  • Paul Cox wrote a new blog post: YouTube message response   1 year, 4 months ago

    I posted a comment on a video and received the following in a message addressed to me. I’ve left all the spelling as original, and have only fixed the formatting for readability. Below that is my response.

    SUBJECT: God is real friend

    One would seek him according to his word you will find him, and clearly see [...]

  • Paul Cox wrote a new blog post: Ritz Camera is a piece of shit company   1 year, 9 months ago

    So, I’m a little flustered/floored at a recent experience that I had with a Ritz Camera employee. And not even just that, but then subsequent experience trying to complain via their website. The response I received? “We are sorry to know of the kind of service you received at the store. It is unfortunate, and [...]

  • Paul Cox wrote a new blog post: How do I feel about that?   1 year, 11 months ago

    So, I’m not quite sure how to feel exactly. My boyfriend and I had a sit down, like we have in the past. And it seems like whenever he has time to sit and reflect it always comes out bad for me. Because he inevitably he realizes how unhappy he is with our current arrangement. [...]

  • Paul Cox wrote a new blog post: A Little Clarity on the whole Health Insurance thing   2 years, 1 month ago

    We all know that preexisting conditions will no longer be a reason for denial of coverage or cancellation of coverage.

    We also know that certain people will be required to get coverage in one form or another.

    Additionally, the antitrust exemption that health insurance companies had will be removed, meaning that health insurance companies will have to [...]

  • Paul Cox wrote a new blog post: I realized today, that I don’t write enough personal stuff on here   2 years, 1 month ago

    I used to more, moreso when I had all sorts of shit and drama going on. But less so now, since things are going smoothly, and to be honest in the past when things were going smoothly.

    I definitely like this as a way to get things out of my system. I think that I used [...]

  • Paul Cox wrote a new blog post: Budget, I Love You   2 years, 2 months ago

    The sense you make is amazing.

    Here are Budget’s rates for cars. The price on the left is the price with a discount. The price on the right, is the price with the discount and (theoretically) another discount for paying early. Let’s see if you can figure out what’s wrong…

    121.99 - economy - 124.48
    131.59 - compact [...]

  • Paul Cox wrote a new blog post: I like writing, yes I do, I like writing, how about you?!?   2 years, 3 months ago

    So yeah, long time since I’ve posted anything on here. Not quite a year, but it’s getting up there. I almost contemplated downloading an app for my ipod, but I doubt it’d have the same functionality, plus I really can’t bear the thought of writing a post, let along a long one, with just my [...]

  • Paul Cox wrote a new blog post: Is god a crutch?   3 years ago

    I grew up in the church. Believed everything in the bible. Consistently got born again over and over again, because I feared that I would sin and die, right before I had a chance to ask for forgiveness. I remember that the only thing I knew of the bible, was what had been said to [...]

  • Paul Cox wrote a new blog post: Recoculous   3 years ago

    So, I’m just gathering a random smattering of facts about the whole Swine Flu thingy. And quite a variety it is. I’m trying to actually sift through and figure out which shit is true and not true. The virus is the H1/N1 virus.

    Initially it seems that some of what I’m hearing is that the [...]

  • Paul Cox wrote a new blog post: A fun weekend, full of blah!   3 years ago

    Ok, so things went pretty well this weekend. I’m trying to update this thing more frequently even when things are going good, so that it can actually consist of stuff that’s interesting and not just me bitching during the infrequent pissy times that I have.

    Anyway, on to the important stuff. I had an awesome time [...]

  • Paul Cox wrote a new blog post: Awesome video by DeistPaladin on YouTube   3 years, 1 month ago

    DeistPaladin

    The basic idea is to follow the golden rule and do unto others as you would have them do unto you.

    The idea is to think about it in reverse. How would you feel if the tables were turned and you were being treated the way you treat other people?

    How would you feel if gays told [...]

    I have a gay daughter and have been loving and accepting of her and her partner, but not of their lifestyle. We have made clear our opinions, but my wife and I do [...]

