Have we captured bin Laden yet?  And when we do, can we just say the war is over and get back to the business of pushing for Universal Healthcare and a national ban on transfats, bullies, smoking, bullies who smoke, fat people, people who bully fat people, fur, SUVs, fat bullies who wear fur, and any pet that was created for the express purpose of being a pet? After all,

DIE NATTY DIE!!!

From the classic episode ”The Democrats of Triskelion”. Though I think I will spare you the pictures of a shirtless Steny Hoyer in his Shatnerian battle harness, or Nancy Pelosi in her drill thrall costume.  You’ll have to imagine those for yourself.

Huge ‘hurricane’ rages on Saturn A hurricane-like storm, two-thirds the diameter of Earth, is raging at Saturn’s south pole, new images from Nasa’s Cassini space probe reveal. Measuring 5,000 miles (8,000km) across, the storm is the first hurricane ever detected on a planet other than Earth. Scientists say the storm has the eye and eye-wall clouds characteristic of a hurricane and its winds are swirling clockwise at 350mph (550km/h). However,

I suppose it would be really cheap to mention that Angelina Jolie is in this week’s installment, right? “Yes, it is intolerable!”

And I revel in the fact that Europe’s national language will soon be Arabic. (I really don’t. This is called sarcasm.) Do they really believe that when Democrats take over, the West will cease facing an existential threat in the form of Islamofascism or Islamism (depending on the word of the moment)?

A few months ago, I dusted off the old Rickenbacher and started noodling and then playing, after 10 years. Lately, I’ve been spending evenings with Brendan and his musical pals, now that he’s gotten over his rap phase, and I’ve turned them all onto Teenage Fanclub.  Sometimes I make my comments and posts between songs.  I’ve been able to turn them onto this kind of music, with its multiple references

certain “moderate voices” are urging me to cease my criticism of the media coverage of Mother Sheehan and the duncities of John Kerry.  Perhaps, these same voices soon will say, it’s time to shut down the Plamegate investigation, in the interest of comity. I’m just guessing. Now that the Dems are in control, it will suddenly be discovered that the war in Iraq is going much better than thought (now
