Sex With Ducks, Home Theatre and Other Entertainment

[tcpip]

Pat Robertson has recently asked whether people who have sex with ducks are protected by hate crimes legislation; two young women engage take a satirical take with "sex with ducks". Both at Feminist Law Professors. It does remind me of a South Australian MP several years ago who argued that the decriminalisation of prostitution would lead to sex with ducks. What is it with ducks? Are they thinking of ducks with giant penises?

Recent addition to Casa di Lafayette/Hoehnhauss has been a video projector; a Hitachi XSGA CPSX5500. Several years ago these cost $10,000 and whilst the technology was superior to standard LCD, they were outrageously expensive; even a replacement globe costs over $1,000. So work bought three new projectors for their Access Grid room and I'm borrowing this old one. The resolution is very good, but the colour is a heavy shade of blue; hopeless for colour films, but excellent for our vast collection of black and white classic films (and caseopaya knows her classics) projecting a 'screen' of some 2m by 1.5m.

Other recent entertainment includes an excellent game on Friday eve of Insectes and Companie (PDF, French language, translation coming) run by Fabrice and on the Sunday session of GURPS Krononauts which involved Hernan Cortes capturing of Moctezuma in the middle of his own capital and his subsequent sortie of against the 1,000 Spanish soldiers sent to arrest him (Wikipedia summary available). Whilst I have little friendly to say about his imperialism (although they did put an end to religious human sacrifice) one cannot help but be thoroughly impressed by his strategic and tactical genius mixed with an extraordinary confidence in his own abilities.

Nice icon. It's a demon duck! You will be pleased to know that such creatures did exist, in a manner of speaking.

There is no social imperative for such action nor is there an acceptance of it, so they use it as scare-mongering of the ignorant.

Oh that's the slippery slope you see... Once gay marriage is accepted then who know what will come out the woodwork.

Of course, given that the gay rights movement has been around the principle of consenting adults deserve to be able to make their own decisions and deserve the same rights one would have to find a duck with adult human intelligence....

Maybe one day in the far future a love that dare not quack its name...

demon ducks rock!

and true but I don't realy think that there will ever be a time where society sees a need to allow people to marry animals or do anything else with them.
Nothing to gain from it but you never know what wackos may appear to push it (like PETA or Furries).

Maybe one day in the far future a love that dare not quack its name
And guess that I just found another song title for my all Duck Metal Band. :D \m/ ^_^ \m/

Chances are when we're at to that stage of genetic engineering that the human species will be a moot concept anyway.

You could always do a metal version of Garfunkle & Oate's "Sex With Ducks".. :)
