    December event cancellation

    Thursday, December 4, 2008, 05:24 PM EST [General]

    Sorry, sassy sisters. The December 13 event is canceled due to low response. I will get something on the calendar for January, once the holiday dust settles. If anyone wants a get-together, please contact Tara, owner of the Indianapolis North Quad group, as she's got one or two events in play for December!!! Best to confirm the latest details with her directly, though. Best of all throughout the season, and I look forward to starting 2009 as one of the sassiest years ever!!!!!!!

    Kanye West Interning at Louis Vuitton!

    Thursday, December 4, 2008, 05:19 PM EST [General]

     December 04, 2008. Kanye West is looking to be a fashion intern at Louis Vuitton. We expect that it will be the shortest internship in Louis Vuitton's history

    Here's how the NY Times is reporting it:

    In the hope of better understanding the design process, Mr. West has announced that he wants to take time off from his music career and intern at a fashion house. Preferably, Louis Vuitton or Raf Simons.
    "I was blown away from the planet when he told me," said Mr. Simons, by phone from Antwerp, Belgium. "I know he's very serious about this - I don't take it as a joke - but how can I imagine him being my intern? It's a very extreme situation."


    Here's how we expect day 1 of the internship to go:

    Designer: Mr. West can you get a needle and thread
    Kanye: Why I gotta get the needle and thread ... give an intern a chance, I'm trying hard man, I have the ... number one record, man
    Designer: You're fired

    Under the Greenwood Christmas/Eid Tree

    Thursday, December 4, 2008, 10:18 PM GMT [Politics]

    Another 'Christmas-is-Banned-even-though-it's-not' story from the Daily Mail. Don't look so surprised. Yet another school is forced to issue a statement refuting the basis of the original article. Not that it'll be much use; it will pass into the annals of myth-as-fact.

    The DM headline is Primary School Cancels Nativity Because It Interferes With Muslim Festival of Eid.

    As Mail readers need a bit more coaxing, there's even a lovely picture of a traditional nativity scene. So, what's the score?

    • A primary school infuriated parents after cancelling the traditional Christmas nativity play to make way for the Muslim festival of Eid.

    Traditional........nativity...............Christmas...............Muslim.................cue frothing readership.

    • Is this the thin end of the wedge ? They will be banning all Christian activities next, just wat and see.
      This is Britain ( no longer Great ), BUT still our country.

    • We live in a christian society, why have we yet again had to bow down to the minority and suspend the Nativity until after the CHRISTMAS PERIOD, what is the point in that. The political correctness in this country has now gone way too far and something should be done about it

      - Sam McCormick, Denton, Manchester,

    Now, it's tempting to be charitable to these people. After all, they're only commenting on what they have read. But, what exactly have they been given? Aside from the headline and opening sentence, where is the evidence?

    • In a letter, sent by the staff at Greenwood Junior School, mothers and fathers were told: 'It is with much regret that we have had to cancel this year's Christmas performances.

    So, it must be a nativity performance then? With Christian connotations? Three Wise Men, donkey, wobbly scenery, angels, shepherds washing their socks etc?

    • Why do we have this sort of thing repeated year after year? Wouldn't it be much easier for all concerned to abandon our long-held traditions and hand over the country to whoever wants it. That's obviously what's going to happen eventually anyway so why don't we just get on with it? Then we won't have this silly Christmas thing interfering with other, apparently more important, beliefs.

    Let's be Frank. No, let's not. I agree that we shouldn't have this repeated every year, but it will be whilst this despicable excuse of a newspaper gets away with twisting the truth to lie to its readers. Frank then goes into a sulk and sounds like a child that's just been told he is to be a cloud in the nativity whilst his nemesis is to play Joseph. Sound familiar, Frank?

    Of course, the truth, as Mulder and Scully would say, is out there. Oh yes it is!

    • A school has had to defend itself against claims that it rescheduled its Christmas show to make way for Eid.

      Greenwood Junior School, in Nottingham, told pupils' families that the pantomime would be held in January because of a "full calendar of events" this month.

      It said the move was in keeping with the tradition of pantos in the New Year.

