Referendum 71 Passes, That Another Step Forward

This is the first time in the history of the US that a measure ensuring equality to gay, lesbian and transgender citizens have been put before voters on a state level and WON!
The following is from the Washington Secretary of State's Blogs.
R-71: Effective 12-3-09
by David Ammons November 6th, 2009
Media outlets have declared Referendum 71 approved by voters, describing it as the country’s first voter-ratified gay-rights measure. As of Friday afternoon, the measure had an approval margin of nearly 71,000, or about 5 percentage points — 754,180 to 683,320. King County, which accounts for nearly a third of the electorate, was giving the measure an approval margin of over 150,000. King’s approval rate has been running 68 percent, and a number of the ballots remaining to be counted are from that county.
The referendum, placed on the ballot by foes of expanded rights for state-registered domestic partners, has been on hold since it was passed by the Legislature earlier this year. If the vote holds, Senate Bill 5688 will go into effect Dec. 3. The election returns will be certified by Secretary of State Sam Reed and Gov. Chris Gregoire, probably on Dec. 1, but under provisions of the Constitution, a bill referred to voters and approved takes effect 30 days after Election Day, or Dec. 3 in this case.

Voici Halloween!!!
Scootersville is multilingual...but with tomorrow being Halloween, we're going all out. This is Halloween is sheer Danny Elfman brillaince. But have you heard it in other languages? Here are 5 complete with English subtitles. The words have been changed for better flow and ethnic flavoring. My favorite is the French, "Voici Halloween"
"ในเมืองฮาโลวิน", the Thai version
But the creepiest is the Russian Version, "Это будет Halloween"

Evil Dead II...Does It Get Any Better than This???
"Don't worry Ash. You can always get another from a second-hand store..."
"Who's laughing now???"

Something NSFW in My House!
Halloween's just not Halloween without DOA or The Exorcist. Luckily this song has them both! Too bad it's out of sync. Oh well. Listen and enjoy,,,just not at work.
