Nov. 10th, 2003 10:07 pmRandom thoughts, relating to politics and porn.
Porn, first: Canada needs a decent hardcore pornographic magazine. Really, the whole American Split Run thing has always got in my craw (and when we have guileless mooks like the crew at Realms representing' the ol' CA, it upsets me), and to see Hustler & Penthouse slapping a maple leaf on their cover, or an issue of Variations with a note saying "Special Canadian Issue" with NO ACTUAL CANADIAN CONTENT annoys.
The closest thing we get are a couple low wattage 'lads' mags (UMM and Razor, I'm looking at you while holding my nose shut!)
So, yes. Porn. How hard can it be? I have two ideas for titles: Chinook (a warmth coming from the north) or Beaver (because I have no sense of class or subtlety). Of course, hearing today that Bob Guccionne is stepping down as Penhouse CEO, or that Larry Flynt said "prihhhnt is dayud" or that Hef's woody needed corticle stimulators to get going.
I ignore such preposterousness.
In other ideas, Snra. Bitter and her co-workers have come to the conclusion that, since there's NO ONE running for politics in the 'ol Saug, I should go for it. So, four years of political activisim, a few lawn signs, and I'm in. How hard can it be?
God, this rocks.

Frankly, having such a visible and soundbite friendly platform would probably give you a big boost...
