A couple of things to talk about here today

Yeah I know that I need to come up with better subject header lines, but hey these things are last minute and I really can't come up with anything prior to that in the end. Besides as you all can see below this message, there's been more added to the signature that I always include on every email that I happen to write here, basically I've added all of the links to the pages that I'm personally working on, however the only problem that I happen to have right now is that other than people checking them out, no one is either commenting on them or "Like"ing them at all (and I know that I haven't gotten anything posted on Dreamworld in ages, but I am working on that one as well).
 
Now there are a few things that I'm also going to be covering on the political side of my blogs, but first thing is first, and that's dealing with a headline that I actually caught on the hard copy version of The Fresno Bee a couple of days ago, the only thing was at the time I just couldn't write anything on it since I was dealing with other things at the time which has been dealt with now.
 
Well this story (and here's the link for the on-line article) is dealing with a teacher that decided to show a more (hell how do I put this) "graphic" sex ed video in class (hell I'll use the Bee's head line on this one): "Video in Fresno State sexuality class spurs dispute". Now from what you can read in the article, the tape was showing off more than what was normally taught in a sex ed class (doesn't matter what the grade level happens to be, they all keep repeating the same crap over and over again). Thing is and don't get me wrong on this either, but I honestly believe that teaching more to the students instead of trying to teach them something that won't work (like Bush Jr's "Abstinence Only" programs) or things that are so out of date and saying that everything in the videos still work is crap. I'm sorry to say but going from VHS to DVD and not updating the content on the video is not the same thing as actually updating the information on the program, but hey that's me.
 
Now the kicker is the fact that living in the Valley here, we're talking this place is so bloody religious that anything being taught beyond the "Missionary Position" is considered a bloody sin (and besides in that position it helps the guys out only and doesn't next to nothing for the women at all (ladies please feel free to comment if you would like) and that's just from what I've seen of personal experience with my own wife). However to say that the video that was shown was considered porn is just bloody and completely wrong, hell the best ones to actually teach (and I'm starting to think that they should be teaching the class in the first place) a sex ed class would be porn stars, since it would be them that not only had the best experience at the entire thing, but they could also explain things that teachers these days can't explain at all (or just don't want to explain at all period).
 
However there's no chance in hell that any school would ever allow a lady (or a guy) porn star to actually teach anything dealing with a sex ed class at all, after all no school district is ever going to allow something like that at all, and even though all school are supposed to be keeping religion out of the school it's not really happening at all in the least. I mean with a lot of the older administrators that are there, they are slowly trying to get religion into the class, however the only problem that they happen to have is that the law is preventing them, namely that of the 1st Amendment (yeah that little kicker in their ass right there).
 
Now on the entertainment side of everything, there's a couple of things here, the major (though I believe that they're both major) one being the engagement of Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie. Now even though they happen to be engaged, that really doesn't mean anything at all in the least since a couple can be engaged for years till they actually get married. Plus I have a feeling that these two were only getting engaged to make their kids happy and that was about it, after all I personally believe that they aren't going to till the church at long last losing its battle and everyone can be able to marry. Now personally I love the idea both of them getting engaged and wanting everyone to be able to marry first, however I also know the truth in the matter and the fact that both of them will be getting married before everyone has that chance. Either way, this is going to be the one thing that people on the entertainment side are going to be talking about for ages to come.
 
The last thing here before I head over to the politics side of everything is the new movie that's going to be coming out in a couple of weeks, the greatest lesson that DC and Warner Bros. could ever get and that's the Avengers movie that's coming out May 4th. This is honestly looking to be like the hotest movie of the year by far, after all it's got several movies characters that are being combined into on major movie and the ticket sales are already through the roof and into space BIG TIME!
 
I mean the one thing other than an Avengers Marvel movie that everyone has been asking for is a Justice League movie that covers everyone along with giving the characters their own movies as well. However it seems to be Warners long time excuse that they don't want to do it for fear that it will detract from the characters getting their own movies. Well the one major problem that Warner happens to have is that even before they get a chance to make a Justice League movie, they're killing the characters and the back story before they even have a chance to make anything that anyone would like. Besides as I've been writing this, I've also been checking on Fandango.com to see what the times and prices are going to be for release day, and so far there's only four times open, and they're all for 3-D only right now and nothing else (yeah I've been trying to get the 2-D side since I can't afford the 3-D side with the $4 extra price tag. However that so far is not happening at all, and it also means that Regal is bringing in the cash for a 3-D only movie right now. Just wish that I could actually get to see it.
