- Attorney General Alberto Gonzales lied. I’m so shocked. Last week he said he was not closely involved in the firing of U.S. attorneys. Email messages released last night show that he approved the firings.
- There is going to be a third TV series. I’ll be honest. I didn’t even know there was a second.
- A Wal-Mart in nearby West Virginia had a health scare. Evidently someone plugged up a toilet at Wal-Mart causing an “an overflow of sewage”. That’s not what caused the health scare. This was West Virgina after all. It’s going to take more than the scent of raw sewage to rile people up. The problem was that the Wal-Mart associates (employees) tried to clean up the mess with some kind of bleach and chlorine mixture that resulted in noxious fumes. The store had to be evacuated and 7 people taken to the hospital.
- State lawmakers from the
hillbilly western part of Maryland are angry over the fact that delegates from other parts of the state are constantly trying to ban bear hunting. They have come up with a stupid way of dealing with it. They call it the Maryland Share the Bear Law. They want to capture bears in western Maryland and release them in other parts of the state. More populated parts of the state.
- Speaking of bears, if saving a baby polar bear that has been abandoned by it’s mother is wrong, I don’t want to be right. Animal activists want to kill the bear. Have they seen the cute pictures of it chewing on a soccer ball?

- The person that created the anti-Clinton “Vote Different” YouTube ad styled after the old Apple 1984 ad has been identified. He used to work for the company that does Internet work for the Obama campaign. He wrote a post over at at The Huffington Post explaining his motivation for the ad. Big shocker, he is an Obama supporter. Who would have thought that? He also explains that he made the ad without his employer’s knowledge. In fact he was fired for making the ad.
- Elizabeth Edwards once again has cancer. It’s incurable, but it’s treatable. I’m not sure I understand that, but I usually don’t understand medical things until I see it in an episode of House. Her husband John Edwards will continue his campaign for the Democratic Presidential nomination. You would think with his wife facing such a serious medical problem, he would want to focus on her instead of his pursuit for third place.
- Once again, that longed haired hippy Sanjaya Malakar escaped getting kicked off American Idol. When will he finally get voted off the show? Do I have to pick up the phone and actually vote for someone? Someone who’s name is not Sanjaya? His singing was so bad this week that he actually made a retarded girl cry. If this keeps up, I will begin to doubt the musical integrity of the show. I do not like Sanjaya Malakar.
- Indianapolis Colts coach Tony Dungy has weighed in on the topic of gay marriage. He says that he and Jesus are against it. That’s ironic, because many gay people in committed relationships think the Colts suck.
- Apple launched their newest product today. It’s something called Apple TV. Oddly enough, they chose not to put a pretentious lowercase “i” in front of the name. Apple claims that it will enable you to put audio and video content from your iTunes library to your widescreen hi-def TV. It will allow you to watch movies, TV shows, podcasts, and
porn pictures from your computer. It uses wireless to sync up to 6 computers to your TV. It costs $299. If you have a video iPod, you can simply buy a patch cable from Apple for less then $20 that allows you to basically do the same thing.
- The SCI FI Channel has increased its episode order for the fourth season of Battlestar Galactica to 22 up from the original 13. If you ever wanted to realize just how much the last ten plus years of Star Trek sucked, watch an episode of Battlestar Galactica.
- Sean Hannity first challenges the mayor of Salt Lake City to a debate on Iraq and impeachment, then chickens out. Hannity being the douche that he is then blamed the mayor as being the one to back out.
- Speaking of Sean Hannity, has anyone ever seen Hannity and Nathen Lane at the same time? Those two look so much alike that I’m starting to think they might be the same person. Look here to see a comparison.
- A study shows that 75% of all Blogspot blogs are spam blogs. That’s a shame because many of them are very good.

- The chief muckety muck at computer security company Kaspersky claimed that Microsoft Vista’s User Account Control (UAC), is so annoying that most users will simply turn it off. He said that without UAC, Vista will be less secure than Windows XP SP2. I don’t know. I think most Windows users are used to dealing with annoying things so they might just leave it on.
- This is probably the best anti-war sign I’ve seen. Not that I have seen all that many of them.
- I’ve discovered the blog of another person here in Hagerstown. I’ve added a link to her blog to my blogroll. Check out Trapper Jen MD.
- Who would have thought Carol Burnett wouldn’t understand the concept of parody? This is just kind of sad.
- Speaking of sad, yesterday was the fourth anniversary of the Iraq invasion. Though I refuse to put one of those stupid magnetic yellow ribbons on my car, I support the troops. I support them so much that I want them to come home. Now.
- Last week, Procter & Gamble Co. won a jury award of $19.25 million in a civil lawsuit filed against four former Amway distributors that started a rumor that P&C were run by Satanists. Amway is the company that make a line of overpriced household cleaning products. People sell Amway products in their homes to friends, family, and coworkers. I remember as a kid being told in church that P&G was run by devil worshipers. This is funny.
- Here is a link to a website that always seems to have a direct link to the current Borders store coupon. If there is one. It’s easier to go to this site then the actual Borders website.
- President Bush says nobody in his administration did anything wrong in firing federal prosecutors. To prove it, he will allow Congress to question Karl Rove and Harriet Miers. As long as it’s in private and off the record. Also, neither Rove or Miers will be sworn under oath to ensure that they aren’t lying.
- Dick Cheney’s feeble body broke down again today forcing him to return to the hospital. Did he go to Walter Reed? No, he went to George Washington University Hospital.

- Congresswoman calls for the assassination of Fidel Castro. Sure, she represents a district in Florida, but it’s still absolutely kooky. Even for a Republican from Florida.
- Governator Schwarzenegger broke his leg while skiing in Idaho. I guess that’s what he gets for going out of state to ski in Idaho. Him skiing in Idaho is like the governor of Wisconsin eating cheese made somewhere other then Wisconsin.
- Former Texas police narcotics officer is selling a video showing how to a avoid police detection. Even though he was one of the best narcotics cops in Texas, he now believes that marijuana should be legalized and that it’s wrong to brake up families and send people to prison over pot. I strongly agree.
- Rosie is more charitable then The Donald. Even though Donald Trump is supposedly a billionaire (so he says), Rosie O’Donnell has given far more money to worthy causes. Three times as much in fact. Where Rosie’s money goes to children, Donald’s has gone to things like the Police Athletic League.
- Writer Peter David went to see the “Borat” movie and didn’t like it. He didn’t think the humor was funny. In other news, an atheist goes to church and didn’t like it. He thought the speaker talked too much about God.
