“I'm a supporter of gay rights. And not a closet supporter either. From the time I was a kid, I have never been able to understand attacks upon the gay community. There are so many qualities that make up a human being... by the time I get through with all the things that I really admire about people, what they do with their private parts is probably so low on the list that it is irrelevant.”

“Jerry Falwell said that the reason that September 11th happened, the reason that God allowed it to happen, was because of certain people in our country. People like, and I'm quoting, 'the pagans,' which is a motorcycle group. Feminists; he brought up feminists. [...] And I couldn't believe it, he said that God had actually talked to him and said, these were the people. That was the reason. It was those people, and that was the reason God allowed this to happen. And I thought, 'That's odd.' Because God had called me twelve hours before, and He said the reason He was upset was because of people like Jerry Falwell.”

“Understand that sexuality is as wide as the sea. Understand that your morality is not law. Understand that we are you. Understand that if we decide to have sex whether safe, safer, or unsafe, it is our decision and you have no rights in our lovemaking.”

“It takes no compromise to give people their rights...it takes no money to respect the individual. It takes no political deal to give people freedom. It takes no survey to remove repression.”

I must get that show on DVD somehow. Those little clips are not enough! My favorite is the orgasmic phone call. I really laughed myself silly :D

They said they only have PAL but I think maybe eBay might have some NTSC format ones. PAL won't work on any of my players I intend to get a multiregion player. I'd really like to see the show.

Hi Trisha, I am on Region 1 (USA/Canada) but the only DVDs I've seen on the show are from Region 2 (UK). I will try to get a multiregion DVD player for my computer and install it, then get the DVDs. It's such a good show, too funny!!!
Laura wrote: "Dang it, Amazon only seems to have region 2 DVDs. I used to have an all region DVD player but it won't work anymore. I'm gonna keep searching. I want to see more of this show!!!"I will try and find some for you. It should be available somewhere. Any idea what region you are? I'm not sure. :)
Dang it, Amazon only seems to have region 2 DVDs. I used to have an all region DVD player but it won't work anymore. I'm gonna keep searching. I want to see more of this show!!!
Trisha wrote: "Let me know what you think of the links to Mrs. Brown's Boys. I would love to hear your thoughts on the show :)"My thoughts are I am sitting here at 3 am laughing like a hyena!!! The striptease episode almost killed me :D The obscene phone call and the talking to God clips were great too! I looked thru my library and they don't have the DVDs. I wonder if they're avail in the USA. I'll go to Amazon and see. My dad would love this show too!!!
Let me know what you think of the links to Mrs. Brown's Boys. I would love to hear your thoughts on the show :)

You're very welcome, and thank you for the recommendation for Prayers For Bobby. I saw the movie and it was so heartbreaking. I need to read the book now :)
Oh no you didn't put pressure :D I just wish I could write fast and write good at the same time. I wish my 2nd book was done cause I want to share it so badly !!! I am listening to Fibber McGee and Molly right now. Do you know about old radio shows? It's a Christmas episode. So funny! Christmas is creeping up too fast for me :)
I'm such a slow writer. I have to be sure the new book is as perfect as I can get it LOL Thank you so much for your support! It took me from Aug. 2010 to May 2012 to get "Crush" just right :D So it will be a while, but I'm having a great time creating it and I really hope you guys will love it! Hope you have a great holiday!
Thank you Fiona!!! I'm so glad you liked the book. people in my own family say it's hard to read, and it was hard to write, but so rewarding too. :) Thank you for your support and kind words!!Fiona wrote: "Hi Laura!
I just wanted to let you know how much I enjoyed Crush! Thanks so much for friending me! I look forward to chatting with you and reading more of your work!
