Happy Birthday, Tom. I guess you were one of the ones I missed... I apologize.

And, Alison, what exactly are you planning? Eyebrows are raised when Spock, assassinations and vegetarians are mentioned together.

Edit: I just realized the eyebrows/Spock thing. I apologize, once again.

haha, and another one:

hmm...

in other news, Spock and Kirk are vegetarians!!!

and, if you've ever wondered, here's a primer on the ins and outs of assassination.

oh, and happy birthday Tom.

Speaking of the Refused, is anyone going to t(i)nc? I figure I should probably go since they were absolutely killer the last two times I saw them.

Is Canada ready to have an Italian Parliamentary MP?

Italian politics are screwed up. Apparently his riding consists of 16 countries.

(Although spending 50k CAD on a campaign and landing yourself a job that pays 200k euros a year... sounds pretty sweet)

SOOOO NECESSARY!!!

Is Italy ready for a communist trans-gender MP?:

Vladimir Luxuria, who is set to become Italy's first trans-gender member of parliament, has learned to look his detractors "straight in the eye" and get on with the causes dear to his heart.

"Obviously I want to fight a lot of things, starting with everything the right has done these last years," the performer and gay rights activist told AFP. "I want to help build a multi-ethnic, multisexual society, and showcase diversity as a value and an opportunity, not a threat."

Born Wladimiro Guadagno, the 40-year-old Luxuria's candidacy in the elections, standing for the Refounded Communist Party (PRC), is sending chills through a broadly conservative nation with no dearth of machismo.
...

The insults have reached fever pitch in the run-up to the elections Sunday and Monday.

Alessandra Mussolini, the granddaughter of the late dictator, said on a television program: "Better to be fascist than queer."

I don't know if you'll still be able to see this picture, but this was the idea for my next Grand Arms. Unfortunately some japanese Gundam Wing fan drew his Gundam version of my idea. Damn beaten to the punch again.
