Folks, I was going to drop the whole Donald Sterling thing after yesterday’s comments, but this stupid story has taken on a life of its own.
All these people who are protesting comments made by Donald Sterling, and shouting from the rooftops about racism, segregation, bigotry, and a whole host of other mean, nasty, terrible, things, are mostly full of shit!
They’re not interested in equality, or anything like it! They are
showing false indignation about a situation they don’t really give a
damn about!
WHAT DID HE SAY?
That’s right kids, nine out of ten of them aren’t really all that interested in the purely abstract fight against racism and bigotry, but rather, they are jumping on a moral high horse to show the rest of the world how good, progressive and enlightened they are compared to some schmuck like Sterling!
It’s not about somebody trying to right a societal wrong kids, it’s about shouting: “Look at me, ma! Look at what a good person I am!” OR “Ya wouldn’t catch ME being that despicable and nasty!” OR “Look how much better WE are than those assholes!”
AND THAT IS BEING AGAINST RACISM AND BIGOTRY FOR ALL THE WRONG REASONS, BOYS AND GIRLS!

News out of the States that an inmate in the process of being executed did not die of the injected drugs ………………, they didn’t work properly, so the guy died of a heart attack instead!

As if that’s not strange enough, a kid in Toronto got the strings in his hoodie caught on an opening garage door and he was left hanging from the fully open door.
Fortunately someone was driving by and saw the boy………………………., just in
time to cut him down! HE’S IN CRITICAL CONDITION BUT RECOVERING!

That asshole Rush Limburger has started a rumour that the whole
Donald Sterling controversy was a set-up by Magic Johnson and company to
enable him the buy the L.A. Clippers at a discount!

The Dr. Seuss classic “Hop on Pop” still has a place on the
shelves of a library in Toronto despite one patron’s attempt to get the
book banned. CTV News says the angry reader complained that the 1963
children’s book encourages kids to “use violence against their fathers.”
The complaint also asked for an apology to all fathers in the Toronto
area and demanded that the library “pay for damages resulting from the
book.” The Materials Review Committee, however, pointed out that “Hop on
Pop” is humorous, well-loved, and actually tells children not to hop on
pop.—————————————
TAKE IT EASY FOLKS, THE WORLD IS NOT ABOUT TO BE DESTROYED!
Contrary to popular opinion, the most powerful particle accelerator in the world, the Large Hadron Collider, has not yet created any black holes as some have feared, researchers say.
(THAT’S RIGHT KIDS, WE WOULDN’T GET SUCKED INTO NOTHINGNESS LIKE THE PLANET VULCAN DID ON STAR TREK!)
Even if an atom smasher were to create black holes, there is no danger of those dense objects destroying Earth, scientists say.

Black holes get their names from their gravitational fields, which are so fiendishly powerful that nothing can escape, not even light.
Supermassive black holes millions to billions of times the mass of the sun are thought to lurk at the heart of virtually every galaxy. [The Top 10 Ways to Destroy Earth]

NEWFOUNDLAND REPORT
One man’s trash may be another man’s treasure, but a
community leader says the hassle of dealing with rotting blue whales on
Newfoundland’s west coast is a bigger problem than people may realize.
Two blue whale carcasses washed ashore on the coast of Rocky Harbour
and Trout River, both located near Gros Morne National Park.
A sperm whale carcass also washed ashore in the Cape St. George area.
How to solve a problem like a rotting whale?
A scientist with the Department of Fisheries and Oceans said the
communities are responsible for disposing of the whale carcasses, but
they may not have to do the work of getting rid of them after all.
Jack Lawson said a number of institutions have been in touch
with the Departimet of Fisheries and Oceans to express interest in
harvesting the carcasses to display the bones.He added there could be some serious challenges, other than the stink, for trying to get to these smaller communities to harvest the bones.
“It would be a fantastic endeavour [to move the whale], you can imagine. You’ve got 60 or 70 tonnes of flesh that you have to remove from these bones, and then the bones themselves will have to be wrapped in something to stop them from, if you will, tripping and leaking on the highway,” he said.
“I can imagine it would be quite a challenge to get the large, heavy equipment you’d need to get down at these animals once you’ve taken the flesh off.”
