A Conversation with my Wife (Phil Robertson)
“You know we have to be more careful now.” I stated hesitantly.
“What do you mean? We hardly go out, and when we do, we barley hold hands.” She said confused and slightly concerned.
“I know but with this Duck Dynasty, shit, all the bigots are going to feel justified. They feel like they have a star on their side. All the bigots are going to feel empowered. We already have to worry about hate crimes and I am very concerned that this could escalate quickly.”
“So we are making headway in so many states but this could have been a huge step backwards?” She said exasperated.
“Yes… A&E has taken a back seat in the fight, and backed down from their original statement. Phil Robertson is not just getting away with it… He won this fight, but we can’t stop. We must continue fighting for our rights. By God someday I will be able to walk hand in hand with you at the grocery store. I am so freaking sick of the hatred and bullshit. I just want to have a normal life and not live in fear.” I said beginning to rant.
“I know baby but we have each other and for now that is all that matters.” she said looking sadly into my eyes.
I kissed her gently, wrapped her into my arms, and listened to her breathe as she fell asleep. However, sleep was evasive and when I finally dosed off my fears turned into nightmares once again.

Thing that PISS me off (Being Homosexuality)
1. “Homosexuality is a sin and there is no place in heaven for gays”
I don’t fucking care. You “Religion” does not run my life and my afterlife is MY concern. You can disagree with my decision to be with a person of the same sex but you can in no way apply YOUR religion to my life. PLUS I don’t want to be in your heaven anyway.
2. “Homosexuality will lead to bestiality”
This is just fucking stupid. My wife is in no way anything near a dog or goat. The fact that people say this just shows how ignorant they really are. This statement relates to the fact that you believe that one of the people in the marriage is not a person… has not consented, and is below normal human standards.
3. “Homosexuals are pedophiles”
Also fucking stupid. Homosexuals are no more likely than straight people to be pedophiles. If I wanted to be a pedophile I would just join the clergy and have all the protection I needed.
4. “Gay sex is Gross”
For you maybe... but from the state of porn on the internet it looks like men really like to watch anal sex with women.. How is that any different? If you have ever watched anal porn or fucked your girl in the ass then you have no right to comment on the “grossness” of gay sex. Plus what people do with their privates is their own business… that is why they are called privates.
5. “Gays are promiscuous and commit Adultery”
I have never committed adultery but I was a bit promiscuous before I met my wife. Being gay has no impact on a person’s morals. I know plenty of gay people in long standing relationships. However, Even if people chose to be promiscuous and commit adultery it should have no impact on their ability to get married… Straight people are promiscuous and commit adultery all the time, but they are still allowed to get married.
6. “Gay Marriage will lead to the downfall of marriage”
WTF? More people getting married will help stabilize marriage instead of harming it. I would bet that my marriage is much more stable than 80% of Straight Americans. I had to fight for what I love and I cherish it even more due to the struggle.

How to Create Products on Zazzle.com
| Prefer video? Click Here to Watch this Tutorial on Youtube.com |
Hello,so for the second Part here I’m actually going to skip over file storage and inventory reference sheet. I still plan on addressing this but I want to have a little more time to set up my Excel Files.Anyway, let’s take a look at Zazzle.Sales on Zazzle generally give good commission and they are COMPLETELY free. Zazzle can take some time to set up but it can be very lucrative. I think Zazzle is awesome because you can move your products from one category to the next easily. Moving products from category to category will change their Link. This means that anywhere you have advertised that particular product the link will appear broken and default to zazzle’s page (NOT your product, but similar items from the marketplace.) So, I suggest setting up categories before sharing items or updates with social sites.
Start by registering for a free account.Make sure to fill out your profile, add a picture, and link as many social accounts as you have (facebook, twitter, pintrest, etc…)
Create Account Step 1: Click "Sign in” at the top of Zazzle’s Home Page
Create Account Step 2: Register for Free account
Fill out form and follow instructions for account activation.
Log into your account and you will be taken to you “My Account” page. From this page you can edit and manage your stores.
1: Click “Manage My Store”
Create Store Step2: Click "Open new store"
Create Store Step 3: Enter Store Name and Security Phrase
You will be redirected to your store’s “Manage” page. From here we can start uploading images.
In this step we will upload an image to our Media basket. This will allow me to add my description to my image.This description will then automatically transfer into the description of the products it is associated with (but only if the description is added to the image before making the products).
Upload Image Step 1: Starting from "My Account Screen" Click "Images"
Upload Image Step 2: click "Upload New Images" button
Upload Image Step 3: Click "Select Image to Upload"
and select File from your computer (Hold Ctrl to Select Multiple Photos)
Upload Image Step 4: Click "OK" and Wait for Screen to Disappear
(Don't double click "OK" it will cancel your download!)
Upload Image Step 5: You will be returned to you Image Basket
(Refresh your page for your new images to appear)
Upload Image Step 6: Click the Image you want to edit
(Add title and description then click “Done”)
Editing you images this way helps search engines rank and display you images to potential buyers Try to make your titles key word rich and your descriptions should be complete sentences.
In this step we will apply the design to merchandise. There are two ways to create products.Since this blog is focused on businesses I will show you how to make multiple products at a time
Create Product Step 1: Starting from "My Account Screen" Click "Products”
Create Product Step 2: Click “Quick create”
Create Product Step 3: Select a Product Set from Drop Box
Create Product Step 4: Click “Change” to Select Image
Create Product Step 5: Select Desired Image and Click “OK”
(or upload image from computer)
Create Product Step 6: Click “Done”
(“Choose Fit/Fill option” does not seem to work at this time)
Create Product Step 7: Select and Delete Unwanted Items
(Listing one type of item will make all types available)
(I.e. choose one t-shirt design and all other shirts will show on Zazzle’s Page)
Create Product Step 8: Click Customize to Re-size Design on Specific Products
(Must be done for each product before moving to next screen!!)
(it is almost impossible to change the image after this step)
Create Product Step 9: Re-size Image to Fit Properly on Product
(You can add more than one image to products.Great for making black pins and stickers!)
Create Product Step 10: Customize ALL Products Then Click “Next”
Create Product Step 11: Add Title and Description
Create Product Step 13: Enter Keywords, Select Audience, and Royalty Amount
Create Product Step 14: Agreement Box, Type Catch Phrase, and Click “Post it!”
(Make sure to follow all copyright rules when posting items for sale!)
Create Product Step 15: DONE!
(Click “Do It Again” to repeat)
Congratulations!
You have just listed multiple items in your store (these products automatically upload to the marketplace, so there is not further work to be done with that particular image.However, can add different backgrounds to your main designs (if it is possible) and list variations to original pieces. (I.e. black, red, patterns, etc…)
