Yes, there is text, which is no better than the ads on the side.

As for the wheelchair cartoon, this is controversial, but in a different way than you might initially believe. The cartoon in question is this:



This cartoon, and many others along the same theme are drawn by this man:


John Callahan, a quadriplegic cartoonist.

It's a bit like The Adventures of Ali & Ali and the Axes of Evil. If it wasn't humour coming from the group in question, would it be inappropriate? Callahan makes fun of the disabled, a group we specifically avoid making light of. Yet, he is a quadriplegic. Does this make the disabled fair game for his humour?

wait, Paras, is there supposed to be text on that site? it's all black for me.

except for the ads... I can't even imagine people can get away with selling "piss on islam" bumper stickers. this is incredibly shameful and ignorant... but perhaps the whole point of the site... and that wheelchair cartoon is TERRIBLE.

Thanks, Mary, but um Leanna (?) had Jere drop off a copy for me. So Thanks!

hey Alison, I still have Sunday's paper, it's yours if you want it

Alison, I think that was Percy's point. Either that, or he's signing up for a telemarketing service.

Oh, and If you hate America or Israel then YOU are the enemy. (Including little tidbits like this.)

Gomez and LeTigre?? no fair!

and P, aren't telescreens what they had in 1984? Where are you that you have one of those?
Man, I hope there isn't one behind my bulletin board, that'd just destroy things...
mind you, then we could form a chapter of the antisex league, or at least wear the sashes and pretend...

are you trying to make my computer crash, Par? every time I try to click on your link, my browser closes.

Anyway, referring to D-Day, do you still have your Sunday newspaper? does anyone still have their Sunday Edmonton Journal? I'd really like to get a copy of the Sunday Reader section... please please please, if you have it and don't want it, could you pass it on to me?

super.

thanks a bunch. I want to nap now...

You know, look.
