Paradoxical fitness

Today I went for a jog - an early morning jog - in the city, with a friend who shall remain nameless. For simplicity purposes I shall call him, hypothetically, Raymond Hall Yip Louie (or Ray for short). Ray is quite unfit, and now I understand why.

You see, the city is a dirty place and if you take a run and breathe in the noxious fumes, you really do not do your body any justice. After the run, I drank some water and felt all that crap in my mouth.

Success

Readers, I am pleased to inform you that CT the year 7 has reinstated her tagboard. Responding to public pressure, CT was quoted as publicly saying:

"I have indeed replaced the tagboard. Yes, that there on your right is not a mirage. Dear me, for giving [my loyal readers] back their voices."

This is a victory for everyone person who believes in what is right and just. It is a day we can all be proud - knowing that, we can achieve set tasks if we put our minds to it.

I would like to thank all the readers for their support. The campaign was swift, well run, and successful, and many comments were made legitimately by people in no way connected with The Dr G. team. I would particularly like to thank Fred Barnes for all of his investigative work.

To close, I would like you all to know what a great victory this is by attaching a snippet of an email sent by CT the year 7 to me immediately after reinstating her tagboard:

Dear Dr G,

My email account is engulfed in requests for my tagboard back. My life is totally rorted having done this abominable task and for that I apologise. I am wrong - but please give me the dignity of making it seem as though it was my choice to put the tagboard back....



Thats OK, CT. But remember, you are accountable to your readers and all those who use the internet, so you heartfelt apology belongs to them, not just me.

-Well done, CT. Well done.

Reader Feedback

I have received countless emails over the CT-tagboard issue, and here are some of the many responses. I would like you to note, however, thata 90% of the emails were anti-removal and 10% were pro-removal, however, I have put equal numbers of both sides u:

Dear Dr G,

well i think its justified considering where she is coming from. i mean, personallyi wouldnt do it myself,but you know, i guess she's tired of whatever was on it. didnt she put up a warning or sth? ...so it wasn't a rash thing

i think she'll put it back up eventually. i think if you press hard enough she will put it back up.

I personally would encourage her to put it back up.

S.D.

Hey Doc,

Tag boards are funny. HOwever they aren't funny to the person who is the butt-cheek of the jokes. Its an unfortunate situation, because i like tag boards. However the word "steve cai" renders any tag-board subject to being taken down, permanently. So the decision is justified

my blogs aren't that random...

Dear Dr.,

I am not sure if you can cure my heartbreak. That tagboard was the centre of my life. I know I am a loser and sometimes I abused it but I am really really sorry. I just want the board back. I want to be able to post. I remember all those times I posted and laughed and looked forward to reposting. I remember all those competitions I had with friends and I cry. I am really sad this board is gone..

Mr 69.

Dear Doctor G,

If she doesn't want a board because people are mean to her on it, let her be.

Dr G.

If she were a man like me, she would have kept that board. But she is a weak puny female who can't take it and should cook me a steak.

Phil.

Dear G,

I would like to join your movement to get CT the year 7's tag board back up? how can I subscribe?

Thanks

Fred Barnes.

There you have it. CT, all I can say to you is: SHAME, CT. SHAME.

-Shame, CT. Shame.

A big loss

CT the year 7 (see link on sidebar) has removed her ever popular tag board for no reason whatsoever. Her site merely claims that 'for those who think I wouldn't.. I did' which could be a reference to anything. My first thought was that she had done something remarkably dodgy, not only because she has done such things in the past, but because she seems to have a tendency towards that sort of behaviour.

Well, as usual I was right, however this time I wish I wasn't - she took off her tag board. A board which started the tagboard phenomenon and made her site number one for a long time. I am deeply saddened by this, as I am sure, are many others (particularly Phil, 69 and whoever else liked to write on it).

I will admit that it was not always well treated, but in open blogs it is a necessity. I have a closed blog for the reason that I do not need to value anyone else's opinions since mine are so perfect.

