Might Shatner Boldly Lead Canada As Governor?
just fiddling around writes "Now that Michaëlle Jean is approaching the end of her customary five-year post as Governor General of Canada, the rumor mill has started on who Prime Minister Steven Harper will propose to the Queen in her stead. According to the CBC, the short list includes Captain Kirk, actor William Shatner. It seems that acting can lead to the highest offices in places other than California."
The Queen of Canada too? I mean I know they only became a real country in the 80's but you'd think they'd get their own Queen when that happened.
Did you know 80 to 90% of the moderators on slashdot wouldn't recognize a troll even if one dragged them under a bridge.
Yeah, call me when she cavorts with the cannibals too will ya?
Also, lets have some respect for the Indian caste system while we're at it. Those are some endangered people right there. Entire livelihoods being destroyed, I tells ya!
Yeah, it was a lame publicity stunt, designed to get on the newspapers, and give the finger to the europeans.
No need to invoke my moral standards or lack thereof, to see that was what it was meant for. That she felt the need to do it and chose to use raw seal hearts as a prop says a lot about her character. In a different era, she'd have fit right in a circus freak show I guess, you know, the ones with weird animals on display for our amusement?
"Physically incapable... " of eating anything else? Haha, and also all those scientists in the antarctic also have to airlift in tons of raw seal hearts I guess? Wait, no, its raw penguin hearts for those guys... And how do people ever manage to live on ships and submarines? Six months at a time without access to raw seal hearts must leave them feeling ravenous at the end of a tour of duty. Or do they just hunt a lot of seals beforehand and store the meat? No that wouldn't be it, in your world, I guess all the food technology humans invented for distribution and storage isn't actually used by anyone (except vegetarians...). Very puzzling!
Yeah, humans were in caves too at one point. You suggesting we should go back to that? Or that there was something wrong with moving out of the caves and using our brains for something other than subsistence living?
