So does that mean the Pope is Hitler?

Even worse, a socialist Hitler.

ION, these are real:

Oh, for FUCK'S sake.

Heh. The "Don't drink and drive" thing reminds me of when my sister and I were kids, and we got all the "don't drink and drive, and don't get in a car if the driver has been drinking" stuff at school. One night, our family went out for pizza, and my dad got a beer. He drank maybe half of it, with probably three slices of pizza. We get to the car to go home, and my sister and I both completely refused to get in the car if he was driving. No way, no how, he'd had a beer and we would NOT get in a car when the driver had been drinking. My parents decided that appeasing us would be easier than trying to explain "Half a beer with a lot of food doesn't make you too drunk to drive" to elementary school kids, so my mom drove home.

College football weirdness: Only one end zone to be used at Wrigley game

In response to the fact that the back-middle of the east end zone was just a foot from a thickly padded wall, the Big Ten has decided not to use that end zone for any offensive plays:

1. All offensive plays will head toward the West end zone, including all extra points and all overtime possessions.

2. All kickoffs will be kicked toward the East end zone.

3. After every change of possession, the ball will be repositioned for the offense to head toward the West end zone.

4. As a result of a coin toss held by the conference office Friday morning, Illinois will occupy the West team bench in the first half and Northwestern will occupy the West team bench in the second half and for all overtime periods.

MY FAVORITE MID-90S BAD ASS JESUS COMIC

Jesus pulls Himself off the cross to kick some ass!

I just made my final car payment--yay!!!

I'm a little tired of people calling for either 1) a boycott of flying or 2) a protest at security.

1) I cannot avoid flying. It's lovely that Amtrak and driving are an option for you. If I give up flying, I'm stuck in Eastern Washington.

2) If you are in front of me at security and try to stage a sit-in? I will lose my shit.

Nice job, Kathy!!

My workaholic coworker is taking next week off, and she keeps talking about it like it's really a week off, which makes me laugh. It's like she's forgotten that the rest of us will only be here for 2.5 days. Maybe 2.7, but still.

Am right with Dana. Also? I have no doubt these same people will be UP IN ARMS when there is a terrorist attack on a commercial train in America and they will be calling for SECURITY and pointing fingers.

Congrats Kathy!
