The Committee To Figure Out Who Fucked Up

I couldn’t help laughing… But I couldn’t help wondering why Jefferson was in Boston, too. That’s just how my mind works.

(But there’s a fine spray of water on my monitor, if it helps.)

Villagers organise donkey wedding to appease rain god

Sure, why not? When you get down to it, it’s not any dumber than pretending a cracker is Jesus’ flesh… Apparently, things must be tough in the Tamil Nadu. Normally, they only do a frog wedding, but a current drought called for extreme measures.

washingtonpost.com: Bush Warned to Be Speedy on Amtrak Funding

He must hurry! If Amtrak shuts down, it would be a catastrophe! In some way I’m not really clear about!

I don’t see why Amtrak can’t be subsidized by the government. Heck, cars are — they aren’t much good without roads, are they? But a lot of Amtrak routes not only aren’t profitable, they aren’t even worthwhile. Passenger train service should concentrate on the northeast, where it’s practical. And who knows, some day it might even make money.

Report: Five Israeli Settlers Killed (washingtonpost.com)

And, oh yeah, this includes a mother and three children. The Israeli opressors! (According to Charles Johnson, the original of the story didn’t even mention that children were killed.)

Court bans execution of retarded

Good for the court. No bonus points for guessing which three “justices” voted to keep killing retarded people.

Northpinellas: Llama attacker gets three years in prison

This guy really needs to work through his feelings about llamas; he appears to have a love/hate relationship with them, mostly hate. The details are really icky and I won’t write of them.

Counterfeit $100 recovered in Reform

1. Slow news day, huh?

2. “Counterfeit” is hardly the right word. It was apparently a photocopy. If you’re dumb enough to fall for that, you probably deserve to be ripped off.

Quail Fighting Popular in Afghan City

My grandfather raised quail for awhile, and let me say, they don’t strike me as the most suitable bird for fighting. I mean, they can give you a decent peck, but that’s about it.

State stiffens over sale of gelatin liquor

A company out of Ohio is marketing prepackaged Jell-O shots, in snack packs similar to those you’d find pudding in. They call them “Zippers”, and deny categorically that they are marketing them to youngsters. The Alabama Alcoholic Beverage Control Board had previously agreed to allow their sale in the state, but has reversed itself.

Bush Campaigns For American Fitness

The President doesn’t get it; if Americans aren’t fat and lazy, the terrorists have won!
