Harvey Wasserman, The Free Press, March 22, 2005 As we enter another Easter Season, it's become all too obvious that if Christ returns, those who hate in his name will slime him, then kill him. Christ was a long-haired peace activist who would have been sickened to his soul by the war in Iraq...

I stole this from Ten Packs in another thread: Good Canadian TV shows are not as common as they should be. I think this has a lot to do with attempts, especially by the private broadcasters, to imitate the American model. That gives us a second-rate copy of a product that was questionable to...

Well, the first news out of the Conservative policy convention is that they yanked David Orchard's membership. I guess they were afraid of him or something. :lol:

Oh well, g'night.

I'm not sure how important this is, but I've just dropped my cigarette into a box of papers and such. i'm considering moving it to the tub....

I'm going to put the whole thing up because it's an open letter. Lloyd Axworthy sent a letter to Condi Rice. It was in yesterday's Winnipeg Free Press. Here it is. Dear Condi, I'm glad you've decided to get over your fit of pique and venture north to visit your closest neighbour. It's a...

The Liberal Policy Convention is this weekend. Sadly, it looks likely to be a non-event. Only a couple thousand delegates are showing up and any attempts to oust Martin will be kept in the backrooms...probably the back rooms in cities far away from the convention. Anyway, what would you all...

So Tabare Vazquez took power in Uruguay yesterday. He was the sixth socialist elected in South America over the last few years, a part of the Bolivarian revolution that Hugo Chavez has been calling for. Vazquez's platform is familiar...help the poor. Land reforms, education, health care...

I'm listening to the Kalaelies (sp?) on CBC right now. They are some kind of legend, apparently. I've heard my musical friends talk about them and according to the intro on the Vinyl Cafe they are the best thing ever. So this is happening again. They aren't annoying, but I just don't get what...

Twila pointed out that SSM reminds her of S&M just because of the initials. Since we still seem to be silly enough to have a need to differentiate I thought we should come up with some new names. We need something that isn't stupid or gay-bashing or just plain old boring, something that is...

I think this is actually left over from the last election, but it's cool anyway. It's a quiz to see whose platform best matches your outlook. http://www.politicswatch.com/VoteSelectorQuiz2004.html Me? I got: Leader of the New Democratic Party of Canada (score = 100) Leader of the Bloc...

Jack Layton, speaking on CBC Newsworld's Politics just said that the budget shows that the Liberals and Conservatives are "Same sect partners." I thought Peter MacKay was going to choke on his tongue. :lol: 8)

Kyoto It becomes official tommorow. We finally get to start working towards goals instead of listening to the luddite liars from the oil industry whine like babies. We're starting too late, and the Liberals still haven't put together a solid plan, but we are finally starting. So what are all...

I was just at the mall standing in line with all the other rubes shelling out 5 bucks for a card and 50 bucks for flowers that will be dead by the weekend. I saw a guy in the mall with the coolest shirt I've seen in a long time. Sponge Bob and Patrick are sitting on the beach drinking beer and...

It's February 12, kids. You know what that means? It is Charles Darwin's birthday. He would have been 196 today. So I was thinking...we all agree that Canada needs a national holiday in February. A day when we can all take a break...a little rest between New Year's and whenever the Pope...

I was just listening to the CBC and they had Lister Sinclair announcing 70's disco songs. It was some of the most surreal radio I've heard. You won't hear something on commercial stations. It's also about the only way you can get me to listen to disco.

Okay, this one isn't for discussing same-sex marriage unless that same sex marriage happens to be polygamous, polyamorous, incestuous, or some other form of sex that our society finds odd. My personal feeling is that as long as all involved are consenting adults, then let 'em marry. I really...

I saw the ad on TV. Before that I'd seen the brother and sister team, a pair of young entrepreneurs from Calgary, talking about their fine-craft-brewed beer that only cost a buck a can. Craft-brewed for high quality. I thought, "Hey, I wonder..." So last night I picked up a 24-can flat of...
