Cheney or Kirkpatrick? You decide. Unbelievable. Simply unfathomable. The depth to which the Vice President of the United States is willing to sink just never ceases to amaze me. The latest came on the very day that the U.S. death toll in Iraq reached 4,000.

I just don't know what to say. A woman in Florida is apparently under the impression that the best way to deal with a two-year-old throwing a tantrum is to spray her down with a high-pressure sprayer at a car wash. Unbelieveable. And guess what...mom's pregnant again!
Here's the article and the surveillance video:

Watch Out For Snakes. You never know where you're going to find them. And this time I don't mean the slithery, little reptiles who eat mice. I'm talking about the snakes who lurk everywhere on the internet just waiting for you to make one, stupid mistake so they can pounce on you and grab your money or your stuff. It almost happened to me again yesterday during a Craigslist transaction.
myfreeimplants.com? Yes, it's exactly what you think it is. We had an interesting guest on the show last night. Her name is Karla-Rae Morris, and she's earned herself a free pair of breast implants by becoming "friends" with a bunch of men on the website www.myfreeimplants.com and encouragingthem to donate money to buy her a set of bolt-ons. And it worked! Two men even ponied up $1500 apiece toward her cosmetic surgery.

Watch your frickin' mouth! Yes, ladies and gentlemen, the oversensitivity brigade is at it again. Now it seems not only are you precluded from the use of foul language, you're not even able to refer to profanity. Case in point comes from Altoona, PA where a convenience store by the name of Sheetz is marketing a brand-new, fried chicken sandwich under the name "Crispy Frickin' Chicken."

A Mighty Pretzel is Our Lord Okay, so I'm not a religious guy. Let's get that straight right here at the beginning. But of all the buffoonery and ridiculousness I've seen in the name of religion, this recent spate of grocery store iconography has to make the top-10. It's right up there with psychic surgery and crystal spinning.

Connections It's amazing where you find them. A funny thing happened this morning when I checked my email. It turns out that the iPod I listed for sale last night on eBay had indeed sold while I was sleeping. So I logged in to check the details of the transaction and noticed that the buyer's 'handle' was a man's name, but it didn't match the buyer's real name on his shipping info.
