Breastfeeding…at 8.

Many people would find this a bit strange, but I don’t know. The thing is most of us all drink milk, cow milk. Cow milk that is really produced for baby cows. So at 8 years of age it is socially acceptable to drink cows milk, but not human milk? Maybe it is because her daughter gets it right from the source. Would it be any more acceptable if mom pumped the milk and stored it in a container in the frig?

I have wondered why there hasn’t been a market for human milk. Wouldn’t you rather drink milk meant for your species rather than a cow? I guess that would never happen with the amount of milk that is produced along with the impossibility of controlling the womens behavior and diet that would affect the quality of milk.

There are actually human milk banks, one being The Human Milk Banking Association of North America. Kinda like the blood bank, women donate their milk for infants that require it, but for whatever reason can not get the milk from their mother. So its there for those that need it.

I have added a bunch of vids recently, stuff that has interested me. But this one I really enjoyed even if it was not entertainment. I do not follow the celebrity ‘news’ except for watching The Soup once a week. The paparazzi, the blonde who just got out of jail, I think and the crap that goes with celebrity news I just don’t get and I don’t care.
Kudos to Mika Brzezinski for not reading crap that isn’t NEWS.

Joel Siegel vs Kevin Smith

I saw Clerks 2 and I have to say it was pretty darn good. In my opinion it was a better comedy than Clerks. But I don’t think that takes anything away from the first movie.

In Clerks 2 Pillow Pants was the scene I laughed the most at, but there were others that were roflmao funny, but apparently some didn’t see it that way.

Joel Siegel movie critic for Good Morning America didn’t stay long enough to view the entire movie to form his opinion.

At the 40 minute mark of the movie Siegel decided he had seen enough and leaves. As a movie critic this is kind of odd since a job of a movie critic is to watch the entire movie and write about it later. He walking out is really not newsworthy, but how he walked what has caused the buzz. Siegel said ‘Time to go!’ and let everyone around him know ‘This is the first movie I’ve walked out of in 30 fucking years!’ before exiting.

This during a private screening for the media. Dude gets to see free movies and gets paid to write about them, but acts childish when he sees things he doesn’t like? So bush league. Below are video and audio clips of Kevin Smith talking with Joel Siegel on Opie and Anthony. Siegel tries to defend himself and doesn’t realize he is actually arguing with Kevin Smith.

Headbutt heard around the world

I am not a big soccer, er futbol fan although I did catch some of the world cup action and it was pretty good. It would have been nice to see the US team advance farther, but eh, that’s the way it goes. I did see the infamous headbutt by France’s Zinedine Zidane’s on Italy’s Marco Materazzi. Here is my view on the situation, one dude that headbutts someone and gets a red card should not be named World Cup best player, no matter what was said to him. There has to be other players that contributed just as much with out physically assaulting another player. Two, its pathetic that they are getting lip readers to try to figure out what the guy said. Does it really matter? What ever happens to sticks and stones may break my bones, but names will never hurt me? Is it that bad that if Materazzi said something so bad that he should be penalized for it? This reminds me of the clip below with Kevin Stevens and Brian Trottier of the Pittsburgh Penguins giving some lip speak to Brian Bellows of the Minnesota North Stars.

Joe Biden and the Indians

Democrat Senator Joe Biden of Delaware made some comments caught on CSPAN that some have viewed as racist. Watch for yourself, what do you think?

As a politician what he said was not politically correct according to the PC police. But was it wrong? Personally I don’t think so. The point he was making was that many Dunkin Donuts and 7-11s are run by Indians. I do not think anyone believes that Dunkin Donuts or 7-11s being run by Indians is wrong. Some believe this ’stereotype’ hurts the image of Indians. I am a fairly thick skinned person so I don’t buy it. Any person that has half a brain knows that not all or the majority of insert group of people fit into whatever type of stereotype one is spouting.

What I think many people have an issue with, at least on the conservative side is the amount of hypocrisy in the media when comparing how Biden was treated vs. how Trent Lott was treated. I tend to agree with them. Biden who was talking to the camera brought up the stereotype in trying to make a point. Trent Lott who was attending Strom Thurmonds 100th birthday party said a few kind words for Thurmond that got turned into a big deal in the media forcing Lott to resign his leadership seat. Did Lott mention race or stereotypes at all? Nope.

I think that someone trying to say some kind words about someone at his birthday party is much different than someone in front of a camera campaigning for President bringing up a stereotype.
