The 'tuxedo bib-fronted' chiffon top and men's shorts that Sharapova wore on Tuesday made it 15-love to the Russian in the fashion stakes.               Photo:Carl de Souza/AFP

I disown me (for me now being more elite than you)
Mood:  amorous
Now Playing: Wrong!
Topic: Politics

Karl Rove sees Barack Obama as a "coolly arrogant" elitist.
 

So writes Maureen Dowd and quite wonderfully so of the New York Times.

"Haven't we had enough of this hypocritical comedy of people in the elite disowning their social status for political purposes? "

- --  

Succintly put Ms Dowd but I think since if one were to consider the painfully obvious fact that the majority of readers who dont own newspapers  have to blog and only hope to gain a readership through cynically viewed self promotion and hope people will subscribe to their opinion (even if only a joke!) and share it and so forth...you may want to correctly call that 'dra-medy' next time.

 

After all, comedy usually spells "relief" for most people. (Snickers) 

 

Karl Rove's comedic hypocrisy

Alcohol related shooting?

Oh and where are all the 'ban alcohol from liquor stores' protestors?

STATEN ISLAND, N.Y. -- Anger replaced tears as the widow of a slain retired Port Authority police officer blasted a former NYPD detective before he was shipped off to prison for gunning down her husband.

"You should be a retired police officer, a person who took an oath to protect and serve," Karen Vitale told Allen Lau, who was sentenced yesterday in state Supreme Court, St. George, to 21 years behind bars for the fatal shooting of Steven Vitale.

"Instead," Mrs. Vitale said, "you are a disgrace to the men and women who go out every day and put their lives on the line to uphold the law."

Lau reacted to the scolding by turning his head toward the widow and belching.

Californians decry Canadian human rights violations
Mood:  not sure
Topic: Crime and Punishment

Just as I learn the police in Canada

Cops can take fluid samples from drivers suspected of being high

 I learn..

...in a squatty building in the shadow of Cedars-Sinai Medical Center, marijuana devotees pack classes at the unique trade school that teaches students how to grow and process marijuana, use the drug in baked goods and manage medical-marijuana dispensaries. 

 

These days, higher education has a different meaning

 --  - 

 

So whats next for our beloved RCMP in their efforts to continually save us and save us more from our selves?

Barack Obama has indicated his government would take a hands-off approach to medical marijuana in states such as California. Arizona Sen. John McCain's would continue to back federal law and forbid it.

If Obama wins his bid for Presidency, will the RCMP helpfully discourage and advice against all travel to California?

Or forget its duties at home if McCain wins and all collectively volunteer to serve two full tours of duty in dusty Iraq looking for peace hating terrorists?

This could be important for truth to speak to power when a Canadian comes home after being sent to Syria via US to be tortured then sues for a million dollar lawsuit  (and wins) because we were compelled by US authorities to obey an extradition order to surrender another Canadian citizen by the name of Marc Emery to the US to face charges of selling marijuana seeds when in fact the US has no cohesive policy or framework for wholesale tackling of marijuana related issues:

"teaching people how to grow and use marijuana isn't enough to draw the wrath of the federal government"? - Los Angeles spokeswoman for the Drug Enforcement Administration.

Please dont tell me now they are teaching skills that wont ever be used. That argument can be applied equally to marijuana seeds. 

Having seeds doesn't mean I intend to grow anything.

Supplying seeds doesn't place responsibility of their obesiance or non-compliance with their respective countries laws in my hands. 

But isn't that what you are saying? That you are allowing students to be taught how to grow and process marijuana without the benefit of full knowledge that no seeds are available?

I presume they intend to teach them to forget everything after they have learned it.   

 Round and round it goes, where it stops..nobody knows.

Topic: Crime and Punishment

LOL @ Coldharvest on this one

-  --

Coldharvest must honestly believe this means people on-line can see who he is.

Cold if you do that, or if you did, you go to jail like anyone else does regardless of your motivation.

But yes , Ammo had it right by way of reply. That truly does have a way of ending the matter.

Theres actually a native north american indian reservation in a remote corner of Utah, you have to drive one-way...100 miles to get to it. From Arizona.

 

http://www.midwestroads.com/otherstates/mokidugway/ 

 

If the road 1000 feet up at a 10% grade looks slightly daunting, consider drivers who turn around upon arriving.

Only 53 percent of all the roads in Utah (or 20,688 miles worth) are actually paved....

it is a tricky statement.

Bond girl is which religion?
Mood:  chatty
Now Playing: Entertainment?
Topic: Crime and Punishment

 

 

 

Meet the new Bond girl. And she comes from the fashion world.

Zara Adams is the editor and publisher of Talent Magazine.

 

Something tells me that an editor publisher with her own web site  and from an orthodox Pakistani family with a strict upbringing and conservative parents,  is just NOT about to be catapaulted to world wide acclaim as a Bond girl.

Call it a gut instinct.  But it has absolutely nothing at all to do with her religion

After all how do you say: Who cares in Hollywood-speak?

What type of people are we anyway when we start typecasting in our own minds which religions the Bond girls (or any other starlets) belong to?

Goldie Hawn a Zen Buddhist, Maddona ancient Jewish mysticism, and all the denominational Christians out there, all with the same job....keep our minds from sinking into the tedium of life and entertained. Who cares which religion you were brought into!

Anyway, the beguiling beauty was recently in India
to sample some of  designer Archana Kocchars

runway duds which she would like to wear for her appearance in this falls 'Quantum of Solace'. 

 What one thing for sure is, the girl does not seem to be short on ambition

What might be interesting to see is which way her career path turns as her trajectory into the limelight furthers....down fashion runways and photo shoots or red carpet movie premieres.

 Or will the impossible be achieved.
