Monday, September 20th, 2010In a country chock full of Big Brothers, a little town in a little state is about to overtake them all. Move over California, New York, and Pennsylvania, there’s a new Nazi in town. Boston, in its infinite wisdom, is considering a plan to limit sales of sugary drinks – public opinion be damned.

Illinois Prof: “USA” Chant Offensive To Muslims
Monday, September 20th, 2010The lovely and talented Kim sent me this big bushel of idiocy. It appeared as a Letter to the Editor in the Daily Illini, the student newspaper of the University of Illinois. I posted it in its entirety, but before you read it, you’ll need the duct tape.

That being said, this story does not pass the smell test – unless the guy is Harry Houdini. The lovely and talented Robbie sent me this story, and I am still [...]
Welcome To The Obama Zone

Do You Like The Phillies?
Saturday, September 18th, 2010Personally, I hate them, but in fairness, I hate baseball. What with all of the steroids and such. However, if you are a chick who happens to be a Phillies fan, this is your chance to summon your inner Jennie Finch. The Phillies are looking for ball girls. Do you have the balls for the [...]
