Green Day "Working Class Hero" Do Something For The People Of Darfur

There should be something done about the crap going on in Darfur. I wish someone could convince the Coca-Cola company to stop buying gum arabic from the Sudanese and get it somewhere else. Them and all the other companies who use products from there which contribute to their government having the money to continue the genocide against the people there.

Andrew Card Boo'd Off Stage at UMass Commencement When Getting His "Honorary" Degree

Andrew Card assistant to the Deputy Chief of Staff and to the President was boo'd off stage at the UMASS commencement when the university attempted to award him an honorary degree. Many of the graduates wore "no card" papers pinned to their robes as they walked to their seats. Some had the sign put on the tops of thier hats so the crowd could see them as they sat and listened to the speaches. The crowd began to boo as soon as they started to give the speach about card and many stood up with banners and signs against him. I don't know enough about the guy to say what I think about him and what I don't or what I think about him being boo'd off stage. I do think that if that many of the people attending the commencement (especially the students who actually earned their degrees) disagree with the honorary degree being given then they should wait for another time. After all the graduation ceremony is for the students who earned their degrees and not the rest of us right?

$55,000 Per Speech Speaker For Hire

What in the world is happening when any person at all can command a fee for a speech that is more than a hell of a lot of people make in an entire year? John Edwards spoke to UC Davis students about poverty for $55k. He yaps about financial barriers for college students and then ups the next years salary for them by charging a crap load of money to talk to them about how messed up the world is for it's problems. What an idiot. Why even speak on poverty if you are gonna charge that much to do it? Choose a different topic or charge a different price. I'm all for people making money but geez! $200 or $400 haircuts or whatever it is and now this. No way would I vote for this guy. At the very least he would spend too much of the taxpayers money on pointless crap he could have saved money on.

MIT Dean of Admissions Resigns After the Discovery of her 28 Year Lie

Wow!? I think this story is interesting in all sorts of areas. Marilee Jones was well known for urging stressed out students competing for elite colleges to calm down. I guess she knew what she was talking about. No need to stress it's not nearly as hard as it seems to get into MIT. She did it with basically no credentials at all. Apparently, she fabricated her resume to get her job at MIT back in the 70's and then never corrected it when applying to other positions within the institution. Because they had all known her for so long and had known that she was capable of upstanding work they didn't check into her resume. Had it not been for the fact that she had written a book which included sections about integrity she'd likely still have a job. The whole situation kinda sucks because apparently she was doing a good job. It really sucks that an institution that works its best to keep up the whole lie that you need a degree in order to do good work and qualify for a job ended up proving the opposite. I'm assuming they gave her a choice between quitting and getting fired. Either way it sucks for all involved. This is what happens when you lie but it just goes to show you that you don't have to have letters behind your name to take care of business. It's just too bad that the rest of the world doesn't realize that fact.

Sharia Muslims are on the Lookout for Lesbians

A Nigerian lesbian woman who married 4 brides on the same day is now in hiding from the Islamic police. The woman (Aunty Maiduguri) and her 4 partners were born muslim and therefore they fall under Sharia law where they reside. Apparently, in their culture (Islam) the men are allowed to take up to four wives as long as he can provide for all of them. Abiding by her culture (minus the man part) Aunty Maiduguri took 4 wives. The problem is just the one little part she's missing. No one would have said anything about the whole mess if she were a man. But alas she is not. I wouldn't be surprised if we are soon to see in the news that this woman and her partners have been killed unless she is somehow able to escape the country. The theatre where the colorful wedding was held has been torn down because of "allegedly" being built on wrongly allocated land, among other reasons. What a fiasco. I hope someone with money helps these women escape the clutches of those who will jail and stone them to death. If not, I'm assuming that all these women felt as if their love was so great it was worth the risk of death by stoning. I just worry that if/when they get caught (knowing oppressive cultures of men) their punishment will include some "off the record" sexual abuses. I'm glad I live in the U.S. where women can live together and pretend to be married without being hunted down and killed, where if they do they can count on people like Fred Phelps to protest at funerals on the basis that homosexuals have too many rights, where though you are free it is only pretend. At least they let me pretend is all I have to say. I'll take that over a stoning any day.

