You know, I just... I woke up, and I looked in the mirror, and I thought, hey, what's with all the sin? I need to change. I'm... I'm dirty. I'm, I'm bad with the... sex and the envy and that, that loud music us kids listen to nowadays.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

As a counterpoint to all the Bush posts - a video of a cat climbing into an empty fishbowl: [link]

Kinda' amazing that it, um, fit.

That story is just so fucking sad. Poor family.

Oh no. I guess there wasn't really much chance of any other outcome after all this time, but still.

The problem with Vietnam as a competitor is that Vietnam was a strategically marginal area.

That makes Vietnam worse in a sense, but you've got a good point. From a strategic standpoint a disaster in the Middle East trumps a disaster in Southeast Asia.

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."

A San Francisco man who got lost in the snowy wilderness with his family nearly two weeks ago was found dead Wednesday in the mountains, authorities said.

Damn.

Art Crawl!!!

tommyrot - that's a hilarious video. I have to admit that my cat Tanuki LOVES getting into small spaces. . . although I've never tried to get her to fit into a fishbowl.

ION,

WASHINGTON - Mary Cheney, the openly gay daughter of Vice President Dick Cheney and wife Lynne, is pregnant, according to a published report. Mary Cheney, 37, and her partner of 15 years, Heather Poe, 45, are "ecstatic" about the baby, due in late spring, The Washington Post reported in Wednesday's editions, quoting an unnamed source close to the couple.

...

The Post quoted the source close to the family as saying the circumstances of Mary Cheney's pregnancy will remain private.

Don't look at me....

Greece's financial crisis threatens to take down all of Western civilization - a civilization they themselves founded. A rather tragic irony - which is something they also invented. - Jon Stewart

The problem with Vietnam as a competitor is that Vietnam was a strategically marginal area. Iraq was a strategic error in the Middle East. (You could argue that Vietnam was morally worse. Vietnam deaths numbered in the millions where our best guess as to how many Iraqi lives we've wasted is around 700,000. But the Iraq war is not over, and the number killed accelerates every month. So it could yet surpass Vietnam as a moral failure too.)

If this ACTUALLY starts WWIII Bush totally wins.
