It’s Cocktail Time Again…
Seriously not funny Tom. Calling for the murder of Julian Assange, on our national tax payer supported television network, may not get him fired, but it gets him a Solvent Molotov. Flanagan, a former adviser to Stephen Harper chose a way to slide out from under his comments that is uniquely available to conservatives… he claimed that he was trying to be funny. Conservatives, at their funniest, are about as funny as a toothache, so no matter how poor the attempt at humour, when one of them claims that he was trying to be funny, who can say otherwise? Here is my attempt at humour: put Tom Flanagan behind bars and charge him with incitement to murder. Pretty funny eh?
Big martini ups go to local promoter of events, Dawna Ahola, and Trista Luxton of downtown North Bay’s own Trista’s Trinkets and Boutique. Last night, Dawna put on a rock show at 211 Highland and raised over 500$, plus a shit ton of food for the NFN Food Bank. On the same night, Trista put on a fashion show to raise funds for “Mirror Mirror on the Wall”, a workshop to promote a positive self-image for young women. Cheers to Dawna and Trista.
Why would a coach put a player back on the ice AFTER that player used a racial epithet against a player from the other team. You’d think such a coach would be suspended. You’d be wrong about that, but, if you thought that Greg Walsh, the coach who pulled his whole team off the ice to protest the continued inclusion of the racist player in game would get suspended, then you’d be right. Also, if you thought that Greg Walsh would get a martini from Solvent, and everyone on the planet that disagreed with his actions would get a Molotov, you would again be right.
This may be old news but, sometimes you can get a martini for stopping doing something that you deserve a molotov for right? Well, if so, the Pope gets a martini for admitting that condoms are useful in the fight against AIDS, and hence, acceptable for Catholics to use, even if the circumstances in which they are acceptable, are very limited. The Catholic Church deserves a Molotov for every life senselessly began, or ended due to the Church’s outlook on condoms, which is borrowed from the stone age, but give the Pope a martini anyway, maybe it will take the edge off of memories of a childhood spent in the Hitler Youth. Poor fella…
