Speaking of PETA…

Filed under: — Desiree @ 11:36 am

We know that group has never been one to win friends, but this is going too far.

I certainly love animals, but I could never compare the slaughter of animals for human consumption to the Holocaust.

Milk or beer?

PETA apparently feels that the Dairy State should change its official drink from milk to beer - I think you can make your own joke up there.

Faux Pas

Gotta love it. To sum up, Carolyn Parrish, the Liberal Parliament member for Mississauga Center in Ontario publicly said “Damn Americans. Hate those bastards.”

Don’t you just love being lumped into a group liked that and called a bastard?

She later released a statement saying “My comments do not reflect my personal opinion of the American people, and they certainly do not reflect the views of the government of Canada.”

Ok…so you saying “Damn Americans. Hate those bastards” wasn’t an expression of your feelings, or the feelings of others. So…what would you call that statement?

Changing NYC’s skyline

Filed under: — Dan @ 9:15 am

A new plan has been accepted for redeveloping the World Trade Center site in New York City.

Although I can appreciate the symbolic defiance of rebuilding the towers (as some architects suggested), I think that this plan is more satisfying on an emotional level.

Return to the Batcave!

I wasn’t aware this was happening. I don’t know whether to be frightened or amused. I’m sure I’ll still watch it though. :)

Here are some photos. I’m digging Adam West in the smoking jacket.

Oh, and Dan, you might want to bookmark this site for future reference (it’s the Batman “Super Hero Hype” website).

No More Buffy :(

We all knew it was going to happen, but here’s the official word. I’m just really worried about the possibility of losing Angel as well.

Kikkoman!

We had a link to this a long time ago, but I found a link to an English translation on Dave Barry’s blog. Check it out here:

Hmmm….

looks like I’m starting to come off as a little bitchy and bitter. :)

Who’s the victim?

Filed under: — Desiree @ 8:23 am

So…your bar is constantly getting broken into. You take matters into your own hands and build your own security device. You place warnings all over the place about this device, hoping that would be enough to ward off intruders. Instead, some drunk and drugged out person breaks in, and gets shocked enough that it kills him. And then you get sued.

Maybe he shouldn’t have put in his own device. Still, it was his property to protect. And he wasn’t exactly negligent…he put up notices everywhere…including on the window the burgler used. The bar owner was just as much a victim here. But these asshole lawyers don’t care…

I don’t know why I read the news anymore. People piss me off.
