Hello there Bloggeroonies? How are things? Well we still have Operation Slapshot happening in the States where sources now say that Wayner is involved, i wonder if people are taking bets on who the other players are that were involved in this whole thing? Now that would be something to bet on! Locally...well we have this Marsh fella at SMU that posted the controversial drawings of the Prophet Muhammad on his office door, ok ok freedom of speech? Yes, at the cost of hurting the feelings of lots of students? Yes..but you see this Peter Marsh has different aspirations you see, i was reading the Daily News yesterday and on the inside, one of their writers called him an A**hole..why? Well because Marsh called the paper to tell them that he had put up these pictures on his door, this was not freedom of speech at all! This was someone looking to draw attention to himself, make a name for himself at the expense of others. He did take the pictures down off his door (Only at the request of the university) but then just the other day according to sources where he delivered a classroom lecture to 60 students that focused on his belief that all religions are odious. Plus the student paper at UPEI, "The Cadre" was recalled after it had went ahead and published the cartoons for all to see. Like someone else wrote, freedom of speech is good, but maybe it should be kept for positive classroom discussion, not put on office doors, not published in newpapers and that is the angle that i agree with.
I really hope Marsh's 15 minutes of fame are up soon...
Well the Ramones didn't get their Grammy folks...oh well the music industry in America is backwards, however it feels just like the Ramones eh? Always the underdog, always unrecognized by the masses, i had a friend of mine that said the award went to Johnny Cash because he was now dead...hello! Almost all of the Ramones are dead! Anyways like i said it would have went against the grain i thinks...could you imagine Johnny Ramone accepting a Grammy? Imagine the speeches? Wonder if they would have anything on Mike Love's speech when the Beach Boys were inducted into the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame?
Well tonight is the Axemen's last home game of the regular season against Dalhousie, i would go but i have to work, however me radio will be coming with me so do not fret as i shall be listening, let's just hope that our recent good fortune continues into the playoffs! Today is my Father's B-day and i bought him a $14 dollar lobster from the Superstore bright and early today. If anyone deserves a good b-day it is my Father..besides he has to put up with me eh?
Anywho that is my rant for now..have a good one!
