Apparently, my sources tell me, when the park police arrested him he told the waiting tourist “Its not always this small…that water is just really cold.” Later the Park Police gave him spankings. I found this at the Buffalo News He Yun Chang, 38, of Beijing, was charged with disorderly conduct and exposing himself in…

Apparently Jesus pays as well as Saves
Frankly, I am not surprised. Bernest Ernstein once told me ‘When you see the Fish, hold on to your wallet.’ The Catholic Church is the richest institution on the planet. Think about it… I’m not real sure what to say about this…maybe you guys have some thoughts… btw the winking jesus is from soulcancer.com WASHINGTON…

The US Congress should reject a Senate bill if it includes a White House-proposed amendment that would allow the CIA to abuse prisoners during interrogations, a human rights group said. Human Rights Watch said…
Hawaii Woman Hits $1.4M Slots Jackpot- Husband is Stoked

'Elmo' seized in LA police action
Not just Elmo, but Mr. Incredible, too!

A Mosaic of Arab Culture at Home in America – New York Times
An interesting article from the New York Times. I’ve always contended that the periods of ‘melting pot’ growth and maturity in America are a direct result of the wars we fought. I contend still that wars suck….but I probably wouldn’t be able to enjoy Pho so easily if we hadn’t of become embroiled in a…
