10 Downing Street

What is 10 Downing Street? It is the most important residence in the United Kingdom -- the official residence and office for British's Prime Minister since 1735. It has been home to Winston Churchill and the current PM Tony Blair as well. 10 Downing Street is the most recognized address along with 1600 Pennsylvania Avenue NW -- if you do not know what 1600 Pennsylvania Ave NW is, your American citizenship is revoked -- immediately!

Was reading "Everyone Here Spoke Sign Language: Hereditary Deafness on Martha's Vineyard" by Nora Ellen Groce today -- I read it for one class at Gallaudet some years ago -- I was bit bored and decided to reread it today.

It mentioned 10 Downing Street that I thought I should share with the readers -- Deaf people were employed by Sir George Downing, an English politician who is well known for running many series of spy networks across London and beyond. Nearly all of Deaf people that were hired by Sir George Downing reported directly to him. Most English politicians feared and respected Sir George Downing because of his political skills and his ability to find information as much as can be.

How did Sir George Downing knew these deaf people? He was from a small town named Maidstone in the county of Kent which is located southeast of London. It was no secret that because of poverty levels, lack of transportation, many Deaf people were born in the county of Kent to a point where many people in Maidstone can sign, hearing and deaf alike. That was where Sir George Downing learned and relied on Deaf people's loyalty to him.

Here is an evidence that can be found in Samuel Pepys's diary, during November 9, 1666 (307 years before I was born), a fire was beginning to consume the city of London, it reads:

There comes in that dumb boy ... who is mightly acquainted here and with Downing; and he made strange signs of the fire, and how the King was abroad, and many things they understood but I could not, which I wondering at, and discoursing with Downing about it, 'Why,' says he, 'it is only a little use, and you will understand him and make him understand you, with as much ease as may be.'"

These group of deaf families from the county of Kent eventually (depending on how you looked at it) emigrated to Massachusetts and settled down on Martha's Vineyard in 1700s. Later, Laurent Clerc was brought to Hartford to set up the first deaf school permanently (Cobbs Hall near my parents' hometown, Hopewell, Virginia is the first) in the country ... large numbers of deaf children from Martha's Vineyard was sent to Hartford to be educated and most of them did not return to Martha's Vineyard.

Suffice to say, the damned Kennedys took over the island eventually. Few friends of mine told me that you can find the gravestones in fingerspelling at Martha's Vineyard near Chilmark and Gay Head. Cool?

Racist Is Racist

Vincente Fox, the President of Mexico, caused an uproar (which I think is very silly) two weekends ago about the jobs that Mexicans took that African Americans and others do not want. African Americans wept that what Vincente Fox said was racially biased. Boo hoo!

It is true. Just look around.

Clifford Terry (eiffilc of Xanga) can be so racist despite the fact that he is African American. He continues to blame the Caucasians of enslaving African Americans. He claimed that it was the whites who started the slavery ... read what he commented on Graystorm's comment box:

"I am not saying that hes correct or not.. Blacks did work hard on this and that when they were slavery. White did nothing. Shud have said, White wont do the work that Mexcians will do. :-P"

Whites should take the blame? I'm like, "C'mon, move on. Get a life already!"

Did you see Jews blaming Egyptians today for its thousands years of slavery? NO, you do not. They moved on ahead with their lives.

I told Clifford that if he observed the history, whites did as much as blacks did, though. I also mentioned that many Blacks refused to do the menial jobs, they gradually graduated to the other level with better opportunities, creating an available of menial jobs for others to fill, the Mexicans and others happened to fill in.

Clifford Terry claimed that he is not a racist. But read this:

R, thats ur opinion.

I'm not trying to be racist. Whites would not have created this country without Blacks or anyone else. Them, white people are too dumb and think they are gods -- the chosen people that should not be doing the hard work. Power to them black people, they shouldn't have to work the "minimal jobs." They already did that years ago. Cheese rice!

Cheese rice? I heard of that racial slur.

I studied the History of Africa under Dr. Joseph Kinner and got an A in it, I could say that the dark-skinned people in Africa were limited and supersitious and they probably needed a leash from someone to teach and tell them what to do with their lives but I do not do that. Because it is racist.

The idea is to work together, do not delegate the whole jobs to hispanics -- there are many caucasians and African Americans that has to work together in order to make the society a better place to live and work with. But to blame the caucasians for your fucked-up truths is not the way to go.

Clifford then commented the absurd idea of his own:

There are many reasons why the Black wont take the jobs that Mexcian would do. I am blaming your parent's parent's parent's parent's. Them white people.

If you did study the History of Africa and got A in it. Then you shoudl know that Africa would have been one of the powerful country if only White didnt enslaved our great-great-great grandmother and grandfather. We would never have this racist comments. White belittled us to the level that they treated our ancestors as animal. Hunted our family backen then like animals. They had guns! They did the same thing with Native Americans. I am sure you can think at least two reasons why Black and Native Americans refuse to take jobs or do jobs for White that Mexcian would.

If you look at the American History, there was an influx of caucasians that emigrated to this country after the Civil War -- the majority of Caucasians are NOT responsible of slavery. Clifford or many African Americans cannot hold me responsible for what happened in the past. Cliff has no right to accuse my great-great grandparents who never owned slaves.

Cliff also accused the caucasians of instigating the slavery in Africa which is not true. In fact, for thousands of years, the African tribes always battled against each other, raided against each other and enslaved each other. But when the boats came from India, Arabs and Europeans, the idea of slavery trade has began. Was it the caucasians' fault? No, not really. Back then, the slavery was acceptable practice for many groups. If you want to lay the blame, blame it on Africans for enslaving the others and sell the slaves to Europeans who took them to the United States.

The whole point is that you are racist, Clifford.

C'mon, It is SNL!

I was informed by a certain reader that the NAD found the scene on Saturday Night Live during the Paula Abdul's appearance (which is 2 weeks ago, I believe) where its Weekend Update had a fake deaf character who made racist jokes towards the interpreter who is black, who in turn made fun of deaf guy instead.

Andy Lange, the President of NAD said, "It's stupid and disgusting! The NAD strongly condemns this kind of thing."

Then Andy Lange encouraged members of the deaf community to write and complain to the NBC and FCC about its racist stuff.

My take on this: This is FUCKING Saturday Night Live! Its goal is to entertain people of all backgrounds and sometimes it included making fun of other's tendencies. To me, it implied that the folks now saw us in the mainstreaming world and decided to poke fun at us. That is quite a compliment, all right.

Andy, stop chasing after women whining and be productive about something else -- like working to educate the Republicans about William H. Pryor before he attains the judicial seat in the 11th Circuit of Appeals.

Happy 25th Anniversary, Mount St. Helens!

When I was a kid, I saw the picture of a massive eruption on Richmond Times-Dispatch and asked Dad what is going on.

"Mountain blew up."

I was surprised, "You mean, the mountain get mad and do this?" Dad grinned and said, "No, inside the mountain has hot liquid, save all time then it grew -- mountain can't hold no more. It blows up. Very normal. Many mountains around the world, yes. Name? Volcano!"

Asked Dad, "Kill people?"

"Yes, dumb people who stand too close. They finish true biz gone dead finish! [Dad pointed to the pyrocastic flows] too fast, people no time to escape, impossible. Dumb dumb dumb nitwit pea-brained them!"

I asked if Deaf people was killed or not? "Doubt, many deaf people not dumb stand too close. Only hearing people stubborn always try to see, see but when it blows up, they finish dead. Too bad!"

That was 25 years ago. Thanks to Merritt for reminding me that today is 25th Anniversary of Mount St. Helens eruption which killed 57 people. My good friend, Merritt was in Walla Walla, about 258 miles east of Mount St. Helens. When it erupted, he said that he was in awe of mother nature. It was the first time of his lifetime that he, at the age of 8, realized that mother nature can do whatever it wanted. He could see the ashes plummets into the sky just before it covered the sky. He said that the sky immediately turned into dark like night for the rest of the day.

He went on to explain that the 2nd and 3rd day, it brightened a little but more of "grey days" than "pitch black" on the first day.

Ain't that a grand experience?

If Yellowstone do its job, the whole country probably will witness something like that and Merritt will be one of few people that says, "*Yawn*, been there, done that. Next!"

I rather to have Trump Tower than to have "Freedom" Tower!

