This'll be tough
Yep, still no linkywinky here. In today's Daily Cal:
They run a correction about the difference between 15 and 16 (hint: it's 1). I'll take credit for it.
Another Sex on Tuesday column with another boring message. This time, do something unusual. Wait, that was the boring message last time. And the time before that. Maybe SoT needs to add some spice to its own life.
And, in the actual-news world, Kriss Worthington wants an ordinance that allows people to serve on multiple commissions with overlapping duties. Currently, Jesse Arreguin is on the Housing Advisory Commission and the Rent Board. This is apparently a violation of something, and the obvious way to deal with violations is to obliterate the rule that makes it a violation.
The Property Owners Association, of course, doesn't like this idea, although the prez, Michael Wilson, gives the cryptic complaint:
Nobody wins when there are conflicts of interest.
The main problem with conflicts of interest was people taking advantage of the situation to benefit themselves, thus winning. However, this seems to have changed, and now nobody wins.
Arreguin also said the association's concern with the matter is not about conflict of interest, but rather the fact that he believes the association has a bias against the rent board.
As well it should, since the rent board has a bias against the association. Complaining about bias as a member of the rent board is the kind of laugh you can expect from Arreguitron.
Finally, Jessica Chan has a cartoon complaining about how Bush's efforts are causing terror to increase. So far, I haven't seen a whole lot of evidence for this, and generally those who claim it to be true are using the fact that they predicted it to be true as evidence. Still, at least it makes some mild sense, and isn't just a regurgitation of news, so it's an improvement.
