Pot and Ball Cancer

For the record, I have never smoked pot. Not once, and I can prove it. I don’t have testicular cancer. There’s a study out that shows men who smoke heavy amounts of marijuana are more likely to get “ball” cancer. Personally think this is great news. Think about it, stoners who smoke a lot of pot, get ball cancer, and don’t reproduce. This could save the gene pool, but probably not.

Odds are, the guys who would catch this would be smart people who smoked once or twice in University. Why are Motley Crue still walking around? What about Cheech and Chong? Do they secretly have no balls? I’m sure Tommy Lee does, because I saw that video with Pam (Like you’re not curious).

Personally, I think this is a ploy to get guys to stop smoking pot. For decades, there have been anti drug initiates and none of them have really worked, so some people in a boardroom started to brainstorming and someone came up with, “If you smoke pot, your balls will fall off”. Now I think this is brilliant, except for some small factor. These guys are already stupid. I remember getting into a conversation (ok it was an argument), with my sister when I discovered she was smoking. I remember saying, how bad it was, and her response was, “they just say that”. To which I replied “Why do you think they put the warning on the package? For marketing reasons?” Needless to say, my sister still smokes.

I really don’t think this study is going to have much effect on pot smokers. I’ve heard pot smokers come up with fact after fact about how pot is safe, and about pot in general. My favorite is “if you legalized marijuana, the crime rate would drop X percent”. Well guess what Einstein, if you legalized rape, the crime rate would also drop. Personally, I don’t think legalizing rape is a good idea. As for legalizing Pot…I don’t give a crap anymore either way. I don’t do it, and never will.

I just wonder about one thing about getting “ball cancer” from pot smoking. I thought you were supposed to smoke it through your mouth?

I'm leaving on a jet plane...

Yesterday, I book/paid for my summer trip to Chicago. I'm looking forward to the trip, and the opportunity to meet many online friends from City of Heroes in real life. You'd think that I'd be content with that? Not a chance.

Today, after confirming everything was booked for Chicago, I starting browsing for hotels for London, for my 2010 trip. I'm not sure where exactly where I should stay, because I don't know where Vics, and her bloke live, and I'd like to stay in a hotel close to them, so I can meet them. I've known Vicky for many years and I look forward to meeting her, the bloke, and the new addition to the family. I haven't even taken the current vacation, and I'm thinking of the next.

Well back to the current year's vacation, we're already talking about going to see the GI Joe movie, the is suppose to come out that weekend. I'm also looking forward to checking out downtown and the Skydeck of the Sears Tower, and Medieval Times is definitely part of the plan. I'm really looking forward to exploring the city, maybe see a baseball game, and of course enjoying the Comic Con.

I've been checking out the website of the local Comic Expo in Calgary,(it's in April, and I'm going. I'll blog about it after) and they've been getting some really cool guests, and if a small Comic Con in Calgary, has a lot of cool guests including "Ando" from Heroes, then the convention in Chicago will be amazing.

I'd admit, that a Comic Book Convention is a bit of a geeky vacation, but SO FRIGGIN WHAT!!!. I'f you've never been to a Comic Con you're loosing out, and I don't just mean the hot women in Cosplay outfits. (drool).

I just see the whole thing as whole new experience. I haven't had a real vacation for a long time, so I'm way overdue. I'm also looking forward to buying a lot of crap that my dad would say "why are you wasting your money". All this and more in 181 days. Not that I'm counting the days, hours, minutes or seconds. Well I spent my trip fund on booking the flight and hotel room, so I have 6 months to save up for buying junk, but still...these next 6 months are going to drag!!! I guess I can kill time by agonzing what hotel to stay at in London.

Dance Zombies Dance

I want to get one thing straight. I am not, or ever been a Michael Jackson fan, but the idea of a Thriller musical sounds really cool. A musical with Zombies? Where do I get my tickets?

Everyone loves the Thriller music video, and if you say you’re not, I DON’T BELIEVE YOU. It’s such a cool music video for it’s time, and it holds up still today. Even the song is a lot better than the Christina/Britney/Justin crap that is being released today. Sure it’s from an era when MTV actually aired music videos, there were no such things as reality TV, and Michael was still black, but dammit, everyone loved Thriller.

Let’s look back. We’ve had musicals about cats, people can't pay their rent, and a Monty Python movie, why not Thriller? I’m not big on musicals in general. I’ve never watch The Sound of Music. I hated Grease. It will be a cold day in hell before I see Mama Mia, but dammit, I’ll go see Thriller the musical. I’m all for dancing zombies. Well except for the Indian version of Thriller, then again, I still have nightmares of the Indian Superman as well, but I digress. I’m all for a musical with zombies, and a werewolf. I just hope we don’t have to put up with a lot of screaming from the female victim, like in the music video,

It's sad when Larry Flint become the voice of sanity.

We've all heard about how banks, the big automakers, and even myself have been asking for a bailout. Now this request is a little far. The porn industry, lead by Larry Flint is looking for a 5 billion dollar bailout.

It's sad that the porn industry is suffering hard economic time. Companies like Hustler are now facing stiff competition from amateur porn websites, and illegal downloading. It's so bad that the performers are loosing their shirts, never mind being able to afford a new boob jobs.

If people haven't figured it out yet. Larry Flint is joking, and trying to make a statement about all these bailouts. I'm pretty sure that he's against all of the bailout. How he's against the idea of free money is given to the banks, who end up spending it on bonuses for executives, and not using it to give out loans like THEIR SUPPOSE TO. Honestly, I'm getting tired of blogging about this topic, but it seems that every time I try to blog about something, it end up talking about the damn bailout.

What really pisses me off is that the people who "broke the rules" didn't get in trouble. In fact, they're still getting their bonuses. Grrrr

I just think it's sad when Larry Flint has the more high ground in this case.

Yes I changed things again.

Yes I changed things yet again, but I decided that I wasn't happy when issues with the template emerged when I put up the Prop 8: The Musical video. Anyway that's all fixed now, and the pictures on the blog represent how friggin cold it is out there. It's so cold, that if I were to take a pee outside, yellow icicles would hit the ground.

I did consider changing the scene into a tropical paradise, and renaming the blog "Escape from the Great White North", but I decided against it. The big issue would be the palm trees would keep calling me and distract me from my work (and if I were to win the lottery, I'd be there in a second.

January is usually a very cold month here, and this year is no exception. It's sp cold that my "boys" are snuggled again my heart. You see, when the "boys" are cold, they hug a man's body, and when it's warm, they tend to be "more free". Yes I just blogged about testicles.

So it's a new year and I'm hoping to...yeah yeah, we've heard it all before. I just need to prove it, but blogging about something more interesting than my testicles.

Well time is short, so here's to 2009, and hoping that I can breath some life back into my blog.