When I heard that there would be 1,776-foot tall building in honor of World Trade Center by building a new building that only has 60 stories but the rest of the above is just glasses with irons just to reach 1,776 -- I cringed.

It is another evidence that our patriotism is way overboard. 1,776 is for 1776 -- the year of Independence. Absurd. The name of tower is "Freedom Tower" -- enough is enough. Please. Stop. It.

The design when I first saw it made me barf. I want the massive motherfucking building. When Donald Trump expressed his disgust with the bullshit design, I was relieved. Apparently, the faggots who designed the "Freedom Tower" wanted the building to imitate the Lady Liberty -- what the fuck? Please. Stop. It.

Two planes crashed into Twin Towers. It exploded. It killed thousands of people. Twin Towers collapsed. Shit happens. Move on. Let's just build a massive building and show the world what we are capable of. New Yorkers do not dwell on the past, they reflect but surge ahead in the future with a sense of pride.

That "Freedom Tower" is not the sense of pride -- it is more of "See? We are the land of free!" It is not a sense of pride -- let it go. The majority of New Yorkers do not like this odd sissy looking building.

Its four or five proposed buildings has the roof that seems to tilt downwards -- I dread to imagine if the snow accumulates and it slid off the roof onto people who visited the memorial -- that would be hysterical to see snow maiming the spectators.

If it is 1,776 foot tall, then by all means, make the use of spaces above 60 stories. Don't stop it at 60! I know some tenants are afraid to move in, but give it time -- it will be full in no time. Be proud, be tough, surge ahead! But stop using "freedom", "1776", "Lady Liberty" and all that shit.

It is a slap to the real New Yorkers. Nobody cares about that any longer. They just wanted a great, massive and cool building that reflects the determination of New York, not reflect the patriotism of America outside of New York! After all, they did not do anything for us -- New Yorkers had been always fending itself for years and has been and always will!

Let's face it. The "Freedom Tower" is not cool. It is so barf.

Bring Donald Trump in and he'll shock the world with brazen ideas. At least, it is better than that crapola.

C'mon, New Yorkers!

C'mon, It is Bullshit

Conservatives are crying a river about Newsweek's retraction related to the comments flushing the Koran down the toilet. One conservative guy (You kno who he is, right?) IMmed me out of amusement, I guess, with a line: "Newsweek Lied, People Died!"

Is this a line they stole from Liberals who said, "Bush Lied, People Died. Clinton Lied, Nobody Dies!"?

And let's see ... no weapons of mass destruction, 1,500 American soldiers dead, thousands injured, untold numbers of Iraqis civilians dead which the US Armed Forces treated as animals by refusing to count them as well ... and you Conservatives whined about Newsweek's retraction?

Where were you when Bush lied about the weapons of mass destruction, Bush's enthusiasm to occupy Iraq on false and misleading information which some of the CIA operatives claimed that were pressured by the Bush Administration?

Spare me the hypocrisy, Wojnar.

There were theories on some blogs that the Newsweek were pressured by the Bush Administration to retract or face the wrath of being unpatriotic through other means.

Sounds like ... a typical of Sith?

Remember a while ago I compared Siths with Conservative Republicans? Well, the press are coming out with the exact comments that I said before I even saw the Episode III. You see, I am always right. I was always right. And I will be always right!

When GW Bush said "If you are not with us, you are with the terrorists." -- I was alarmed by that white/black category. Well, when Anakin Skywalker said, "If you're not with me, then you're my enemy." Obi-Wan Kenobi echoed my exact sentiments, "Only a Sith thinks in absolutes."

I have to be a Jedi or something better than Yoda. Hell, I can still remember my Mother weeping when Yoda finally died after living for 900 years. I was stunned when she wept as I saw someone leaving a wallet on the floor, I thought to myself, "My force is indeed dark." I took it. Mom saw it and grabbed it -- I yelled and gestured violently that "Finder-keeper! Finder-keeper!" Mom said, "No, no ... God whacks you if you do not give it back -- !!" Suddenly, the guy came back to look for it -- I grabbed the wallet from Mom and gave it to him, thus making myself look good and Mom looking bad. That guy gave me $5 for safeguarding the wallet. $5? That cheapskate hearie!

When I was a kid coming home for the weekend from deaf school, I told my older brother that I heard about the "famous movie people like titled wars star something?" My hearing brother talked about it and corrected me that it was not Wars Star -- and Mom took us to Ridge Cinema just right across from Regency Square Mall in Richmond, Virginia -- Yeah, Mom paid 6 of us siblings to see the flick along with Mom. When it opened with the famous line: "A long time ago in a galaxy far, far away ..." -- then its famous few yellow words that rolled up from the bottom to the top -- if you can read the tiny words at the top of the roll, you must have an excellent vision! Then suddenly, a ship rolled in -- bam! You see the lasers shooting back and forth from this small ship and the scary white X-ian shit (c'mon to think of this, the destroyer ship looks like a cross if you analyzed it bit more) -- chasing down the vulnerable ship.

Yes, this was done without the captions. We rarely go to the cinemas unless it is worth the time to figure out what one is being said to the other. Hearing people took things for granted -- grr!

You know, a part of me likes Emperor Palpatine because he manipulated others for his needs -- when he said to Luke in Episode VI, "If you cannot be turned to the dark side, then your sister shall be." Luke raised his lightsaber as Darth Vader gets in a fight -- you could see Emperor Palpatine laughing maniacally. That is me. Guess what, I digress once again. I am getting caught in Star Wars hype, obviously.

Back to the subject, my dear dirty Conservatives, filthy Republicans and wacky Xians -- where were you when there was no weapons of mass destruction? Where were you when more than 1,500 American soldiers died? Where were you when GW Bush joked at a fundraising dinner that he thinks the weapons of mass destruction is in this dining room?

So be quiet for a change.

FARRELL MOURNS GRANDFATHER

Hollywood star Colin Farrell has returned home to Ireland for the funeral of his beloved grandfather. Jimmy Monaghan died on Thursday after a long battle with illness.

Farrell once said of his grandfather, "I took my son James to meet him when he was nine weeks old and my grandad said: 'She's a lovely girl.'"

*Labored Breathing*

I was reading the article about Star Wars Episode III: Revenge of the Siths. It mentioned that the film shocked many critics as it brutally transformed Anakin Skywalker into Darth Vader. It may change the way we viewed Darth Vader of who he was.

It also mentioned that the killings are gruesome and grisly. I was intrigued by that. It also mentioned that after the conflict with Obi-Wan Kenobi, Anakin would be maimed so badly that he has to rely on the machines to run his life -- as Darth Vader.

That is good way to make you curious about the Episode III. Some parents are upset that Lucas did it to make the film PG-13 -- I say, fuck the parents. Stick with the storytelling, don't appease the parents.

Anyway, I was googling the 'net about Darth Vader -- I came to these two very interesting links.

One hilarious. One that made me say "What the fuck?"

1. Darth Vader Robbed Pizza Deliveryman

See What Craigslist Can Do For Me?

Got IMmed by a certain friend of mine in New York -- whom we played once before via the Craigslist.org last year. He then invited me to visit his alma mater, Dartmouth College in Hanover, New Hampshire for a weekend last November which I enjoyed immensely and blogged from Hanover, New Hampshire.

And today, he invited me to go with him to Las Vegas and probably will stay in Bellagio Hotel in mid-June or early July. The dates are tentative but it is confirmed that he wanted me to go with him or the trip itself is cancelled.

So much for silly imagination spewed by some folks who thought it is so "dangerous" to wander into Craigslist.org.

Yay. Me off to Las Vegas, maybe I can see Chlms, Jon Gay and Jess for a dinner and a dip in its massive swimming pool and all that shit one day out of a week-long vacation?!

I just wanted to tell you how happy I am that someone finally tells that crazy bitch how she really is. She has "slandered" many people in her day. She preaches this self-richus talk about how she can't stand gay people but then turns around and is the first to tell you how many women have hit on her, in her crazy unrealistic rendition of her past.

She also talks about how lucky she is to be alive after her "carbon monoxide" issue. Her husband was wasted and left the car running. Hello.

