OK

So, assuming this is what the problem was, I have now switched the settings on the comments to allow any users to post. You can now be anonymous is you'd like, but owning up to opinions is always welcome.

Not too much good stuff today, I know I have been inconsistent with my postings, mainly because I hate writing about awful news, and this has been a particularly bad week. However, I have decided that just like when this blog began way back when, it will cover everything.

Starting with...An Elvis impersonator who showed up to his hearing in Nicholasville, Kentucky stinking drunk. The hearing was for being a creepy stalker. Mr. Presley was held in contempt and sentenced to 3 days in jail. This is pretty much the whole story, I just thought it was silly.

You ever notice how when its a short-term kinda thing it is referred to as jail, but when someone goes away for multiple years they go to prison. Kinda like the movie "Let's go to prison" which was hilarious.

The 3rd annual Amsterdam "Stiletto Race" was recently held, in which young women race at top speed in a minimum of 3 1/2 inch heels for a cash prize of $15,000. This is slightly less popular than that annual "Drag Races" held in Dupont Circle in which the racing is somewhat similar, only it is large muscular drag queens running instead of 18-year old girls.

Here is a quote from a Jpost article regarding the UN Security Council's failure to condemn yesterday's terrorist attack at a Jewish seminary in Jersusalem. The resolution to condemnt the attack was blocked by Libya, a non-permanent member, because they wanted to pass the resolution with a clause condemning Israel's operations in Gaza.

"Ambassador Vitaly Churkin of Russia, which currently holds the rotating monthly presidency of the Security Council, expressed his frustration over the fact that UNSC member states could not come to a decision to issue a condemnations for a terror attack and were instead getting bogged down by complexities over the history of the Israeli-Palestinian conflict. "

"What kind of specific horrendous terror attack in the area will it take to make the Council condemn without going through all the history of the region," he said.

Amen brother.

And finally, Minnessota recently passed a ban on smoking in bars except for actors smoking in theatrical productions. In response to this, many bars have now "become" theatres, passing out playbills and encouraging patrons to come dressed up in costume in order to be proclaimed
"actors".
Oh you sill Minnesotans and your crazy antics.

That's it for today. Leave a post if you dare.

Keepin it real from the loop.
