Frank Chow: Asian- American Political Pundit

If you check my "currently reading", I just finished a classic mash-up of Green Arrow and Green Lantern . The comic was written in the 70's, it is full of cheesy dialog, corny stereotypes and a version of Hal Jordan that I am glad does not exist anymore. The work, however is still relevant. As I peeled through the pages, I was pleasantly surprised to find out Green Arrow was a full on dirty hippie fighting against the social injustices in America. He brings to light for Green Lantern (pun intended) the various wrongs going about in America at the time. Whether it was racial, societal or economical; Green Arrow is a champion for progressive issues throughout. He fights with Green Lantern to expose a land deal upending Native American rights, he exposes a landlord who abuses the poor and conducts backdoor deals, and he proves the importance of workers' rights in a small mining town just to name a few. It is only reasonable to conclude that health care reform is somethin...

Teh above is a video of Brand New playing a new song live, the idiot yelling "take your shirt off" probably finds himself funny. What a quick weekend! Saw the Hangover, solid it also included my favorite comedian Zach Galifinakis, so perhaps I was bias, dude is funny. The weather is perfect today in Chi and I gots tons of work to ignore. YES! For those of you in the know Tuesday we will be participating in Drinking Liberally come on out and enjoy the company of socialist, pinko, democrats drinking in unity. Anybody know a good doctor or a good health care provider? I am fed up with mine. Here are your highlights: Ezra Klein examines, What is the Stimulus Doing? and the Human Cost of Cuts Green Lantern is Ryan Reynolds - phew dodged a bullet, better than JT being the Green Lantern, Reynolds will make a decent Hal Jordan, but he would have been a better Flash N. Korea's Kim Jong Il is well ill Palin might be starting something I can believe in , splitting the Republican Pa...

The Green House of the Future part dos by William McDonough + Partners, apparently they take their design inspiration from Trees. Ohh how stupid can this be? I mean if I learned anything, trees cause pollution ( thank you Ronald Reagan ) and this design does not look anything like a TREE . It actually looks like a Pringle . Which is cool, but dude once you pop you can't stop and being Green is all about conservation . FAIL. This reminds of that one time I was in high school and some douche nugget tried to explained to me being a male cheerleader was just like being on the football team on the bench. Except you yell in unison and get to look up girls skirts which somehow made him just as manly as my bench warming days at the ole high school with a total of .9 minutes of playing time. EPIC FAIL. I touched the football dude. Can you deal with that? If doesn't look like a tree, smell like a tree, taste like a tree. It looks like a Pringle. Got it? Good. Real deal tree house here...

The Green House of the future by Rios Clementi Hale Studios, this looks like a fail. Designed by a super hippie who thinks mushrooms are magic and weed is the plant that dreams are made of, this house is the equivalent of Jeff Goldblum's makeover in "the Fly." I don't care what the science is, this house is stupid. It's like someone snorted coke and then saw the upside down tomato garden in your home ad and snooooooooooooooooort GREEN HOUSE. Scene: guy getting into taxi. Taxi Driver: Where ya headed buddy? Green House Resident: The house that looks like nature vomited on it. End Scene. Question to the designer, if your client has allergies or can be stung by a bee and die, how practical is your "edible home"? Answer: It's death trap, now go listen to Pink Floyd and try again. FAIL. I am Frank Chow and I approved this message.

Green Lantern of the Justice League of America is leading a group of superheroes to push green legislation . Gathered in conference with the Green Lantern are notable heroes Martian the Manhunter , Savage Dragon , and the Hulk , the Green Lantern hopes to persuade Congress with their actions not their powers. The superheroes started today by planting over a million trees in the backyards of environment haters across the country. The plantings included former CEO’s and CEO’s of oil companies , dirty coal , radio hosts and congressional environmental deniers. In a radical move Green Lantern actually put a green prison box filled with cattle around the home of John Boehner . “This is about Earth and we superheroes are no different than any other being except I have the luxury of being able to leave this planet. Some can’t. Well two of us, but still the cause is worthy. Justice is green and green is justice!” said the Green Lantern. Some people are worried about the aggressive “hero” t...
