Anyone want to drive this car?
Some Internet companies are doing just fine in the post-bubble world.
I feel sorry for the guy in this story. He might be a jerk, but his girlfriend is nuts. Really.
This crap really pisses me off. Police in the People's Republic of California are charging a guy with FIRST DEGREE MURDER because he shot and killed someone trying to steal his car. I'd be angry at him being charged with manslaughter, but first degree murder? The guy could get 50 years in jail. Screw that.
Now we know the real story behind Senator Condiment's recent use of Botox.
Do you wonder why witnesses do not come forward? When they come forward, are they supposed to testify to what they actually saw or to what they think will keep them out of trouble?
If we are serious about wanting justice in our courts, we need to start getting serious about preventing intimidation of witnesses and jurors. We might start by getting all cameras out of the courtroom.
I don't even like to put my contacts in, which makes this story pretty creepy. To me, anyway.
Everyone knows that women are tough, if for no other reason than pregnancy and childbirth. This woman makes Rambo looks like a wuss.
Funny, but I don't remember the world ending when Greenland was discovered by the Vikings. Apparently, if that frozen wasteland becomes "green" land again, that's what will happen now.
Being a vidiot myself, I highly recommend video games to increase hand-eye coordination. Turns out that surgeons agree.
Modern golfers make buttloads of money. I wonder how many of them realize that the huge purses are due in large part to Arnold Palmer? Probably not many. In any event, Arnie tees it up at the Masters for his 50th consecutive appearance. So long, Arnie.
Yes, these are real. Eat your heart out.
Megan discusses what has to be the stupidest thing that the left has done yet: trying to paint Condoleeza Rice as a moron. Good luck with that, by the way.
Spoons mentions that the state of Illinois is flouting the law. Really? Say it isn't so! Next thing you'll be telling me is that elections in Chicago aren't on the up and up.
This creeps me out. It does put privacy concerns in perspective, though. Link via Qando and Spoons.
Moxie answers an email from a lefty. Damn! She just gave away all of our secrets. Excerpt:
12 noon:
Wake up, promptly kick Owen Wilson out of my house. While reading Drudge, think about new ways to screw the poor.
12:15 PM:
Have my gay houseboy serve me lunch by the pool. Pull out my pocket bible and begin talking about god and salvation. Tell him that gay people make baby jesus cry.
Lileks at his usual best. Excerpt:
Turn on the radio. The host is playing a clip of Ted Kennedy declaring “Iraq is George Bush’s Vietnam.” Well, Ted, we’re a long way from Vietnam, when American irresolution condemned millions to the gulag or to exile. Maybe we’ll get to that point, but as you might say, we’ll drive off that bridge when we come to it. But thanks for telling the troops that we’re going to lose, and that they’re dying for no reason.
1. People who do not share your opinions are not necessarily "uneducated" or "ignorant". It's a simple matter of two people, given the same facts, drawing different conclusions.
2. Being a self-righteous prat never solved anything, ended a war, fed the hungry, or helped promote human rights. It only made YOU feel really, really good about yourself, while possibly making another undeserving person feel really, really bad. In other words, you are an asshole.
And the horrid joke for the day:
A funeral service is being held for a woman who has just passed away. At the end of the service, the pall bearers are carrying the casket out when they accidentally bump into a wall, jarring the casket. They hear a faint moan. They open the casket and find that the woman is actually alive!
She lives for ten more years, and then dies. Once again, a ceremony is held, and at the end of it, the pall bearers are again carrying out the casket. As they carry the casket towards the door, the husband cries out: "Watch that wall!"
