Why is it that women are allowed to dress appropriately for the hot weather but guys are not?
Now I'm not for a moment suggesting that they cover up. That would be a huge step backwards and nobody is complaining about them coming out practically in their skivvies when the thermometer boils over.
It doesn't seem fair, however, that I'd probably be fired in a heardbeat if I came in wearing boxers and a wifebeater. How's THAT for equality?
I know that nobody wants to see my hairy legs walkin' around the city… but let's face it… nobody wants to see me walking around in a puddle of sweat, either! Which is the lesser evil??
That links to Nissan's Australian site where you can watch their TV commercial featuring Kim Cattrall acting raunchy.
It might be amusing. I don't know. It goes full-screen as soon as you start to view it using their stupid viewer and proprietary format. I can't be sitting here watching full-screen tv on my screen!!
Stupid website designer!! DON'T HIJACK MY COMPUTER!!!
Last night was the warmest night here in recorded history. We're in the midst of a heat wave and they're urging everyone to avoid using their cars and turn their air conditioners down.
That would be a great idea if the public transit system would pick me up in an air conditioned bus to cart me around. As it stands, the buses they use to take me to work are the most dilapidated POS excuses for buses you could imagine. I had to get off one a few weeks back just so it could drive up a hill! And that's in the summer!!
So what did I do? Well… I drove my air conditioned car all the way to work and I did it with the A/C on full blast. Howard Moscoe can lick my balls. I'll bet the bus that goes near HIS house has A/C!
I'm happy to take public transit. Just don't treat me like cattle if you want to keep getting my business.
I'm back in the real world now. Tomorrow I go back to the daily grind.
I hope you all missed me.
Sadly, I didn't get to maul any bears. I had my heart set on it and was totally denied. Best I could do was to stand over a snake that had already been killed by a car. That was me, totally owning wildlife. Woot. I win.
Well… maybe not so little… but either way, who the hell sets up on an overpass and just shoots at random people with a rifle??
The prosecutor doesn't yet know whether to seek the death penalty. Does this sound like the sort of person that gets rehabilitated? It's not like it was a crime of passion or anything. He just up and decided to try and kill people one day.
In a state that has the death penalty, I imagine this is the sort of candidate it's in place for.
But that's just me. I'm the guy who's tax dollars are keeping the likes of Paul Bernardo in a government hotel for the rest of his years.
Ah well. At least Chuck Guite's not getting that money. That rat bastard.
Well… I'm not going to grandma's house… but I'm totally stoked about getting out of the city for a few days!!
I'm debating whether to pick up a hunting knife and try my hand at bear wrestling or just stick with the regular plan of drinking myself silly and trying to keep my limbs out of the fire. This guy is my hero now. How cool is that?!
And just for Alia… here's the stinkin' rabbit.
And guess what? It's dead. I read that while looking for the pic.
Of course, it wasn't dead when the pic was taken. That would just be disturbing.
I add a caveat here… if this Liliane chick is an employee of our embassy in Lebanon or some such thing then she may have a point. I make these comments under the assumption that she is a vacationing Canadian like so many others we're hearing about on the news.
EDIT: I've just confirmed that she is, in fact, on vacation and thus, trying to blame our government for her own lack of planning.
Ms. El-Helou travelled to her native country for a family vacation, but found herself trapped when the bombings started last week.
After getting flown back to Canada on Prime Minister Stephen Harper's private plane, Liliane El-Helou had this to say:
She said that officials told her that they were not ready for that kind of an emergency. “Excuse me, if you are in Switzerland, a country that is not at war, an evacuation plan is the last thing you do for your employees,” she said. “But when you are in the Middle East, a volcano area where war could begin any time, you have to train your staff.”
Well then! Excuse our government for not being your babysitter when YOU choose to go to a country that you yourself know that war could begin at any time!
I commend our government for putting their best efforts into evacuating people and I think those people should be HAPPY for it. If you choose to go to one of the potentially violent hotspots of the world, I think that YOU should have an exit plan in place for when bombs start dropping around you. It's not OUR responsibility!!!
Our government should and does help out where it can, but it is not obliged to SAVE YOUR STUPID ASS nor is it at FAULT when you don't like the way the rescue effort has gone.
Well… they might not, but it would appear that they think they do. Which is funny… because it's been my experience that these days they think they know everything.
If it turns out that they're actually underestimating their abilities at stuff, I'd say we've probably only got a few months or perhaps merely weeks left before they completely take over the world… by accident… without realizing what they've done.
And WTF?? Math class IS freakin' tough!! Stupid Barbie.
