Blog Number Twenty-Two: Julia Wilson, Canadian Military, Wal-Mart, and Random Thoughts
As always, any questions, concerns, complaints, or suggestions can be sent to razorsedgeblog@gmail.com. ALL emails will read, disseminated, and laughed at by our crack staff before we answer them...on crack.
Before we get to the topics at hand, WE'RE FUCKING BACK BITCHES!!!! After a LONG two month hiatus, The Razor's Edge is back with a whole new blog, and we're crankier than ever.
Since the last blog, the mighty Seattle Seahawks are 4-and-1, the Washington State Cougars are 4-and-3, and the St. Louis Cardinals will face the Detroit Tigers in the World Series. To be really honest (and when are we not here at the Edge), who in the blue hell really cares about two mid-market teams that have sucked the past few years and, by all accounts, are making TV executives pull their grey hairs out of their aging scalps? Nobody cares about this World Series. We here at the Edge predict the ratings will be lower than past contests and Detroit will win in five games.

More half-nekkid chicks you want, the more half-nekkid chicks you get.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------
so, without further ado...from omegaman's bs ranch in farmington, new mexico, we bring to you:
*one...officials in an elementary school in boston have banned touch football, tag, "and any other unsupervised chase game during recess for fear they'll get hurt and hold the school liable," according to an AP article republished on yahoo! news 18 october 2006.
"I think that it's unfortunate that kids' lives are micromanaged and there are social skills they'll never develop on their own," said Debbie Laferriere, who has two children at Willett, about 40 miles south of Boston. "Playing tag is just part of being a kid."
this mom couldn't be more right. what's next? pass a law saying kids are banned from going outside in fear that the rain will cause them to rust? burn in hell, school officials!
**two...george michael, yeah THAT george michael, says smoking pot "keeps me sane and happy." michael went on the say, while a guest on the "The South Bank Show," that marijuana is "a great drug but obviously not that healthy."
again, there's no real witty retort here, nor is there some angry lashing for anyone at this juncture. hey george, you stashin' over there? hook a brother up yo!
***three...porn star mary carey is an official gubernatorial candidate in california, and, to make matters worse, she is demanding equal time on the tonight show with jay leno. she was quoted in a 20 october 2006 reuters article republished on yahoo! entertainment news as saying, "I just don't think it's fair of Jay to have his friend Arnie on, and not me," Carey said in a statement. "I think Jay would really like me once he got the chance to meet me. And I'd be a better interview since I'm much cuter and speak better English."
first of all, the whore doesn't have a chance in hell of winning. second, who cares about a female porn star doing anything but giving men hard-ons and fucking their brains out?

Quote of the Day
"Pain: it's a part of the puzzle. Blood: it's the price of freedom. Death: it's not that easy. Suffering: you haven't seen anything yet. "
-Jigsaw (Tobin Bell), "Saw III"

We here at the Razor's Edge believe, without reservation or without fear of retaliation, in the First Amendment of the Constitution of the United States which says:
"Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof; or abridging the freedom of speech, or of the press; or the right of the people peaceably to assemble, and to petition the government for a redress of grievances."
In turn, we also believe, without reservation or without fear of retaliation, in the Fifth Amendment of the Constitution of the United States which says:
"No person shall be held to answer for a capital, or otherwise infamous crime, unless on a presentment or indictment of a grand jury, except in cases arising in the land or naval forces, or in the militia, when in actual service in time of war or public danger; nor shall any person be subject for the same offense to be twice put in jeopardy of life or limb; nor shall be compelled in any criminal case to be a witness against himself, nor be deprived of life, liberty, or property, without due process of law; nor shall private property be taken for public use, without just compensation."
Basically, the First Amendment guarantees United States citizens the right of free speech and the Fifth Amendment guarantees United States citizens the protection of self incrimination through the right of free speech.
This now brings to Julia Wilson, a fourteen-year-old high school freshman in Sacremento, California. Ms. Wilson posted a picture of President Bush on her Myspace account, scrawled “Kill Bush” across the top and drew a dagger stabbing his outstretched hand. She was disappointed with Bush's handling of the war in Iraq and his policies regarding the war on terror.
Two Secret Service agents pulled Wilson out of class October 11th and questioned her for appoximately 15 minutes or so.
“They yelled at me a lot,” she said, quoted in an AP article on the msnbc.com website. “They were unnecessarily mean.”
She was also quoted as saying she is a peace loving person and she would never kill the President.
“I wasn’t dangerous. I mean, look at what’s (stenciled) on my backpack — it’s a heart. I’m a very peace-loving person."
Hey Julia, are you the stupidiest bitch that has ever lived? You call yourself "peaceful" and yet you called your former Myspace blog "Kill Bush." You got away with the perfect crime! If this was a 14-year old boy who made this page, he would be in juvenile detention awaiting adult charges. But because you are a girl, you get off scott free!
Hope you have fun burning in Hell, you sick, perverse bitch.

