Oh Cry Me a Fucking River!

So last week, models in Spain that were below a certain weight were banned from walking Spanish catwalks and modelling whatever new designer togs nobody could afford.

Now Canadian models are whining about possibly being banned from Canadian shows. One said today, "It's like telling a fat woman to lose some weight."

Hey girlie, guess what? We HAVE been told to lose weight! Every day of our lives. Most of the time by complete strangers who are repulsed by the way we look because they've bought into what you've been selling for the last 20 years.

I've got news for you - you can bitch and moan all you want that you don't have an eating disorder. I can tell every narrow-minded person that just because I'm big doesn't mean I'm not healthy. I'm healthier than most people are. But nobody seems to hear that either.

So suck it up, princess(es). And have a donut, for christ's sake!

This is So Cool!!!

Oh...So NOW You Want the UN...????

These two could quite possibly go down as the biggest villains in history.

Lebannon and everyone in it is being held victim while Israel hits it again and again, demanding that its two kidnapped soldiers be returned. Hezbollah shoots back at Israel, killing more people there. No one in 50 years will remember what started this in the first place. But in the meantime, hundreds have died, tens of thousands have been swarming the harbors like rats just trying to get out of the line of fire.

Britain and the United States. The two most powerful countries currently on the planet. Do they say anything? Do they persuade Israel to be the bigger country and back off?

No.

They say they want a UN resolution.

This is that same UN resolution that they couldn't get to justify invading Iraq, isn't it???

You two idiots should talk to the parents of all those soldiers you got killed. I'm sure they'd like to show you a few words in the dictionary.

So watching the news tonight, and the top story is the ever-rising price of gas. Today in Vancouver the cheapest I saw was $1.14.9 per litre.

The crux of the story ... that being an oil-producing nation, this is fuelling the Canadian economy. People in the oil sector and it's immediate spinoffs are spending their disposable income on houses and cars and consumables, in turn funnelling their money into other sectors. Another topic was the rapidly spiralling American deficit, now in the trillions due to that idiot warmonger down south. And to top it off, the American economy is in a bad situation because American manufacturers cannot export their goods.

Is any of this starting to sound familiar??

In the 70s, gas prices went sky high due to shortages. The boom in Alberta drew people from all over the world to work in the oil patch, where many of them became quickly rich. They then, in turn, started buying houses ... and cars ... and consumables ...

And to top it off, at the time the Canadian dollar was worth more than the American dollar. At least before the bust.

HELLO?!?!?!?! Anybody home, McFly? Have we all forgotten the word R-E-C-E-S-S-I-O-N?

Holy bankruptcy, Batman.

T-Shirt Parade

After stopping in at the local pub tonight, I saw a guy wearing a T-shirt saying "pornstar stunt double". So it got me Googling...

And especially for Greg...
