Kanye West, San Diego sea lions and virginity Oh my!

PictureKanye West
On December 14, I wrote about Kanye West’s comments. He said that when he is doing a concert, he is “...putting my life at risk, literally” and “... this is like being a police officer or something, or like war or something.” (Check my archives) I won’t mention the number of service members who were killed in the line of duty, or firepersons, or police officers, but the following item caught my attention. According to the Committee to Protect Journalists, at least 70 journalists were killed on the job in 2013. Most of those deaths occurred in the Middle East. I am still trying to determine how many hip-hop singers died during a concert. Does anyone know? I think most are killed off duty. I hate to dispute someone as smart as Kanye, but I am beginning to think that hip-hop singing may not be in the top 100 of dangerous professions.    

This item also got my attention. A Saudi news agency says a judge in Mecca ordered 20 lashes for a man who accused his wife of not being a virgin when they married. Heaven forbid. The judge said he failed to provide evidence. Apparently, in Saudi Arabia, a woman is a virgin until proven otherwise.

Speaking of oddball news, two hotels in San Diego are suing the city because of the stench of sea lion waste is driving away customers and poses a health risk. Their lawsuit, says that the city hasn't done enough to deal with the problem as promised. One restaurant owner said the city hasn't come up with any solid plan. I think he meant solid waste plan. It made me wonder where San Diego sends their waste. Do they dump it into the ocean? I think that the sea lions are trying to get even. What goes around comes around. Heaven knows that San Diego had enough solid waste when Bob Filner was mayor. I guess there is still a lot of clean up needed. Here’s a hint: don’t use a fan to get rid of the odor.      

I have long favored a Stupidity Law. Whenever someone does something stupid and it is not covered under another law, they can be prosecuted under the Stupidity Law. It may be too late to stop Justin Bieber, Miley Cyrus, or Kanye West but it might be a deterrent in the future. We can only hope.
