healing polymers.

Thoughts on faith, family, science, orientation, politics and just ordinary stuff. Sunday, November 4, 2012. Races Joe is Following. C and I have been talking a lot this weekend about the upcoming election on Tuesday. So many interesting races and ballot measures. I thought I'd bring this blog back from the dead to document the ones I'm paying the closest attention to. I've highlighted. The ones that I will be voting on this Tuesday. Incumbent Barack Obama (D) vs. Mitt Romney (R). Incumbent John Tierney ...

Joe Moderate: December 2011
http://joemoderate.blogspot.com/2011_12_01_archive.html
Thoughts on faith, family, science, orientation, politics and just ordinary stuff. Friday, December 30, 2011. The Downside of Living in a State with Marriage Equality. The full title of this blog should actually read: "The downside of living in a state with marriage equality while DOMA is still the federal law of the land."). But this has always been the case for us. There is nothing new along those lines this year. C and I must now generate three federal 1040s every year. This will be the requisite proc...

Thoughts on faith, family, science, orientation, politics and just ordinary stuff. Thursday, July 28, 2011. It Works in BOTH Temporal Directions. The Best Things in Life. 1 Walking out of work and seeing the man I love waiting for me in the car. 2 Taking walks with him in the evenings. 3 Looking over websites of potential future apartments with him. 4 Laughing with him over red wine and his handmade caprese salads. 5 Falling asleep next to him. Every night. I love this marriage thing :-). Epic Win: Focus...
