Perez v. Miss California

I'm all for gay marriage and wished that Miss California was as well. But fair is fair. If Miss California Carrie Prejean's stance on gay marriage is enough to trash talk her, why isn't Perez Hilton taking on President Obama who has said that he "believe[s] that marriage is between a man and a woman."

He says it here again.

But he also says that he's for the separate-but-equal civil union. We know that separate but equal doesn't work.

NJ: Tackling the important issues of our times

Who cares about 9% unemployment, a pension system on the verge of collapse and the highest taxes in the country when there are important issues like Brazilian gential waxing for the state to be concerned with:

The N.J. state Board of Cosmetology and Hairstyling met Tuesday, [April 14, 2009,] in Newark to resume discussion of a ban on bare-it-all "Brazilian" waxing treatments, which is set to go into effect on April 25. Last month, after a public furor raised by salon owners, state Division of Consumer Affairs director David Szuchman said he could not support the ban and told the board "to begin an immediate review of the training necessary to safely provide this service, and to establish appropriate protocols and safeguards." Though Szuchman recommended the ban not be enforced during the board's review, there is a serious question whether salons' insurers will cover them for injuries. The ban was first proposed after two women were hospitalized for infections. At Tuesday's meeting, Rosemary Weiner, chairwoman of the Association of Salon and Spa Professionals in New Jersey, presented a position paper on how Brazilian waxing can be performed safely.

I saw this contest advertised in Sunday's newspaper.

There are a few pictures worth looking at.

Ahhhh, regulation

Only removing the snow from your windshield is a little pet peeve of mine, so I like this bill:

The New Jersey State Assembly Transportation, Public Works and Independent Authorities Committee has approved a bill that would make it an offense to fail to remove accumulated ice or snow from a motor vehicle prior to operation. Under the bill, A-1718, each driver has an affirmative duty to make all reasonable efforts to remove accumulated ice or snow from exposed surfaces of the vehicle, including the hood, trunk, windshield, windows and roof. Police could stop vehicles where they believe accumulated ice or snow poses a threat to persons or property, regardless of whether snow or ice is dislodged. Violators would be subject to fines of $25 to $75.

I just read this:

A newly filed federal court lawsuit charges a New Jersey hotel with negligent housekeeping and infliction of emotional distress for leaving a used condom in
fold-out sofa, where it was found and chewed by a toddler. Steven and Amy Wolf were on their way from Florida with their three young children to their home in Massachusetts when they stopped over at the Homewood Suites by Hilton in Mount Laurel. The next morning, Amy found their 22-month-old son Ryan choking on the condom, and by the time she extracted it, he "had ingested the contents," putting him at risk of contracting a "potentially life threatening, potentially fatal illness," they allege. The suit seeks a whole pile of money for emotional trauma to the family and the child, who is allegedly undergoing tests for possible infection with sexually transmittable diseases.

Maybe Amy should have been keeping an eye on her kid?
