Are they unable to tell a pest from more cognizant creatures?
Guess what? Even I don't kill things like nonpoisonous spiders(and most spiders are benificial), but a FLY! Wonder how they feel about bedbugs.
Well it just might warm up enough to be pool time. The pool was feeling pretty good then this streak of great weather we had cooled it off below comfortable temps. Oh well, think of the savings on my PG&E.
So I was looking for an address on Google maps and came across this. Pools are popular in the northwest part of town eh? No, I didn't count them.
Well The Prez will get a chance to appoint a new Supreme. It appears that to mollify all his supporters it will have to be a liberal Hispanic lesbian who's had a child out of wedlock and possibly was born with a handicap.
Newly published research supports the view that the H1N1 virus behind the current outbreak is a distant cousin of the virus that sparked the infamous 1918 epidemic. But all the signs so far indicate that the 1918 flu was much more lethal. In fact, some researchers report that today's headline-making microbe lacks some of the molecular machinery that made past versions of the virus deadlier.
Citing such reports, the Los Angeles Times noted today that the current outbreak "may not even do as much damage as the run-of-the-mill flu outbreaks that occur each winter without much fanfare."
Call it an unexpected consequence of the bad economy: A recent round of staff reductions at Disneyland could result in the return of embarrassing episodes of public nudity at the Happiest Place on Earth.
Way back in 1997, a front-page story in the Los Angeles Times chronicled a scintillating Internet phenomenon involving the Anaheim theme park’s Splash Mountain log ride: Photos of women flashing their breasts at an automatic camera that snapped souvenir photographs during the final 50-foot drop were “unzip-a-dee-doo-dahing” their way around cyberspace, earning the ride the dubious nickname “Flash Mountain.”
..... Over the ensuing decade, objectionable pictures of breast-baring women were “washed away” by Splash Mountain photo editors before they were projected on preview screens at the end of the ride, according to David Koenig, author of “More Mouse Tales: A Closer Peek Backstage at Disneyland.”
..... Disneyland officials confirmed that Splash Mountain photo screeners would be redeployed to other positions as of May 3.
HA! I'm not surprised (though to be honest I wasn't aware of this until now). So watch out for that nudity and enjoy some good old fashioned Disney racism on Splash Mountain. (Now you all know I could care less about Song Of The South being racist. I'm not only notPC but am blatantly against PC behavior in most cases. I just couldn't resist the jab.)
Now most of the DOs really seem like DON'Ts but maybe that's just me. There's an obvious affinity for cute young girls in the DOs and plenty of gay bashing in the DON'Ts (and not that isn't deserved. The quips are pretty good too (for a canadian(s)).
a DO It may not seem fair but some ladies just have an inborn regality, and that's something all the valium in the world can't take away. http://www.viceland.com/int/dd.php?id=1613
a DON'T (free hugs??? eeeewwww!) Is it homophobic to say gay people confuse the living shit out of me these days? Cowboys and bikers I get, but how did Hasids, Mennonites, blackjack dealers, fine Persian rugs, and those inflatable guys at gas stations make it into the mix? http://www.viceland.com/int/dd.php?id=1562
a DO I'm not sure what she's selling but sign me the fuck up. Combining copper complexion with fish eyes and a vague American Fascist sensibility may not have the guys beating a path to your door, but it makes anything that comes out of your mouth sound like the cool voice of reason. Even some Earth Crisis bullshit. http://www.viceland.com/int/dd.php?id=1729
and a DON'T (really DON'T!) Agreeing to have the stupidest thing you’ve ever said tattooed on your ass forever is like sacrificing a virgin to the riff gods. http://www.viceland.com/int/dd.php?id=803
All the outrage over the AIG bonuses from politicians seems just a little hypocritical. I don't like it either but at this blog one commenter has the best idea...
Marc, I have a modest proposal. Pay their bonuses in ShamWow. I hear a set of ShamWow is worth like $50 or something, and you can get them for only around $10 (if you act now). And they throw in a free set! So for every $10 we pay, the talented executives of AIG would get about $100 worth of ShamWow. They should totally go for this, because this is the sort of valuation they peddle.
