   I have no political axe to grind. I'm all in favor of people being happy   
   and comfortable in the lives they choose, except for creeps who are only   
   happy when they're bullying or hurting others.  If happiness is being a   
   lumberjack who puts on women's clothing and hangs around in bars, so be it.