She tried to say that I Carrie Cameron "sexually harassed" her at Arthur. Are you serious? Have you seen her? Have you seen me? There is no way I would ever "harass" her, or anyone for that matter. If I was going to turn lesbo, it sure would not be for Amy Kurz. Also I do recall a day that she brought pictures of herself before her breast reduction and after. Forcing me to look at her in a bathing suit is punishment enough, let alone accuse me of harassing her.

I have spoken to a large number of the deaf community and everyone loved the day she left CR. There should be a party every year on this day. She has burned many bridges with a lot of people here in CR. Thank heavens she went somewhere else.

You do have to pity her though. She sits day after day in front of the computer on her little blog, writing her thoughts, misspelling words, making fun of others and the way THEY are illiterate and slandering whoever makes her mad that day. While the world passes her by. If I were a this bitter of a person I would take a long look at my life. In the end all you leave behind is an imprint of your life. I hope mine is nothing like hers.

George Lucas & The Sequel to ...

I'm excited about Star Wars Episode III: The Revenge of Siths but tone down with the commercialism. I feel I am seeing too many Darth Vaders around on the tube. Slow down -- too much hype can backfire, George Lucas.

Good news. It was reported by Variety News that there will be a sequel to the 1982 fantasy film whom we loved: The Dark Crystal.

It will be titled as The Power of the Dark Crystal -- instead of using the muppets, it will use live-action animatronic characters with computer-generator animation.

The film will open in 2007 in time for its 25th Anniversary of the first film, The Dark Crystal. The best part is that the writer of The Dark Crystal is penning for the sequel. At least, it probably will be as good. Here is the tidbit that could make this very good -- remember the original heroes, Jen and Kira -- they are King and Queen and will fight to save their kingdom when the crystal is once again split.

Sounds intriguing? You bet.

Top 10

I got this from USA WEEKEND. Thought it was intriguing. I will comment on each places that I already visited.

Top Places For Fun (2004)
1. Las Vegas -- Of course, the town is 24/7 entertainment city. Each visit I went, drama ensued.
2. Iowa State Fair - Des Moines
3. Times Square, New York City -- What is there to see except the tourists? I can't stand Times Square because of tourists -- they do not know how to walk properly. They suddenly stopped and the commuters crashed into them. I go there only for Broadway plays and avoid the Square as much as can be.
4. Cedar Point, Sandusky, Ohio
5. Provincetown, Cape Cod, Mass -- Ahh, gay people made it a tourist destination but never went there. I heard that you could fuck openly in the beach area, though.
6. Guadalupe River tubing, Texas
7. Audubon Zoo, New Orleans
8. Disneyland, Anaheim, CA
9. National Air and Space Museum, Chantilly, VA
10. Telluride, Colorado

Most Beautiful Places (2003)
1. Red Rock Country (Sedona, Arizona) -- I visited this place once before. It was difficult to explain what it is like.
2. Nighttime view from Mount Washington, Pittsburgh
3. The upper Mississippi River
4. Hawai'i's Na Pali Coast
5. Golden Gate Bridge, San Francisco -- Agreed with this one.
6. Grafton, Vermont
7. Jenny Lake, Grand Teton National Park, Wyoming -- I was there -- the Teton MOuntains simply overwhelmed me.
8. Key Largo to Key West in Florida
9. Clingmans Dome, Great Smoky Mountains National Park, Tennessee
10. The squares of Savannah, Georgia -- It is historical area -- very liberal in that area where gays people can kiss their partners openly. See, that is the whole point -- Liberals make it beautiful and safe. Can the Conservatives? Nah, they can't.

National Treasures (2001)
1. Gettysburg Battlefields, Pennsylvania -- Barf. I went there. It is so barf. I grew up in Virginia, I'm so sick of Civil War reenactments shit.
2. Acadia National Park, Maine
3. Gateway Arch, St. Louis -- I saw it. I'm like, "That's all?"
4. Statue of Liberty, New York -- The closest thing I did is riding the Staten Island Ferry during the nighttime -- I swear the lady sported big boobs when the lights illuminated from the ground floor.
5. National Civil Rights Museum -- I passed Memphis 4 times in my lifetime, if I knew there was a museum like this, I would stop by!
6. Brooklyn Bridge, New York City -- This is the bridge where you can view Manhattan in action from Downtown all the way to Midtown -- the skyscrapers and everything ... it always inspired me each time I walked over the bridge.
7. Acoma Indian Pueblo, Acoma, NM
8. USS Arizona Memorial, Honolulu
9. Hollywood sign , Los Angeles -- Sometimes you cannot see the sign because of smog. Sometimes you can see the sign. Honest to God, I always thought it was massive huge until I visited Los Angeles and realized, "Oh, that is all?"
10. Home, sweet home -- This is true. I once fooled my parents that I'm bringing 2 friends home for the Labor Day Weekend from Gallaudet -- I brought 9 friends instead. And my parents still fed them all. I sincerely hope someone has the picture of us all when the Tropical Storm hits the waterpark which we invaded all day long.

Only In Texas

If it was 4 black men beating up on white guy and left him to die in an open pasture, there would be an uproar in Texas. It was not a long time ago when this fella from Texas whined that there has to be some kind of punishment for African-American kids who roughed and beat up on white teenagers in New York.

This Texan was quick to complain about an incident that happened 1,641 miles away from his backyard but he was largely muted when something happened in his backyard (255 miles away).

What happened is that there were four white boys who lured the mentally disabled African American boy to the white-only party where they could tease, pick and eventually wasted him to a point where this mentally disabled person now cannot walk on his own and cannot speak clearly.

All four white boys were slapped on the wrist on charges that is pretty much meaningless to start with. These four white trash, the jury decided, deserved a second chance instead of facing the music at all. Boo hoo, the white trash made a "stupid mistake", they should not be punished for crippling the mentally disabled person.

Apparently, the mentally disabled African American man is not valued at all, according to the white trash folks in Linden, Texas.

IN Texas where it is OK to raise the Rebel flag next to the American flag, where it is OK that whites sit with whites in this section and blacks sit with blacks in other section. I know because I saw stuff like that in Tennessee and South Carolina. There is an unspeakable rule -- blacks sit over there, whites here -- it is unlawful to segregate but the social rules remain the same.

This is the reason why we needed the hate crimes laws enacted to make sure that the culprits won't get away with this actions.

John Wesley Owens, Dallas Stone, James Cory Hicks and Christopher Colt Amox are four white trash thugs who does not deserve a chance to live and hold a job because they totally destroyed a person's dignity. This was premeditated, wanton and random act of violence upon a minority person. But in towns like Linden where the courts routinely made deals with whites and favored whites over blacks, it did not surprise the African American community.

Just look at this article -- nothing will happen to four white trash folks, but if it was four black thugs on white person -- four black thugs would be lynched so fast that you could not stop the fire alarm from setting itself off.

A typical day in Texas, really. Don't forget to whack a black guy in Texas -- you can get away with it with a slap on the wrist. That is their message to white trash these days.

Which One Is Better: Terry Dolan or Kerry Lofy?

Terry Dolan, like Roy Cohn, is self-loathing Roehmosexual who co-founded the National Conservative Polticical Action Committee, died of AIDS in 1986. You hear me, the scourge of AIDS does not discriminate anyone else. It killed a conservative prick who bashed on gays for years with the line like, "Our nation's moral fiber is being weakened by the growing homosexual movement and the fanatical E.R.A. pushers (many of whom publicly brag they are lesbians)."

I'm so glad Terry is dead. But the NCPAC is ashamed to admit that one of theif founding fathers are faggot. Ask them who Terry Dolan was? They won't remember.

Terry Dolan stated that the secret of fundraising is to try to "make them angry and stir up hostilities. The shriller you are, the easier it is to raise funds. That's the nature of the beast."

How great is that? That is why the Conservatives insulted, tarred and bashed the Liberals from day one. Payback is going to be a huge bitch, Conservative pricks.

You can read more about it in New York Times.

I'm so glad that this heterosexual guy was very thoughtful -- he took out a gay friend whose had no date to the prom and it caused a huge drama and the heterosexual is challenging the citation. This heterosexual guy has to be hot in my book. Way to go, Kerry Lofy -- you rock my boat!

As you can see, Kerry Lofy is making his own path. He is brilliant young man -- people who did this to him needs to get a life of his own.

Even George Washington Said So!

