It Brought Tears, I Do Declare

If only the Fox All Stars could do SOTU analysis like this.

The money quotes:

"Alito, wearing robe, enters the hall. Instinctively, Amanda Marcotte clenches her vaginal muscles to protect her uterus."

"Cut to Pelosi: Beelzebub in heels, her face stretched like an Ed Gein lampshade: applauds politely."

Happy Birthday to PW, btw. The cupcakes are in the mail.

Men Want Jessica Alba

Jessica-AlbaUsually, public opinion polls are disputable. I think this one has merit because it's what Mom would want for her son also.

From BostonHerald.com:

"Fantastic Four" gal Jessica Alba is the woman most men want to bring home to meet Mom, according to AskMen.com.

Jess is "long-term relationship material," according to the Web site's 2.5 million readers and staff surveyed for the annual Top 99 List.

Angelina Jolie was a runner-up and, oddly, Britney Spears didn't even make the list. Also, no veiled ROPMA women were in the Top 99 List. Imagine that.

It's In the Koran (Karaoke)

UPDATE: If the video isn't working, it's because we've killed the bandwidth on it. 'Patrick Henry', who produced the video, has reposted it here. Hopefully that link will work for awhile.

Since Vinnie appears to be asleep at the wheel on that whole Blog Sabbath thing, enjoy this music video. It's even got words so you can sing along!

Hat tip Joel.

Burning Down the House (Reno punk remix)

I never much cared for David Byrne's version of it. Janet Reno's is much better.

War Porn: Music Videos, Iraqi Soldiers Style

Thanks to Steve for sending me this link to The Officer's Club which leads to this this video of Blackwater guys popping members of the Mahdi Army. Searching around I found some cool music videos made by our troops. They are basically home movies set to music, but they are a tribute to the men fighting in Iraq. As Osama bin Laden reminded us today, they are fighting in Iraq so we won't have to fight them here.

Just think of this post as MTV, if MTV actually wanted us to win the war. More videos below the fold including The Offspring, and DVDA's Team America: World Police song America f*ck yeah!

Gay Cowboy Eating Pudding Critical of West Virginians, Mormons

I wonder what former Grand Kleagle Robert Byrd has to say about this? Via Dan Riehl: Heath Ledger slams West Virginians, Mormons:

"I heard a while ago that West Virginia was going to ban it. But that's a state that was lynching people only 25 years ago, so that's to be expected," Ledger said.

"Personally, I don't think the movie is (controversial) but I think maybe the Mormons in Utah do. I think it's hilarious and very immature of a society.

Yeah, nothing says 'mature' like two guys having sex on the open range. File under: bad gay.

See Vinnie Post, See Vinnie Run, Run Vinnie Run!

Hook 'em Horns!

UPDATE:

Hooked!

Two observations:

This sets USC up for even greater humiliation Sept. 16th, 2006.

In two-three years, no one will remember the names Reggie Bush, Matt Leinart, and Vince Young. It's the Heisman Curse (anyone outside of Nebraska remember Eric Crouch?).

That's it for my football blogging. My favorite pro team isn't even in the playoffs.

We now return you to your regularly scheduled mayhem.

Washington Resolutions

Everyone makes New Year's Resolutions (except me). This year I thought it would be fun to take a look at some of the resolutions made by some of our more esteemed politicians. Feel free to add as necessary.

John McCain - I resolve that in 2006 I will make up my mind on an issue. I'm not sure which issue yet.
Nancy Pelosi - I resolve that in 2006 I will not get any more botox treatments
Dick Durbin - I resolve that in 2006 I will give up my Taliban membership
President Bush - I resolve that in 2006 I will act like a true fiscal conservative and not let Congress run wild
John Murtha - I resolve that in 2006 I will not try to make everyone think I'm a military genius just because I've been in the Marines
John Edwards - I resolve that in 2006 I will not spend 3/4 of my time on my hair
Harry Reid - I resolve to put up a bigger searchlight. Obviously the voters didn't see the last one.
Ted Kennedy - I resolve to quit drinking. No, that would be too hard. I resolve to not drown anyone else. Maybe. As long as I'm not driving drunk.
Barbara Boxer - I resolve to eliminate men from the planet in 2006
Dianne Fienstein - I resolve to marry Barbar Boxer in 2006
John Kerry - I resolve that in 2006 I will not get any more botox treatments. Or go to any more tanning beds.
Dick Cheney - I resolve not to talk so much in 2006.
Karl Rove - I resolve to utterly destroy the Democratic party in 2006. Or in 2008 if we fail this year.

Sith Lord Accused of Conspiracy

A Sith Lord is accused of leading a mysterious group of short-sellers in a conspiracy engineered to cripple Overstock.com. The truth of the matter is unknown at present, but it is known that the value of Overstock shares has plummeted and holiday sales figures are disappointing.

Wait a minute, with Rusty a Sith Master, the Sith Lord must be his boss.

A College Bowl Week Poem

Vinnie and Rusty watchin' the tv

Texas versus USC

First come the Huskers

Second comes Big 12

Then comes Rusty crying because Texas kicked USC's ass, and Vinnie is rooting for Texas because Texas is in the Big 12, and a win will make the Big 12 look good.

- the end

Eh, next year, the Huskers will play Texas, and I'll go back to hating them as usual.

Ya'll can have the comments to talk smack about the college bowl games.

Michigan fans bitching about the bad officiating will be deleted. The refs made bad calls on both sides the whole game. Great teams overcome all adversity, even bad refs, so STFU.

