Tidbits for Monday the 7th

Instead of NFL Players ...: You get to see two Carolina Panthers cheerleaders doing the job in some bar's bathroom in Tampa. Someone called them "LWOD" -- Lesbian While On Drunk.

Brokeback Mountain For Oscars?: Even Madonna said that the film was shocking and brave. And now the Academy Awards are saying that the film may go all the way to win the Best Picture just to rub in redstaters' faces. I say go for it!

Few Words For Someone: For your information, the New York Times and many big cities newspapers did not lose the readerships due to the inaccuracies that they made -- it is because people has shifted their attention onto the Internet where they can access the media for free. It is not all about you as you wish it to be.

For Banjo: People continues to fail in understanding the issues surrounding the District of Columbia. Unlike many cities, the District cannot expand its boundary line to keep up with the population growth. The city eventually grew so large that the majority of the District is now considered as an urban setting. And the crime rate, of course, is misleading at times. Banjo, get off from the computer and TV and visit the District. Don't rely on your friends for information. It indicated that you're speculating things as it is.

District has its flaws, but guess what? In my ten years of living in the District, not a day has passed that I even got robbed or ambushed. Know why? Because I have common sense to use the means to go out as can be. I don't cower just because the city is so bad. So lame, so coward and so stupid. I even went out to 7-11 at 4 AM with my friends. How terrible is that?! Well, there are always 5 police cars next to 7-11 store most of the times, so there!

Statistics are misleading, m'dear. If you include the population outside of the District with the city itself, the crime rate would plummet just like that. Washington, DC is not the perfect city but it has one of the nation's best Deaf Communities -- way better than yours, Banjo, anyday -- which is why you're always glued on to your TV screen or computer monitor all the time.

A Message from the Provost: Hat tip to Michelley. Thanks, hon!

Subject: Update on Recent Incidents
Date: Mon, 7 Nov 2005 12:05:26 -0500

The purpose of this email is to update you on the University's response to the recent incidents involving student conduct.

GoalPost Incident
Thirty students have been charged by the University with disorderly conduct and destruction of University property. These charges will be handled through the Judicial Affairs Office and sanctions willbe issued to each student found responsible. During the goalpost incident, several false fire alarms were pulled. The
University offered a $300 reward for information leading to the identification of the perpetrators. As a result, two students, and possibly a third, will be charged with pulling a false fire alarm.

At this time, no one has been expelled or suspended. As stated in the Student Handbook, students found responsible for any violation(s) of the student Code of Conduct may receive sanctions ranging from a disciplinary reprimand to expulsion from the University, depending on the severity of the violation(s).

The University continues to aggressively investigate the entire unfortunate incident. More charges are pending the results of our investigation.

Hyatt Regency
We continue to investigate the embarassing events that took place during Gallaudet University's Homecoming on October 22 at the Hyatt Regency. The Student Body Government hosted the event at the hotel. To their credit, they are taking it very seriously and are meeting with hotel representatives to resolve issues. The Student Body Government is also expected to make charges against students through Judicial Affairs for various infractions that occurred that evening.

There is a town hall meeting at 2:00 pm today in the Foster Auditorium to discuss these events. I hope you will attend.

Jane K. Fernandes

Provost
Gallaudet University

Much ado about nothing, really.

To Mary With Love: To deny a child from playing in any sport at her school for a year just cause you can as a mother is ridiculous and childish thing to do. And you know it, darling.

Tanya Is Retard: My sister in law, Tanya, is one massive douchebag. She is control freak -- she forbade my nephew from playing in any sports, extracurricular activities, or even spending a night at his friends' houses -- or even play at the city park! At the age of 9, boys will be boys.

The best part is that when I attempt to make a suggestion to my older brother, he snapped that I am fag and that I should not say anything about Danny because I just want him to be gay. What the fuck? Billy, that is why you're stuck with your wife -- you're purely an idiot to start with. Danny is going to be reclusive, anti-social and will end up like the infamous guys in Jeffrey Dahmer, Eric Harris and Dylan Klebold. I felt sorry for the kid. That kid is not even allowed just to be a boy.

Tanya, you are stupid. Had been, has been and always will be. Your eyes reminded me of a fish that died in my mom's aquarium when I was a kid -- bloated, ugly and ... smelly. That is what you are!

I'm afraid to predict that the way things are going, my nephew may be the world's first redneck who is metrosexual someday!