It is Sunday. There is nothing I love to lambast these nutty X-ians on Sunday. Of course, when I'm done with it, it is time for another episode of Malcolm In The Middle, The Simpsons, Desperate Housewives and Vida La Bam!

Here is an interesting tidbit -- this country was not founded for, of and by the Christians. The X-ians attempted to say that one needs to look at our currency where it reads: "In God We Trust" -- which implied that the nation was founded on Christian ideology. It was not.

In fact, the currency of this country never had these words until 1956 -- after the years of persistence by Xian nuts to instill "some Xian ideology" in the currency to affirm the nation's beliefs.

Remember, during 1950s, there was this Red Scare -- communism is godless ideology -- Oh, God, we must combat this Great Evil -- how? Put "In God We Trust" in our currency.

*spits*

I saw one quote from the email I received from a certain blogger, it reads which I agreed completely -- it came from whom? George Washington, the first President of the United States. Xians, read and weep:

The government of the United States is not, in any sense, founded on the Christian religion.

For Kathleen P.J.M. Vercruysse

Kathleen, congratulations with your graduation from Gallaudet. This girl was introduced to me by a good friend of mine, Rico who hailed from Amsterdam, The Netherlands in Summer 2001. At that time, Rico told me that Kathleen will join with us to Paramount Kings Dominion two days after she arrived from her country, Belgium.

Rico warned Kathleen that I'm going to americanize her like I did with Rico and Berna. It was all in good tease. I met Kathleen before everyone else did -- I immediately liked her, her aura and her sense of adventure.

On the first Saturday of June where each year, there is Deaf Awareness Day at Paramount Kings Dominion, hundreds of Deaf people flocked to the amusement park, taking advantage of cheap prices and a chance to see old friends and make new friends as well.

I drove down to Doswell, Virginia from Washington, DC with Kathleen and Rico. It took about nearly 1 hour and 45 minutes to get there. But with Rico and Kathleen yakking, the timing was not important -- more than 10 times, we saw the familiar faces and hands moving in some cars en route to Doswell -- we knew they were Deaf or associated with Deaf peers on way to the amusement park.

Kathleen complained that she needed to stop at a convenience store to purchase the pack of cigarettes. We exited just south of Fredericksburg, Virginia to a Texaco gas station. Three of us walked in the store as I rushed to the bathroom to piss. I was clearly irritated with the hearing peers around us who thought they are better than us. So I just either 005 at them or stare at them as I would want to infect them with something else.

Kathleen was bit apprehensive about buying cigarettes as she was not profilic in English. So Rico and I pitched in to help her whatever she needed. She chose the pack of Marlboro cigarettes. The cashier asked her for identification. Kathleen did not understand. I told her if she has a passport or driver's license. She said she has Belgium Driver's License. I told her to use it. She gave it to the cashier.

The cashier pulled the book that contained the proof of identification in 50 states and 13 provinces/terrorites in Canada. I quickly intervened the cashier that she is from Belgium.

The cashier looked at me as if I was dumb. I stared at her. She continued to search the book to see if Kathleen's ID matches one of them.

I slammed my finger on the notepad and said, "She is from Belgium!"

She kept on going through and looked at Kathleen and said, "Sorry, I can't sell you this to you because your identification is not in the book."

I shot back, "The book contains only 50 states and Canada!"

The lady said, "Her identification is not in Canada."

I wrote, "Belgium is in Europe!" Then signed in a rapid manner, "You dumbfuck redneck white trash!" to which Rico and Kathleen broke into loud guffaws. I wrote again, "Europe is NOT in Canada or in the United States, get me the manager!"

You could see the hurt in her eyes as I scoffed her to get out of my way and the manager came. I blasted the manager to smithereens that Belgium is a fucking country in Europe -- get that fucking book out of our way! Sure enough, Kathleen went back to my car and retrieved her passport to prove that she is from Europe.

Rico said, "That's enough. Let's go."

Kathleen was bit shaken but offended that some white trash in Virginia actually insisted that Belgium is part of Canada one way or other.

Rico, always obsessed with Mountain Dew, hopped in my car with Kathleen and I wrote back with the final words -- I must have the final words -- to quote McFly's ASL slang: "Me Finish Dry Hot Dog!" -- I wrote, "I understood why you are working as a cashier, retard."

I walked out like Alexis Carrington Colby. Then I got in the car and told Kathleen and Rico -- both smiled with the sense of triumphant feelings. Nobody should doubt us in the first place.

Get this through your skulls -- Belgium is NOT in Canada!

Me finish dry hot dog!

Frank's Pub

Go figure.

Gus was too sick to go anywhere, so I stayed home to take care of his. So I missed out on the second night of Liberty Bears but tonight, I am *not* going to miss a thing.

There is an Irish pub right across the street which I checked out. Frank's Pub is very heterosexual bar. When I entered, people stared at me -- wondering who I am. That's OK. I went upstairs, suddenly, I saw four white guys using the billard pool sticks to whack a black guy -- a racist attack? But on my right side, I saw 3 black guys whooping the white guys to do the job -- apparently, it was not the case of racism.

Drama ensued for few minutes before things settled down -- met nice fellows and chatted the best way I can.

Then went home at 3 AM. Only to find out that the Sorenson Videophone Box is dead -- why? Gus left the plant on the top of the box, blocking the vent -- thus trapped it and killed it. Gus is a machine murderer.

But Great Gods, he's feeling much better and ready to play around tonight. I'm off to see Liz tonight. And few bars in Center City. It should be fun. OH, one thing -- we went to a small festival at Norristown Area High School called "West Norriton Day" -- all I see is white trash and all that b.s. It's nice. I wanted a sno-cone -- so I cut in the line, using my "ear" thing to get what I wanted -- there was a long line for funnel cakes (which I do not want) along with the sno-cones. I did not want to wait behind people who is waiting for funnel cakes -- I only wantes the sno-cones so I cut in and tell the guy to get me sno-cone then we're out. Just like that. Har, har.

Just read this article -- Russia is making a lot of efforts to PAY back the debts -- they are progressive in comparison with us. WE still owed a lot of $$ to many countries including the United Nations. We are "supposed" to be the richest country in the world but we have trillions in debts and yet, we do not make it our priority.

Russia makes it a priority -- smart move. Our government is dumb. They are concerned about the social security, the war on terrorism, the assault on gays and minorities rights, to occupy Iraq, plans to whack Iran and North Korea -- while Russia is quietly taking care of its debts then they probably will end up as one of the leading countries in the world along with the United Kingdom while the United States, under the leadership of Republican idiots, fell apart.

Hell, I'm all for it.

Oh, by the way, Bill Frist, you idiot -- you think being Congressman meant you can be above the law? Even to park illegally to buy some shoes does not mean you are above the law. My friends, I bet, he will try to deal with his "friends" in other places to get his parking ticket waived.


Have fun whatever you do -- OH, yeah, Gus' mother has a swimming pool -- only two blocks away -- meaning what? You get the drift.

Base Closures, Walter Reed Medical Center And An Update

Base Closures: Wait a minute! Bush asked for billions of dollars to fight "terrorism" around the globe and the Pentagon are closing 33 bases? When Clinton proposed the base closings, Republicans whined and fought each step of the way. Now the Pentagon is allowed to do this? Our Armed Forces are going down the toilet.

We'll be bankrupt, anyway.

Walter Reed Medical Center: Walter Reed Medical Center is owned by the Armed Forces and it is slated to be closed as one of 33 base closings proposed by the Pentagon. I'll miss the weird museum next to the Medical Center where you get to observe the human baby with one eye, the human baby that seems to be some kind of fish. Very weird but entertaining!

Carrie Wants You To Know: Remember the entry that I talked about the Trekkies tend to be pedophiles not a while ago. Well, in this article, they found the exploited girl ... in Pittsburgh. She is doing well, her adoptive father is in jail for molesting her.

Virginia is for Dumb Conservatives: As many of you knew, there is an ongoing struggle between the alumni, the city of Staunton and the State Board of Education in what to do with the deaf schools in Virginia -- to consolidate them? To build a new school? Or to remain in Staunton and renovate at the cheaper price? According to this article, there are lack of priority amongst the Conservative Republicans -- the quality of education at VSDB needs to improve and why did the State Board of Education ask about whether if the VSDB has "suspended indoor track" -- what the fuck? Why is it important? That is Virginia for you.

