Poor Guy

LONDON (Reuters) - A retired Scottish school teacher was recovering on Monday after spending nearly four days trapped inside a men's toilet with no food or mobile phone.

David Leggat was locked inside the bathroom at a lawn bowling club near the Scottish city of Aberdeen after the door jammed and the handle on the outside fell off.

The 55-year-old kept warm by dipping his feet in hot water but only managed to get about three hours' sleep a night in the freezing temperatures, the local Evening Express newspaper reported.

He was rescued when the cleaner at the club, which is little used in winter, turned up to collect her cleaning equipment.

Leggat said a survival course he had once done had helped him endure his captivity. The cleaning lady said he looked shaken and grey when he emerged. Leggat was stoical.

"At least there was a toilet to use," he said. "The only thing I regret is not getting trapped behind the bar."

This guy is running for Prez


You've already probably got a long list of reasons why you think Mike Huckabee is way too scary to vote for, but just in case you need another one:

"In August of 1998, Huckabee was one of 131 signatories to a full page USA Today Ad which declared: "I affirm the statement on the family issued by the 1998 Southern Baptist Convention." What was in the family statement from the SBC? "A wife is to submit herself graciously to the servant leadership of her husband even as the church willingly submits to the headship of Christ."
The ad wasn't just a blanket, "we support the SBC statement," but rather highlighted details. The ad Huckabee signed specifically said of the SBC family statement: "You are right because you called wives to graciously submit to their husband's sacrificial leadership."
Talk about a major EEWWW! Someone remind me again what century this is...

He also supports these things
- isolating AIDS patients
- thinks abortion is on par with the Holocaust
- believes in faith-based parole of convicted rapists.

Bellagio Fountain Show

Shot this video while in Vegas on October 26th. The Bellagio Hotel does a little fountain show every 15 minutes. It is quite relaxing to watch. About the only relaxing thing in Vegas.

Bionic Idiot


Well I watched an episode of the bionic woman tonight. It is very poorly written and I don't foresee it lasting a full season. The best line of the show is when the supposedly bionic woman asks if Canada "even has a army" in stereotypical American ignorance of Canada (we have been a major presence in Afghanistan since 9/11 and have also lost many soldiers). She's the friggin robot so shouldn't she be able to google that shit in her brain. Best of all like every other crappy TV show, it is filmed in Vancouver (which is one reason I would watch it, to get glimpse here and there of Stanley Park and miss Vancouver)

I don't see a future for character with the powers of a robot but the worst of an American public school education. She should be smart too. Oh well, change the channel. Ah like I was a bartender, I got in a car accident, and now I'm bionic or something.