  • Paul Cox wrote a new blog post: Do you care what your government is doing?   3 years, 3 months ago

    Read the stimulus package if you’re bored or can’t fall asleep. Currently, it sits at $850 billion and 1,588 pages.

    The Wall Street Journal article on the stimulus package and how “…by our estimate only $90 billion out of $825 billion, or about 12 cents of every $1, is for something that can plausibly be considered [...]

  • Paul Cox wrote a new blog post: Frustration Abounds!   3 years, 3 months ago

    Frustrated at my roommate, frustrated at apts that charge ridiculous amounts. It’s ridiculous.

    I find a gorgeous apt, a lil out of my price range, and they don’t allow animals, because stupid people before me, took advantage of the policy and let the animals damage things. So, people like me, who actually take care of their [...]

  • Paul Cox wrote a new blog post: Thank you ex-president Bush   3 years, 4 months ago

    Your Foreign relations policies helped continue to make us the most annoying country in the world and inspired those who attacked us on 9/11 to do so.

    Then your inadequate intelligence put us in a war that was ill conceived from the beginning.

    Then your inadequate leadership kept us in that war, even tho the intelligence had [...]

  • Paul Cox wrote a new blog post: Annoyed and Amused   3 years, 4 months ago

    May I just say that I’m annoyed at my boyfriend. Today we got into it because he was outwardly annoyed at the thought that I would suggest that he took these B12 chewable vitamins instead of the B Complex he normally takes. Nevermind that 2 weeks ago we were at a vitamin store and he [...]

  • Paul Cox wrote a new blog post: Lame   3 years, 4 months ago

    This really sucks that JournalSpace crashed. Fortunately I have a backup. The only downside is that I have part of my journal on live journal. A backup of my stuff on JournalSpace to 2006, and the rest on MySpace and Facebook. I’m hoping I can find some way of importing blogs from those 3 places [...]

    I just found out that a dear friend of mine died this weekend. I met him through my friend Jason over 8 years ago, when he was only 15.His name, Todd Wallace AKA Todd Homme.He grew up in Sac, went to Kennedy and grew up around his friends, Jason, Derek, and Tre. All four of [...]

  • Paul Cox wrote a new blog post: Surprise Blog! Milk!   3 years, 5 months ago

    I hate that I have to feel this way, but i feel sad for those who never feel this convicted towards anything…

    I saw Milk tonight and to be honest, it moved me the way that reading my first book about Stonewall affected me. It’s this feeling of even though we’ve come so far, we have [...]

  • Paul Cox wrote a new blog post: Important regarding HIV, this just came to my attention   3 years, 6 months ago

    Apparently there is a treatment after being exposed to HIV. It’s been in use since 1996, but hasn’t been widely mentioned to people, and is mostly in use by health care workers.

    It’s a treatment called PEP (Post-Exposure Prophylaxis). Basically, if a person thinks they’ve been exposed to HIV, they immediately tell their doctor and ask [...]

  • Paul Cox wrote a new blog post: Boycott Leatherby’s Family Creamery   3 years, 6 months ago

    Dave Leatherby, owner, of Leatherby’s Family Creamery just recently stated that he’d donated $20,000 to the “Yes on 8” campaign because of his religious beliefs.

    While I respect religious beliefs, trying to legislate based on them is wrong. It’s tantamount to approving of the government in Iran, a theocracy. Especially since religious folks in America are [...]

  • Paul Cox wrote a new blog post: Why Proposition 8 will fail   3 years, 6 months ago

    Let me start off by saying that I respect the democratic process. I also respect the system of checks and balances we have in this country, which keeps the will of the majority from imposing itself on those in the minority.

    I also don’t feel that religious views should be legislated. This is a country where [...]

  • Paul Cox wrote a new blog post: Civil Unions/Domestic Partnerships are the same as Marriage….right?   3 years, 6 months ago

    First of all, What is Marriage? When people marry, they tend to do so for reasons of love and commitment. But marriage is also a legal status, which comes with rights and responsibilities. Marriage establishes a legal kinship between you and your spouse. It is a relationship that is recognized across cultures, countries and religions.

    What [...]
