One Negative In Melbourne

I was alarmed to learn that the night before the Closing Ceremony, Deaf South Koreans were attacked by hearing men right outside of the hotel after the Deaf folks refused to give the money when the hearing men demanded them to.

The hearing guys retaliated and bashed one elderly Deaf man who was sent to the hospital after sustained a bleeding within his brain. The incident ended up in a brawl between 15 to 20 Deaf guys versus 4 hearing guys.

What the fuck is "bucks" in Australia term? Anyone else? There is a nice editorial by the paper condemning the acts of hearing fools.

But coming from hearing men who prey on Deaf people on almost everything, I ain't surprised about what happened. It is common that hearing men targeted Deaf people because they perceived us to be easy, passive or unassertive. But I congratulate South Koreans for pushing 'em back. Fuck 'em. Stoopid hearies, always find a way to ruin our solidarity.

My Beau, Colin Farrell

I was reading the local gay magazine and it mentioned that Colin Farrell went ahead to act as Alexander the Great basically because he was inspired by his gay brother.

What the fuck? He has a gay brother?

Yum. Damn, the future is bright, at least for us who craved for Colin Farrell's flesh.

On another subject, Richard Hatch was the gay nudist that I cannot stand in the first year of "Survivor" edition. I often rooted against him during the competition. But unfortunately, he won the competition.

But apparently, fortunately for me, I won the competition in the end because the Internal Revenue Service (IRS) busted him for failing to file the $1 million prize and $320,000 payment from Boston radio station.

Richard, you know what goes up always comes down. Now, try to be nude when you are in the prison and honey, don't forget to write a letter.

Hasta la vista!

Gang Signs

Last night, I watched the local news which explored the rapid growth of Mexican gangs, they kept on showing the guys using its symbol signs. Each time, they signed it -- I snickered. Am I the only person that laughed at their attempts to use the signs? They made a fool of themselves, trying to sign something that does not even make a blimp on the universal gestures.

It is like watching Kurzetard trying to talk about the vital issues, really!

You know, I had a lunch date with Susie today. I told her that what really amused me the most about Deaf people in this country is that they had the gall to say that they "do not like the gossips and think we are awful at that, but anyway I heard about this guy named [insert the name] ... he cheated on his girlfriend with a rotweiler dog."

Susie snickered as I said, "I'm like, 'Hello, you just talked about someone else -- that is gossip!'" But I often said nothing but inside my mind, I snickered at the irony itself.

I also mentioned to Susie that one person by the name of Doug Ridloff once remarked to my face that he disliked me because his friends said that I am one of these gossip-mongers. I quickly mentioned to Doug that since he and his friends talked about me, it ain't make him better than me because it still constituted the legitimacy of his gossips. Doug insisted that it was not his point.

Whatever he says, really.

I'm still amused that McCock still talked about me. Thanks for elevating me to a new level. Kurzetard, did your Mom teach you not to make up stories? Especially with your invisible manuscripts? Oops, I kept on forgetting that your Mom isn't there to discipline your behavior any longer.

At least, I'm being honest that I do gossip from time to time -- but again, so do you guys. Deal with it.

Happy gossipin'!

Social, Political, Religious, Economic Tensions

Political Tension: The Iraqi Election may not be the best one the Iraqis have but they will vote. I personally thought it was wrong of Bush to endorse Allawi in the Iraqi elections. It sends a message to the millions of Iraqis that Allawi is his personal puppet. To engage in a true democracy, Bush should shut up and back off. Of course, he won't back off.

Religious Tension: McCock and Kurzetard are incredibly ignorant of religion conflicts that pitted the religions against each other. I do not see McCock and Kurzetard complain about the X-ians trying to adopt 300 Muslim kids out of Tsunami-stricken areas nor trying to rebuild a community with a Christian Church in the center of the village in India -- that is wrong approach. It only will create more tensions.

Yes, I heard about the Jersey City murders that could be considered as Hate Crime. If the reports are correct, then so be it. What the Muslims did were wrong, they had no right to murder the others. But it does NOT mean that all Muslims behave like one. It is like a Deaf person murdered one, then all Deaf are murderers. Don't you get it, McCock and Kurzetard?

Primarily, Muslims and Jews, over the years, are sick of X-ians trying to proselytize them, telling that their way is wrong, theirs are right! By doing that, you rub the salt on their struggles. Stop it. Stop it all. That's why I can't wait for the day where religions are a thing of the past.

