I'm somewhat astonished that someone can shamelessly proclaim that the needs of the virtual world take precedence over those of this real world; this real world where partners might not be able to see one another in a hospital, or worse yet, be faced with losing the roof over their head should a partner pass away without a will.<br> <br>I sure hope that level 69 PvP necromancer-caster-orc-chain-lightning thing has some good lobbyists during the next legislative session.AustinD00deSat, 14 Jun 2008 22:38:34 -0000http://cubsoutloud.disqus.com/being_proud_this_weekend/#comment-679136I certainly apologize for leaping to the assumption that your gaming was online and disconnected from real human interaction. Nurturing relationships is important. I'm sorry for hurting your feelings. I look forward to discussing pride and fund-raising more with you when we see one another out and about in lowly Austin.