Tonight, I'm out to Liberty Bears stuff in Center City. Oh, I got a videophone call from Carl Way, he said that there is going to be a party at ... Mundey & Cowden's place -- should we crash and destroy the incessant pool?

Gallaudet Commencement

Before anyone else can attack me outright on this -- congratulations to the Class of 2005.

I had been watching Gallaudet Commencement during the live webcast. It is nice, so nice, to have the captions when you cannot understand I. King Jordan's fingerspelling. Either he's bad fingerspeller or I'm getting old.

Andy Lange has a moustache. Who does he thinks he is? Tom Selleck? Andy, your moustache won't get women behind your wife's back!

Anyway, let's back to the list of people that I knew ... I'd wish to congratulate some and bash some as well. You know how it is -- I cannot live without bashing someone else in the process. That's what makes you guys snicker behind the monitor where nobody else knew. YOu can always tell your friends, "Did you read what RT said? That was so awful!" But the reality is that when nobody is around you, you laughed at the comments I made because it is SO true.

The folks that I do not know who has been eliminated because they wasted my space and time. These ones who got mentioned are, rest assured, going to be commented. Anything to add, feel free to talk about it in the comment box!

Imagination Is Great

To imagine is good. To believe in the imagination that can take you anywhere else in the universe has to be good. Reading novels, comic books and watching movies are all part of imagination that makes us all ... human, right?

I just completed watching "Finding Neverland" -- it was inspirational film. It tells us that it is good ... no ... wonderful for us to imagine things, even if it seems to be out of ordinary with reality.

When I see Sir James Matthew Barrie watching four boys jumping on their beds, I immediately understood. Why did the boys jump on the beds? Because they wished they could fly. Suddenly, the slow motion of the scene showed the boys slowly flying out of their bedroom. The slow motion of the boys started to fly off their beds made me have goosebumps all over the body.

Second star on the right and straight until morning!
The film is about the author of Peter Pan, Sir James Matthew Barrie who was inspired by a family of four boys with no father and a dying mother and eventually wrote the play that is immortalized today with millions of people loving Peter Pan. Peter was named after Peter Llewelyn Davies, one of four fatherless boys.

It was moving, inspirational and triumphant film for anyone who loves to dream.

I dream to conquer the universe and remake it in my image. That is good imagination, is it?

More Information on Jeff Beardsley's Lawsuit

North Las Vegas Police Spokesman Tim Bedwell said, "Our first line of communication with deaf individuals is written notes. That's what we teach our officers and that's what we practice."

That is one big FAT lie. I know because I experienced several times with different police officers across the nation -- they always discriminated. Know why they discriminated? Because they do not have a deaf person working in the police department! If they had one or two, they would see, observe and learn how to deal with deaf people. But no, they forbade a deaf person from working for the police department. Whose fault is it? Hearies, of course!

Enjoy this and that!

The last time I heard, Jeff was living in San Diego -- now in Las Vegas. Int-eresting.

Deaf News, Vocational Rehabilitatives Services, Jeff Beardsley and Stupid Hearie Cops

A friend of mine IMmed me today and told me to check this. I was amused. I'm sure only Deaf people would be able to read what one said, but hearing people who knew nothing about American Sign Language -- feel free to ask us if you wanted to know what it was being said.

On another hand, it was not surprising that the Bush Administration did this.

And last, I was surprised to see the name, Jeff Beardsley on the lawsuit versus the city of North Las Vegas. Jeff Beardsley was very self-loathing person at Gallaudet, always ready to lash out at anyone else for doing an insignificant thing. Everyone knew he's gay, he's flaming queen -- but he made it sure that nobody has to know the truth. It was bit ridiculous.

We were on good terms -- at least, I like to keep this way, he has a character of his own -- but certainly not the type that I would mingle on a daily basis.

I am sure that Jeff antagonized the Police Officers in North Las Vegas but the Police Officers knew better than to tell people to read the lips -- and refused to provide the necessary steps to communicate in an effective manner.

Fuck you, GHW Bush for starting this concept, "Read my lips-synchin' shit!" By using this concept, the Police Officers often berated Deaf people when it comes to automobile accidents, ran red light or pulled over for anything else.

One time, my friend lost control of a friend's SUV on a wet intersection and slammed into the tree right next to the bank at the shopping center in Greenbelt after leaving Denny's Restaurant. Anderson, Manny, Wittig, Jeff, Toby and I endured such a bizarre incident with the local police officers in Greenbelt, Maryland.

We waited for the cops to arrive. When the cops arrived, they did not come to us to help us out. They berated, screamed and yelled at us -- we kept on saying, "Get the paper pad and pen!" One dumbfuck hearie cop came to my face and screamed at the top of his lungs that I could feel the vibrations, "READ MY LIPS!"

One cop kept on putting the flashlight in Deaf person's face -- excuse me, we need to use our eyes to communicate -- quit fucking pointing that in our faces! I attempted to tell the female hearie cop to tell the male hearie cop not to do that -- the female hearie cop then told the male hearie cop -- he ran up to my face and screamed me to back off.

I grinned and told my friends to remain calm and stay defiant. I do not want anyone of us to miscommunicate to a point where they can use it against us (some of us were drinking!) in the court of Law. I kept on gesturing for a paper pad and a pen. This male hearie cop refused -- I got fed up and walked back to the wrecked SUV to search for the paper pad and pen so that I can write down the name of the cop(s) and the badge numbers. When the male hearing cop saw me trying to look at his badge -- he quickly covered it and pushed me off and tried to block me from checking his car's number.

He ordered me and my friends to stay in one area as one female hearie cop urged the male hearie cop to abandon us. Yeah, you heard it right, the fucking hearie cops abandoned us on the spot at 4 or 5 AM in the morning -- how nice! They are not there to serve or to protect us. They are there to berate, alienate or control us of our actions -- that's why when I heard a cop being killed by anything else, I thought: "One pig down, more to go."

Fuck 'em. Drop dead, you stinking hearie cops!

Men Will Always Cheat

When a guy told me that he is loyal, trustworthy and honest -- I tend to roll my eyes slowly and smiled at my friends. Even with the fact that I have penis, I am aware that men do cheat. They do lie. It is human nature to lie.

Even the Borg Queen told Data, "You are becoming more human everyday, you are learning how to lie."

Even The Oracle asked The Architect in the last film of the Matrix Triology if The Architect is going to uphold the promise to the inhabitants of Zion that they will not attack Zion. The Architect chuckled and said something to an extent, "Remember, we are not humans."

By that, he meant humans do lie, humans do break promises, humans do things like this.

2,000 years ago, it was unlawful for a single woman to be pregnant under any circumstances. If a single jewish woman got pregnant without the proof of marriage, she would be stoned to death. Mary got pregnant. Oops. The common sense of human nature is to lie in order to save your life!

Simply put, point your finger in the sky and say, "He did it." You got the cosmic lie that continues to run today. I am talking about the possible theory of this -- it is nature for anyone to lie in order to spare their lives from certain deaths. Mary was no different, in my opinion.

It was no difference when Bill Clinton lied about his blowjob with Monica Lewinsky. It was no difference when Roger Kessler plagiarized an article for some newspaper. It was no difference when George W Bush claimed that he served honorably in the Armed Forces.

To lie and to be a hypocrite is two big difference. The Scranton Times in the city of Scranton about 111 miles north of where I am, declined to publish the articles mentioning their own Congressman Don Sherwood (R-PA) cheated on his wife with 29 years old woman. That old geezer, Don Sherwood, is 64 years old.

Republican or Democrat, everyone cheats at some points during the lifetime. But Congressman Sherwood is hypocrite. That is my beef -- lie or not, but he is hypocrite -- he advocated the morals and criticized others for bad morals but look at him, he cheated, did he?

I was amused when I found this, apparently someone is pissed off and decided to showcase the men who cheated on their spouses. I wonder if "Huh" can help their spouses by identifying them?

It was mentioned that our own brave soldiers and courageous police officers were busted in drug stings in Arizona recently by the United States Drugs Enforcement Agency. 16 of them. This proved that we need to legalize drugs. The War on Drugs has been the losing cause for years and will continue to do so.

IN Florida, I saw the brief segment on CNN that the Republican senator from Florida is suing the woman from Miami for mentioning in the papers that he was married six times. He is suing her for defamation of character -- the truth is that he was married only five times.