Besides this, McCock, what happened in Jersey City is merely a speculation. You chose to use NYPost.com which is a tabloid often running on hearsay and exaggerated information, owned by Murdoch, the Republican who also owned the FOX NEWS. They are not honest but opinionated. I suggest you, McCock, to read this.

Economic Tension: What the fuck? Airbus A380? Why do we need it? The companies complained about low fares, demands for pay raises, high gas prices and low profits and now they got the world's largest passenger jet? Why do we need it in the first place? The reality is that we do not need them. It is pointless.

Social Tension: The Bush Inauguration, ugh. Bush already privatized Pennsylvania Avenue with his donors, supporters and loyalists pre-approved by the inaugural committee. Charged $125 for the viewing seat and $150 to enter one of nine balls. Basically, the whole she-bang inauguration week is filled with wealthy Republicans whose the Bush Administration chose to surround himself with, ignoring the true Americans who could not afford to be part of the festivities.

Am I surprised? No. I was never surprised. Ahh, typical Republican.

Thanks For Everything, Aussies!

You guys rock! I am completely jealous of people who went to Melbourne for 2005 Deaflympics. I hadn't heard a complaint out of Melbourne (which I did from Rome on the first day of the 2-week events! and the pictures indicated that it went very well.

Congratulations, mates!

I finally found the picture I wanted -- yahoo! And a picture of Australians as well!

Bizarre Stuff

I was reading an article on espn.com, Matt Leinart mentioned that he got $950 stipend per month at Southern Cal. $950 just to practice and play football? I remembered a friend of mine who had a wrestling scholarship at a prominent Big 10 school, he said he got a monthly stipend, scholarship for tutition and room & board and in addition to free shoes, uniforms, practice clothes and so on.

That makes me think a little. Our use of SSI is justified, in some ways. That is, for college students. It is much better than to do the dishwashing at some McDonalds, really.

Speaking of Southern Cal, I once visited Southern Cal to check out its film school for graduate study. It is located in a shabby area near Downtown Los Angeles. When I entered the campus, I noticed something striking similar between Gallaudet and Southern Cal. Both has a fence around its campus, to imprison us (or as the administration would say, "to protect us") from the outside. I thought it was interesting, though.

I also scourged some interesting information -- in Melbourne, Australia during the Men's Basketball semi-final game between USA and Australia, USA romped past Australia, 131-78. The large margin was unnecessary, to be honest with you. And Jamal Bradley had 68 points for USA. What are they trying to improve? The walls around the gymnasium? Not only that, all games except for Lithuania were NOT even close, why 50 to 60-points blowouts? Australia is the host, where is the respect to minimize the blowout? Pathetic score and Carl, you can tell that to David Hamilton!

UPDATE!! One basketball loyalist paged me to inform me that Jamal Bradley did not score 68, the scorebook was incorrect. Perhaps, in time, I shall find out what's going on. UPDATE!! A reliable source pinged me: he did indeed score 68. Ah, the drama that is sports!

In addition to new information that I thought was very strange and bizarre but at least, it proved something dramatic.

Read this:

"In the third period, everything seemed to take a turn. The referees called on a Slovakia player traveling the ball, and their team insulted one of the referees. She threw two Slovakian players out of the game for disorderly conduct and one tried to get back into the game but she banned him again. Right after the referee threw the players out, a spectator passed out in the stands and had to be escorted away. Some USA players got slightly injured and Robert Haney bumped heads with a Slovenia player, causing the other player's nose to bleed. The game got held up numerous times because of those incidents, plus countless fouls on top of it."

Definitely odd thing.

Now on other thing, I was browsing through the pictures and I was surprised to see Anbo in one of these pictures! That boy needs to get a life of his own! How can he go to Melbourne?! I heard that he totally drained his parents' finances out to meet his demands to a point where his parents are truly broke. Anbo, get a fucking job and stop living off your parents' incomes, you little irresponsible prick!

What Am I?

ACCORDING TO YOUR ANSWERS,

The political description that
fits you best is...

CENTRIST


CENTRISTS espouse a "middle ground" regarding government control of the economy and personal behavior. Depending on the issue, they sometimes favor government intervention and sometimes support individual freedom of choice. Centrists pride themselves on keeping an open mind, tend to oppose "political extremes," and emphasize what they describe as "practical" solutions to problems.

The RED DOT on the Chart shows where you fit on the political map.



See? I'm not that extreme Liberal but I'll defend Liberals when Conservatives demonized them frequently.