In a Reuters article posted 12 October 2006 on the cnn.com website, Canadian troops have been experiencing problems with marijuana in Afghanistan while confronting Taliban fighters. I know what you're thinking (it's the same thing I was when I first read this story), this story is going to turn out just like Canadian snowboarder Ross Rebagliati getting his Gold medal taken away in the 1998 Winter Games in Nagano, Japan.
Apparently, Taliban fighters in Afghanistan have grown ten-foot marijuana plants and use the chiba-chiba as cover from thermal devices the Canadian military use to hunt down Taliban fighters.
"The challenge is that marijuana plants absorb energy, heat very readily. It's very difficult to penetrate with thermal devices. ... And as a result you really have to be careful that the Taliban don't dodge in and out of those marijuana forests," General Rick Hillier, chief of the Canadian defense staff, said in a speech in Ottawa, Canada on 12 October 2006.
Hiller went on to say that a few of the plants did catch fire a a few soldiers did breath in the smoke, causing "ill effects."
There's no real witty retort here, nor is there some angry lashing for anyone at this juncture. We here at the Edge just have one question:
WHERE CAN WE SIGN UP FOR THE 420 BATTALLION?
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------
I, John McCaurthur, have been a great supporter of Wal-Mart.
Even if the number one retailer in the World underpays their employees at sickening rates, and even if the health benefits the hourly employees receive are far worse than the health benefits ten-year-old boys and girls working in Chinese sweatshops receive, (but that's another rant for a different blog), and even though Wal-Mart tends to "prime" people for management positions based on their gender, race, or sexual orientation, rather than their true abilities, as an answer to countless lawsuits against them for past apparent discrimination, I will still continue to support Wal-Mart.
Although the few really, really, bad things do not, in my opinion, wipe away good the company does for the enviroment, the local communities they move into, or the jobs they bring in, I will continue to support Wal-Mart wholeheartedly.
On the morning of 16 October 2006, nearly 200 employees of Wal-Mart Supercenter store in Hialeah Gardens, Florida walked out of their jobs in protest led by two department managers, Guillermo Vasquez and Rosie Larosa.
According to a Business Week online story republished on msnbc.com, the department managers took associates one by one and told them of their grievances. "Among them were moves to cut the hours of full-time employees from 40 hours a week to 32 hours, along with a corresponding cut in wages, and to compel workers to be available for shifts around the clock. In addition, the shifts would be decided not by managers, but by a computer at company headquarters. Employees could find themselves working 7 a.m. to 4 p.m. one week and noon to 9 p.m. the next."
Vasquez and Larosa asked the associates to take part of the walkout,and, when the smoke cleared, fifteen department managers joined with the employees in the staged walkout and over four-hundred associates by signed the petition that would later be sent to Wal-Mart's home office in Bentonville, Arkansas and another sent to Florida Gov. Jeb Bush.
I, John McCaurthur, fully endorse any revolution that leads to great change. I firmly believe the Walton family takes heed to this walkout and, as Sam Walton the founder of Wal-Mart has said, "Listen to our associates."
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
We here at the Edge have been sitting down in high-level meeting, wondering what we, as a cohesive, blogging juggarnaut, can do to better our product.
We were thinking more photos of hot chicks, but that would be so cliche. I mean, if we here at the Edge continue to degrade blogging as a whole by adding pictures of half-nekkid women, then what would other bloggers think of us?
Would we be reduced to the common fourteen-year-old, stay-in-his-mother's-basement-blogger that gets off on looking at pictures of half-nekkid women because he is to inept to get a half-nekkid woman in his room to masterbate to?
Are we, as serious bloggers, put onto the Earth to degrade
women in the fashion of using their sexuality to furthur propagte some sort of sick, perverse marketing point for our blog site? Are we, the Razor's Edge, meant to use the half-nekkid photographs of women to degrade them to a lower class than those of their male counterparts?
Are we, the males of this society, supposted to raise the women of our society onto pedalstools and celebrate their womanhood as strong female archtypes of femininity, strength, and glory?
