Highway to Hell

Only drunks and children tell the truth:
Gibson's Anti-Semitic Tirade

Superfreak

Those Irish bogs are wacky things - but come on - this is surreal:

Irish archaeologists Tuesday heralded the discovery of an ancient book of psalms by a construction worker while driving the shovel of his backhoe into a bog.

OK - I can accept that. THIS defies reasoning, in light of current events:

"The book was found open to a page describing, in Latin script, Psalm 83, in which God hears complaints of other nations' attempts to wipe out the name of Israel."

Are those hoofbeats?

************UPDATE**************

Those weren't hoofbeats after all. Apparently, the numbering of the Psalms changed when King James I took it upon himself to rewrite the Bible and the book in question was open to the modern Psalm 84 which does not reference the destruction of Israel.

Whew. What a relief. I was startin'to wonder if I needed to prepare for the Rapture. Glad to know I have a few more days of drinking.

In The House of the Rising Sun

The bloggers of NOLA and their affiliated supporters, hecklers, lovers and friends are having themselves a confab in August - appropriately called Rising Tide. And I've been invited (I feel so special). It is scheduled to coincide with the 1st anniversary of The Incident. I hope my student loan money is in by then so I can go.

Hey - maybe the grand jury will decline to indict the doctor and nurses (IMHO) A.G. Fart, I mean, Foti, has thrown to the jackals. There is some righteous anger against both him and Tenet Healthcare over the seeming lack of corporate culpability for the lack of evacuation plans etc. in the Times-Picayune forums. There is no way in Hell that there will be an impartial panel selected if it goes to trial. What a waste of precious time and resources.

Shout At The Devil!

Valerie Plame is suing Cheney, Rove, and Libby in a civil suit. Details soon.

heheh.

****UPDATE*****
CNN's lame story

Mr. Roboto

This is sooooo funny

And your mother smells of elderberries

This is what a lipreader says the Itlaian, Materazzi, said to provoke Zidane (who wasborn in Marseilles, but to Algerian immigrant parents) into the infamous headbutt:

Hold on, wait, that one's not for a nigger like you.

We all know you are the son of a terrorist whore.

So just fuck off.

(source: http://www.kottke.org/06/07/the-zidane-headbutt)

ummm- so although I hate that France lost, I don't think I would have held back either, given the racial tension in France lately.

Oh, and Materazzi has not denied that's what he said.
