THE WAR ON XMAS HAS BEGUN!

I know what you're thinking, "gee steve, it seems like your war on Xmas starts earlier every year" well I'm never the one to lob the first volley. This year CBS started it by showing the Charlie Brown Xmas special, (I think it's called "You're going to be crucified Charlie Brown") IT"S STILL NOVEMBER!! they couldn't wait a few more days? I know that retailers have had store displays and tv commercials for some time now but that's retail, why does a major network want to jump the gun? Well whatever their reasons, GAME ON MOTHER FUCKERS, LET"S DO THIS THING!

bed time story

a walk...

...through the neighborhood...

...on sunday

my neighborhood from the Jacques Cartier bridge

Here's a little tour of my apartment, starting with the bedroom

it took a long time to find a bed that looks like an upside down pair of underpants, I had to drive all the way to 1978 but I was able to furnish the whole place from the same store.

the dining room,

that's Monique, she came with the set, all she does is light candels and look good but it was worth the extra $300.00

the living room

they had a great deal on shag carpet so I decided to do the walls as well.

the bathroom

I'm going to get rid of the water fountain, you have to kneel down to use it.

my kitchen

people say the colour is a little too bright, they may have something there, this photo was taken at night.

I hate this guy

In April David Copperfield and two female "assistants" were walking to his tour bus after one of his stupid magic shows when a group of armed teenagers held them up. The two assistants handed over cash and cell phones but Copperfield turned out his pockets claiming to have nothing, although he had his passport, wallet and cellphone on him. Two things bother me about this. First of all, why did these kids believe him when he said he had nothing on him? He's a magician you assholes, he probably has a wallet, money clip, cell phone, a bunny and a couple of doves in his special magician jacket. Did you even check? The other thing is, what made Copperfield so sure he was going to get away with it? When he turned out his pockets they could have shot one of his "assistants" in the leg and said, "why don't you have another look magic dork." This was Florida after all, they shoot you for having out of state plates there.

President Daniel Ortega

"My idol was Sandino, and also Christ. I was brought up a Christian, but I regarded Christ as a rebel, a revolutionary."




I used to like this guy, he help remove a corrupt dictator from power and stood up to the American war machine. Ortega's government would set up community farms for poor people, people who were little more than serfs before the revolution, were finally working for themselves and their community. The US backed "Contras" (funded by C.I.A. gun and drug running) would come down from the hills, kill everyone and destroy the farm, YAY FREEDOM! Daniel's run as president lasted five years before he was voted out of office but if nothing else he brought democracy to Nicaragua and it was democracy, not the barrel of a gun that brought him back to power this week. In his run for president he made much of his new devotion to Christ and the Catholic church. (sigh) He is still the candidate of the poor but he plans to outlaw abortion (due to his new Christian values). Daniel, Daniel, Daniel...remember, before your mind was poisoned by religion, you believed that making abortion illegal only hurts poor women. You can't stop pregnancy. You can't stop women from trying to terminate pregnancies. Rich women will find safe ways to do so. Poor women will bleed to death on dirty floors. Maybe Ronald Reagan and Oliver North won after all.
