Props and Slops: February 9-15

IN MEMORIAM

• Corky Trinidad, longtime Honolulu Star-Bulletin editorial cartoonist. (February 13)  I will definitely miss his cartoons and his wit, which never lost its edge.

Now, here are the top and bottom performers as I saw them this week:

PROPS

• Thom, a frequent commenter and local bus driver, for this comment about my David Archuleta post:  You know Cap…welcome to married life a little early….:) Thanks for the chuckle and the good advice!
• Our State House for passing the civil unions bill that would extend married couples’ rights to same-sex partners.  Jerry Burris even discusses how this could be good for the economy,
• Google for bringing additional features (add, edit, sort, filter) to Google Documents on mobile devices.  Prior to this, the documents were read-only.
• Noor Al-Fayez for being the first woman appointed to the Saudi Council of Ministers, by King Abdullah.

SLOPS

• The people behind http://draftstormy.com/ (LSFW, especially if someone recognizes her).  Just to clarify, Stormy Daniels is a porn star.  I didn’t know whether to laugh or cry when I saw this news.  Not that I want to trample on a fellow citizen’s right to run for office.  But…as if there wasn’t enough fodder to use against our elected officials already!

PROP AND SLOP OF THE WEEK

• Prop of the Week:  Everyone on who helped plan, supported, and/or attended the Honolulu Twestival. And according to Ryan Ozawa, it raised over $7,000!  Good job everyone.  And to the Hawaii Superferry who donated a trip for 2 and a car, which my cousin won.
• Slop of the Week:  Conservative commentator and author Ann Coulter for being under investigation for voter fraud in Connecticut. Apparently, she voted in Connecticut while living in New York City – which is illegal.  Disclaimer (in the style of COPS):  All suspects are innocent until proven guilty in a court of law.  Bad Ann, bad Ann, watcha gonna do, watcha gonna do when they come for you? Click here if you didn’t get that.

That’s it for this week.  Be sure to visit next week for another edition of Props and Slops, my favorite feature on Capsun’s Corner.

Mahalo!
