I have been challenged to be more positive, and more original.
Until that happens, here is something that might fulfill one of the those two requests.

My Sad Little Life
I have been tagged...or is it poked...or nudged by Kevin over at The Woodshed. I am supposed to list all the paying jobs I have had in my sad little life. Kevin's list is ridiculous. The guy has done everything. So I just can't wait to list my weak C.V. and make clear the secret of my unsuccess.
Maintenance and reception desk work at a tennis club
Assistant teaching pro at that club
Tennis instructor at the Olympia Sports Camp
Head teaching pro at the aforementioned club
Assistant teaching pro at another club
Doorman at some MILF-filled fern-barn
Doorman at The Elbow Room Tavern, UWO
Supervisor at that same bar
Guy who stood in the parking lot moving traffic cones, Whistler Mountain
Lift operator, Whistler Mountain
Cable puller, computer lugger for a library automation company
Cataloguer (turning paper records into computer records) and office manager at another company that provides
library technical services
And that is it.
Now I get to tag others. I choose KD, Sonny, Herb, and Crazy Legs. Herb and Crazy are allowed to be vague in order to protect their anonymity.

That Was Quick
Here we are just minutes into the new year, and already the polls have closed on the stupidest comment of 2009. Commenting on her own comically brain-dead post about how being a christianist makes you a better person, SUZANNE (YES, SHE WRITES HER NAME IN CAPS!) writes:
In all of human history, there has been no force more positive for humanity than Christianity.
I might have been nicer to her, but just this afternoon, while sharing nibbles and wine with KD and his charming wife (could they be nicer?), he commented on how he thought having children had softened me. How I had lost my angry edge. How he missed the agressive tone. And I had to agree. Sometimes you don't know you suck until someone tells you.
A tip of the stevedore to the Canadian Cynic for pointing out this christianist pomposity. I just can't read those blogs.

If God Had A Voice, He'd Tell You To Fuck Off
It's not about whether or not you support the right to choose to have an abortion, or to have that right made illegal.
It is about whether or not you are a lying asshole.
Deuteronomy 5:6-5:20 Neither shall you bear false witness against your neighbour.
Lying, fucking, assholes.

The New Free Press -- With 14% Less!
Hooray for the new London Free Press Weekend Edition. Fourteen percent less paper which I am sure will be reflected in my bill.
The new Free Press Weekend Edition, with an entire section devoted to something that doesn't exist--spirituality. Makes perfect sense.
The new Free Press Weekend Edition, with an editorial page featuring Michael Coren and yet another fact-free diatribe about liberal beliefs hidden behind free-speech pissing and moaning.
The new Free Press Weekend Edition, with another fact-free, anti-arab, anti-brown people, pro-Bush diatribe by Salim Mansur.
The new Free Press Weekend Edition, with a pointless rant by Herman Gooden; wherein he displays his complete and utter lack of knowledge on parliamentary procedure. Way to be timely Herman. I know some of you fellows know and like him, but rules are rules, facts are facts, and maybe, sometimes, you should shut the fuck up when your feelings are hurt by the nasty opposition. Reference Stephen Harper, 2004, before you get in a lather.
