Dubya vs. the Daleks

Tuesday, June 28th, 2005

There was a war raging in my living room tonight… the war between the Commonwealth and the United States. And, do you know who won? It was the Commonwealth of course!

As 8pm rolled along I started flicking channels. After noticing that Bush’s face was plastered all over every single American network I found I had no choice but to watch the Emperor’s speech or watch Canadian/British television. After watching about ten minutes of verbal diarrhea puke from his fundie mouth, I gave up and gave in to my desire to watch Doctor Who. I was quite pleasantly rewarded for my loyalty.

The season finale of Doctor Who was awesome… the pros of the show being the army of Daleks being deployed by the mothership, Rose being possessed by the Tardis itself and the doctor kissing Rose to remove the Tardis from her body. Unfortunately, I was disappointed at a couple of points by the use of 20th centure bullets 200,000 years in Earth’s future… I mean, what do the writers think- that we won’t develop our weapons after two hundred THOUSAND years!??

Regardless of this silly flaw, the episode was truly amazing. I am truly sad that Christopher Ecclestone will not be continuing as the doctor next season… he really was a treat. In his place, will be a younger prettier boy named David Tennant.

Alba go bragh

Ms. Alba… I kneel before thee…

“Hollywood siren Jessica Alba had to repay director Robert Rodriguez’s decision to cast her in smash hit movie SIN CITY by choreographing her own sexy dance routine.

The Honey actress was so desperate to play the part of stripper Nancy Callahan, she convinced Rodriguez to let her transform herself from a dark Latina to the naive blonde - but the film-maker made her prove her acting ability.

Rodriguez left Alba to create her own sexy lasso dance all on her own - and she happily accepted the challenge.

The 24-year-old says, “He just said to me, ‘Did you ever see Salma Hayek do a snake dance in my film From Dusk Til Dawn?’ I told him I did, and it was the sexiest scene I’ve ever seen.

“He said, ‘Salma did not need a choreographer for that - and neither do you.’ So I was left to rehearse myself, stripped down to my underwear, in front of the full-length mirror in my hotel room.

“I thought, ‘You asked for this role: now show that you can do it.’”

I’m impressed… usually these girls just so what the choreographer tells them to, but in this case Alba actually DIYed!

I remember a time when I was supposed to be choreographing my own synchronized swimming routine, but was slacking off instead. When my coach returned to see how I was doing, I made the whole thing up on the spot in order to try and save myself the shame and embarrassment of not coming up with anything. Well, my coach LOVED the moves and they went on to become quite well-known sexy moves… I even won a gold medal in the regional championships.

I haven’t been to strip classes in a couple of weeks and I’m certainly having withdrawal, but I’m glad to say that the classes start up again next week. It would be awesome to learn the lasso dance from Sin City, but I think I’ll have to figure that one out on my own… Note to Zod, we must rent or buy Sin City.

Another activity on my agenda is to learn all the sexiest floorshow dances from the Rocky Horror Picture Show… and for all of you who think I mean the Time Warp, I’m afraid you’re wrong. The floorshow is the show that Dr. Frank N. Furter choreographs with Columbia, Rocky, Brad and Janet at the end of the film. If I’m going to attend the annual Rocky Horror Picture Show gala this year and dress like Janet (or, rather, UNdress like Janet!), I’m going to need to know how to do the floorshow dance correctly! Lucky for me, my buddy Saddlewood lent me the DVD and my loving Zod is away in California… time to practice. Hmm, I think I’m free tomorrow night…

ZOD NO!!!

Britney Spears in talks to pose naked in Vanity Fair… Demi-style.

< bruno > Ich don’t think so! < /bruno >

God… when I read this I wanted to fall down to my knees and quote Planet of the Apes. I really can’t take much more from Britney Spears… I’d rather put salt in my eyes than watch her continuously follow trends to maintain her popularity.

As Zod says… “GARA”

Revenge of the Gang-bang

Monday, June 27th, 2005

I tried to compose a commentary on an article on the Pakistani woman who was gang-raped on the orders of a traditional village Council in 2002, but I just can’t seem to find the words.

I remember hearing about the story a couple of years ago, but the story is back in the news today after the ban was lifted that now allows Ms. Mai to travel again after a fear that she would travel to the United States to raise awareness on her case.

The men involved certainly didn’t get punished enough… they should have all been individually gang-raped (by other men), beaten to a pulp and their penises chopped off. That is justice. Unfortunately, 13 out of 14 of the original accused were let off with nothing while the last man got a life sentence. Ridiculous.
