This and That From The Web

Your desire to have sex with people of the opposite genitals is just a damn fetish, straight people! Get over it!" I lost the link.

On March 6, Fox News Channel aired a Bill O'Reilly interview with Janeane Garafalo:

O'Reilly: If you are wrong . . . and if the United States--and they will, this is going to happen--goes in, liberates Iraq [with] people in the street, American flags, hugging our soldiers . . . you gonna apologize to George W. Bush?

Garafalo: I would be so willing to say, "I'm sorry." I hope to God that I can be made a buffoon of, that people will say, "You were wrong. You were a fatalist." And I will go to the White House on my knees on cut glass and say, "Hey, you and Thomas Friedman [sic] were right. . . . I shouldn't have doubted you" . . .

O'Reilly: Nobody will call you a buffoon because I will protect you.

Gag me. Of course, Faux News airs this over and over and most warblogs have it. She'll have to suck in her gut like Eric Alderman and say she was wrong, at least based on what most Americans saw. I would enjoy watching her suck in her gut, but I would enjoy watching - you can fill in the rest.

M.S.S did not show up for work. However, our intrepid editors have been able to find his actual, final quote from Tuesday. As usual, we are not making this up: "I NOW INFORM YOU THAT YOU ARE TOO FAR FROM REALITY."

U.S. officials have been making daily accusations against Syria and have overtly threatened Damascus militarily. Now they are saying that Iraq's weapons specialists have fled to Syria. From, who else, TehranTimes.com, who I guess would notice things like that. They also think that Saddam, the US, and Russia colluded for the iraqi government to escape to..., not sure but probably Russia.

The basic tool for the manipulation of reality is the manipulation of words, if you can control the meaning of words, you can control the people who must use them. -- Phillip K. Dick

Republicans have become experts at this, partial birth abortion does not refer to any time period or to any kind of birth but does refer to two of the most common abortion procedures..

Sorry, I seem to be turning serious.

Whuffie

It's the great conundrum of the web. Why do so many people do so much for free? What do people get out of it? Whuffie - that's what. Coined by writer Cory Doctorow for his novel Down and Out in the Magic Kingdom, free digital download here, Whuffie embodies respect, karma, mad-props; call it what you will, the web runs on it. ."Whuffie" serves some of the functions of currency, but is much closer to such concepts as "the approval of your peers" or "respect".

One out of three people is mentally ill. Ask two friends how they're doing. If they say they're OK, then you're it.

The Straight Dope Spreads the Bush AWOL story.

I like the straight dope but they blew it on how many people have had sex in space where he went to the NASA pr office. This guy claims he gets the straight dope from a pr office! Really shook my confidence on all his answers since then.
