Calvin's Soapbox

okay lotsa stuff happening over the weekend so here' s a recap of whats relevant to me (yes, i'm imposing that on u, bitches.. hee):

okay so rowlings dropped a bomb on us - apparently dumbledore's gay. yes, u read right. G-frickerty-A-Y. i can't for the love of me understand why in the world would she do that. dont get me wrong, its not that i have anything against gays, but why would u put a gay character into a children's book? dont think u parents all over the world are going to have a hard time explaining the concept of gays to their 3 yr olds?! (well maybe she was merely just taking the lead of LOTR, which had gays in 90% of their characters.. hehe). see the article here

next comes the definite highlight to my weekend..

KIMI RAIKONNEN WON THE F1 DRIVER'S CHAMPIONSHIP!!



whats amazing about this was that not only his chances were practically zero halfway thru the season, he turned that around spectacularly in the end. okay so technically he was handed the championship by hamilton who lead the championship thruout the season, only to (i can't stress on this enough) MAJESTICALLY screw it all up at the end.

the irony of it all is that mclaren, who were so confident in sealing both championships just a few months earlier, walked away with absolutely NOTHING this season except for the 100 million fine. hohoho! so maybe now ron dennis and hamilton and wipe that stupid smirk of their faces.

this has been an excellent season, with genuine head-to-head motor racing, inter-team politics and even a touch of corporate espionage to boot! lets all just hope that next year would be equally as interesting..

okay finally caught the latest Heroes and Grey's over the wkend, but somehow feel that both shows have kinda lost its ummph. doesnt matter though as there doesnt seem to be any nicer shows to watch.

okay enough of my ranting on this cold, rainy and sleepy monday morning.. time to get back to work!~
