Closing Ceremonies
Damn.....the Chinese put on a fantastic show! I only wish I saw the opening ceremonies. doh....
The NBC folks said that China spent $40 billion on the Olympics. That's a lot of moolah....WOW!

USA Hoops
Spain just brought the game to within 2 points in the 4th quarter. Our boys just seem so damn lethargic by not going after the ball. The one true star so far is Dwayne Wade. The cause is probably the referees calling the game really tight. So far, Lebron has 4 fouls and Kobe has 3 fouls. The Spaniards are nailing practically all of their free throws.
A weak attempt by Kobe to steal the ball leads Rudy Fernandez to take the ball to the rim for a monster jam and the foul. Nasty!
103-95 with 4:22 remaining. U.S. is in the penalty. The Spaniards are putting some serious bodies in the paint and their guards have sweet handles too.
I think the refs was the U.S. to lose because Gasol just forearmed Bosh and no foul was called. On the next possession, Kobe nails a 3 and got fouled by Rudy (he fouls out at the same time). Kobe hits the free throw.
Fucking bullshit! Dwayne is tripped going into the lane and no foul is called. Spain hits a 3 coming down. However, Dwayne answers back with a 3 to bring the lead back up to 7 with 2:02 left.
The FIX could be in as the ref called Kobe for his 4th with a pussy body bump. Wide oped 3 by Spain misses and a monster rebound by Lebron. Kobe slashes and makes a runners.
113-105, 58 seconds. Chris Paul to the line with 47.7 seconds left. Makes both. 115-105.
115-107, 26.1 seconds. Two techs on Spain, unsportsmanlike and tech. Kobe shoots both free throw and cans it. Looking good.
I wonder what the line was in Vegas. Probably U.S. laying 15+.
They're celebrating yet but there's still 26.1 seconds. Chris Paul makes 1 of 2 shots for the foul on him. From the other fouls, U.S. gets the ball back.
Chris Paul loses the ball and Spain misses an easy breakaway because the guy goes for a reverse layup. Dwayne gets called for travel with 3.1 seconds left.
U.S. wins gold, 118-107.
Phew.........
But BIG UPS & PROPS to the Spanish team.

Right at it again...
Two lesbians tried to have a child via imsemination at a San Diego County fertility clinic in 2000 but was turned away by doctors because their religious beliefs prevented them from doing so. So this couple filed a lawsuit which the California Supreme Court upheld yesterday. These same doctors claimed that they wouldn't help unmarried couples do the same either.
I can't imagine how these Jesus-folks have such vile, contempt and despise for those different from themselves. Especially when their main man, Christ, was teaching about loving everyone.
While I understand that everyone has their right to refuse service to individuals deemed having the lack of funds to pay or have been unruly in their place of business, how could they just blatantly hate by hiding behind their bible?
Homosexuality does NOT destroy families or marriages. In fact, straight people are often the ones to wreck families or marriages because of their silly beliefs or acts. That is the hypocrisy of being holier-than-thou sexually straight individuals.
For all you selfish straight bible-thumpers, you should pray that almost every guy was gay because the demand for the remaining straight men would go through the roof by women. Furthermore, the sexually-repressed-but-looking-for-an-outlet right-wingers should pray that all women were bisexual so that they could gets their menage-a-trois on.
Stupid fucks.

W's clarity
I couldn't help but laugh this morning when I read this:
President Bush criticized China's record on human rights and religious freedom in a speech he made before going to China for the opening ceremony of the Summer Olympics. "I have spoken clearly, candidly and consistently with China's leaders about our deep concerns over religious freedom and human rights," he said. "And I have met repeatedly with Chinese dissidents and religious believers. The United States believes the people of China deserve the fundamental liberty that is the natural right of all human beings."
'Fundamental liberty' that is the 'natural right'.....what the fuck does that mean? That certainly isn't clear.
'Fundamental liberty' sounds like 'free will'. If that's the case, let the Chinese be. It's their choice of governing and being governed.
'Natural right' is a tough one. To do what? To believe in whatever? So long as it is the cruel and unusually false New Testament and other spiritual nonsense that's constantly promulgated by crackpot evangelicals who spew hate and fear in order to fatten their coffers? So let the Chinese believe in whatever.
Frankly, I'm not sure if there really is either a 'fundamental liberty' or 'natural right' for human beings. We're lucky to exist. We should be thankful for the Mount Everest-sized meteor that killed off the dinosaurs. Surely, that was NOT the work of a mysterious all-knowing and all-present deity.
Then again, the bible-thumpers don't believe in dinosaurs since the Earth is less than 10,000 years old.

The Sun Is Out Today
Like every morning Monday to Friday, I don't want to wake up. But I did. When I got to work, Murphy was warming up already. The dopes in HK did not proceed with presenting my proposal for approval and Netflix did not receive all three discs that I returned Wednesday. Normally, my feathers would be a ruffled a bit. Today, it's different because of a few words written in an email.
I see myself as a provocateur, an encourager or an incorrigible misfit of sorts. Not this morning, for a tiny shiny moment in time, I had inspired someone. WOOT!
Needle please...air needs to get out lest dementia take hold...
Write, screech, snort, jump, spin, record, mix, snarl, whatever...
Thank YOU!
Latest choon that I'm lovin'
and here's an oldie:
Enjoy and have a fantastic weekend!
