Happily, their criteria is adaptable and their bar for 'finest' is set somewhere around 'pit under the privy' level.
REEDSBURG, Wis. (AP) - An elementary-school event in which kids were encouraged to dress as members of the opposite gender drew the ire of a Christian radio group, whose angry broadcast prompted outraged calls to the district office.

Students at Pineview Elementary in Reedsburg had been dressing in costume all last week as part of an annual school tradition called Wacky Week. On Friday, students were encouraged to dress either as senior citizens or as members of the opposite sex.

A local resident informed the Voice of Christian Youth America on Friday. The Milwaukee-based radio network responded by interrupting its morning programming for a special broadcast that aired on nine radio stations throughout Wisconsin. The broadcast criticized the dress-up day and accused the district of promoting alternative lifestyles.
Really, this is ridiculous. Are these shitheads are so afraid of their own gender orientation that they must screech out at a children's game? No wonder Christianity is getting such a nasty reputation.

What they're really trying to stop is the rise of another Monty Python/Kids in the Hall cross-dressing comedy sketch troupe.

About 40 percent of the student body dressed up Friday, Hayes estimated, with half portraying senior citizens and half dressing as the opposite sex.

Wow. Enticing children to accept the alternative lifestyle of a senior citizen. Have they no shame?




Uncertainty may make you uncomfortable. Certainty makes you ridiculous.

Why not question something for a change?

I think that 'gray' lifestyle is just that; a lifestyle. It is not like they are born that way.

Codgersexuality is not a choice! It's in the genes; science has proven it and you whippersnappers with all that hair and those teeth are nothing but a bunch of lousey codgerphobes. Fie! For shame! Get off my lawn!

But remember: "As you are, I once was; as I am, one day you shall be."

With my dad's side of the family's history of cardiac problems, I probably won't. I got maybe 20 more years left in me and that's if I take really good care of myself.

So there.
