The Great American Moat

The problem with these great faux news stories from The Onion is you just know that some of The Bushies take ideas like this seriously....

In The Know: The U.S. Moat

The Truth is Out There

And all this time I thought it was Karl Rove and tricked-up Diebolt voting machines....

Mr Funky Bunny


I have a warped sense of humour! The name of this stuffed toy pattern is too funny! Then to add to the humour the toy can be made as: Mr Funky Bunny in a dress...

I don't know why this cracks me up...it just does!

More Music from the UK

My friend, Clive, sent me this Youtube of Lily Allen doing her version of the Kaiser Chiefs OH MY GOD! She's hitting the charts over here and hopefully will have the same success on this side of the pond!


I'm Jeremiah, and I'm not talking about God being mad at us. I'm talking about us killing the planet as a life-support system with gasoline. What's going to happen is, very soon, we're going to run out of petroleum, and everything depends on petroleum. And there go the school buses. There go the fire engines. The food trucks will come to a halt. This is the end of the world. We've become far too dependent on hydrocarbons, and it's going to suddenly dry up. You talk about the gluttonous Roaring Twenties. That was nothing. We're crazy, going crazy, about petroleum. It's a drug like crack cocaine. Of course, the lunatic fringe of Christianity is welcoming the end of the world as the rapture. So I'm Jeremiah. It's going to have to stop. I'm sorry.
