Both the best and the worst thing about Twitter is the 140 character limit. Basically, everything is a slogan, everything would fit on a bumper sticker or a T-shirt. Or, it’s a link, which sort of means we are on line throwing business cards at each other to ignore. I kind of think I like it, but
They really should call this show "Dancing With Famous People's Embarrassing Relatives
I sure am glad I’ve got my blog.
Re: Occupy Wall Street, it’s apparently still going on and the MSM is still not reporting it. However, rumors that it is leaderless are unfounded. It has a leader. His name is Kevin.
Full credit to the people who are there, risking the pepper spray and the beatings but, with all due respect, I have a suggestion about strategy. The word protest has negative connotations. Call it a street party, get a few bands to show up, byob, byom, bring some Frisbees, pretty soon you’ll have hundreds of thousands. It’s New York City, at any given moment there are a couple hundred thousand people withing walking distance of Wall St. anyway.
I’m really jazzed about this CERN thing. Scientists are busy trying to debunk it, because it just CAN”T be true, it’s against Jesus Einstein. Really, it’s not, not anymore than crazy old Uncle Albert made Newton irrelevant. I have a theory about that, it’s called the “good enough” theory. See, Newton was supplanted by Einstein who was supplanted by Bohr, and now they’ve got these warp speed neutrinos making monkeys out of all of them. But all we need to know, to get us through life without falling out of windows or stepping in front of speeding automobiles, we learned from Newton. Scientist’s may eventually make a spaceship out of neutrinos, but Newton is good enough for those of us who remain on Earth. Everybody wins.
It’s encouraging news that the Saudi king plans to allow women the right to vote, but just today a woman was sentenced to 10 lashes – for driving. The only country in the world where the form of government is single family ownership (they are the house of Saud, it is Saudi Arabia – I would love to have a country called Watsonstan), still has a long, long way to go before they can be considered normal.
I support gay rights, totally. I consider myself a pretty tolerant person. But I disagree with most gay people about the whole nature/nurture thing. I suspect that upbringing may actually have quite a bit to do with it.
Consider Chaz Bono (I haven’t seen him on DWTS. In fact, I’ve never seen DWTS, because we don’t get it here. However, I hope it doesn’t wind up like Bristol Palin, where people keep him on way past the point where he should have been cut, just because they are fans of his mom). Anyway, Sonny and Cher named their baby Chastity after a character Cher played in a movie – a character who had gender issues. That strikes me as a gaywish on the part of the parents.
