I saw it here… ensconced in an interesting article about loony fundamentalists and their loony ideas about Muslims. None of that was as interesting to me, though, as this sentence:
Most recently the terrorist-style murders by Major Nidal Malik Hasan in Fort Hood, TX and the imprisonment of Maryam Rustampoor and Marzieh Amirizadeh, two Iranian women [...]

Is that they report these kinds of things as if they were actually newsworthy. I suppose they do it because all the real news is covered in the larger city papers. But still… Does anyone really, really care if fluffy gets back home (aside from fluffy’s owners)?

Oba-messianism continues unabated even though he’s not really been able to deliver on many (if any) of his messianic campaign promises.
Yet today, he’s set to be the ‘healer’ when he visits Fort Hood.
People across the country seem to have placed all their eggs in the Obama-is-messiah-basket, still lauding him at every opportunity (and especially the [...]

If memory serves, in fact, most of JimLin’s photos of skankified women-folk were taken in Rio. So why do they have such loose standards there and such rigid standards elsewhere?
A Brazilian university has expelled a woman who was heckled by hundreds of fellow students for wearing a short, pink dress to class — publicly accusing [...]

But what the devil is wrong with you Brits?
Via Alexa. I can understand why I’m beloved by the Kiwis and the Americans and the Canadians… our common heritage (plus, those people understand me). And I’m flattered to rank so well in Israel too (which is a bit surprising given my criticism of Israeli government policy [...]

In spite of a recent study which suggests that they in fact are, I have to contend otherwise. I actually know 4 people who have Iphones and all of them are upstanding, unsmutty, good and decent human beings.

He’s been on bread, walls, tree stumps, liver and onions, and now, the window of a Tennessee man’s pick up truck. See for yourself!
