I was searching on the internet for the best way to clean dust from the tops of books and found this, which is a bit alarming:

I'm girding my loins! ;)

We've picked a bad day - I'm already on a tear over the misuse of undocumented immigrants to further social change:

ASSOCIATED PRESS

Quote
Illegal Immigrant Who Sought Sanctuary in Chicago Church Deported

LOS ANGELES —
An immigration activist who took refuge in a Chicago church for a year to avoid being separated from her son has been deported to Mexico, the church's pastor said.

Arellano, 32, became a symbol of the struggles of illegal immigrant parents when she took refuge in the church to avoid being separated from her 8-year-old son, a U.S. citizen.

Arellano came to Washington state illegally in 1997. She was deported to Mexico shortly after, but returned and moved to Illinois in 2000, taking a job cleaning planes at O'Hare International Airport.
She was arrested in 2002 at O'Hare and convicted of working under a false Social Security number. She was to surrender to authorities last year.

Immigration activists responded with anger to her arrest, and promised protests and vigils to support her.
"We are sad, but at the same time we are angry," said Javier Rodriguez, a Chicago immigration activist who worked with Arellano. "How dare they arrest this woman?"
Anti-illegal immigrant groups said the arrest was long overdue.


Why do advocates for social change always pick the worst examples to publicize?

A. The woman entered the U.S -illegally - OK, an infraction, like a traffic ticket.

B. She is deported and then re-enters the country illegally - OK- now were up to a serious misdemeanor at least.

C. She falsifies information to obtain a job; is arrested, and convicted - now she is a criminal.

D. She fails to obey a court order to surrender - now she is a felon fugitive.

E. She seeks a phony sanctuary in a church and thumbs her nose at authorities.

F, She leaves the church with much publicity to protest against the government

G. She gets arrested and deported - NO KIDDING!

And, now, I am supposed to feel sorry for the family because the felon Mama abandoned her child - PLEASE!

If the immigration rights folks want to gain some sympathy for their cause, find an undocumented immigrant couple, both employed without resorting to falsifying SSNs, neither of whom has an arrest record, with a mix of undocumented and US born children, and then pick them up for deportation. (Now, you must address the issue of splitting the family between legal and illegal - and you are also removing the sole means of support for the US born children. - NOW YOU GET SOME SYMPATHY!

der Brucer

PS I would improve on the above scenario by finding an undocumented couple of obvious northern-Europen genetic heritage.

Dear Bk, good luck in NYC. If you see your close personal friend Stehen Sondheim, tell him to keep up the good work(Have you noticed that if Mr Sondheim had become a Jesuit, his initials would have been S.J. Sondheim, S.J. ?) MY BK QUESTION is, has Brain from Planet X been recorded and if so , where can I get a copy, bmccabe@umich.edu, or Brian from Planet X.

Doh!, I'll be picking up the brain from Kritzerland; Also, reading the press release it mentioned that Mr Kimmel co-authored one of my favorite flicks, THE FACULTY. How could I have missed this? Congrats on that film ,BK. You should be bragging more about it. Now you know why if you scramble the vowels in the word brain, you end up with Brian.

Big Brother live feed comments.

I am really disgusted by dick and the producers.


Update.  Jen is on slop. She started eating regular food.  She was told she would get a penalty nom next week with no chance of being taken off the block (if she stayed).  So they decided to vote jameka off.

Well then big brother changed their minds and decided that she would not get a penalty nom next week. Instead she would get an extra vote against her this week.

Now whether that was more fair or not is up for debate. But how can they change the rules after they've already said what would happen.

And since jen is now the 2nd most popular houseguest (after dick) why would they want her to go. They manipulated things so eric and dick could stay. Why not jen?

Btw, i feel so sorry for jen and am so proud of her.  She is finally standing up to dick (he is abusing her like crazy). He hid all her clothes and make-up in the hoh room, burned her with his cigarette (maybe not totally on purpose) and has been nothing but vile and disgusting towards her.

I just can't believe that his misrepresentation on the cbs show has made him popular.  Everybody on the live feeds board i read thinks he is so vile and completely horrid.  I just don't get why the producers have let him abuse and threaten jen like them have. really poor job on their part.
