    Immigration Equality is the leading LGBTQ immigrant rights organization in the country. It provide s advice and legal services to thousands of LGBTQ and HIV-positive immigrants seeking refuge, fair treatment, and freedom in the United States.

    @mariano To me it seems one needs a good sense of coordination.. that's me out! I'd probably just kick chins all the time.. ;)

    Morrissey dancing? What's that, moping and making xenophobic comments?

    @ ßrian -- for years i used the Pride of Szeged Paprika, but have had a tough time finding it in recent years :(
    Magyar Marketing has some of their spices, along with other brands of Paprika -- but i have not tried any of them, so i cannot say which is best:
