Arafat’s Mystery Ailment

Seems like doctors do not really know what is really wrong with Palestinian terrorist leader Yasser Arafat. He is undergoing tests, which I hope are really painful, and include foul tasting medicines as a bonus indignity. Plus one of those really skimpy hospital gowns, just to add injury to insult. ME people are very modesty […]

Thanks, France!

The French are such wonderful people. Take every opportunity to stab the US in the back. Now they are going to let this scumbag terrorist into their country for medical treatment? Doctors decided to fly ailing Palestinian leader Yasser Arafat to Paris for treatment, as associates described a Palestinian leader who was too weak to […]

Quick Hits

This sucks: Lunar Eclipse Expected Tonight. It’s cloudy in NC. Hope y’all have better luck. This doesn’t suck: Arafat’s Health Worsens. It is difficult to say that I wish a human being bad news, but, with Arafat’s death, perhaps his billions tht are socked away could end up taking the Palestinians out of their squalid […]

Hurricanes are Bush’s Fault

No, seriously. The global warming that has apparently only occured under W (sarcasm alert on Red) is going to cause more hurricanes, at least according to billboards going up in Florida. Because President George W. Bush has “ignored the threat of global warming,” Floridians can expect to be hit by increasingly destructive hurricanes, a new […]

Iraq War: Yea or Nay?

Reader Sara has been tasked with writing a paper on the Iraq War, and is looking for reason why it was the right thing to do. Alright, my experience concept of wether the War in Iraq is justified is one that is limited, and although I do care, a tend to be straddling the fence […]

Off topic Guardian

Anyone out there familiar with Italian? The Guardian post (cannot call it a story, as all I did was post the entire original story), made it into an Italian paper (blog?) Have tried a few translation programs, and I just am not getting real good answers. Il Guardian, giornale senza dubbio umoristico, ha ritirato dal […]

Great White Shark

This past September, several bloggers, including myself, made mention of a Great White Shark that had been captured and was at the Monterey Bay Aquarium. As of October 18th, she was doing fine. I am waiting for a reply to the aquarium, to see how she is doing at this time, though, if something was […]

Thar Be Missing Explosives

But when did they go missing? Were they even there? Mr. NZ Bear has a great article, and a good roundup of links, regarding the explosive explosives story. Seems like the NY Times, and anyone else that is sticking by it, similar to Rathergate, shall be walking the plank: A senior Bush administration official said […]

Kyoto Pact

Oh, boy. It seems as if the Kyoto pact just isn’t strong enough to stop rampant global warming. (Hat tip, Right Wing News) The Russians have signed it, but: “This mustn’t lull us into thinking that the problem is solved,” Pachauri said. “Kyoto is not enough. We now have to look at the problem afresh.” […]

Question on the Guardian:

I wish I had thought of this on Sunday, but, are there any folks out there who have access to either the Sunday or Monday (England time) Guardian? I am interested to know if Charlie Brooker’s “apology” appears in the print version. TIA
