Random Stuff

Mild cases of schizophrenia can be amusing. Don’t get me wrong, schizophrenics that kill people are not funny. That’s the bad kind of schizophrenia. The good kind of schizophrenia is the mild kind that keeps you interested for the 25 minute subway ride home. Personally, I think that a guy having an in-depth conversation sprinkled liberally with spontaneous outbursts of reggae… with no one, is pretty funny.

(I can see how the above paragraph could be misunderstood to imply that a temporary bout of schizophrenia might be fun on the subway home. It definitely would be.)

I really do love the fact that the people who win the Nobel Peace Prize get the recognition they deserve. That being said, why is Cindy Sheehan anywhere near the discussion of the running? First the Rhodes Scholar and now the Nobel Prize? Why not give TO the Newbery Medal? Better yet, give the Oscar for best documentary to whatever hippie dreamed up “Loose Change”.

(Check out the list of Newbery Awards… even if you “hate reading” you will recognize a few. In summary, Bridge to Terabithia sucked and The Giver was amazing)

Apparently Chris Wallace is a card carrying democrat. (I’m tempted to make some comment about how this should have been expected considering how badly Clinton bitched him out but that would be wrong.) The part that made me smile was his original refusal to admit his party affiliation. Dave Chappelle called this. (It's 2:30 in but the whole thing is funny.)

I’m tempted to say only the French would do this but I can see it happening here. How can it be illegal to deny a historical event? So if solid proof exists for something it is illegal to deny its existence? Can I propose a law in this country against denying that the Raiders are the worst team in football? People who deny genocides should be ridiculed or ignored… not prosecuted.

Finally… only in New Jersey. Quick summary of the story: this lady had sex with her high school student, had a son with him, then married him upon his graduation, divorced him, then started an affair with her son’s high school friend… and she still kept her job.
