I posted this on ABC dot com because all this bullshivic with the dances here at Prairie is really starting to piss me off. Enjoy!!

I think that the comment on the situation seeming to be straight out of an 80's teen angst is more then correct, I mean really, there is a reason those films got horrible reviews and its because they are all angsty and melodramatic over small and insignificant situations, which is exactly how Principle Perrins and Vice Principle McSheehy are acting. I can tell you that I am also a student from Prairie High School, I was at the dance that caused all this hubbub and let me tell you, if there was more REAL dirty dancing it might have actually been an interesting dance. Quite frankly I think that Perrins and McSheehy and overstayed their welcome at this school. It is one thing for teachers, principles and the like to act on issues for the good of the students, NOT to act like egotistical maniacs holding a series of guns to your heads with their fingers shaking on the trigger. Seriously though, what does dirty dancing do? Sexual harassment? Oh please! That is almost as lame an argument as calling consensual sex consensual rape. There was not one person at that dance doing ANYTHING against their will and again, trust me, I know these people, they'd be vocal about it if something did. Also, how do these people actually expect to change how we dance? Seriously, I don't care how you tell me I have to stand my leg will find its way onto some other persons leg and that is a fact not just for me but for a lot of other people too. Perrins and McSheehy should be poster children for old and presently useless thought that needs to be thrown with the rest of the trash, like Twilight or Adam Sandler.Please, I would appreciate your thoughts on my comment. jjoshay@gmail.com Thank you!

Hope you enjoyed it!! I sure as hell know I did.

A LE LE LOI LA!! Now say that 10 times fast..

2008-12-05T23:55:00.000-08:00

Seriously? Where is the point where political correctness becomes ridiculous? I was in the Battle Ground High School band room (saying my hail mary's the whole way through, mind you) and on the board I see traditional, religious based Christmas songs, like, you know, the ones that EVERYONE knows! The band was apparently working on them for the Symphonic Choir's Christmas Concert. What songs are we singing at Prairie High School under the supervision of one Ms. Tabor? Spirit of the Season from the Polar Express, and a Finnish folk song called A Le Le Loi La... and that is exactly what the lines in the song sing, a le le loi la. Repeated about 80 or 90 times, sorry, more. We are also singing When A Child is Born on the assumption that it could be ANY child we are singing about.

But A le le loi la? Seriously? Singing those words in various tones for three minutes? That's not a song, thats redundant. I don't get it, why can't we not sing GOOD songs? I suggested Merry Xmas (War is Over) by John Lennon and Yoko Ono. You know what she said to me? No. Why? Because that would insinuate that she was anti-war, that might offend some people. What? I asked. Who is offended by people being happy about war being over? Who isn't happy when a war is over? Who isn't relieved when a war is over? Who isn't happy and relieved about THIS war being over? What's wrong with being insinuated as possibly anti-war? It's a bloody Christmas song! Its a CLASSIC Christmas song! Not only that but it is also relevant to the times we are currently going through, and it is a great ensemble piece for a concert choir, AND THE MAIN MESSAGE ISN'T EVEN ABOUT WAR! But no, instead we get a Finnish folk song... WHAT GOOD THING CAME OUT OF FINLAND!? What interesting thing came out of Finland? I'm not being racist I'm just saying, the history of Finland is boring. A le le loi la? I swear to god, put on some trashy ensemble set of clothes from Wal-Mart, sit in a wheel chair with a blanket on your lap, hold a cup, set your right arm against your chest, limp your wrist and people would hand you their spare change with a look of pity painted across their faces. I mean dear god.

Why don't we sing O 'Holy Night? No, too religious. Santa Claus in Comin' to Town? No, no no no. We get to sing Finnish folk songs!! Oh joy!! Can't you see the enthusiasm beaming off my face! We even get to clap in tune to the music! I think there is a jig we get to do to. And why not do a repetitive Finnish folk song? No one in the audience is going to be Finnish, or get any deeper meaning from this song, but apparently, to stay politically correct, we get to stray away from traditional music to Finnish music because Finland is just that special. Maybe the board of people against the ignoring of Finland contacted the National Choir Association, getting all pissed because no one cared about the music coming out of Finland. Too busy listening to Bruce Springsteen to Santa Claus is Comin' to Town, or Mariah Carey, hell, even Art Garfunkle get's more attention then Finland!! I can see why, who wrote this song and who decided it was a great choir piece? If we wanted Prairie's Concert Choir to sound like a bunch of down-syndrome kids, we'd simply take out half of the class and call it even. But no, instead we all get tortured with this random, redundant piece of Finnish drivel. It's rediculous!

why who is that stalker coming down my chimny?

Now think about this...

Some fat, creepy, sweaty old man sneaks into your house at night to give your children presents. He knows who you are down to almost disturbing and meticulous detail. He has been following you, and he always knows where you are and what you have been doing (no, he's not Jesus). He is impossible to catch which makes him all the more disturbing and he is always clawing away at the back of your mind. If you do catch him, you take him away and persecute him to the fullest extent of the law, and IF he is able to get out, every one in the entire state has to know where he lives right down the his address and how many times he shaves in the morning so you can know exactly what he looks like.

