Canadian Women: Inferior and Insecure
2002-07-20 10:21:55
It's no wonder the women of BC are in a bad way. With the men preferring dogs in panties, and women being barred from the Men with Books club, it's understandable that the ladies are feeling a little insecure. But that's no excuse for turning on each other, girls.
BC's women's downhill mountain bike racing community has viciously singled out one of its own for two remarkably unsportsmanlike reasons. First, she wins (gotta hate that). Second (this is what they claim is the real problem), she was born with the unfortunate handicap of having a dick. They have even gone so far as to say she should only be allowed to race against other women who were born men.
All I can say to the women who want lower standards in their sports is YOU SUCK! You give women a bad name, reinforcing the worst of all gender stereotypes: that women need (and WANT) a wussier playing field. Are you telling me that women who demand recognition in "competitive" sports should only have weak competitors? You hens make me sick.

John Dvorak has passed. I’m of mixed emotions. First off I’m more positive about his contribution to the overall technology journalism of the early PC days through the 90s, despite how many things he got wrong. He was a firebrand and commanded attention. (More...)

Place the Lighter on the Ground and Let Us See Your Hands
So I have been thinking on this whole flag burning issue and all the things it could imply. Now a lot of people right now are saying that there are more important issues at stake and something so trivial is a waste of time. Believing such is really losing sight of some very key changes happening in our nation right now. Being a strict conservative, and currently serving in Iraq, I was surprised to find that I am actually appalled that the House approved a ban on flag burning. (More...)

About a hundred old-school red-nosed clowns made the sombre trip to darkest Dalston to pay their respects to clowns who died in the last year and to thank God for the gift of laughter in a bizarre ceremony presided over by the eccentric Reverend Clown Roly, resplendent in a garish red lumberjack shirt with oversized gold lapels.
