I really have been away a long time

Wow, nobody told me Maureen Dowd had her own blog. Salty! Think Rocky Horror Picture Show meets Cory Kahane. Yeah, nobody does. My point exactly. Anyway, turns out John Kerry is hung like a Budweiser Clydesdale. Which, who knew? Must remember to giggle next time some flunky calls him “deep.” In related news: Oh boy, is that ham…? Christ I love Easter.

Easter Bunnies

I haven’t heard back from the Denver Channel with regard to the missing Aquadog story (see below), but in the meantime, a reader over at WorldWideRant brought to my attention the story of Mary Toft and the rabbit babies, lifted from the Museum of Hoaxes. Best read while enjoying a nice creme-filled Cadbury Egg: In late 1726 the surgeon John Howard was called to the house of Mary Toft in

Creationism…?

Weird. The Aquadog story has gone and disappeared. I blame the Vatican, of course. But never fear: I made a screen capture (beKos you never know when posts might vanish these days), so just click on the thumbnail to enlarge the image and you can read at least part of the text. Meanwhile, I’ll email the folks at the Denver Channel and see if I can’t find out what happened

Yawn

Well, the August 6 PDB has been declassified and released, and not at all surprisingly (unless you happen to be a frothing partisan with a wildly conspiratorial imagination, in which case you were expecting Mossad surveillance photos of Todd Beamer) there’s nothing much to it. Richard Ben Veniste knew this, too — even as he tried using it to embarrass the Administration on national television. Because that’s the kind of

Well, this’ll give Mel Gibson something to do…

First, the Milwaukee Jesus Tree. Then, the Lamb of Allah. Now — just in time for Easter — it’s AQUADOG! …And how to react to a full-blown act of God? […] I thought I should leave the house, because it’s not everyday a dog does such a thing. It was maybe a miracle, but I was scared of it anyway. God’s reply: “I said I was a benevolent God, honey.

The song remains the same, part 2

A snippet of conversation overheard in the waiting area of a Colorado Jiffy Lube™: First Guy: “I don’t know. I’m not even paying attention to election stuff yet. I’ve got my own problems.” Second Guy: “New serpentine belt, huh? How much is that gonna run ya?” First Guy: “I mean, is there even a difference between Bush and Kerry? A vote for either one’s gonna end up costing me money.

The Left Speaks

“Our message to you, Mr. President: It’s wrong to politicize 9/11 and the War on Terror. Politicizing the death of Americans is both cynical and immoral. Politicizing the War on Terror is a slap in the face to the families of its victims. How dare you, Mr. President.”

“What they knew before 9/11: Is the Bush Administration…?”

Click here for the complete CBS poll results. Ignore CBS’s headline spin — after all, these are the folks who pay to keep Dan Rather in dress socks. So. Did Condi Rice’s testimony help the Bushies? We report, you decide.

Rice Krispy Treats

The most interesting fact about yesterday’s Condolezza Rice testimony before the 9/11 commission? Of the 25000 or so words exchanged, Ms. Rice — whom the commission insisted needed to testify publically lest Truth be throttled — spoke only 15000 of those words, or sixty percent. The other forty percent of the time, television audiences were treated to Bob Kerrey throwing a salty, context-challenged testosterfit, or to Richard Ben Veniste attempting

Another note to my wife

…What’d I tell ya? Now if somebody would please release that study showing how sitting on your ass with a box of hard pretzels and a tub of jalapeno cheese dip adds inches to your penis, I could retire as the smartest and most prescient man who ever lived.
