I think people in general are way too over sensitive. If something is funny I laugh at it, regardless of what race, religion, mental state, or disablility it deals with. If it's funny then it's funny, I'm not going to refrain from laughing because somebody else might be offended that I find it funny. If the joke's on me and it's funny I'll laugh at that too dammit!

so... my cousin gave me tickets to see Calexico at the Sidetrack on June 25th...and I don't know who to take with me... I'm sure no one's heard of them, they're listed as rock/indie rock/country/mariachi/spaghetti western. You can check them out at their website or download (for free) one of their more country-twinged slow songs here. I'm not sure if I'm expecting anyone to be interested, and I know my mom likes them, so I can take her, but if someone else is interested, they're a pretty neat-sounding band. and I like sharing things.

    In slightly different political news, my second cousin is running for the liberals.

    He does look more south asain than those other guys, probably 'cause he's got some native blood in him.

    i hate filing.

    where on earth did Geneva come up with her system? It's horrendous.
    and it's taking me WAY too long to sort it out... like at least until tomorrow if not longer.
    I'm not getting any real work done either.

I think its a French name... or thats what brief searches found. Does this mean the French == South Asian?

    A bizarre article from the Hindustan Times appears to have a strange definition of 'South Asian'. The article hilights the 36 South Asians running for office in the Federal election. They proceed to list the candidates. Here's a brief snippet of candidates from this region:
    • Vinay Dey, NDP, Calgary North, Alberta

    • Tim Uppal, Conservative, Edmonton, Alberta

    • Moe Saeed, Liberal, Edmonton, Alberta

    • James Rajotte, Conservative, Edmonton, Alberta

    • Rahim Jaffer, incumbent, Conservative, Edmonton, Alberta

    I'm sorry, did I miss something? James Rajotte? What?! When did this guy become south asian?

paras, i hope u wont now be swinging a vote rajottes way just for racial solidarity..... btw i read an article in the journal today about william mcbeath, but those fellow titans on this board may remember him as that-fat-faggot-fuck-with-the-girly-voice-who-waitasec-wasnt-he-the-fag-who-was-su-president-when-we-were-in-grade-10... why yes he was.... and now hes dedicated his life towards unseating anne mclellan, acting as communications director for whichever conservative candidate is running against her... it was just one of those "hey i remember that guy" moments.....in another election-related topic how do u feel paras about mr azania aka anti-seminister faust's comments concerning the ever-ongoing struggle between blacks and jews.... i feel bad for the guy now that his entire campaigns been railroaded by a few remarks he made 10 years ago... i dont know about u but it definitely makes me worry about what internet skeletons i may have in my closet... and paras ure the comp guy here, they cant tell if u downloaded midget or animal or midget-animal or midgets with animals porn from kazaa can they?

    I've discovered how to read the text... hilight it with your mouse... and it is pretty terrible. I guess it's a neo-con haven... very militaristic and christian/white supremacist-ish the whole removing the cross from the US symbol being an insult when perhaps keeping the cross is also an insult... it's like the UofA graduation pledge. I was raised Christian and I still have problems making that pledge because it specifically references God, and you can't expect all the students at such a large institution to agree with that, and yet it's a part of the graduation ceremony, and without it, you're not officially convocated. then again, maybe I'm just too 'left' for their conservative beliefs in general...

    about the cartoon... so maybe it's okay for someone like that (and I'm not intending anything by "that") to make fun of a particular condition, but can others who don't have that same condition (whether it be a disability, or a skin colour, or a university degree or whatever) still laugh at it? Where do you draw the line? It's like a white person laughing at jokes about black people even if a black person is making them... when is that ok? is it? it happens all the time
