Forget the Nobel prize, it’s boring and far too political. I prefer the Ignobles….here are this years winners… Now, it seems that I have the hiccups…I suppose the Bush Butt Plug is a cure for them too…. cd WASHINGTON (Reuters) – Research into stinky feet, a study on the sound of fingernails on a blackboard…
