Wherein swims a freak of nature in the seas of change. Wednesday, May 6, 2009. India Travel: Removing Masks. Years ago, I traveled in India for two months. The first month was in Meghalaya, a Himalayan tribal state in the northeast corner of India. I was there with my friend, a native Khasi of Meghalaya. (I'll talk about Meghalaya some other time.) The second month I set out on my own, traveling to India and Nepal. He agreed, but when he dropped me off at the fort he asked, "How long are you going to be?

Wherein swims a freak of nature in the seas of change. Tuesday, April 21, 2009. BC Politics: Faux Pas and Scandals. And my opinion: so what? It's obviously consensual on all people's parts. There is no violence. There are no underage people. Some people get together and pull some pranks. It's hardly out of the realm of human behaviour and pretty harmless. Whose morality runs the show? It should be the other way around and the Liberal member should be apologizing to Ray Lam for the untoward attention and ...

Mermaid Tales: Do We Need Another Beauty Queen?
http://colleen-anderson.blogspot.com/2009/04/do-we-need-another-beauty-queen.html
Wherein swims a freak of nature in the seas of change. Wednesday, April 15, 2009. Do We Need Another Beauty Queen? Yesterday's CBC Radio One had a pageant coordinator also mention that Canadians just aren't interested in being beauty queens, yet the ethnic beauty contests have continued. Obviously these contests do give exposure to the winner, as well as some prizes and cash. But the other reason they're not popular is become they are still sexist and based on "beauty.". I'm guessing, not. Unfortunately ...

Wherein swims a freak of nature in the seas of change. Wednesday, April 29, 2009. Okay, that's a little joke but I think we need to keep a few things in perspective when it comes to the spreading fear of swine flu. Fear is spreading faster than the flu and though it is a serious enough illness, it should be treated with level headedness, not paranoia. Here's the best thing to do to avoid swine flu, any flu or illness in general: wash your hands well, often, and with soap and water. Cover your mouth w...

Wherein swims a freak of nature in the seas of change. Tuesday, June 2, 2009. Candy of an Era Past. It's sunny and finally like spring out there and who wants to think. So I decided instead to write about candy. And black (licorice) and brown (chocolate) were the best. And of course there were Cracker Jacks, carmelized popcorn with a prize inside. But even better, Pink Elephant popcorn, sweet and pink and with some sort of cool prize. Cracker Jacksm Candy Aisle. Subscribe to: Posts (Atom). Kelp Queen Pre...

Wherein swims a freak of nature in the seas of change. Thursday, February 26, 2009. Should Drugs be Legalized? This should be justified as, should recreational drugs be legalized? So, should drugs be legalized? Remember prohibition, when alcohol suddenly became illegal (having been drunk for years) and the religious right screaming temperance? Once alcohol was legalized the only way organized crime could make money off of it was to bring in far larger quantities at cheaper rates. Or say, smuggle toba...

Wherein swims a freak of nature in the seas of change. Friday, January 23, 2009. Dark and Scary: Bathrooms. Restaurateurs, wherever you are, learn this lesson. No matter how dreamy, retro, romantic, funky or sporty your restaurant, pub or lounge, one thing you do not want ever, and I mean ever, is a dark and scary bathroom. Maybe guys like pissing in the dark, though I doubt it because their aim is never that good, but women really don't. That was the luxury in the predominantly Asian squat toilet. S...
