Well, for good or ill I'm married to a fan of "Celebrity Apprentice." Alas, George Takei was "fired" last night... but for being on a show that encourages histrionics and infighting for the sake of melodrama, Takei was the very definition of the term "class act." Even though he tried to remain steadfast in his fight for a charity very close to his heart, George couldn't be baited for love or money to be negative toward his competitors. My wife - hardly a Star Trek fan or a fan of George Takei in particular - commented on what a high-quality, stand-up guy he was.

My boss is bashing Americans. Again.

He loves all those realty shows. Keeps telling me I "need to watch them."

Then another co-worker is on my case because I don't read the "Classics", I've never read the Iliad or Odyssey, which I guess is a mortal sin, then he says Helena is the wife of Zeus!!

I said, "I thought Hera was Zeus' wife, Helena was in Troy." Oh yeah that's right.

Thirded. :lol:

Also, glad to see that you've come around, Jon. You just can't be nice all the time in this society. I wish we could, but sometimes, you just have to say 'fuck off, you twit'.
There is only one way of avoiding the war – that is the overthrow of this society. However, as we are too weak for this task, the war is inevitable. -L. Trotsky, 1939
