Truth, Justice, And Kicking The Hell Out Of Iraqis
If there’s one thing that this country needs significantly more of — aside from banal trivialities like health care, education, and shock therapy for reality show creators — it’s presidential cock waggling. I simply can’t get enough of it, how ’bout you? Luckily I think George has been informed that he should provide his avid [...]
Protect Companies, Screw Individuals
Let me see if I have this right… while everyone is trying to limit punitive damages in civil suits against companies and doctors, it’s open season on individuals caught trying to bilk companies. Yeah, I think we’ve almost succeeded in having the most ass-backwards litigation atmosphere in recorded history. We should certainly be proud.
“Anyone can use it!”
Yes, that’s Dubya. Yes, that’s a “Segway”:http://www.segway.com/. Yes, he “fell off”:http://story.news.yahoo.com/news?tmpl=story&u=/030612/170/4dnhg.html. I really can’t add any more than that. UPDATE: It should be noted that his second attempt was much more successful. Besides, if it was Clinton he probably would’ve broken something.
Sounded Fun At The Time
Let the Darwin Awards candidates “begin”:http://www.southbendtribune.com/stories/2003/05/12/local.20030512-sbt-MARS-A2-Semihitsmen_riding.sto. == One man was killed and another injured when they were riding a Ranch King lawn mower on Indiana 15 at 2:37 a.m. Sunday and were struck by a semi-truck. … The mower had no lights or reflectors, police said, and was traveling down the center of Indiana 15.

WHAT THE HELL IS THAT?!
Somehow, I don’t know how, — perhaps I’ve watched too many movies, have an overactive imagination, whatever — I just know that this can’t end well. Yes, you may click on that for a bigger version in its own window. If you’re anything like me you are praying to everything that’s holy that that clock [...]

“Free” Market Economy, Take 2
“Apple”:http://www.apple.com yet again gives the consumer what they say they want. Consumers have been saying they don’t want to pay the high cost of albums for just a few songs, that they want to do what they want with the purchased music (burn it to CD? Save it on a personal audio device? Play it [...]
Breastfeeding == Porn
Sometimes I love being an American. Bunch of hypocritical, puritanical imbeciles. Go on, “read”:http://dallasobserver.com/issues/2003-04-17/feature2.html/print.html. As the soon-to-be-father of a new daughter, I am livid that we have sunk so low as a country for such a thing to actually occur. I dare someone to try to pull this on me.