    We see now that the Christmas performance was in fact that well-known religious extravaganza, Cinderella. Unlike this panto, Chris Johnson's scoop is all balls!

    Chris must be so proud. So many Mailites queuing up to agree how terrible this decision is, suckered in by his lies. I hope your family google you Chris and see this blog showing what a worthless journo you are.

    Even The Daily Express - although still having a dig at Muslims for the cancellation- managed to get the Cinderella part right.

    • A SCHOOL’S traditional Christmas pantomime was scrapped to make way for the Muslim festival of Eid, it emerged yesterday.

    There does seem to have been a slight administrative error in that it might have been expected for a multi-faith school like this one to know the dates of the Eid festival (which varies a bit like Easter) but we can all have hindsight. The school also seem to suggest that it was not a concrete date anyhow.

    The worrying aspect is that the school has been forced onto the back foot and needed to issue a second letter. From the Press Association:

    • In a statement, the school said it planned to stage Cinderella on January 28 and 29.

      It said: "The date of the pantomime was only set recently, once we were confident that pupils and staff would be fully prepared.

      "Because of this, and the full calendar of events happening in the lead-up to Christmas, we were unable to fit it into the schedule.

      "In order to avoid any disappointment, a letter was sent out to parents advising that a performance would not take place in December."

      The "full calendar" comprised a range of events, including a Christmas carol concert and Eid celebrations, a Nottingham City Council spokeswoman said.

    So, here we go again. The Mail has not issued an update to this to clarify matters because that would have involved a grovelling admission of fault.

    The Mail also knew about the second letter:

    • Yesterday, a statement issued by the school said: 'We would like to apologise for any confusion caused as a result of [the original] letter we sent out and would like to reassure parents and the community that Christmas has not been cancelled at Greenwood Junior School.

    The Mail knows quite well that for all its readership's mocking of education standards, its army of admirers tend to read bold type only. This makes this article doubly deceitful.

    As I mentioned in my criticism of The Liverpool Echo over the Santa story, I would have thought it appropriate to contact the subject at the centre of the story before letting rip. That would have ruined the headline, of course. The Mail could still have had a thinly-veiled attack on Muslims like The Express, but it wouldn't have enabled them to imply the banning of not only a seasonal tradition but a Christian one at that.

    I hope the Governors and Head of Greenwood Junior School make an official complaint to the Press Complaints Commission. Whilst not much will happen, it's important that such sham journalism designed to create intolerance as much as the BNP, is officially recognised.

    Merry Xmas and Eid Mubarak. I hope the children enjoy all the festivities in December and January.

    UPDATE:

    I should have predicted that the odious BNP would make something of this. They refer to the story and chillingly ask:

    • Does your child attend ‘The School that Cancelled Christmas?’ Did you receive the Scrooge letter? Please contact the BNP National Enquiry Line and we will do everything we can to help you fight for your children’s British culture and heritage.

    The Youth BNP site also asks people to contact the school and provides names, address and telephone and fax number (admittedly in the public domain). It says,

    • Please be polite, and ask why the school discriminates against indigenous British people. We would also urge local parents to put on their own Nativity play, or attend one nearby

    As I said before Chris Johnson and the other vile journos must be very proud. On the one hand writing for papers that publicly distance themselves from the BNP; with the other hand reaching out and providing alms.

    When the school receives an avalanche of protests from fascist morons, I hope you can all sleep at night!

    Soldiers' shoutouts from the Middle East

    Thursday, December 4, 2008, 05:16 PM EST [General]

    During Day 3 of Tribute to the Troops, Michael Cole had the opportunity to talk to many servicemen about their time in Iraq and the WWE's visit.

    Here are some of their thoughts in their own words:

    Staff Sgt. Stephen Sandoval, US Army
    Colorado Springs, Co.

    I have been in Iraq for 12 months on this, my third tour of this country. I am a mechanic and a scout. I am in charge of vehicle maintenance. I am really excited to be a part of the Tribute to the Troops show, and even more excited to be a part of the set-up of the arena.

