Right Now

First thing. I enjoyed my weekend even though I never posted but I decided to give myself some time away but I'm back.

It seems that there are a bunch of little "quizzes" floating around the blogosphere and I've done a couple of them myself, from my music tastes to stuff of a more intimate nature (That means SEX! ! ! ). Anyway, I was listening to the radio and that Van Hagger song "Right Now" came on(It's not Van Hallen unless David Lee Roth is singing) and I came up with an idea. What is going on Right Now? So here's my idea. I encourage my readers (actually I'm begging) to post 5 things that are occurring "Right Now" in their lives on their blog (Feel free to cut and paste but really! ! ! ).

RIGHT NOW

Right Now, I'm hoping that someone will call me soon for a job interview so I can quit the shitty job I have now.

Right Now, I wish I would wave my hands in the air, say "Abracadabra" and my apartment would me nice and clean.

Right Now, I'm spending too much time playing Grand Theft Auto and I need to get out more.

Right Now, I'm disgusted with the price of dress shirts, $50 plus for a damn shirt that I'll only wear to job interviews and "formal" occasions. Give me a break.

Right Now, I just realized that I didn't watch the Oscar's last night and to be honest. I really don't give a crap.


Well this is my first attempt to…basically create a chain letter now that I think about it. Well I look forward to seeing if it goes anywhere. Ok I'm no Michele (the Michele sent me thing is the best idea I've ever seen), but who knows.

So Right Now, I'm hoping that this doesn't BOMB! ! ! .

Captain Canuck!!! Now what the hell am I talking about ?

Earlier this week I mentioned that I was Captain Canuck and needless to say, no one knew what the heck I was talking about so its time to explain that little known Canadian superhero.

Captain Canuck was originally published in the late 70's and early 80's in a monthly comic book as well as a daily comic strip in Canadian newspapers. He was our home grown superhero. Made in Canada for Canadians. I remember him from old issues in comic bins in used comic stores and I thought wow, who knew? Well apparently a lot of people did. There's even a set of Canadian stamps that were issued of Canadian created superheroes ( I know, I have it somewhere but I'm not looking for it).

I'm not going to go into all the history of the guy because this would be something for my Geek blog, and while I am I geek. I try to hide it, by not talking about my Geek core and wearing contact lenses but let's just say that he's come and gone over the years and has changed over the years.

So for more information on Captain Canuck, do a Google search because I'm not a comic book fanboy geek in disguise, nope nope nope.

I'm annoyed again. I'll watch whatever I want, thank you.

I’m flipping through yesterday’s newspaper and I end up reading something about a ‘so-called’ Christian Family organization and how they are condemning Shriek 2 for blaa blaa blaa. Personally I don’t care what these closed minded jackasses have to say. All I know is that I don’t want to hear them anymore because we seem to hear to much from them already and its all about their so called morals and how they are right and everyone else is wrong. BULLTSHIT.

I think it was the Simpsons episode that triggered this all over again, but then again, these people have been getting too much attention since the ‘boob’ incident at the Superbowl, last year. Now listen here, right wing wackos, “I’M SICK AND TIRED ABOUT HOW YOU FEEL YOU HAVE THE RIGHT TO DECIDED WHAT THE HECK I CAN WATCH. CONTROL THE TV IN YOUR HOME NOT MINE!!!”. As for the Simposns, I thought it was really funny when Marge confronted Rev. Lovejoy about where exactly did it said in the Bible that it was wrong for homosexuals to marry. How the rev. started ringing his bell and claiming that he didn’t hear Marge’s questions. To be fair, the episode did make fun of both sides so it wasn’t actually a pro or con stance. Oh and Selma being gay? Not a big stretch.

Anyway this reminds me of things that have cropped up over the tears like the Tinky Winky incident and the Bert and Ernie issue (Teletubbies seem to be asexual and Bert and Ernie were in separate beds). It even goes back to the nutjobs listening to rock records backwards listening for secret messages from the devil.

Like it or not, things change and that includes morality. Don’t believe me then, what about how there use to be slavery in the U.S. and even after that there was (and is) still racism going on down there and all over the world still. (A few days ago I had some cab driver start talking about “the Jews”, I just shut up right there because I thought he was an ass). Another example … the rule of thumb. Want to know it what that really is? It from old common law stating that you were not allowed to beat your wife with a branch thicker than your thumb (meaning that you could beat your wife but not too much). Last time I checked, that wasn’t acceptable today.

Personally if they were to think about the whole gay marriage issue, they should be encouraging it. After all, everyone knows that the sex stops soon after people get married so no more immoral gay sex.

Oh and one more thing about the “right wing wackoes” I use to consider myself right wing about many issues but today. I swear someone has moved the line and suddenly, I’m a moderate now, so don’t start calling me some left wing tree hugging hippie because I can’t stand them either. Basically I’m an individual, who develops his own opinions by learning about all sides of an issue and not basing my opinion on what someone said or didn’t say.
