As a former regular of CHP, I laughed out loud when I heard your name on Go! this morning. Nice work!

Yes, I just turned it on earlier without checking the blog so I was completely surprised.

Some guy named Joey from the audience. Yeah, whatever. Works for Microsoft as an evangelist? (No way!) AND he busks with an accordion? (Way!)

(BTW, Steven Page is SO going to kick your ass if he ever meets you.)

As it’s been over 2 years, is it too late to remind you? Damn, I’m curious.

So the symbol on both signs (that’s not a person in a wheelchair) is what, a diaper with a safety pin behind it? A) it doesn’t look very much like a safety pin B) who uses safety pins on diapers anymore?

When I saw that symbol, I only noticed it on the Men’s sign. My best guess was it was a penis behind a banana-hammock-style swimsuit. Sort of a universal symbol for “you’re doing it wrong.” Then I saw the same symbol on the Women’s sign and was at a complete loss.

Regarding the “Child Friendly” thing, maybe you can change a diaper in both but only the women will be friendly about it

Wouldn’t the Diaper symbol (present on both signs) indicate the presence of a baby-changing station?

Donald Simmons: It's the logo for Child-Friendly Calgary. I assume it means that there's a baby-changing station in the bathroom.

Call me an idiot, but what does the “sunset” symbol on the Cowgirl bathroom sign mean? I’ve been racking my brains here.

wow the USA had pretty good ideas like To fortify the politico-economic unity of the Western Hemisphere, the U.S.A. shall promote and assist the unification of South America into a well organized, democratic, federated “United States of South America”.
Where was this publish? in a newspaper or encyclopedia back in 1942 and who was the author?

Well, you know education has its many bright moments, scientists predict 2012 will reap catastrophic events like never before, plundering humanity into a paranoia. JW’s preach from the bible 24/7 about a time in which the nations will go into a paranoia — The Great Tribulation. What if they were right? Im conscientious about this very much.

Comment on Chris Taylor on the Air Force One Fly-By by GmachGforce

The airplane seen is the equivalent of Airforce 1, there are 5 of these advanced aircraft and only 1 in the air at any one time, they are a completely different boeing aircraft design and specially modified.
If the US admin or joint cheifs, president etc get “taken out” the intire US command and its current empire can still exist no matter where on this planet from anyone of these aircraft. Its the ultimate paranoia. Need more info check out Aaron Russo!
