It the midst of all the important stuff going on in the world right now, I know this blatant discrimination will probably be overlooked. Two women; one, the only Asian, and the other, half of the black contingency were voted off of American Idol this week. My opinion, they were easily 2 of the 4 weakest contestants, so meh!

Other possible missed items: MLB started and the U.S. tied Argentina and lost to Paraguay.

You're too old to watch that show. Heck, I'm too old to watch that show (which is why I don't). :)

One is only as old as they feel. ;-)

Heck, I made 27 just yesterday? TWENTY-SEVEN, can you imagine!

Two more years and I can go to kindergarten! YAY!

Since it's not particularly related to politics, in reference to your comment here (http://community.livejournal.com/talk_politics/947729.html?thread=73646353#t73646353), the reason why I tend to be frightened of exv2 is because he acts almost exactly like this. (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qwicLgOGJOI)

Dresses like Bateman. Looks sorta like that. Definitely down with the whole happy, jocular conversation with sudden outbursts of near incoherent rage. No drugs, though.

So there's this band I heard of last weekend at my friend's. Its a Canadian band that I'm surprised I hadn't heard of. The main guy in the band was in Delirium and Front Line Assembly. Heck, I didn't even know Delirium had someone from Front Line Assembly in it. Not bad music. They have popular female artists guest star. In 2005, they had Poe! Poe is teh awesome! She co-wrote 5 of the songs. They also had Sinead O'Connor guest on a song.

Good song with Poe


Sinead o'connor

(which is a cover of a song from the group Lunascape)

I'm at work right now so I can't listen to these but I will assume that since they are Canadian they are indeed awesome. Everything here is.

It's ok, a gay, black man will win so it cancels out the discrimination.

1-1 with the Gaúchos was a very prestigious result, even if on a friendly game.

But note this (during the warm-up)!

Did you trick somebody or were you tricked by an April Fools prank today?

Suffice to say that I had to urgently cross half the city just to find out there was no one meeting me at the other end. There was even a note for me. You can guess what was written there. =)

Bad guys 1, Stupid blonde 0!

You?

That's the kind of April Fools joke you really have to know the other person will be able to take, cause there's probably a lot of people who would be really pissed (i.e. not amused at all) at the pranker for it.

"The NATO charter clearly says that any attack on a NATO member shall be treated, by all members, as an attack against all. So that means that, if we attack Greenland, we'll be obligated to go to war against ... ourselves! Gee, that's scary. You really don't want to go to war with the United States. They're insane!"
