Women and Clothing

When will men, politicians and legislators (particularly the French and the Islamophobes) learn that it is a woman's fundamental right to decide over her clothing and over her own body?

If a woman wishes to wear a burkini to the beach, it is her prerogative to do so. Just as much as she has the right to wear a bikini or even to throw away her bikini-top.

These rights do not diminish if she happens to be a Muslim and chooses to cover her body at the beach.

Stay the hell away from woman's clothing and their bodies!

Should the men, legislators and politicians (particularly the French, right-wing, Christian and Islamophobic ones) not be able to contain themselves completely, perhaps they should legislate that Philippe Pradal, le maire de Nice, should be obliged to wear a burkini when he visits a beach. I am certain that he would be much more of an eyesore in regular swimwear.

Dame Edna - A Spectacular Show

My friend Othon and his dear friend Dame Edna welcomes us all to a spectacular diva show at The Oval Theatre Company (SLurl) on September 3rd, 5th, 7th or 9th, 2016, at 1PM SLT.

Othon has privately recommended that I purchase a big box of Depends before going, because - as he tells me - I risk wetting myself laughing.

Mmmm Mighty...

It could be the lighting I guess, but... 

Usain's Treble-Treble

Usain Bolt, the Jamaican sprinter who turns 30 on Sunday, today accomplished his “treble-treble” goal, by winning three gold medals (100m, 200m and the 4x100m relay) in three consecutive Olympics; Beijing 2008, London 2012 and Rio 2016.

Some of our heroes never disappoint. Thank you, Usain!
