I wish we didn't celebrate for different reasons.


Let's not forget our departing Vice President and last Republican Presidential candidate were against this holiday. Mailmen and bank tellers of the U.S. say a resounding "Fuck YOU!" Happy MLK day and there is, contrary to some, a ton to be done still.

Unrelated, but still fun! Check the Star Tribune about Hartman getting canned.

Are they going to disqualify Obama somehow because of the flub by Roberts reading the oath?

Ryan Johnson said...

I was wondering the same thing, fat guy. Once again the supreme court is trying to steal the election.

Roberts did it on purpose to stick it to Obama for voting against his Supreme Court confirmation. Sadly, I really believe this.

Does Sid get to continue appearing on Sports Reporters now that he's technically no longer in the club? I hope so.

Obama's inauguration made today my best birthday ever! (Don't forget, it's always all about me.)

MLK Day...Love those school districts that still don't celebrate. On what basis?

And last but not least--Obama is biracial. He's as white as he is black. What does this say about our society that "race" is determined by your darkest drop of blood? Read "One Drop" by Broyard.

FGWGRM, Thanks for the Hartman info. I always love keeping up with the gossip of my favorite Minneapolis sports station. Did Sid throw a huge hissy fit or is Chad going to fall upwards like so many other nepotism victims?

Fuck Roberts, what Contrarian said.

"Rockin", happy belated b-day, on my blog. I heard there was some sort of asshole who insisted on eating your cake at 1100 o'clock at night. In regards to one drop. You know me, I am a Plessy v. Ferguson guy all the way. It seemed so fair at the time. And unfortunately, in most biracial cases, the racists will still call you a Nigger and it is kind of hard to get in the "But I am half-white, so only half hate me." retort. But now that I have no hair no one knows what the hell I am.

Oh noes, my ghost ship blog lost a picture. Maybe if I posted more than once a month.......
