Things I've Learned

Any quality toilet paper will have a picture of a cute baby on the front, even though babies don't use toilet paper.

Some chewing gum brands, when chewed, might result in sex with your boyfriend while your parents watch exitedly.

SUV drivers probably intentionally park in areas that lead to blind spots at intersections.

You can't accuse Israel of doing something without also accusing all the followers of Judaism.

Never trust a white man with no visible eyelids.

NBC really, really hopes My Name Is Earl is a success. Otherwise they wouldn't have a commercial for it every six minutes. And a pop up when the commercial ends. In case you already forgot.

Christians converted more countries and cultures to their cult than any other religious group.

Some Bin Laden Brothers Tipped Off Two NASA Research Scientists In 1987 About U.S. Government Plans To Cause 9/11.

Astronomers Find Another Planet in the Solar System

Jessica Simpson is weird and icky.

Few things will bring an instant smile on my face than a song with piccicato violin.

BEACHED SQUID
I have no idea where or when this photo was taken. It's really disturbing, isn't it? I don't think the squid crawled up on shore to sunbathe. I found it on this page at a web site called Yatahonga. Maybe some of you who speak French can shed some light on this by translating some of the words on the web page with the photo.

Take an armed contingency of, oh, say 800, toColorado City, Arizona and Hildale, Utah, and liberate the women and children there.
Now, please.
The abuses there continue and are numerous. Yet little if anything is being done. The police are actually controlled by wanted "prophet" Warren Jeffs.

All in the name of their religion.
It's nice that we are liberating people in other countries, but how about RIGHT TF HERE??

Q: What do you get when you cross a giraffe and a monkey?

A: I'm sorry, I can't think about that right now because I'm too busy wondering why Congress hasn't launched an official investigation into Bush lying to the American public about WMDs and leading us into a war under false pretenses. Tell you what—as soon as I solve that little riddle, I'll get to work on your little genetic experiment.

The Christian Paradox

How a faithful nation gets Jesus wrong
"Asking Christians what Christ taught isn’t a trick. When we say we are a Christian nation—and, overwhelmingly, we do—it means something."

Shame, really. So tired of the "christian nation" label.

"When George Bush says that Jesus Christ is his favorite philosopher, he may or may not be sincere, but he is reflecting the sincere beliefs of the vast majority of Americans."

Just had to put the word "vast" in there to drive the sorry point home.

Rock Star

Ty.
And Mig. And Jordis.
JD once again made an ass off himself, and everybody else pretty much sucked.
I wish they would just vote off three at a time.

Here's a thought about JD.
Since he knew he couldn't pull of the song, ya think he called up his sister to get the emotional vote?

The UnMuseum - Oak Island Mystery

I found it interesting.
Some theories suggest that the structures built on Oak Island may have been hundreds, perhaps even thousand of years old when they were discovered in 1795. They may have been built by Vikings visiting the New World, or by the native Micmac people who lived in the region before the Europeans appeared.

I don't yet know when the show aired, I hope to catch a replay of it, but apparently Sarah thinks Sock Dreams is a Gem!

Rock Star

JD.
Ugh.
Right now,I hope he screws up We Are The Champions royally.

First, he convinces Jordis to let him have the song.
When he realizes he can't sing it properly, he tries to trade back. What a frekking tool.
But INXS said they don't care what happens in the background, they're just looking for the best singer.
Wouldn't it be bitter irony if they stuck to that, JD wins, the go on tour, but nobody shows up because the lead singer is a giant prick and everybody hates him.

Nah, I can't attest for the taste of the world's youth anymore. Maybe his shnit will go over big with the teen girls and confused boys.

We were watching a new show called Mindfreak, featuring street magician Criss Angel. That theme song he wrote and sang, and his appearance should give you an idea of how over-the-top he can be, but his magic is impressive.
Someone, after having seen a levitation trick, said he could kick David Blaine's ass.
I'd seen a few of Blaine's illusions, but tonight there was a show on TLC called Magic Man.

After comparing the two, I'd say Blaine could kick Angel's ass.
Blaine, in his unassuming demeanor, manages not only to pull off amazing illusions, but he actually freaks out the onlookers to the point of discomfort.

With Angel, they laugh in amazement. With Blaine, they are dumbfounded beyond words.

Google tracks Hitler to San Diego

Naturally, this being Adolf Hitler, he couldn't just bunker down in some suburban duplex and get on with writing his memoires. Oh no, when you've commanded the Thousand Year Reich you at least want an office complex in the shape of a swastika, courtesy of the Albert Speer school of architecture.
