After taking another weekend off from blogging, here is a short list of stuff we're laughing about this Monday.
I was glad to see that France surrendered to its students this week, scrapping plans to make young workers with less than 2 years of seniority terminable at will. I never quite understood all the fuss, since here in California, that applies to just about everyone, no matter their age or seniority. But whatever. At least tourists will get to take the trains and climb to the top of the Eiffel Tower again. Nothing wrong with that....
Pat Robertson thinks God speaks to him in a real and express way. And he wants Pat to ask women about their sex life. How he knows that it isn't, you know, the devil or somebody trying to impersonate God, I don't know. But whomever is speaking to him has lead him down the wrong path a few times. Maybe more.
I had noticed that many of those hybrids were clogging the carpool lanes. I thought it was because they can't go very fast. It turns out, they go slow because they have little displays telling them the mileage they are getting, and it goes way down when they keep up with traffic. Now that I know this, I am angry enough to ram one of them. With my spare car, of course. And I'm not alone.
A gay and lesbian group honored Charlize Theron for her portrayal of lesbian serial killer. I'm not sure I understand the reasoning. Did this improve the public's opinion of lesbians dramatically? I confess ignorance on this point. Most of what I know about lesbians I learned from the Howard Stern show.
I always suspected that you had to be on crack to represent a guy like Randy Moss. As usual, my intuition was well-founded.
Emboldened by the movies, they have now created gay rodeos. Soon, everyone will assume that every cowboy is gay, much like we now assume that male dancers and male Disneyland workers are all gay. I know I, for one, have stopped using the phrase "Cowboy up." Completely.
What might be a good replacement for "Cowboy Up"? Mafia Up?
