an object lesson

in pretentiousness:

while walking around minneapolis, I saw perhaps the most pretentious place possible. Here’s what must have gone through the owner’s minds:

“How do we make the most pretentious place possible?”
“Wine bar!”
“Good start! But how do we make it more pretentious? We’re talking George Clooney pretentious!”
“Hmmm….”
“Wait! I’ve got it! ADD COFFEE!!!!”
“Brilliant!”
“Brilliant!”

and thus Willie’s Wine Bar and Coffee House of Minnepolis was born. I didn’t have the courage to peek into their windows to see the prices. I think the amount of noses in the air at that place would have been an unpleasant view.

clubbing seals

so the hunt begins again.

I blame Canada’s government for this. These baby seals, defenseless and fuzzy, are hunted shamelessly by some in order to sell their skins. Canada’s government should ban this activity completely and utterly, just like other developed countries have. But what alternative do these hunter’s have, they need to make a living as well…

Instead, Canada should allow the clubbing of activists. Lord knows there’re enough of THOSE people around at times like these, and it seems that their numbers are getting too great. It’s time to cull the herd.

I’d pay like $5 for a wallet made with genuine McCartney skin.
