'Round the Reader
News has been kind of... blah... let's see what I can find:
General:
General:
- Mo "Imadinnerjacket" Ahmadinejad is releasing the British hostages "as a gift." Uh-huh... let's see if GB can be grateful enough for Mo's taste. I doubt anyone can be that grateful.
- I wonder if he really had problems with another kid at school, or if this was just a "suicide by cop" idea gone bad.
- More green lasers are being pointed at commercial aircraft. The question is "why?"
- The CCTVs in England are getting creepy.
- "Christian terrorists"??? How... (un)realistic. They're just the sort to take over a school and harm innocent children. Especially over such a (un)realistic scenario... idjits.
- I wonder what Sheriff Joe thinks about this. (He can't be too happy that people in his county are this frickin' stupid.)
- He had a prior conviction. Why was he even in this country so that he could kill two teenagers?
- BJU is right- gays don't have a problem with Christian universities; they have a problem with the Bible.
- This dingbat thought that the National Guard was a "humanitarian" organization. Yeah, buddy- that's why you learned how to shoot an M-16. You never know when that's going to come in handy while you fill sand bags or something. (Personally, I think this idiot should be stuck in Leavenworth for the duration- we really don't want him trying to defend our nation, do we?)
- Didn't they say the same thing about last year's hurricane season?
- Wow... let's just go against all the rest of the geological and archaeological data, shall we? (As one person commented in the news piece, it's a crisis for Egypt, and Egypt ignores crises.)
- Evidently, the Dems don't even want to hear the word "terror." I guess it scares them or something.
- McCain's "spot" is worrying some people. (I don't like his politics, but I pray his cancer has not returned. I wish that on no person.)
- If stupid people lay in front of your car as you try to leave, is that an invitation to run over them? (If they hate Rove so much, why weren't they trying to get him to leave rather than blocking his exit???)
- I'm not sure which is more disconcerting- that a pro-Khomeini imam is giving an invocation at the Texas State Senate, or that the senior Jewish Senator sponsored his visit.
- I thought Mormons were conservative... oh, wait... they're professors without a clue (redundant, I know) ... n'er mind.
- Bob Murray gets it- "Al Gore is more dangerous than Global Warming."
- William F. Buckley thinks it's beginning to feel like The Inquisition.
- Leonardo DiCaprio, on the other hand, thinks we're "on the brink" (and yes, it's all our fault).
- And, yet, despite all of this warming, it snows in April.
- The Lady Vols did it again.
- Memo to the Cards- y'all are the defending champs. At what point are you planning on acting like it?
- uh... JD... taking money is against the rules... unless you actually... you know... worked for it. Get over yourself.
- Is there anything Keith Richards won't snort? I guess not.
- She threw what on a student?
- In case you were wondering if you can get a DUI while riding a horse, the answer is "yes".
- But you can't get one driving a Zamboni.
- Scientists seem to think that hexagonal clouds are weird. Well, duh...
- "Negligent dancing"? I'm not sure who should be more embarrassed- the dude charged with dropping a woman on her head, or the woman who filed the charges.
- Those are some big rats. They need to bring in some puma or something.
- County Monaghan knows how to treat its elders.