Pet Spa My Ass!

Watch this video. It is a "pet spa" allegedly. I don't know about you but when I go to the spa no one traps me in a washing machine without my knowledge and tries to drown me. I am exaggerating of course but this is not the machine to put your cat in. Please visit the website and protest this thing. What ever pet supplies store has this in it is in need of a little protest as well.

The video shows a cat being placed in the "spa" and then washed while it jumps and begs to be free from the whole event. The cat survives uninjured but I believe the machine is cruel. If you are too lazy to wash your animal then pay for a professional to do it please either that or deal with your animal the way he/she is stinky and all.

By the way cats don't need baths they wash themselves. Dogs are a different story all together-with them you have to pay attention to the breed or you'll cause all sorts of skin problems. For example Airdale Terriers should not be washed as often as some other dogs and so on.

Scientists Have Reversed Homosexuality in Sheep

Ok for those of you who are not like me and did not grow up in a farming community about 1 in 10 (10%) rams (male sheep) has the urge to mount other rams as opposed to ewes (female sheep). In the farming world this is bad because you make less money with these sheep who won't actually reproduce. The more animals you have in your herd that reproduce the more you can sell the more money you make and so on. Because of this study farmers everywhere can make more money and because of this study homosexuals are outraged. They are protesting the sheep's right to be gay if it wants. I am in the middle of this little science experiment because I am gay and from a family of farmers. Here is my point of view. The day a sheep can choose whether or not it wants to be gay is when it meets the following requirements: 1-it becomes human; 2-it pays the bills; 3-it votes etc. You get the point. Sheep aren't human people get over it. They don't have the choices that we do because they can't make decisions. If anything, this study is good it shows that an animal without the brain power to make choices naturally likes the same sex. The place you need to put your protest is when they start trying to allow this type of hormone treatment to be done on humans before those humans are adults and can make their own choices. Do not think that the farming industry (one of the biggest in this country) will be tolerant toward saving gay sheep at the expense of their already small pocket books. Please people try to keep your animal rights protests to physical cruelty issues and let farmers make their money until a sheep walks up to you and tells you it pays taxes and deserves some rights, And in the mean time keep up the good work fighting for Human Gay Rights and Equality.

Henry Rollins Video Clip

This is somewhat of a spoken word piece or speach on how America is a pseudo free country and we should fight for our freedom. I don't really know who Henry Rollins is but apparently he has a show that airs on the Independent Film Channel on cable TV. I like what he has to say in this clip and I agree with it. I don't know what his show is about but with the emotion he sends out in this particular piece I can only assume it is quite a resistant and rebellious show. Fight against the man and the machine. Don't let anyone keep you down and all that sort of stuff.

Religion For A Captive Audience, Paid For By Taxes

Ok this is the reason that I think everyone who is not 100% represented by the taxes they pay should go out and seek reimbursement for that which we don't have access to. If you aren't a Christian but your taxes paid for something which involves Christianity then go out and find yourself a church that will give you something. Go to a church that takes part in the Angel Food Network for instance. You can go to that church and sign up to pay a small fee somewhere around $25 and then you get huge amounts of free food. Fill your refridgerator and freezer once a month with free food paid for by those who receive your money in the first place. Take your money back. Wouldn't you do that if you made an investment and it wasn't as successful as you had hoped? You would stop investing in that thing if it was a failure so you should do the same for your tax money which has failed you. Seek out all that you can and take it back for yourself. If you pay taxes for things which support heterosexuals but you aren't a heterosexuals then take it back by going to find some place supported by government money and taking advantage of whatever the place offers whether you need it or not. Frankly, I'm sick of paying for spousal benefits for police officer, Firemen and Military people who are married when I don't get any of those benefits for my own spouse. I fought for my country but I don't get the same money as others do for their duties. Don't let pride stand in the way of you getting free food or any other free stuff. Why? Because it's not free stuff it is yours that you have already paid for. If you don't need it then donate the food and stuff to some organization that will help people like you. Chris Kids for instance is just one organizations which helps gay and other youth who risk being homeless because of their families abandoning them. Youth Pride also helps gay youth. Donate whatever you get back to an organization which supports your religion. Are you Pagan or Wiccan then give money to Spiral Scouts so that other little Pagans and Wiccans can grow up with the same money that the government gives to Christianity. Take back that which is yours. I don't need free food either I have plenty of money with which to buy my own at the regular price but if I paid for it I'm taking it and not leaving it in the store and just walking out. I'm going to the Angel Food Network and getting my food. I don't eat beef and all sorts of other foods. Who cares? If the Angel Food Network gives those things to me what is to stop me from cooking up a big beef steak for the homeless guy down the street who happens to be just like me minus the shelter and clothes. Anyway you get my point now hurry up and go take it back. Add one word to the "Pay it Forward" Movement so that it becomes "Pay It Forward Equally".

