Stay Classy Bill

Bill Donohue, President of the American Catholic League, and World Class Asshole. He doesn't like that people are upset by the report that lists the systematic abuses that took place in Irish Orphanages.


Update:
Bill takes on comedian Louis C.K. and fails at reason. Who elects this guy?

Saturday Night in the Oldest City in North America

The thing that I miss most about living in St. John's, was the local music scene. If I had my twenties to live again, I'd be on George Street again tonight.

Friday Night Guitar To Rule Your Face

Steve Vai paints his face silver and reprises a theme from the "Head Cuttin' Duel" scene from the movie, Crossroads. It wasn't a horsie theme in the movie though, it was "making the train talk".. as in, choo-choo jumpin' hobo bluesmen.
Vai played both his, "Jack Butler", and Macchio's, "Lightenin' Boy" parts for the soundtrack, and Ralph faked it pretty good. I still enjoy watching it. Ry Cooder's acoustic guitar work on the soundtrack made the movie enjoyable also.

And he's still as stunned as me arse!

You might have to google that headline if you don't get the reference.

Bill Clinton visits Newfoundland

A former president of the United States spoke to an almost full Mile One Centre in St. John’s this afternoon. Bill Clinton told the crowd he wanted to come to Newfoundland and Labrador as it and Prince Edward Island were the only Canadian provinces he hadn’t visited to date.

Premier Danny Williams made some opening remarks and welcomed Clinton to the province. Former New Brunswick premier Frank McKenna introduced Clinton.

Mile One Stadium holds 7000 people, and ticket prices ranged from $100 to $1000. Not too shabby for an hour's work... rock bands should be jealous. No word on whether or not he was "Screeched In".

When's the next Spider Man movie?

I think that a director could get some good shots of this guy in a Spidey outfit.

Meet Michaelle Jean, the Sarah Palin of Canada

I screeched with laughter at Gawker's take on the Michaelle Jean story. The Governor General of Canada gutting and eating raw seal heart at a celebration in Nunavut, is making news around the world.

Kicking off a weeklong visit to Nunavut on Monday as part of the territory's 10th anniversary celebrations, Jean gutted and ate some fresh seal at a community festival in the central Nunavut community of Rankin Inlet.

The move, to show support for the beleaguered seal hunters, comes as the European Union voted earlier this month to impose a ban on seal products after years of intense lobbying by animal rights groups.

Asked Tuesday whether her actions were a message to Europe, Jean replied, "Take from that what you will."
