“That said, I also rewrote both my About and Accessibility statements recently, too. I stripped out all the technical detail relating to the stuff I spend much of my time away from here doing. And the reason I’m choosing today, of all days to post this bit of shameless self-promotion, is how 9/11 has come to relate to the topic I wrote about in my revised statement concerning Accessibility…”

“My initial impressions mainly centred around two elements in the film. The violence and the controversy I recall the film inciting when it was initially released — that being the Jews were responsible for Jesus’ crucifixion. What follows is what I could gather, again, from watching the first half. And, for the record, I intend to watch the second half, soon. It’s just 3 and a half hours to sit while watching a movie is a tad tedious. This ain’t no Lord of the Rings — even though some of those characters looked like they came from Middle Earth…”
“But I’ve taken her words out of context, you say? It’s quite possible I have. I can admit it. Not that I care.

“We all, Canadian’s most definitely included, need to swiftly remove our heads, as abruptly as possible, from our collective hind parts and stopped accepting myth for reality…”
“I’ll refrain from adding any comment to the bunch of words I’m urging people to read today. And, for the purposes of my point, I’ll say it’s a little late for this post — at least in relation to when the article was posted, being the beginning of last week (September 7th) — but the content of Tim Wise’s piece is not any less relevant today…”
“Exactly why are people so afraid of labelling these acts of hatred, intolerance, and fear for what they so clearly happen to be?”
“Not that this little fact will change the tide. People, the first 3 morons I named at the start of this piece, especially, are ignorant. And it seems they prefer to remain that way. Fair enough. But when their bullshit starts to affect people, people they are so flagrantly misrepresenting, it’s time to turn the other cheek…”