Five or six? What is the difference? If you fucked 110 times and someone said you fucked 112 times, is it big difference?

Absurdity is my medicine to stay alive in this world. OH, by the way, you do lie sometimes, though. Don't bother to lie -- remember, each time you lie, you are becoming more human than ever.

Cheers,

Scott McClellan, Are You Retard?

Perhaps the worst press secretary of White House in the last 200 years has to be Scott McClellan. This boy thought that the press corps are stupid.

Did you notice that the Bush Administration seemed to be obsessed with September 11? Everything revolves the 11th of September. These dumbass folks need to stay in New York and watch how New Yorkers adapted to the demise of World Trade Center. I think it is safe to say that the New Yorkers are living very normal in comparison with the folks in White House. They are already past the mourning and denial stage, what happened in the Nation's Capital was dumb.

Did you know that nobody notified Bush until the whole drama ensued ended, then 36 minutes later, Bush was briefed by the secret service that White House was evacuated, and this, that and there? 36 minutes later? What if something really happened that can affect the nation's security in minutes and yet, let's not bother Bush with his "workout exercise"?

When the White House Press Corps asked Scott why they did not notify Bush about what happened. Scott repeated the bullshit line 10 times that there are protocols that were placed right after the September 11 drama.

What protocols?

Rubbish. Scott is the classic 'tard.

The Conservatives and Republicans complained that the Democrats are filled with special interest groups. If you look at different groups like "Focus on the Family", "Traditional Values Coalition", "Progress for America" and "Concerned Women of America" -- they are all special interests for Conservatives and Republicans!

Who is lying now?

Oh, GW Bush was biking in the afternoon while everyone else works and ran for their covers? Is this way the President is supposed to serve? By exercising at noon? Not many average Americans can do that at noon -- they had to do it before going to work or after work, and he can?

The WB Better NOT Cancel Jack & Bobby

As Chlms can testify, I am not a fan of hour-long TV shows. I preferred 30-minute shows because I lack the patience to endure an hour-long of television shows. But Desperate Housewives and Jack & Bobby turned out to be the most interesting shows I ever had watched in a long time.

The last episode of Jack & Bobby of the season (or permanently?) was beautifully scripted.

Seeing Bobby stretching out with his older brother, Jack before they head out for a run around the neighborhood was quite a blessing because it may be the first time that Jack realized that he cared for his little brother -- so he invited him for a run. Bobby asked Jack, "If I grew up taller than you, will I be better than you?"

Jack smiled, "No, you're my little brother. I'm always ahead of you all the time."

Bobby scowled a little, it was clear that Bobby truly looked up to Jack as much as Jack does not like it to be.

Shortly afterwards, during the slow motion that seemed to affect my emotions as Jack ran right ahead of Bobby. Slowly, Bobby ran past Jack as Jack slowly smiled before the camera panned out to end the show. Jack smiled because he finally realized he loves his family and cares for Bobby as well. He is there to push Bobby as hard as can be.

I found out who would be the President in 2041. One of the brothers would be dead before their attempt to run for the President. And I was glad that one of siblings got to meet their real father whom their mother made a promise to the father not to let the children see their father ... in the prison. I was amused that it mentioned that the United States would join with Mexico during the water shortage crisis that led to the War of the Americas as nearly all countries in North America fought nearly all countries in South America.

I suspected that the show will be cancelled. Which is why they chose to reveal the surprising cliff-hanger of who is going to be the President in 2041.

Even if it is fictional, I really enjoyed the show. The mother (Grace McAllister) is Liberal, one brother (Jack McAllister) is moderate Conservative, one brother (Bobby McAllister) is moderate Liberal. And they all clashed with each other but they all are protective of each other.


That's what we need to do with ourselves. Too bad, the dirty Conservatives, the filthy Republicans and wacko X-ians ripped the lines of decency when it comes to respect one's opinions without resorting to insults. Who started the insults? It was Conservatives who routinely made derogatory remarks about the Liberals' beliefs -- they damaged it all. That's why I made it clear that they are dirty, filthy and wackos.

Why Flush the Koran?

In Afghanistan, there were deadly anti-American riots because the Muslims found out that the Marines flushed the Koran down the toilet in front of detainees at Guantanamo Bay in Cuba.

Why would they do that? Oh, I forgot! The majority of the Armed Forces aren't smart to start with. Talk with them, you'll see what I meant. I love to mingle with them because they made me laugh. It was not surprising that they flushed the Koran down the toilet to demoralize the Muslim detainees' beliefs. They probably thought that it was no big deal because it is not the Holy Bible, though.

It was mentioned that the State Department will investigate the incident. My ass. They always investigated and exonerated everyone involved except for the "bad guys".

Even I'm mean at times, I wouldn't do that. ON second thought, I have several Holy Bibles that I wanted to get rid of -- I can flush one just to see what others reacted. AFter all, it's only a book -- it will get wet and disappear into the sewage (or it might clog the pipes, though) like any books.

It won't get "holy" or all that imaginative things out of the book itself to protect itself.

You know, this reminded me of Rowenger. We were suitemates in a cheap-assed apartment right across from Gallaudet, he needed a thinly sheet of paper to roll for weed. He asked me if I have the Holy Bible -- I chuckled and said, yeah, over there on my shelf -- I always wanted to get rid of it but never managed to get around to it.

He took the bible and rip a page off, "You know that these Bibles' thin papers make it the perfect stuff to roll and smoke weed?"

I shook my head.

And he did the deed. And it did not kill us both, though.

Mayor James West Is Enemy of Deaf People

I had a conversation with a friend of mine from Washington who was on the Board of Washington State School for the Deaf in Vancouver, Washington -- he mentioned that Mayor James West, the embattled mayor of Spokane who was exposed by The Spokesman-Review newspaper as a conservative Republican who preys on younger boys in late 1970s and early 1980s, frequently voted to prevent the state school for the deaf from getting funds to buy textbooks for school needs.

It was common knowledge that James West viewed Deaf people as aloof, as a group of degenerates that does not deserve to get any attention from the state government. James West, used to be the Majority Leader of the State House in Olympia, bashed and ignored the needs of Deaf school in Washington when it was going through major changes with the new Superintendent, Dr. Len Aaron. Dr. Len Aaron seemed to give up and left the Washington School for the Deaf so that he can have free reigns in running a deaf school in Atlanta.

Let's see, Mayor James West is the classic example of self-loathing Roehmosexual who waged battles against the minorities (Deaf, gays and women), he complained that the Spokesman-Review "brutally outed" him in a vicious manner that he could not defend himself by any means.

Kiss my ass, West. You alienated everyone else in the process, took advantage of everything and in the end, everyone else abandoned you. It is something you deserved for what you did, West.

The Capital Scare

It is silly. Thanks to the Patriot Act, thanks to the paranoia of terrorism by the Bush Administration, there was such a massive drama in Washington, DC when a small but cute plane, CESSNA flew into the no-fly zone. The same plane that crashed into White House and did not really make much damage during the Clinton Administration.

But this time, when it flew in the "no-fly zone" about 17 miles away from the Nation's Capital, massive drama ensued in the Capital and in White House -- people nearly trampled upon each other as people shoved and ran out of the Capital.

Says a lot about our status of paranoia, manufactured by the Bush hooligans who wanted to scare us.

Thanks for the hilarious recaps on CNN of folks running for their lives. I rolled my eyes because it ain't new. It happened before. And will happen again in the future.

It sends a message that we need to get a life. Stop being paranoid about the little things in life.

How Appropriate!

I am: 18% Republican.

"You're a tax-and-spend liberal democrat. People like you are the reason everyone else votes for guys like Reagan or George W."

Are You A Republican?

Which One Is Better: Tap or Bottled Water?

I knew it. I tend to buy a bottled water then when I'm done with it, I used the tap water to fill the bottled water. Tasted just fine.

"20/20" took five bottles of national brands of bottled water and a sample of tap water from a drinking fountain in the middle of New York City and sent them to microbiologist Aaron Margolin of the University of New Hampshire to test for bacteria that can make you sick, like e. coli.

"There was actually no difference between the New York City tap water and the bottled waters that we evaluated," he said.

Enjoy the article. Be sure to save your money by drinking the tap water from now on.

Good bye, John Bolton!