Stick a hat and a red suit on him and you're telling your kids, "You better be good or go to sleep or else he won't give you anything."

Yeah, lets face it, the idea of some fat, sweaty guy sneaking into your house and being so happy about it is creepy. Yet hey, lets glorify him to our children! Never talk to strangers, unless he is sneaking into your house kids! Then he may give you something... OH NO NOT THAT!

If fantastically creepy isn't the right phrase, its the first one that comes to mind. I mean really!

"He see's you when your sleeping, he knows when your awake,"

What the hell?! This is scary shit! Everybody is so happy cause some guy is stuffing his fat ass down your chimney ready to give you presents! Whats more disturbing? Michael Myers with a knife or a fat dude with a bag?

How he became a symbol of this happy joyous holiday? I don't know but I have to go, my nephew is becoming scared or the loud noises in Winneh the Pooh. Its okay little bud, Santa is coming soon!!

Happy Holidays!! Come Back Soon!!

"Come back soon"
"Oh what a horrible thing to say in a hospital!" - Ghost Town

Look back about a month ago, everybody is all gearing up for Halloween and meanwhile executives at stores like Wal-Mart are about to cum in their pants. Why? Christmas is a mere two months away! So what is Halloween has yet to be done with? Contact the card companies! Request songs at 103.3! String up the lights the holiday spending season is nearly upon us!

Then its Thanksgiving, and while nearly every person across America is sitting down, giving thanks that this beautiful bounty gave its life for their taste buds, again, executives are there in their offices, soiled pants and all with their tails wagging and slobber hitting the floor. Why? One month now! Black Friday is tomorrow and then the onslaught will continue! I swear these people are going to die of heart attacks from all the excitement.

Are there people who's power is about to be shut off because they can't afford it this months rent? Yes. Are there people living in the streets, scrounging through the garbage cans behind peoples houses hoping for whats left of the Thanksgiving stuffing? Yes. Could we use these people in a commercial to get more people to come buy all our "Made In China" plastic shit? YES!!!!!!

It's so perfect? Buy a small toy gun for your child from the largest commercial store in America, donate 50 cents to some near no name charity and all you can feel better about yourself as you go back to your hot and ready house that caters to your every need and whim while some little child in Africa dies of AIDS. Terrorist attacks in India? Oh, well thats horrible, all these Muslims killing people just to... oh my god a dancing reindeer for $9.95!!

Please Emmerich, Stop this Madness!!

Roland Emmerich is a horrible director. Do you remember Stargate? Neither does anyone else. No one remembers The Patriot either, even if that one was halfway descent. But then Emmerich did something horrible, he made a movie so terrible that for a moment people forgave Ben Afflack for Gigli and Daredevil; Emmerich made 10,000B.C.

That's right, it's this man's fault that we all gave up an hour and a half of our time on this disgusting piece of dribble. I mean honestly, he should be shot like JFK, quick and in public to a large outcry from the people. Or maybe Lincoln, that was during a show so at least everybody was cheering.

Seriously though! Did you waste as much money on this film as I did? I paid $8, and 1:45 minutes of my life on this. My first reaction at the beginning, THE BEGINNING, was "Wow, this kind of sucks." all the way till the end where I was almost ready to grab a pitchfork and chase down every person behind this project. A) Was Mary Kay really making eye liner in the pre-Jurassic period? I mean I knew she was old the stores been around for a while but damn. B) Did giant ostriches evolve over all these years into smaller, less raptor like creatures that can no longer climb trees with their beaks? C) WHAT THE HELL WAS WITH THE WOOLLY MAMMOTHS ON THE PYRAMIDS!?!?!?!?!?!?

How were the people all able to walk from some piss-ante Montana wilderness to Egypt? Why did they all speak perfect English? Where did all the brain cells go when people were writing this movie!? Did they fall on the floor along with Emmerich's balls? Were the people sleep writing or did they just hire a monkey to bang away at a type writer for a few minutes? How did this dreck get produced? I speak the god-honest truth when I say that this is the most poorly produced piece of pop-culture trash the the New Testament.

But what is worse, what really takes the cake on the most horrible pieces of news since Bush was re-elected in 2004, is that Emmerich is making ANOTHER film!! It's going to be called 2012 and is about the Mayan prophecy that the world will end in 2012, originality a-go-go! And notice that this film is planned for release next year, 2009, instead of, wait for it, 2012!! Why? How come we have to go to cineplex's to see Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince and hear the sounds of more ultimate mayhem from the master of trash mayhem? I do not know but Independence Day is looking better every time I think of the last few films Emmerich has done. The teaser trailer is already on Rotten Tomatoes and honestly it looks just as bad as B.C.

Here's to hoping Emmerich dies of lung-cancer before this project is able to see the light of day. God bless big tobacco.