Cheers,

Gallaudet Volleyball, 112-2 and Cave Spring

Gallaudet Did It Again: After the football team attained its unthinkable goal of going undefeated at 8-0, the Volleyball team cruised throughout the CAC Tournament to win the Championship and an automatic berth to NCAA Tournament, beating Marymount University 3-1. For further information on this game, you can read here.

In Oklahoma: A high school basketball team massacred another team, 112-2. One Coach said that it was one of the embarrassing games that he ever had coached -- in spite that he was the one on the winning side. Interesting, though.

Laurent vs. Cave Spring: I have nothing against Laurent being built in middle of nowhere in South Dakota. A friend of mine, Sonny mentioned about this on his blogsite which I agreed completely. We do not have to do this from scratch -- there is a town that already has resources which we can pick up and build from there.

That town is none other than Cave Spring, Georgia. That town has only 975 residents as of 2000. Roughly 90 out of 975 are Deaf residents. Cave Spring is also the site of Georgia School for the Deaf.

The resources for Deaf people to pick up is already there for anyone to pick up. Georgia School for the Deaf has two campuses, one is closed -- one is open. But the one that is closed is owned by the city of Cave Spring. Suppose if the residents of Laurent come to Cave Spring instead of building from scratch in some bitter cold Midwest, it would be so easy to replace the town with the majority of Deaf residents.

The town has the bank, restaurants, bed and breakfast inns ... all you need to do is to come in and make yourselves home. Improve the school, add few deaf-owned businesses and boom, you have it. that town also is home to the spring that floated from the mountain into the 1.5 acre pool that shaped like the state of Georgia. I swam in that pool. That pool is going to make your penis disappear or your breasts decrease -- so cold.

Yes, I had been to Cave Spring -- in fact, I stayed in that town for 4 days. Time flew so fast when I was there for my close friend's wedding. It is located about an hour and half south from Chattanooga, Tennessee and 2 hours north of Atlanta. Why do we need to build from scratch at Laurent, South Dakota while we can pick this town up just like that?

You Suck, Dana White!

Here is a theory of mine. The Ultimate Fighting Championship was spearheaded into popularity because of Dana White. No, it was not female. It was male with female name. Maybe he was beaten up in elementary and middle schools to a point where he was determined to make something out of this.

Oh, did I mention that Dana White also was a ballet dancer?

Only in America.

Two New Polls










Who Should Pay for $9,000 Bill to Washington Hyatt Regency Hotel?
These damned Freshmen culprits! Use the names that rented the specific rooms and bill them
SBG should assume the responsibility -- after all, they represent the University
The contract between the SBG and Hyatt indicated that the SBG is responsible between 9 PM to 2 AM -- whatever happens after 2 AM, not SBG's problem

What Do You Think of Gallaudet's Mob Mentality?
It is so cool
Please, it is lame
At least, it is not like the suburbs of Paris, France which has endured 8 days of riots!

Stuff To Ponder on Friday Night!

My Allergy Flared Up: Last night on the road, I sensed that my allergies flared up. When I get to a certain place, my allergies exploded like Mount Vesuvius, overwhelming Pompeii. It was not funny thing to deal with. My allergies often flared up during the autumn season, when the climate changed from the summer to the winter, I'd have a long period of unstoppable sneezing.

Straight Guys Do Bareback, Too: Good thing Sundiata Bashir is in the jail. Will you ever see McWeenie talk about this "phenomena"? Unlikely, of course.

*sharpening my knives*: The sounds you heard is correct. It is reserved for certain few. Guys and gals, how do you feel for a guy who consistently cheated on his partner each time his partner went out of town? What is your feeling on this subject? As for me, I do not feel comfortable being friends with this particular guy who consistently cheated on his partner. I reserved the right to discard this person out of my life, I mean ... if he cheats on one, it means he can cheat or lie on me as well. so in other words, I rather to discard him in the trash bin, right? He said that I am being judgemental and that I should butt out. I am not getting involved but I do not have to tolerate his antics toward others! Do I make any sense?

Coach Admits He Is Illiterate: But still coached the team to win the Stanley Cup in 1993. Interesting article.

Guess Who?


Two New Polls: The first poll which I asked whether Rayni Kaika looked like Marilyn Monroe, 49% agreed with me in 113 votes as of now. Look for the newest polls in the next entry.