As liberal, I am very open about my sex life because I have nothing to hide. I think engaging in a group sex is OK as long as it is consent by the peers involved. It is not my thing, though.

Conservatives claimed to abhor it. Bush advocated the abstinence programs over safe sex programs. Republicans, X-ians and Conservatives brutally attacked Bill Clinton when he played with Monica Lewinsky in the Oval Office. It is private between Clinton and Lewinsky, not the world's, right? No, the Republicans said that the public has the right to know since Clinton is the public figure!

X-ians, Conservatives and Republicans clamored for laws against gays, against people of their privacy rights. If they wanted to play this game, the Liberals exposed Jeff Gannon, himself a conservative Republican reporter for being an escort. The Liberals exposed Spokane's Mayor James West (himself a conservative Republican who is also anti-gay) for chasing little boys.

And this time, Larry Flynt, the owner of Hustler's Magazine whose won the case against Jerry Falwell in the United States Supreme Court related to the freedom of press versus indecency, announced today that he has evidences that John Bolton, the appointee to the United Nations as the US Ambassador, forced his first ex-wife to engage in group sex activities in New York's Plato's Retreat during the 1970s and 1980s. John's ex-wife divorced him because she was not comfortable with Bolton's pressures to engage in group sex.

John wants to be the representative of this country for the United Nations. Many people complained that John was abrasive, mean and confrontational person if things do not go his way. Bush wanted the kind of person to berate the others in the United Nations in order to follow the US's wishes, not by compromises.

If John Bolton wants to be the US Ambassador for the United Nations, he becomes the public figure -- which means what? We have the right to know what is going on in his life, his past and his sexual activities, like it or not!

After all, that is what many others did to Bill Clinton.

People who lives in glass house should not throw stones at others. When will you learn this lesson, my dear dirty Conservatives, filthy Republicans and wacko Xians?

Why is that the ultra-conservative pricks, sickening Republicans and lying X-ians have the right to attack others of immoral charges but they can engage in these activities? Is it OK for them practice but not OK for anyone else to do the same?

Many liberals clamored for the personal freedom -- which means the freedom to have a personal choice, the right to privacy -- the Conservatives does not want that for others to have the personal choice nor the right to privacy. They wanted it for themselves but not for others. It has been like that for years, time for that illusion is over.

Larry Flynt rules!

What? Picture of Me?

Never had this experience when I was in New York. Few days ago, I was bored. I decided to check the craigslist.org's Philadelphia section. I posted an ad to have good time with a guy for few hours if possible.

I got few responses, three to be exact. In New York, I probably got 15 to 20, I'd have to screen them out. But here in the city of Brotherly Love, it is kinda odd. So one of them talked about playing together. I listed the requirements, he listed his. We agreed to trade the pictures. He sent me the picture. I saw it and flinched.

It was the picture of me that he sent. I flinched, then smiled and was amused that someone thought I was that da bomb. I shot back with no attachment, "Hey, no offense, but this picture you sent is me. I know it is mine. Why do you use it to post as yourself?"

His response was: "Sorry, it was a coincidence we have the same picture."

Dumbfuck fuckwad.

David Barton Gym

One of the "prestigious" gym in New York, David Barton Gym, which is owned by David Barton, a heterosexual married man living in Miami is located in Chelsea.

Like many gym in New York, gay sex seems to be rampant in gym, much to my disgust. My friend claimed that he was shocked to see two gay guys fucking on the top of the lockers at NYSC Gym because on the top of lockers, you could get fucked and watch the front door opening or not -- if it opens and someone who works for the gym, one can jump off the top of the lockers and act as if nothing happened. My friend dressed up after a workout and noticed the fall of the opened condom bag landing on the floor. He turned upwards and his eyes nearly popped out when he saw two legs in the air as another guy humped between the flying legs.

Perhaps, the only nicest place I can think of any gymnasium is Equinox -- they literally enforced the rules by sending the workers in the locker rooms every 5 to 8 minutes, either to clean up or monitor the rooms.

But NYSC, they don't give a shit. I know because I visited.

However, for David Barton Gym, it costs $950 annual membership fee. It claims to be all that luxury for a simple gymnasium -- this gymnasium is located in the same building where the famous song about YMCA Village Boys were inspired. IN fact, it used to be the YMCA before it was converted into David Barton Gym.

Yes, Dylan, Manny and Toby -- this was the same building that all of us took our showers when we first visited New York.

However, a heterosexual man was fed up with David Barton Gym's lackadaisal efforts to reduce the rampant of gay sex in the gym so he is suing for $25K. Good for him. I just think that these fags needed to get a life.

P.S. David Barton is straight? Married? But look at the picture, for God's sake. He is so fag as things go by.

Update: Remember the scene in "To Wong Foo, Thanks for Evertyhing, Julie Newmar" where RuPaul made an appearance on the stage to announce the winner of Miss New York Pageant and the boy in chains walked shirtless to RuPaul. RuPaul catcalled, "I do not know who he is, but if there is a snowstorm tonight, he's going to be on my tires." People erupted in cheers. That boy in chains is David Barton.

Ew. Not my thing.

Stupid Principal, Stupid Teacher and Stupid Homophobes

I'm proud of four students who did something positive and they got suspended for this -- it is shameful that the school did not cover the graffiti in the first place and forced the students to do something about it.

The school should suspend itself for being inactive in the first place.

Bet you a dollar or two that the guy from Rhyhtm With Right (RWR) will say that it is justified punishment for four students to put something positive on the graffiti to dispel the homophobia in the school system.

What a jerk.

HIV Rises In Red States

According to the article, you are better off living in Costa Rica or in some South American country than in Durham, North Carolina because of HIV infections.

Between 2001 to 2003 (Hint: Bush Administration), 36 percent rises in the state of North Carolina.

Among the high rates of HIV infections are Louisiana, Georgia, Alabama, Mississippi, South Carolina and North Carolina because it lacked the means to reach men who do not think they are gay but have sex with men anyway. They are often called as "Down Low" -- most men claimed that they do fuck but do not kiss, that automically made them not gay or bisexual at all. Why? Fear. From whom? The society that viewed homosexuality in a negative manner.

So these occurred in where? Red states. Think about it. The Republicans! The Xians! The Conservatives -- who claimed to have the best solutions in many things -- but guess what? Their solutions failed miserably.

I stopped caring about the Southerners' problems since they favored conservatives, Republicans and Bush policies -- do I care? Let them rot under the banner of Jesse Helms country.

Best Quote of the Day

Saw a kid walking me by at the grocery store, his t-shirt reads: Normal People Scare Me!

True words were never spoken, dear boy!

It is interesting that more than 225 people visited my blog per day, but more than 446 viewed my blog per day. My page views is fast approaching 100,000.

As for McWeenie, he can't even even reach 100 visits nor views per day. Says a lot.

And I guess I try to do my job -- that is, to entertain you all.

Hope you enjoy this blog. Don't forget to submit your bitch sessions by 20th next week -- I already got 10, let's kick some ass.

This weekend is the Liberty Bears Weekend in Philadelphia, you can bet that I'll check it out and see what it is all about.

Check BuckNakedBison.com for one funny article. I got a kick out of it.

Oh, yeah, a new friend of mine in Philadelphia is going to design a new look for my blogsite in few weeks -- this new friend swears that it will propel me to the national spotlight and there will be some changes as well. Stay tuned, my readers. Be afraid, be very afraid!

RAD & CMRA For Whom? Themselves

To quote the infamous comment by Jeff Gannon, the Capital Metropolitan Rainbow Alliance "who seem to have divorced themselves from reality," when it comes to host the national conference for Deaf GLBTs in Washington, DC this coming July 19-23, 2005.

Why? There are numbers of reasons. Lack of information. An abrupt change of hotel which moved from Thomas Circle which is very close to DuPont Circle to Downtown which is pretty far away from any gay bars/clubs. Using the Metro? Yeah, right ... during the weekdays, it closed earlier, which is not good for us all.

To clear up the confusion, the conference is on July 19 to 23 -- which means "Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday, Friday and Saturday" -- that is five nights.

Prior to my first visit to 2001 RAD Conference in Seattle, they had a website with counter to let us know how many people had registered -- in fact, it has a record-breaking of more than 500 registered a month before the conference started. The cost of registration for a combo ticket in Seattle was $175, I believe.

