As children, some of us were taught that 'hate' is a bad word. The bad guys hated; the good guys loved. As long as we steered clear of the bad guys, life was peachy. So why the occasional stench of rotten fruit among us? Reminds me of one of my favorite quotes: "If you want…

In a 2006 issue of Esquire, Brad Pitt famously stated that he and Angelina would only "consider tying the knot when everyone else in the country who wants to be married is legally able." Looks like he's making good on his word, because he just donated $100,000 to help stop the California ballot initiative called Propostition 8 that would ban same-sex marriages in the state, reports OMG.
