Voting for Douchebags

April 28th, 2004

John Kerry is a douchebag but I’m voting for him anyway Is a pretty interesting website, and a fairly entertaining read. Give it a try? You’ll at least get a laugh at some of the antics of Alan Blevins, the writer.


What about you, are you voting for a Douchebag or a Bush? (That’s a rhetorical question, douchebag)

Women's March
Actors Camryn Manheim, left, Cybill Shepherd, Whoopi Goldberg, center, Ashley Judd, and Christine Lahti, back right, march in Washington, Sunday, April 25, 2004, during an abortion-rights rally. Shepherd and Goldberg wave coat hangers. The day, which focused on protecting women’s reproductive rights, included men and women from across the country along with activists from nearly 60 countries. Also in attendance was Ted Turner, Candice Bergen,Moby, Kathleen Turner, Ani DiFranco,Sarah Weddington (the lawyer who successfully argued Roe v. Wade), and Ali G. Many of the women there wore shirts that read “This is what a Feminist looks like“.
One of the more comical placards read “Hey George, Get out of my bush!

There were tens of thousands of men and women in attendance.

The FBI Wants to wiretap, again.

April 24th, 2004

The FBI wants to see what you type. They’re trying to convince the government to require Internet service providers, instant-messaging services like AOL’s AIM, MSN’s Messenger to build in
backdoors for “easy wiretapping” (or key logging). As if this wasn’t bad enough, they’re trying to be secretive about it. Instead of going to Congress for approval,
the FBI and the DEA are pressing the FCC to move forward with it.

See the full story. You be the judge.

Environmentalists wackos………PAY MY GAS BILLS!!!!!

April 23rd, 2004

$2.27 for a gallon of gasoline in South Florida……………IF ONLY we could drill for oil in Alaska, gas prices would be much lower, I tell a few of my coworkers this morning.

We can’t rely strictly on foreign oil anymore.

To make matters worse, my new girlfriend lives an hour away, and seeing her means………you guessed it…..using up more fuel than usual.

“But wait a minute,” my HORRIFIED coworkers exclaim.

“I would rather pay higher gas prices than destroy the Alaskan environment,” one little tart, who has probably never been more than 500 miles away from Florida, says to me.

Not that she has a valid point or anything.

From what I understand, we would be drilling on land roughly the size of two football fields. Plus, the Alaskan locals are all for it. Plus, the EPA bureaucrats, I assure you, will be around! And the oil companies, desperate for good public relations, won’t allow anything untoward to happen.

But nooooooooooo………..dirt worshipers say Mother Earth is more important to them than my wallet.

Fair enough!!!!

If money is no object with environmentalists, then I’m certain they won’t mind helping me out.

They can either do one of two things: (1) Pay my gas bills via http://www.paypal.com or (2) Kiss my pasty white ass!

I’m accepting payments under the e-mail address right_wing_southerner@yahoo.com

Remember, this is only applicable to those who believe we SHOULD NOT be drilling in Alaska.

Let’s see how much the precious environment takes precedence over YOUR own pocketbook (assuming you hippies don’t spend it all on dope, which you guys MUST be smoking).

Stupid environmentalists!

Mark Cuban is cool

April 22nd, 2004
Mark CubanI
like Mark Cuban. He’s a genuine, stand-up, dynamic guy. I found out he had a weblog while listening to CNN and decided to find it.
Well, I found it and was reading his
blog
this morning and ran across an
entry
about his upcoming TV show, "The Benefactor", and how
it differs from Donald Trump’s "The Apprentice". Apparently Trump took
a shot in a newspaper against Cuban. Cuban fires back in this blog entry. It’s a
definite good read.

Cuban, keep it up and good luck.  Go Mavs! heh.

Guo Jian’s symbolic representation

April 21st, 2004

Gui Jian's artwork
Chinese-born artist Guo Jian is pictured in front of one of his
paintings on show in his Sydney studio March 23, 2004. The painting, titled
‘Demonstrator’ refers to an incident where he was taught to kill while in
China’s People’s Liberation Army (PLA). Guo, 40, is one of the many avant-garde
Chinese artists who have moved overseas since the 1989 Tiananmen pro-democracy
protest, which China still labels as counter-revolutionary. (Will
Burgess/Reuters)

Jian’s art has symbolic representation mostly dealing with China, in some political or cultural fashion. He was only able to freely create once he fled China after what happened at Tiananman Square.

I found an interesting
interview
with him, where he talked about Tiananmen Square, his father, and
propaganda art.  I wish America would embrace more artists like this. 
Hooray for Australia.
You can see a decent gallery
of artwork
created by Guo Jian, at the Ray
Hughes Gallery

Mom sues Coors over son’s death

April 18th, 2004

What happened to taking responsibility for one’s action? We’ve lately become a country wrought with frivolous lawsuits, and we’ve become quite a litigous nation. I’m damned sick of it.

Jodie Pisco of Reno is suing Coors over her son’s death in an accident. Her son, 19 years of age, drank Coors at a party and decided, rather stupidly, to take his girlfriend’s car out for a ride. He then ran that car into a pole and killed himself.

Drinking + car = death. This isn’t rocket science.


Jodie contends that Coors has failed in its duty to protect the country’s youth from drinking.

LAME.


Her suit accuses Coors of “glorifying a culture of youth, sex, and glamour while hiding the dangers of alcohol abuse and addiction”.


You know what? Our country seems to be glorifying a culture of irresponsibility, shitheadedness, and idiocy. Hey, I’m sorry for the death of her son, but Coors didn’t shove a beer in his hand. Neither did it point a gun to his drunk head and make him drive a car. He decided to do this all on his own.



Hey dumbass–PERSONAL RESPONSIBILITY– Look it up.

He’s so photogenic. I love these gems. I remember when he was in El Dorado. We had loads of cops everywhere on the roads, and helicopters flying around. I’m not sure which city he flew into, but I know it caused a stir for us.
