Straight is the new Gay

Yep, I said it, you heard it here first, spread the word. Answers.com describes the Retrosexual as : "the antithesis of the metrosexual: a man with an undeveloped aesthetic sense who spends as little time and money as possible on his appearance and lifestyle".

Men are sick and tired of having to worry about their hair and skin. They're giving up learning to be sensitive and know when to cry in movies. Men are reclaiming their sexuality, John Wayne, Jack Palance and Telly Savalace would be proud. Chuck Norris started this thing and we're gona ride the wave to the end.


IN THE NEWS

Is this the end of D-TV? ICASA has developed and released a set of codes to be used by broadcasting and telecommunication providers when providing services to disabled people.

There's more controversy around Helen Zille placing a one week stop to the appointment of consultants for the Green Point Stadium Rebuild. Ebrahim Rasool is upset that she showed "no patience" on the issue, mmm her saying let's wait a week until we see proper financial models, I wonder what that was. Remember that the price tag of R1Bil is the whole of the City's budget for the year, the MayCo was told that the city would have to come up with "creative ways" to raise the cash. I've got a few ideas, and they all tie in with item B on the contest list.

If you want a story about a special kind of crazy, check this out. Johan Huibers is building himself an ark. Yes you read right, he's building a full size, scale replica (I don't get it either) of the biblical escape pod.

In their infinite wisdom the powers that be have declared that next time there is a storm in New Orleans shelters will not be provided. This is in a effort to make it "more attractive" for people to leave than it is to stay. I don't know if this is going to work, there's always the promise of looting.

They've done it again. In a continued attempt to get me to visit Las Vegas another attraction has been added. In addition to awesome shows, gambling, quick marriages and Pink(tm) strip clubs Now they have the largest buffet on earth, and it only costs $7.50 or about R 45. Powers failing, must resist.

In France a cosmetics factory was robbed of 10 000 jars of L'Oreak RevitaLift. The cops are on the look out for a well organised group of hardened criminals, with soft skin.

Ever doubted that there was a market for everything and anything? Well it's true, apparently you can even buy truckloads of raw sewerage. Not in enough shit? Buy some of ours.