Now it is $350 for a combo ticket with lack of information on what kind of workshops and all that shit -- by that, it is absurd. It sends a ripple effect on the Deaf GLBTs across the country -- I asked a friend in Atlanta, few friends in Philadelphia, few friends in New York, one friend in Los Angeles and one in Phoenix -- that is the total of 10 friends that I asked out of curiosity, only 2 will go. None will pay for the combo ticket at that price -- one said that the website on RAD.org and deafCMRA.org lacked the comprehensive information on specific things that might attract people to come to Washington for 19th Biennial conference.

I even asked one particular person who is involved with the committee about the numbers of persons that already registered -- he refused to identify and said that we could "find out" when we are there.

Such a baloney way to hook up the bait -- it indicated that the numbers of registrants are low.

It seemed to me that the Committee has not considered the facts that the economy in the last few years are shitty to start with, not many people got to have the pay raise and all that. But that does not matter to the RAD Board and the Committee at all.

They went ahead and reserved the Conference at Grand Hyatt Hotel that costs $179 per night plus tax. Make it $200 per night for five nights = $1000. This is a hotel with no swimming pool. I can find a hotel $99 in Thomas Circle with a swimming pool!

Plus $350 for combo ticket. Total is $1,350. Not only that, remember many people will fly over. Some costs as low as $200, some costs as high as $800, especially with the ones who came from Europe, Asia and Australia! That is nearly or over $2,000 in total just to get in RAD 2005 Conference -- that is with only 3 MEALS for the whole week! Not to mention that we'd have to shed more money on food and drinks for our own time as well as checking out with the International Deaf Leather and Deaf Cub & Bear contest ($30).

The truth is that it is all bullshit.

In fact, I will go no matter what but I am not going to buy the combo ticket. I will pay $20 for registration, $75 for Miss RAD Pageant/Buffet -- that's it. The rest can kiss my ass. I plan to attend the International Deaf Leather & Deaf Cub & Bear contest as well!

I asked one person who is involved with the committee to explain the reasons and to find the solution, he declined and kept on saying, "whatever" when I pointed out the issues that seemed to be ridiculous. I may come across as blunt and may be perceived as rude but the whole point is not about rudeness or how one worked hard for this -- but how can it benefits us all?

Basically, I checked with few friends of mine -- they said that they will come down to RAD for two nights only (Friday and Saturday) and won't pay the combo ticket. One chuckled, "Fuck 'em, they think they're above us."

The Conference was supposed to be at Washington Plaza Hotel, the gay-friendly hotel by Thomas Circle which has easy access to 4 gay bars and a brief stroll to 17 Street bars. The Committee refused to say why they changed the hotel, they kept on saying "It did not work out, it did not work out."

The Washington Plaza Hotel may not have enough rooms, there are 5 hotels right around Thomas Circle and on Massachusetts Avenue -- Wyndham Hotel, Courtyard Marriott, Holiday Inn and Carylyle Suites Hotel. They are all within less than 5 minute of walk to the Washington Plaza Hotel should the RAD Conference held at that place. The best part of all is that this particular hotel has a swimming pool! I want to get drunk and swim as well! I did before and it was hysterical!

I thought I planned to go for the whole week -- I decided to trim down to Thursday, Friday and Saturday. And guess what? I am going to pay only $95 for that shit and I'm going to work with a friend of mine to reserve a room in Thomas Circle or DuPont Circle -- who wants to catch dead in Grand Hyatt Hotel, the same hotel where the former Mayor Barry was caught for doing the crack?

Again, the RAD Board and the CMRA Committee is obviously divorcing themselves from reality -- it is not about me, when I thought it was bit odd, I asked around for their opinions -- most echoed the same sentiments but were afraid to question this to the committee because they knew they would be defensive with unruly comments. It is about how many perceived the RAD like that. Too fucking bad.

September 11

Many of you will never forget the infamy on that particular date -- especially with 9/11/01 -- but what about September 11, 1857?

There was another religious fundamentalists that attacked Americans and killed 120 people including women and children. Where did it happen? Mountain Meadows in the southwestern part of Utah. Killed by whom? Christian fundamentalists whom many of us referred as the Mormons or the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints.

Brigham Young denied telling the Mormons to kill the Americans who were on their way to California from Arkansas. Brigham Young was very Xenophobic -- why people still clamored for Steve Young, the great grandson of Brigham Young who played for San Francisco 49ers is beyond me. I have a friend in Chicago who claimed that he occasionally fucked Steve Young but I digress!

But there are evidence that implied that Brigham Young's secret police ordained the killing of 120 people on September 11, 1857. The ones who did the killings practically never suffered a day in the prison for many years. The Mormons exonerated the blame on themselves by blaming it on John D. Lee, which the Church of LDS claimed was doing by himself.

Much of the punishment towards the not-so-innocent folks were largely ignored. Brigham Young was never scorned, bashed or bombed.

IN fact, it was no secret that Abraham Lincoln ordered the Union soldiers to put the cannons right across the street from Brigham Young who was ordered to be house arrested during the Civil War -- should if the Mormons decide to revolt against the American Government, Abe only has to say "fire away" -- and boom! Brigham Young would fucking be dead!

I may sound like a bastard when it comes to this but the killing of 120 people who were merely on their way to California was wrong. Nothing was being done -- It is evident that people in Utah were protecting each other from being prosecuted to the full extent of the law. I regarded Brigham Young as one of the worst leaders in the American History -- married countless of women ... it was an act of shame and pardon me ignornace, why is the university named after one of the polygamist shithead?

Folks in Utah must have eat too much mushrooms to receive the imaginative rules from some hocus pocus angel that they can fuck a little girl over there on the corner of D Street and 2nd Avenue!

If you want to know more about what happened to the Mountain Meadows Massacre on September 11, 1857, you can read this -- utterly sad. This was not done by Muslims or Voodoo folks -- it was done by Xian fundamentalists, whom still existed today in Colorado City, Utah.

The Life of William Haines

William Haines
I stumbled upon a webpage about William Haines. What caught my eye was the fact that he was born in Staunton, Virginia. Naturally, when I read his background -- ah, I have a picture of him with Joan Crawford in my photo albums -- that was William Haines!

Upon reading his life story, I was bit perplexed. What he did with his life is strikingly similar with mine! He was born on January 1, 1900 in Staunton, Virginia. He had a boyfriend living in Hopewell, Virginia (apparently, they went to the military school -- there are about 4 or 5 military schools around the Shenandoah Valley).

He was the black-sheep of his family as he ran away to Hopewell and worked at the factory and ran the dance hall. One thing led to the other, William Haines lived in Manhattan and fucked around with well-known folks like Cary Grant and so on.

Later, it was off to Los Angeles which William Haines was the star and was stucked with the contracts under Goldwyn Studios. After he was arrested for having sex with a serviceman in a local bathroom in Los Angeles, Louis Mayer ordered him to get married to keep his image -- William, like me, refused to follow Louis Mayer's orders as he was fired and blacklisted from the Goldwyn Studios for the rest of his life.



William refused to marry because he was already paired with Jimmie Shield, a guy whom William met with one-night stand which translated into 50 years of relationship.

In order to support their lives, Jimmie and William opened their own business with interior design which the Goldwyn Studios attempted to crush, but thanks to William's fag hag, Joan Crawford. Joan made it clear to Louis Mayer not to touch a hair on 'em or she will destroy his industry.

Joan was very protective of William and in the process, she helped William to round up the impressive clients which sustained their businesses for the rest of their lives. Joan, famous for being cynical statements, once said about William and Jimmie's relationship, "The happiest married couple in Hollywood."

That was a huge praise, coming from Joan Crawford. William died on Dec. 26, 1973 -- Jimmie could not handle living alone without William and he committed suicide as well.

Why is it striking similar with me?

I was born in 1973. I went to a deaf school in Staunton. I was raised in Hopewell, Virginia. I lived in Manhattan. Who knew someday, I might end up somewhere else ... but somehow, I know I'll be well-recognized by many across the nation eventually.

Haines with Crawford
William refused to marry for Louis' sake. So would I. William had Joan Crawford, I have Chlms, defBef, Perlis, kaybee, Pack, Carrie and Tabitha to round out the legion of fag hags.

Be afraid, be very afraid.
