Now, there’s a graduation ceremony nobody will forget, but for all the wrong reasons. We still don’t know why, but in the middle of the ceremony, a fight broke out between some parents, and one of the parents observing put the resulting fight up on YouTube. Wow, just wow. This is the way parents think …

Opposites May Attract, but Opposite Screenreaders Get In The Way
Martin sent this on Monday, and if I hadn’t been gone to a conference for the next two days, it would have been up sooner. Oh well, here it is. It did give me a bit of a chuckle. Here’s what might happen if two speech synthesizer voices went on a date.
Catchy? Yes. Insensitive? I Think So
I was making breakfast and the radio was on. I think it was Chym. The chirpy woman was telling us all about the ALS walk, and she finished off by saying “Walk for those who can’t.” It sounded as though those words were not a burst of what she thought was creative genius, but a …
Smoke In The Dreamscape
Steve sent me this onion story describing a dream, but written like a news report, and we couldn’t decide which one of us had dreams more similar to that. Steve never posts about his dreams, but does he ever have some doozers sometimes, and I always ask him to post ’em. The eggplant in the …
Stupar Is as Stupar Does
Hmmm. How would you pronounce the name Joleen Stupar? I’m leaning towards pronouncing it like “stooper,” since she was found slumped over her steering wheel drunk. I might even call her Stupid Stupar because she had her three-year-old child in the back seat when she passed out drunk with a .39 blood alcohol level. Real …
The Huppy Is 1!
I feel silly writing about this, but oh well. Yesterday, the neighbour’s baby, who I call the huppy, turned 1! Yup, The little guy is a year old. Where exactly did that year go? I think the huppy ate it. I remember the day he was born. I was going to take Trixie for a …
The Names On These Guys…
The Jays drafted a pitcher named Asher Wojciechowski yesterday. I don’t know what kind of arm he’s got or anything, I’m just imagining him and Marc Rzepczynski pitching in the same rotation some day. And you never know, with the way free agency can go and how a big trade can come out of nowhere, …
Fake Lake, Real Money
News on the cost of the G20 (perhaps it should be re-named the G2000000000 Summit at this point) continues to get worse. In addition towhat we’ve already gone over,it’s now coming outthat the government has spent $57000 to build a fake lake in the middle of the media centre they’ve already spent nearly $2 million …
Instead Of Stopping The Mosque, How About Stopping To Think
I hate to ask this question of my American friends, but are racist ignoramuses the main product you’re manufacturing down there nowadays? It’s hard not to think so what with everything going on in Arizona and nowthis. A group of protesters calling itself Stop Islamization of America gathered near the site of a proposed mosque …

Boing, Boing, Boing…
And the neighbours of Eric Williamson thought they had it bad. Just imagine waking up to find a nude man jacking off while having a good ol’ bouncy bounce on your trampoline! As she looked out of her window, she saw James Burden stark naked with a cigarette in one hand and his genitals in …
