5111...My Fave Part Of Ottawa Pride
Is this schmuck.
He is there every year and every year he makes the paper. This is from 2012's Ottawa Citizen. One year he was batman, not to be confused with Batman, complete with wings. Another year he resembled Mr. Peanut. I believe the dude from Monopoly made an appearance too.
What is consistent with this stronzo is the fact that he is walking in a parade, his ass hanging out for all to see and his skin the colour of melanoma but while tanning he was too shy to take his shorts off.
That is one big freaking tan line, eh?
Brilliant.

The stronza doing the suing is Jenelle Carillo who burnt her tuckas sitting on a marble bench outside Cowboys Stadium on a 101 degree day, that is about 40 Canuck degrees. Her lawyer, Michael Walsh, told CBS in DFW that she had to spend a week in hospital having her backside brought back to factory specifications.
Oh, yeah, this happened in 2010. Two years ago. Methinks that Jerry Jones, the owner of America's Team, will write a fat cheque and Ms. Carillo will go away.

ESPN reports that Augusta National Golf Course, the home of the most prestigious golf tourney extant, The Masters, has leapt right into the 1960's. They are going to allow women into their club. "...under increasing criticism the past decade because of its all-male membership, invited former Secretary of State Condoleezza Rice and South Carolina financier Darla Moore to become the first women in green jackets when the club opens for a new season in October."
Both accepted. Ms. Rice btw is a two fer. Ms. Moore is not.

'We've got a President that does a call to the Koran or Mecca or whatever,' he told the magazine. When asked if he believed Obama hated America, Williams Jr. responded, 'I don't know about that but it's kind of obvious. I guess when you take a tour, a world tour, to apologize for America.'"
Wait for it, it gets better. Joe Lawler of The Des Moines Register says that at the Iowa State Fair last week Hank Williams Jr. told his cheering fans that "We've got a Muslim president who hates farming, hates the military, hates the U.S. and we hate him!"

She is the current Governor of South Carolina and I am predicting she will be the Veep for Mitt Romney.
I have been wrong many times before but I like this pick.
She is a viz minority, daughter of immigrants, is hot, is soooooooooo right wing.

5012...Mitt Romney And The London Olympics
They started badly for him and they have ended badly for him.

5010...Stephen Harper Has No Soul
My friend Denise Brunsdon, a star to be in Canuckistanian politics, shared this on Facebook earlier this day.
My view on immigration is simple and clear. Let them all in and if they f'up, well that is what courts are for. Frankly I don't think Ms. Amah was a f'up. She definitely didn't get due process.
WFDS
South Asian Women's Centre Statement: "Kandasamy Gunapoosani Amah is 70-year-old Sri Lankan woman was deported back to Sri Lanka today. She has 4 children, two of whom are here in Canada and two of whom are in Norway; she has no other close relatives or friends in Sri Lanka. Her family asked Immigration Canada to let her stay here so that they can take care of her, but the Government refused. Her refugee claim has been denied, though her Humanitarian and Compassionate ground appeal is still in process. This tragedy will separate an elderly widowed mother from her children who are willing to care for her. Worse, she will return to a country where she has no immediate family to care for her."

The Sponge Bob I refer to is the cat. Not just any cat though, this Sponge Bob was a 33 pound kitty whom The Daily Mail says was a bit of a star in New York, New York.
His weight did not kill him per se; his weight made an operation life threatening so his owners decided to see what would happen. His death is what happened.
Went through the same thing with Grandma Shields we did.

5008...Today's Excuse/Reason To Drink
August 9th is a national holiday.
In South Africa.
Sure they like Corey Hart, still, but it is a country and today is National Women's Day. The holiday commemorates the 20,000 women who gathered in the capital of SA on this day in 1956. Primarily women of colour, they were peacefully protesting apartheid, the pass system and the fact that women were, at best, second class citizens in SA.

5006...Regina Priorities Don't Include Indians
At least if they are poor and live in North Central, which is quite possibly the worst neighbourhood in North America. Drug wise, mortality wise, get your ass killed wise, North Central has it all.
It also used to have a program called RAGS [I hope I got that right; I am working off a video piece CBC Regina ran earlier] but the money ran out.
Interestingly Mayor Pat Fiacco, Premier Brad Wall and our beloved Prime Minister Stephen Harper along with community leaders in the Queen City have found 200 or 300 million shekels to build a football stadium.
Coz those eight to ten football games a year are worth more to the people of Regina than a bunch of f*cking Indians.

Not for him; pour moi.
I mentioned earlier this day that the corpulent MP for Peterborough and our beloved Prime Minister's Parliamentary Secretary seemingly had dodged a bullet.
Then again.
This time QMI, The Suns, has put a target on El Roundo's back. Brendan Wedley writes that "Elections Canada is now investigating allegations donors who contributed about $20,000 to MP Dean Del Mastro’s 2008 re-election campaign were reimbursed by a company owned by the MP’s cousin."
This is old news but in a new chain of newspapers.

Last night the country star went for a drive in his 1998 Pontiac Trans Am. It did not go as planned.

When the cops showed up a naked Mr. Travis threatened to shoot them. That is a big no no.

In a brilliant marketing ploy Joan Rivers took her Fashion Police crew to a Costco in Burbank, California where she proceeded to handcuff herself to a shopping cart and wouldn't leave til the coppers in that 'burb showed and told her to hit the road jack.
The Associated Press says the problem is Costco, at least this particular Costco, doesn't carry her new book "I Hate Everything...Starting With Me."
Something tells me that sales of the tome will jump a tad today; brilliant move Ms. Rivers.

4998...Beach Volleyball Bums
John Bower tipped me through Facebook, by the way you may friend me if you want, dannyboy5770@hotmail.com, about the horror of those poor exploited beach volleyball players having their bums photoed and broadcast all over the TV.
The article from Metro.ny says that the over emphasis on the ladies posteriors is "...gross..."
What the sanctimonious twerp who wrote the piece, Nate Jones, left out of the discourse is the fact they, the beach volleyball players, male and female, seem to do all of their signalling using their asses as shields. This makes ass shots an essential part of following the game in the same way crotch shots of catchers in baseball are important. Don't see Mr. Jones vexed about that, do we?
Secondly the finals are tomorrow at 4, USA vs USA with the Bronze match between Brazil and China at 2. Personally I am hoping for Kerri Walsh and Misty May-Treanor coz Ms. Walsh is Irish and Ms. May-Treanor and I are FB friends.

Two more things boss. First off do not, I repeat, do not watch football, especially the NFL. If there is a
more ass oriented sport than football, well, there ain't.
