This is an interesting image. Apparently stopitnow.org thinks that a picture of a father holding his daughter's hand is good imagery for pedophilia and not paternal love. I wonder what all the father's in the world think about that.

A local pub in Britain is getting around the soon to be enacted national smoking ban by becoming the official embassy of Redonda, a 1 square mile nation in the Caribbean. Brilliant!

The Supreme Court has reversed the decision of the Wacky 9th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals with regards to freedom of speech. The 9th found that a student should not be punished for his tacky "BongHits4Jesus" banner. The Supreme Court disagreed and said that schools should have the right to punish children for supporting the right to use drugs. Wow...I am boring myself writing this description...

And I thought husbands had it bad in the US. This is the story of a guy who was sent to jail because he waved at his kids. No...You read that correctly.

A man who works as a leasing agent for an apartment complex heard a gun shot, grabbed his gun and went to investigate. He saved a woman from bleeding to death. After being completely embarrassed by his heroism, the Arlington complex fired him. Good riddance to do gooders!

In another attempt to support the claim that there are jobs that Americans just won't do, the California GOP has hired an immigrant to perform the duties of state deputy political director. Does it count if he is Canadian?

This was lauded by the Chief Operating Officer of the California GOP, Michael Kamburowski, as demonstrating its support for fair immigration policies. Interestingly enough, no American's wanted his job either. Michael is actually Australian.

Why do I say this? Because to say otherwise could be construed as an "attack on the business" which is a no-no in Australia. Say goodbye to the Australian Criticism Industry.

"That Ron Paul guy thinks I should read about foreign policy. I think it's about time he gets whacked"

This was an interesting article which discusses the reasons behind black culture being incorrectly synonymous with hip-hop culture. I thought this line which uses the Chinese as a comparison was particularly insightful: "The cultural pressure for a middle-class Chinese-American to walk, talk and act like a lower-class thug from Chinatown is nil."

I wonder if girls swoon when they see a guy's ass hanging out of his jeans...Anyways, DELCAMBRE, LA is passing a law that will make it a $500 fine and 6 months in jail if you wear your pants like the guy in the photo.

I should make an Ironic category. 60% of ethanol factories violate federal or state environmental laws. Ethanol blows...just use waste oil and make bio-diesel, people!

A recent move to make smoking illegal in public places also includes the coffee shops of Amsterdam where tourists enjoy getting high legally. The Anne Frank museum's current pull of 2% of Amsterdam tourists is expected to comprise 90% by August '08.

To quote Nelson, "HA haaa!"

Update: The Sheriff who released her is a Scientologist. Was her early release some sort of recruitment attempt??

The Thundercats Movie is coming soon to a theater near you! Listen to these old outtakes for your listening pleasure.

The captain of the warship ignored the pleas of the captain of the hijacked vessel. Can you guess the nation of the ship that surrendered to apathy?

A spokane man was arrested for something and then proceeded to tell them he had a bomb in his pants. Thank god he wasn't caught on a plane or the new security checks would make you...well...you know.