    I am just glad to have the opportunity to come out here and show my support for WWE and the Superstars who have given up their time to come here. It is so important the soldiers are entertained, and I just want to thank WWE for doing this.

    It’s a bit different then I expected, the stage, the ring, the ringside area is much different than I imagined. I am learning a ton.

    I have a wife and four kids at home. My wife is the true hero; she is a strong woman dealing with everything at home while I am over here. I am just asking her to hang on a little bit longer, I will be home soon.

    Seaman Gavin Riley, US Navy
    Rockaway Queens, N.Y.

    I am one of the few from the Navy here, and I believe the only Navy man helping with the set-up of the WWE arena for the Tribute to the Troops show. Volunteering to help the show gives me a chance to work with my hands out here. My main job is personnel; I just provide support for those on the front line. The Navy is here to make their jobs easier, taking care of paperwork and the like.

    I am a huge part of your WWE Universe! This is so much different than I was expecting. This is so much more than I expected. At the end of the day when my family records this show and we watch it when I get home I can tell them “Hey I built that ring, hey I built that stage!” It’s wonderful. 

    I have a wife, my parents and two brothers supporting me back home.  This is my first deployment and it’s been so tough being away from home. My wife and I are coming up on our one-year wedding anniversary, yet we were together only about a month before I shipped out. It is incredibly tough, but she is incredibly supportive. I get to go home just after the first of the year so I am excited.

    I just want to tell my wife I love you! I want to tell the rest of my family I love you and I miss you. And I want to thank everyone at WWE who are here and at home, thanks! This is incredible.

    Sgt. Michael Stanke, US Army
    Wisconsin. (Stationed in Fort Hood, Texas)

    This is my second deployment in Iraq. Over past few years I have spent 27 months in Iraq and only 19 months in the states. I have been on this tour for a little more than a year now, and still have about four months left. My daily job is I am in charge of all personnel in my unit, more than 400 people. I handle everything from pay to redeployment issues. 

    I volunteered for this WWE detail because it is a once in a lifetime opportunity. I watch WWE all the time here in Iraq! I love it; I have been a WWE fan for my whole life! The ring set-up was the most interesting thing I have done. We got a behind-the-scenes view of how everything is set-up and built from the ground up. It has been so cool being so interactive with the workers, the camera crew, the directors, everyone.

    I respect WWE and all it does to support us out here. They do an incredible job and I wanted to help WWE as a way of saying thanks! 

    John Cena is my favorite WWE Superstar. He seems to embody everything the Armed Forces are about. He respects all his fans and respects the troops. He wears his dog tags out to every show and he always does the salute, and is one of the only people I have seen who actually does the salute correctly. His whole mentality, toughness, work ethic, the whole package! I also respect the fact he played college football.

    I want to tell my mom and dad and my family that I miss them and I wish I could be home for Christmas. It’s been a long time since I could spend the holidays in the states. 

    I want to send a special shout-out to my friend James Richardson from Texas, a prior serviceman. He was injured over here on his last tour! Just wanted to say we are thinking about you.

    Spc. Richard Litz, US Army
    Virginia

    On a daily basis I resupply more than 800 soldiers with food, water, MREs, and stuff of that nature. I have been in Iraq for a bit over a year and I hope to head home in February.
     
    I volunteered to help WWE during its tour here because I have been a lifelong fan! But this is so much more than I expected. I figured I would just be out here escorting people around, I didn’t realize I would be actually setting up this whole arena! This is an experience of a lifetime and now I get to go home and tell my family and friends “Hey guess what I got to do!”

    I can’t believe I am actually here doing this! Every time WWE has come here I have missed them, but this time I get to be a part of it and will be right there in the front row!

    I thought the actual wrestling ring was going to be more bouncy, with springs everywhere, almost like a trampoline.  But once I actually got in there I was amazed it was nothing like I thought.

    I can’t wait to see Mickie James because she is a Virginia girl and Jeff Hardy. I have been watching Jeff for years and I can’t wait to watch them in action. I also want to thank John Cena for all he has done for the troops. 

    I want to tell my sweetie and my son, I love you and wish I could be with you for Christmas. Also, Austin, I wish you were here to see all this!

