Yeah. It's stuck in my head.

Well, it looks like Kanye pulled the "race card" yet again. No, it's not about Katrina this time. And yes, of course it's satire. But it's funny. iPod Nano [ Tempus Fugit | TxFx.net ]

So I heard that gas prices may be going up because of the whole Katrina natural disaster, but I never expected them to go this high.

Sucks to be an SUV owner.

SAN FRANCISCO, California (Reuters) -- California Attorney General Bill Lockyer has filed a lawsuit to force top makers of potato chips and french fries to warn consumers about a potential cancer-causing chemical found in the popular snacks.

In a complaint filed Friday in Los Angeles Superior Court, Lockyer sought an injunction to stop restaurant chains such as McDonald's Corp. and Wendy's International Inc. from selling french fries without some form of warning.

Also named were producers of potato chips and other packaged potato products like PepsiCo's Frito-Lay Inc. and Procter & Gamble Co., makers of Pringles chips. blah blah blah-fucking-blah...

"I know from personal experience that, while these snacks may not be a necessary part of a healthy diet, they sure taste good," Lockyer said in a statement. "But I, and all consumers, should have the information we need to make informed decisions about the food we eat."

God damn. Have you ever heard such a fucktard for an Attorney General? Is this really... I mean really... honestly... the BEST HE CAN FUCKING COME UP WITH?? Chips and french frys? Frys? We should have the information we need huh? Okay. Here's a little clue Mr Fucktard. As the name of the food would imply (come on follow me here, I know you can do this), IT'S FUCKING FRIED!!!!! Oh and here's some more information... no charge. If you are all really that god damn concerned with your health, THEN LAY THE FUCK OFF THE CHIPS AND FRIES!! Why does California insist on legislating EVERY-fucking-THING?? WHY?? It's like suing God, because ...oh well you know the sun is kinda bright, and if you look at it all day, you might go blind. I think there oughta be some kinda label on that big bright thing up there. You know. So we can have all the information. How about that Pacific Ocean? That thing gets kinda deep doesn't it? I don't recall ever seeing any sort of label on it. Clearly we should legislate this too. Mr Fucktard, there's really only one label we need to legislate. It's a label for your fucking forehead that says "I'm a fucktard. Please talk slower." Fucking moron.

Would you brave a stampede for it? Risk personal injury or maybe even death? What if it was a 4 year old iBook? Would you do it then?

People threw themselves forward, screaming and pushing each other. A little girl's stroller was crushed in the stampede. Witnesses said an elderly man was thrown to the pavement, and someone in a car tried to drive his way through the crowd.

Jesse Sandler said he was one of the people pushing forward, using a folding chair he had brought with him to beat back people who tried to cut in front of him.

"I took my chair here and I threw it over my shoulder and I went, 'Bam,"' the 20-year-old said nonchalantly, his eyes glued to the screen of his new iBook, as he tapped away on the keyboard at a testing station.

"They were getting in front of me and I was there a lot earlier than them, so I thought that it was just," he said.

Can't remember ever hearing about anybody jumping through these kinds of hoops for a PeeCee. People just love Macs. Holy shit! Take a look at these slideshows! Slideshow 1 | Slideshow 2. Read more here & here. Hey how many of these things do you think will end up on ebay anyway???

For cryin' out loud... and why on Earth would you want to be like those poor loser bigamists with only two wives? Where is your sense of achievement? Where's that "can do" attitude? Why not be like this fella?

3 Wives Greet British Man After Surgery

LONDON -- Some people bring flowers. But when Melvyn Reed's three wives showed up to visit him at the hospital, they brought the unexpected end to his years as a bigamist.

British police confirmed Thursday that after Melvyn Reed's marital affairs took a turn for a worse as he recovered from triple bypass surgery _ all three of his spouses had turned up at the same time, despite his efforts to stagger their visits.

Media reports say that the wives quickly realized that they were all married to the same man.

The 59-year-old company director from Kettering in central England turned himself in May, telling police he was married to three women at the same time, and confessing to bigamy, illegal in Britain, London's Metropolitan Police said in a statement.

A spokeswoman for the Crown Prosecution Service said Reed was with his attorney when he turned himself in and confessed in Wimbledon, south London.

He pleaded guilty July 19 to two charges of bigamy and was given a four-month suspended sentence and ordered to pay $126 in costs, police said.

It wasn't immediately possible to reach Reed or his three wives. Reed's lawyer, Laurence Grant, also could not immediately be reached for comment.

The Metropolitan Police said Reed married his first wife, Jean Grafton, in 1966, then left her without divorcing her. He went on to marry Denise Harrington in 1998, then married Lyndsey Hutchinson in 2003.

The Metropolitan Police said Harrington and Hutchinson have since sought advice on getting their marriages annulled. But media reports say lawyers have advised the women that their marriages were never valid.

Now this whole thing just bothers me. Not because of the double bigamy thing, but check this out:

• Dude was in the hospital for "triple" bypass surgery
• Dude had "three" wives show up at his bedside at the same time.

Coincidence? hmmm?

Or was it the power of three?

A Hong Kong official said one of the territory's tiny islands could make a killing with a novel theme park based on its unsavoury reputation as a suicide spot

A "killing" he says. A real comedian, that one is. Yeah! Let's all visit the Hong Kong Suicide Theme Park!

fine print: To be clear... I don't particularly find suicide all that funny. It's tragic and painful for the ones they leave behind. But this theme park idea, come on now... Is that not one of the dumbest fucking ideas you've ever heard?? It's at least gotta be on the list somewhere near the top. It's right up there with solar powered flashlights.

First, it was Sunday. No work. A day of rest, and yes... I vegged for much of it. Today was also my sister's birthday. Peg and I got her a ceiling fan, because we live in well... Las Vegas. It's fuggin' HOT here lately. We (the fam) all went out to Joe's Crab Shack for dinner. Had that 40 shrimp special for $12.95. That's good eats right there.

Came home and watched Office Space again, while Peggy went shopping with the girls. It's only one of the funniest movies of all time. Peggy came home with another fish today (another betta).

Cute lil fella, huh? We named him Sora, after the main character in the Kingdom Hearts video game. All of her bettas (6 in all) are named after either anime or video game characters.