CT, you have erred greatly. Reinstate your tagboard. I know it was quite heavily written on, many times by someone claiming to be me (but without my overt wisdom they always failed). What you have done is terrible.

- Shame, CT. Shame.

Train system is poor

I hate catching the train, and I am now comfortable with admitting it seeing as I no longer need to. You see, the train is always late, and it makes me late.

The other day, I was quite surprised that the train was ONLY five minutes late. What great news I thought - then I realised that this had to be too good to be true. However, with optimism in hand I stepped onto the train and like any happy camper, sand joyful melodies until my stop.

However, it was then that the train, realising that I was on it, and thus feeling the need to make me late to my fed con class again, had a breakdown. Yes, the train was delayed by 25 minutes EXACTLY thus making it HALF and hour late - just like always.

Great. Stupid trains.

-Train rhymes with Brain.

Howard Dean - The Sexy Democrat

As everyone with political know-how should now know, John Kerry won the presidential caucus. The unfortunate thing is, he looks like he is high on pot or life or something-in-between. He also has massive eye-bags. He should've started using eye cream when he was 20 like I did. Unlike John Kerry, I have retained my youthful good looks.

So what is my point? My point is, John Kerry is too ugly to become the 569th President of the United Arab Emirates.

I call for the Democrats to rally together behind my nomination for the presidency - Sir Howard Dean. His plump face, strong eyebrows and Southern twang remind me of another rather saucy wench of a president in Bill Clinton. He would give Mr. Bush the thwacking he deserves. Who knows, he might even make good policy.

Other Highly-Commended Hotties of the Democratic Presidential Race include Dennis Kucinich and Al Sharpton. Unfortunately, no one knows who they are.

I say vote on looks. Looks are almost as important as money. Lucky for me, with $28.95 in my bank account and good looks to boot, I have ample amounts of both.

- Howard Dean is a Babe with Brains

Democratic Presidential Race

The democratic party caucuses have decided that John Kerry is the man to lead the democratic party against George W. Bush at the next election. I think this is quite an unusual step.

John Kerry is probably one of the dirtiest campaigners around, which, could be to his benefit later, but it means people like Howard Dean and Dennis Kucinich fade into obscurity early on.

The democratic party is quite simple in the way it is structured. It is always a battle between the left and the right, with the quarter finals, semi's, the final and finally, a winner.

This year Howard Dean, Dick Gephardt and John Kerry came from the left and John Edwards, Wesley Clark and Joe Liberman came from the right. Early on it was a battle between John Kerry and either Wesley Clark or John Edwards. This became a battle between John Kerry and John Edwards, and the left won out.

However, for some reason, Dennis Kucinich and Al Sharpton continue to contest. To me, these people are great, I love their vitality and will to go on even though everyone is ignoring them.

The question becomes: who will John Kerry's VP be? I think if the election is to be close, he will pick Hillary Clinton, otherwise it'll either be Wes Clark or John Edwards.

Now that you all have some form of introduction, I can start to pay people out. Check that in later posts.

-Howard Dean won his state of Vermont after he dropped out of the race.

Indian Films

I had two topics for today, but I think the Indian film I watched takes the cake. I will write about the others later (to keep you in suspence).

I recently decided it was about time I improved my master skills in another language. Of course, being the Dr Genius I am, I can speak close to 10 languages already, but this time I wanted to improve my Urdu/Hindi.

The film went as follows:

Something happened. Then a guy started dancing. Fight Scene. Someone else started dancing. Conversation between a guy and a girl. Fight scene. Someone started to dance...

It was at this point that I could no longer bear to watch this film. I am not sure how people live their lives in India, but I am sure they do not dance as much as they do in films. I also don't think they wear leather jackets on hot days and dance in them because they would surely dehydrate from the loss of bodily fluid.

I could try to be funny here, but this film was just stupid. It was the most idiotic and unrealistic piece of work I have ever seen. I mean, I was seriously expecting to see an elephant do the boogie.

-The only thing worse is the irrelevance of the name of the film. The name translates to "your name" which does not seem to have any correlation to a song about wearing a jacket on a hot day to look cool.