    Editor's Note: The preceeding was relayed from e-mail message reports from the WWE's Tribute to the Troops mission. Names of the bases visited have been omitted at the request of the U.S. Army, so as not to divulge WWE's location in Iraq.

    From Lionheart to Y2J

    Thursday, December 4, 2008, 05:12 PM EST [General]

    I just finished reading Chris Jericho's book, A Lion's Tale: Around the world in spandex.  It was a very good read.  I learned a lot about Jericho's time in Mexico, Japan, and his time in ECW and WCW. 

    I love reading these "wrestler" books because it gives you a behind the scenes look into what was going on in the companies.  I remember watching WCW when Jericho was there and wondering WHY THE HELL DON'T THEY PUSH THIS GUY!  If any of you wrestling geeks (like me) out there are wondering what is was like for Y2J before he went to New York you should definitely check this book out. 

    Is anyone else pleased with Jericho's current work?  I think he always makes a great heel.  I'm glad he got a couple more world title reigns too.  The man definately paid his dues. 

     

    Gotta run,

    Into the Unknown - Chapter Seven

    Thursday, December 4, 2008, 10:05 PM GMT [Creative Writing]

     

    Once I had decided to leave, Hack and Millie knew they couldn’t stop me so they tried to delay me instead.

    “Suppose we have a special meal?” Millie said. “I could make all our favourite things and…” I knew she couldn’t call Hack my father any more and she didn’t want to emphasise it. “And we could tell stories. Stories about the Perdus, the flying horse, the talking cat, those kind of things.”

    I enjoyed it. Hack raked his memory for tales of Aloyishus, the cat with the ability to talk his way out of everything and Mirandir, the winged black stallion who visited every six hundred years granting one mortal the opportunity to ride upon his back, and the Perdus, the precious talisman that brought happiness unless it was lost. He almost couldn’t finish the last one.

    Next morning Moroni arrived like a ghost but we were used to him, moving like an animal through the forest even now when he was stooped and old. An hour after daybreak we were ready to go. Saying goodbye to Millie – well it wasn’t easy but we managed.

    We didn’t talk, walking through the woods, even after Hack showed me the spot where he had found me. It had changed a bit in nineteen years. I wondered if he had told me everything but couldn’t bring myself to ask any more. It seemed the kind of thing you didn’t talk about, somehow.

    Travelling through the forest with a couple of woodsmen I noticed that communication isn’t often verbal. Hack and Moroni had a way of talking with their eyes or stopping and looking at a bit of brushwood, some disturbed moss on the trail and you knew they had agreed on what it meant. We came across plenty of wildlife; deer, a bear and, off to one side, three wolves as well as the rabble of smaller animals you get in late spring all ignoring three humans passing through.

    Finally, the trees began to thin out as the sun dipped behind the mountains. I could see the peaks more clearly where the trees thinned out and knew that Hack would leave next morning after we had camped for the night. I nearly decided then to call a halt. What could I find out anyway? I’d never see Hack and Millie again for all I knew and yet, if I didn’t do this, I would always wonder. It would be under my skin like an itch I couldn’t scratch.

    Harrassment from Bob No Balls

    Thursday, December 4, 2008, 01:58 PM PST [General]

    Oh poor Bob No Balls, I ask the guy to leave me alone and he repeatedly sends messages (see messages below), much like a stalker, trying to keep up his message board tough-guy persona. Again, tough-guy, all I did was point out what a giant douche you are for trying to bully people and act like a tough guy on an AM Sports Talk Radio Message Board and you flipped out. I know you like to feel strong (because your weak in real life), and what better way to do that than hiding behind a monitor and a keyboard, but enough is enough d!ckbag. Relax, count to ten, breathe deep. I'm sorry for making you face the reality that this is what you look like:
    Pictured above: Message Board Tough Guy "Bob No Balls"

    Reality sucks for some, especially you, but you have to deal with it sometime. Now can you please leave me alone??? Why don't you go to Sodahead.com??? I'm sure you can be a tough guy over there. And for the record, I don't hate you, I really feel sorry for you and your family...
