It's been a rough day thus far - political figures are ruining the lives of citizens in Wisconsin and a devastating force of nature has taken the lives of so many; a devastating force who's full effects we have still yet to feel. The lives of thousands of individuals were irrevocably changed this morning and the process of healing and moving forward has not even begun.

While flipping through the channels the other night I came across a Comedy Central special featuring the infamous Ron White. A member of the redneck quartet, the Blue Collar Comedy Tour, Ron White combines a dry raspy delivery with an impeccable sense of comedic timing to put on a truly hilarious and amazing set.

I dare say it was a little fortuitous that as I happened upon the special, White was discussing a friend of his who was still a homophobe. Shocked that were even still homophobes alive in this day and age, White relates to his friend that everyone is a little bit gay and then proceeds to convince his friend, using porn as the major crutch of his argument, that he is in fact a little gay.

If Ron White has enough charisma and comedic sense to convince his homophobic hillbilly of a friend that he is in fact a little gay, well then there is hope for the rest of the world just yet.

So though today has scene its fair share of tragedy, I saw this and smiled a little bit. Hopefully it will make a few of you smile out there as well.