Tajikistan Swastika

Tajikistan Swastika(Dushanbe, Tajikistan) Tajik historians maintain that Tajiks are of Indo-European or Aryan origin and, as a consequence, the authorities in Dushanbe have adopted a stylized version of the swastika as the national symbol. Tajik officials contend that the swastika is a symbol of Aryan culture that has existed for many centuries and has many interpretations. According to Abduhakim Sharipov, administration official,

"We all know that fascism used this symbol for its purposes. This symbol therefore carries negative connotations for many ... ;[but] we should not limit ourselves to only one interpretation."
The authorities want the swastika to gain newer, positive connotations and popularize Aryan contributions to the history of the world civilization. My hope is that international pressure comes to bear on Tajikistan to reconsider its decision on the swastika.

As an aside, Dushanbe is the capital of Tajikistan and the sister city to Boulder, Colorado. So, don't be surprised if a few more swastikas show up in Boulder, arguably already one of the most left-leaning American cities.

Oberlin College Women's Rugby Semi-Nude Calendar

(Oberlin, Ohio) With pom-poms and other props, the women's rugby team at Oberlin has posed for a 2006 calendar to "challenge the way people think about women playing a traditionally male sport." Even bruised and sweaty, they're provocative.

"We aren't trying to sell ourselves, but we wanted to address important issues, like how women athletes are depicted sexually, and gender roles in sports," said team member Alia Kate. "It's about our empowerment as both women and athletes."
The hope is that people will be drawn to the photos (sample) and then think seriously about the statements.

You know, when I look at men's magazines, I'm initially drawn by the pictures of the centerfold. But I become much more engaged when I read about her favorite foods and how she plans to stop world hunger.

Infidel-Zionist-Crusader Dogs Found Beheaded in Tokyo

Some headlines just write themselves. The other obvious headline and related dog-eating jokes were deemed too ethnically insensitive by The Jawa Report editorial board. Which, of course, means that you should feel free to leave them in the comments. AP:

Some 30 dog heads were found discarded in a moat near Tokyo's main detention center, police said Friday....

The severed heads were mostly decomposed and some of them were skeletal, the police official said. The shape and size of the heads suggested they were of adult dogs, he said, adding that investigators believed no human heads were included....

Late Friday, an 82-year-old man who runs a neighborhood meat shop admitted to dumping the dog heads into the moat, and police are questioning him, public broadcaster NHK and Kyodo News agency said.

The man, whose name was not released, told police that he imported the dogs - frozen and already separated into heads and bodies - from China to sell as food, Kyodo said. All the torsos had been sold, and as there was little interest in the heads, the butcher said he dumped them in the moat, hoping they would be eaten by the fish.

Tookie Execution Outrages Europeans

It's being reported that the Europeans are outraged at the execution of Stanley Tookie Williams because it reminds them of the state-mandated murders committed by the Nazis.

I'd like to send every one of the outraged Europeans an electronic boo-hoo and ask why in the hell are they not outraged when al Qaeda kidnaps and beheads innocent civilians? And where is the outrage at generations of suicide bombers among the Palestinians? Until there's an expression of outrage against blatant murder by the terrorists, the Europeans can take their protest against capital punishment and shove it in their Danube.

Door-Slamming Music

(Bangui, Central African Republic) It seems that even in the middle of the Dark Continent, broadcasters are subjected to censorship.

From ABC News:

Central African Republic has ordered radio and television stations to stop broadcasting songs which encourage men to dump their wives, saying such music is a hindrance to the country's development.

Broadcasters had been told not to play any music which might inspire Central African men to look for new partners if the ones they were married to no longer satisfied their needs, interim Communications Minister Fidele Ngoundgika said.

I wonder how the "no longer satisfies needs" idea would play out in Ohio.

Dean-o Wants the Spotlight Again

Howard Dean seems to have two problems these days. First off, he wants the spotlight. You can tell just by watching him for five minutes that he can't stand it when someone else gets attention. But that only compounds his second problem which is the fact that he doesn't have anything original to say. Because of this, Dean has decided to steal the Murtha-ism that we can't win in Iraq.

In a most unoriginal speech, he goes on to compare Iraq to Vietnam and insinuate that the Iraqi people are too helpless to take care of themselves. He then concludes with the most original "We cannot have our troops being targets there."

Taken along with his antics during the last Presidential primaries and his shenanigans since, this has made me see Dean in a whole new light... more...

Transmitting Touch Over the Internet

The mind boggles at the potential applications of this technology.

From Silicon.com:

Singapore scientists looking for ways to transmit the sense of touch over the internet have devised a vibration jacket for chickens and are thinking about electronic children's pyjamas for cyberspace hugs.

A wireless jacket for chickens or other pets can be controlled with a computer and gives the animal the feeling of being touched by its owner, researchers at Nanyang Technological University (NTU) told The Straits Times.

The next step would be to use the same concept to transmit hugs over the internet, the researchers said.

The researchers are thinking of some sort of pajamas which would be controlled by the Internet to adjust pressure and temperature and simulate the feeling of being hugged.

Of course, since the technology has only been tested on chickens, some people wonder how the scientists conluded that the sensations chickens feel are hugs and not squeezes or chokes. After all, chickens are usually not seen hugging and discussing the feeling with humans.

Presumably, there's a market for people who want to hug their chickens and children via the Internet. I'm interested in seeing what develops.