Its probably about time I did this

I realise that I haven't paid out anyone in the extreme sense for quite some time now. To those who are avid fans of my vitriolic writings, I must apologise for this, but in many ways this expresses a fundamental change in my view of life. The likelihood of my rantings directed at anyone being as caustic again are about the same as that of a pink truck claiming to be a blue bucket in disguise.

My writings are always comical, or so I believe, and I am sure you appreciate this, but it is about time perhaps that I wrote one entry dedicated to a particular person who is the reason why I have been able to be much more human as of late.

I have no intention of naming this person, but I do wish to recognise the massive input this person has had in making me a better person, albeit by the dulling of a rather abrasive edge of my personality. I am not always the easiest person to get along with. I make sarcastic comments which often cut deep, and my behaviour at times can be quite erratic. I must confess that I also do stupid things sometimes, and more often say stupid things that I do regret later. I could continue, but it will go against the grain to pay myself out when I am so perfect compared with everyone else.

So, Wonderful, thank you for being you.

To everyone else - the upcoming commentary will include the democratic presidential race (now over) and some more student politics. I will also write about my views on various issues ranging from my views on old music to why the beltway boys suck.

- wishy washy.

I have no idea what is going on in litigation

It seems as though the law school has recognised me for the talented chap I am and given me bad teachers for all my subjects. When I say bad, I do not mean they are poor communicators who know little to nothing about the subject matter, I mean they have a clear inability to teach. I can see quite clearly that their knowledge verges on guru-status, but it seems as though I get a lot from reading the materials and nothing from class.

I am reading on average, 100 pages per week per subject. Thats 400 pages per week total. Thats a lot of pages if you include note taking, etc. As a result, I am behind (yes, even the great Dr. G falls behind sometimes) in litigation, and I have no idea whatsoever about that particular subject. We have already had 3 classes too!

-I am going back to study.

Congratulations

This post has two points: The first is about my cricket team - we almost won our last game. Our two best batsmen, namely Mr Extras and Mr Handicap, scored over half of our runs... if only they could bowl.

The second point refers to my game of monopoly yesterday. I won't name any names, so you might just want to assume that these names are fake.

The game consisted of me, S-san, K-vin and A-drew. Of course I won this game. Sus-n and Andr-w merged so effectively they were one person with double everything, and Kev-n did well on his own, but not well enough.

It just goes to show that S-san makes bad deals, and will always try to help someone who is about to die, and in doing so will kill herself. You see, Sus-n would have won but she saved Andr-w who then took all her money in 'loans'. If S-san had bankrupted him like he was supposed to be, then she would've won. Instead, she almost went bankrupt herself after A-drew finally died.

- tsk tsk

Erection

Men can have huge erections if the blood flow is not consistent. If blood gets trapped in their little man, they will be permanently erect. This is also the case if the blood inflow is faster than the blood outflow. This can be genetic or due to an injury. If this is the case men may have an erection lasting several years.

There is a certain person in their late 30's who'd had a perpetual hard-on from an injury at age 14. He'd long enjoyed his locker-room reputation as a bit of a stud but his wife had started complaining. "Why do you have an erection all the time. Aren't I enough for you?"

My question is, how does this guy go swimming?

-nobody wants to hang around a guy with an erection in a locker room.

Name Merges

Often people form into groups for ease of identification, however, these groups have little to do with the individual name. Often these groups allow for more members and some form of continuous existence.

Three of my friends have merged themselves into one convenient, albeit unusual, name. This name is [ScT] PhiL. The group consists of SCT, namely Steve Cai and Christine Tran (although I am unsure as to whether it is "steve cai tran" or "steve christine tran") and Phillip Chin.

Now when people ask me questions such as 'who did you see at uni today?' I can easily reply 'I saw [ScT] PhiL'. The dynamic of the name itself and its history it quite interesting. Initially it was simply CT and Phil, however, one day Phil arbitrarily added another member, namely Steve Cai. I am unsure as to whether CT and Phil took a vote as to whether to add another member or not.

-Sometimes these little oddities provide much amusement.