Verizon Screws A Customer And Can't Even Figure Out How They Did It

Listen to this post it's great. Verizon quoted this guy .002 cents per kilo and then charged him .002 dollars. When he complained about it people all the way up to the supervisor argued with him about basic grade school math. These people forgot that when dealing with multiplication of cents you have to move the decimal two places to the left. This is a long recording but worth listening to just to see the stupidity of people. I don't have Verizon wireless as my provider and I can tell you after this I won't ever have them as my provider. I urge you all to post this You Tube recording on your blogs and to email Verizon just like I did. If you don't want to post your actual phone number use this one 770) 908-7383 it's the number to the rejection hotline. If you aren't in Georgia you can click the link and get a number close to you to use instead.

Conservative Jews Allow Gay Rabbis And Unions

"The highest legal body in conservative Judaism, the centrist movement in worldwide Jewry, voted yesterday to allow the ordination of gay rabbis and the celebration of same-sex commitment ceremonies...The decision, which followed years of debate, was denounced by traditionalists in the movement as an indication that Conservative Judaism had abandoned its commitment to adhere to Jewish law, but celebrated by others as a long-awaited move toward full equality for gay people...

Dick Cheney's Daughter Is Expecting A Baby

Cheney's daughter is expecting a baby with her partner of 15 years due some time in the spring. The Dick and his wife are reportedly looking forward to the baby's arrival as it will make the 6th grandchild. Of course all the wackos are using the issue as a point of controversy as opposed to just getting over it and letting the family live their lives. Maybe if people would mind their own business and not harrass the Dick he wouldn't have such a complex about his lesbian daughter and all the gay people in the world. Kudos to him though in recognizing it as a relationship and accepting the results of it as opposed to my own father who thinks it is a phase I've been going through for the last 25 years. He thinks I should move home to BFE Oklahoma and he said I could travel to a city 3 hours away on the weekend to do my gay thing. Little does he know the gay thing includes all the activities of daily life not just screwing whores on the weekend.

Should Race Be A Factor In School Planning?

Courts are debating whether or not race should be a factor in whether or not students can go to particular schools. Some think that all schools should reflect what the population of our country is as a whole, some think that only people who live in a particular district should get to go to a particular school, and others think that the schools should reflect the population of the city they are in as opposed to the whole nation. Who knows? The Supreme Court?

Isreali Map Shows West Bank Posts On Arab Land

A potential source of embarrassment for Isreal as they have said that they only take land there legally or for security reasons temporarily. The claims come from a 2004 database of the Civil Administration. The data was given to Peace Now by someone who obtained it from an official inside the Civil Administration. The goal was to expose perceived wide scale violations of private Palestinian property rights by the government and settlers. According to people within the Civil Administration there have been investigations in process for 3 years regarding land ownership and many Palestinians have sold land to Isrealis but would not admit the sales publicly due to fear of retribution.

Lesbian Couple Married in Massachusetts Files For Divorce In Rhode Island

Lesbian couple files for divorce in Rhode Island creating a confusing situation for the court system there. If they decide it is in their jurisdiction will they be recognizing the marriage? This is the conundrum in the Rhode Island court system. Massachusetts became the only state to allow same sex marriages when the supreme court ruled it was unconstitutional to ban it. The risk for Rhode Island is that if they decide to try the case in their state they are basically recognizing same sex marriage in their state.
