Aside my pure eggnog, thanksgiving is generally a festive time of year for me. I missed my dose of turkey and cranberries last year as I left for amsterdam berlin prague vienna and brugges- two weeks and half with a friend, just because I told everyone and myself that thanksgivings will come around again next year and I have been participating for last 22 years. But in reality, I lied. I missed eating with my family, gorging until I fall asleep with a stomach stuffed full of whatnots, not too different from a duck being prepared for pate. I imagine my liver tastes good right now, only if I abstain from alcohol completely. I missed the quaint family time so much that when I asked parents what we will have for christmas dinner, they apologetically made excuses why we will just have breakfast with one side of family and a lunch with other. I was disappointed. No turkey, no ham, no green bean casserole, no glorified rice (a family favorite dish), no cranberries, no homely stuffing, no sweet potatoes. None.

Its the turkey day- when everyone come together and cook a mean feast, to get stuffed up to our ears like the poor turkeys slaughtered for this occasion- no I’m not a vegan or anything. I ate my share of turkey today and I will do it again next year. I’m just saying because it was ridiculous in virginia beach today when I couldn’t find a liquor store that was open. What if a drunkard needed his daily dose of depressant and now, because of a holiday that celebrated the fact pilgrims fasted along with indians approx 300 years ago, they cannot get some alcohol. I mean alcohol as in firewater not lame-ass bud light or a light wine. Fuck. My eggnog will be virginal tonight and I was looking forward to deflowering it.

Why Can't I Own a Canadian?

Thu, 15 Nov 2007 12:17:47 -0800

October 2002

Dr. Laura Schlessinger is a radio personality who dispenses advice to people who call in to her radio show. Recently, she said that, as an observant Orthodox Jew, homosexuality is an abomination according to Leviticus 18:22 and cannot be condoned under any circumstance. The following is an open letter to Dr. Laura penned by a east coast resident, which was posted on the Internet. It’s funny, as well as informative:

Dear Dr. Laura:

Thank you for doing so much to educate people regarding God’s Law. I have learned a great deal from your show, and try to share that knowledge with as many people as I can. When someone tries to defend the homosexual lifestyle, for example, I simply remind them that Leviticus 18:22 clearly states it to be an abomination. End of debate. I do need some advice from you, however, regarding some of the other specific laws and how to follow them:

When I burn a bull on the altar as a sacrifice, I know it creates a pleasing odor for the Lord - Lev.1:9. The problem is my neighbors. They claim the odor is not pleasing to them. Should I smite them?

I would like to sell my daughter into slavery, as sanctioned in Exodus 21:7. In this day and age, what do you think would be a fair price for her?

I know that I am allowed no contact with a woman while she is in her period of menstrual uncleanliness - Lev.15:19- 24. The problem is, how do I tell? I have tried asking, but most women take offense.

Lev. 25:44 states that I may indeed possess slaves, both male and female, provided they are purchased from neighboring nations. A friend of mine claims that this applies to Mexicans, but not Canadians. Can you clarify? Why can’t I own Canadians?

I have a neighbor who insists on working on the Sabbath. Exodus 35:2 clearly states he should be put to death. Am I morally obligated to kill him myself?

A friend of mine feels that even though eating shellfish is an abomination - Lev. 11:10, it is a lesser abomination than homosexuality. I don’t agree. Can you settle this?

Lev. 21:20 states that I may not approach the altar of God if I have a defect in my sight. I have to admit that I wear reading glasses. Does my vision have to be 20/20, or is there some wiggle room here?

Most of my male friends get their hair trimmed, including the hair around their temples, even though this is expressly forbidden by Lev. 19:27. How should they die?

I know from Lev. 11:6-8 that touching the skin of a dead pig makes me unclean, but may I still play football if I wear gloves?

My uncle has a farm. He violates Lev. 19:19 by planting two different crops in the same field, as does his wife by wearing garments made of two different kinds of thread (cotton/polyester blend). He also tends to curse and blaspheme a lot. Is it really necessary that we go to all the trouble of getting the whole town together to stone them? - Lev.24:10-16. Couldn’t we just burn them to death at a private family affair like we do with people who sleep with their in-laws? (Lev. 20:14)

I know you have studied these things extensively, so I am confident you can help. Thank you again for reminding us that God’s word is eternal and unchanging.

Your devoted fan,
Jim

ElfQuest:

My favorite graphic novel saga ever. It is NOT a comic book - no ads, no disappointingly short issues, no fluff, no lame ass stories.

It is the best ever. I read my first one when I was around eight years old and have been hooked. Of course, I convinced many of my friends to read it as well, and so far no one has told me it sucked.

My favorite characters are Cutter and Winnowill. They are the polar opposities (well, Rayek is Cutter’s complete opposite) in the light of heroicness and archvillianess. Cutter on one hand is a noble, trustworthy, brave leader of a scant tribe called Wolfriders. Winnowill on a vastly different hand is a temptress in her own right, rippling silky black hair, and even smoother web of deceit. When they clash, it can be felt all around- akin to a 10.0 richter scale quake.

It is always the rich who has the power and the means to control- thus putting the average person in debt and poverty and hopelessness and despair.

In this case, it is more fitting: absolute rich corrupts absolutely.

Why cannot america have a decent system to benefir their citizens who work hard all their lives and be rewarded in the long run, being old and knowing all the medicines will be free and any visits to the doctor office won’t set me back several years.

My only relief was the fact that I am moving to Vancouver, British Columbia, Canada before I even watched the documentary- it means eventually if I want to, I can find a cute Canadian (there are plenty!) to marry and be covered by Canada’s fine health care system.

I’m definitely gonna marry a canadian if it means free health coverage, including doctor visits, emergency hospital stays, free inhalers for my asthma, unlimited birth control pills, dental care, and pretty much everything else you need in life related to living healthy and free of all diseases…
