When I find something funny in the political arena, I let people know about it no matter which side it falls on. I can't vouch for the intelligence of the verbal content of this blog, but take a look a few inches down the left side. You'll probably find it funny, amusing, amusing and scary, amusing and tragic, or some variation of those depending on your political views. I think we can all benefit by lightening up a little. I liked what John Lennon said about lightening up [ok, maybe there was more to it] in Revolution - everybody sing now -

"Cause if you go carryin' pictures of Chairman Mao, you ain't gonna make it with anyone anyhow."

Thanks to the blogger who had a link to this article on your site. Here's the first link to intelligent comments from wherever on the political dartboard.


Can't think of anything funny to say, but hey, it's the first post of a new blog!



Through google I found the URL of the blog where I found this link. This was not readily available through BlogExplosion. I guess I have blogmarked a lot of blogs there...I have decided that registered users may comment, so no anonymous idiocy. My apologies to any fans or creators of anonymous idiocy. [Future or current punk rockers, you may use Anonymous Idiocy as the name of your band if you give me credit for the name in all your liner notes, websites, etc...and if you give $8 to a positive Canadian charity. Clearly, there is a lot more value to that name, but we're having a sale today.]

Almost finally, I just peeked at William's blog. I'm giving him credit for finding the link to the Winnepeg Free Press article. I may or may not approve of his views and that will be the case forever with this blog if I'm still running the show.

Finally, take a look at the shameless plug for one of my newest blogs:
LOSE YOUR CYNICISM NOW! ASK ME HOW!
