Oh, Flint... everyone knows a woman can't be President. We'd be bombing some new country every time we came around to "that time of the month."

The PDX Lloyd Center (shopping center) made the TV news last night.

The Center announced it would maintain it's 50 yr old policy

Clodfobble's brain can't be president because it's a pron star.

The owner of the stain should be pleased. It was transformed from a physical piece of art to performance art.

I have a stain on my shirt. Imagine what that must be worth.

Tough Love: Toronto Zoo to Separate ‘Gay’ Penguin Couple


Quote:
It’s a romance suited for the pages of a children’s book. (Oh wait, that sounds familiar.)
Buddy and Pedro are two male African penguins at the Toronto Zoo who seem to have a connection — a very special, loving connection — that has zookeepers wondering if their relationship is more than just a bromance.
(PHOTOS: Same-Sex Overtures Across Species)
According to the Toronto Star, zookeepers have noticed that although Buddy, 20, and Pedro, 10, swim and play with the other penguins in their enclosure by day, they pair off and nest together at night as well as exhibit other telltale mating behaviors, such as touching, making braying sounds and defending their territory.
Does this mean that Buddy and Pedro are gay? Not exactly, as the term doesn’t normally apply to animals. But according to research from the University of California, Berkeley, birds — and other animals, for that matter — are known to form same-sex relationships.

WHY must the zoo separate the gay penguin couple?

Look, asshats, life is hard enough as it is and IF two people (or three) find love it should be honored and respected and left to play out. Separating these two is wrong for the zoo, wrong for Toronto and wrong for Canada!

LET GAY ZOO ANIMALS ALONE!!!

In accordance with the species’ survival plan, the zoo staff will separate Buddy and Pedro so they can fulfill their biological destiny: to create more African penguins.

Ogopogo, Canada's version of the Loch Ness Monster, was caught on film!

Admit it, you doubted its existence before this, didn't you?

I never did. Because I'd never heard of it. I know Scotland, and you, Canada, are no Scotland. (I kid Canada. I love Canada. I've never been to Canada but, except for the cold, I would love Canada.)

I remember that time you saw a billboard that read: Drink Canada Dry! and you tried to. I remember that. Good times, good times.
