It's been a few days since I posted the story from Saskatoon, Saskatchewan about the atheist who was pissed off about transit buses scrolling "Merry Christmas" messages (see below). Since then, it seems a committee of that city's council has re-affirmed the "Merry Christmas" messages will be allowed to continue. At least for this year. The whole issue has been referred to another committee for study.
In fact, the committee ruling on Ashu Solo's request to have them taken off debated for a whole 5 minutes before ruling against him. He says he's still planning on going to the Human Right's Commission. Good luck. You'll need it.
And speaking of planning, that's what's kept me from posting lately, as I'm still getting ready for the "Apocalypse" party Friday, when the Mayan calendar says the world will end.
I'll have more on that Saturday. For sure.
'Nuff said.
Welcome! I hope you enjoy, and are maybe infuriated by, my somewhat irreverent take on world news and events, and the people who make and shape them. I hope we can share a laugh, and maybe provoke a thought, about what's happening "out there".
