If You Can Bail Out Wall Street and the Big Three, Why Not the Porn Industry?Yes, the American porn industry has fallen on hard times just like all the others. And, yes, they want a government bailout. Sounds ridiculous doesn't it? But, on second thought, I think I'd rather my tax money go to bailout someone screwing on screen instead of someone screwing me with resort trips and bonuses.

Now We Just Have to Keep Him AliveAfter it became clear on election night that Obama had won, my next thought quickly became, "Now we just have to keep him alive." I don't think anyone has talked a lot about that, but on this 45th anniversary of the assassination of John F. Kennedy, I thought I would bring it up.Yep, 45 years have passed since that happened. For many of the people who voted for

Finally! No Need to Apologize to the World!Well, I said in 2004 that Bush would lose and it wouldn't even be close. I overestimated the American public. Let that be a warning to me. You can never understimate the American voter. I think this time made up for it though. Even Karl Rove calls it for Obama in a landslide (338 to 200). Thanks for the good news, Karl, but it's good to see you

I Voted AlreadyYep, yesterday early voting began here in Texas and I voted yesterday. Likewise, so did everyone in my house. Today, I read that Dallas had a record-breaking number of voters, as did Chicago. In fact, Chicago had almost the same number of voters yesterday as they had in 2004 for the entire early voting period. Political wisdom says that a large voter turnout favors Democrats.

Everybody Hold Your Breath 'Cause, We're Gonna Be Sinkin' SoonThat's a line from the Norah Jones song Sinkin'Soon from her CD called Not Too Late. Did she perhaps have a premonition of the financial debacle we're going thru? Just read the lyrics, and see if they don't fit. I think they do.

Es algo que he seguido muy de cerca y les quiero ofrecer a ella y todos los secuestrados anteriores mis felicidades. Imagínate Sra. Betancourt sigue deseando servir al pueblo de Colombia como Presidenta.

Has It Really Come to This?You can buy "intimacies" of many different celebrities on the Internet. Just go to the right web address and you can buy skin cells, saliva, urine, and uh...fecal matter of the stars. No, not kidding. Jay Z's shit goes for $33.00, and so does Ludacris'. You can buy Sammy Hagar's urine for $15.00. Sorry, but Bruce Dickinson's (Iron Maiden) shit is out of stock.

Seems Like a Reasonable Request to MeA 26 year old man at a university in the U.S. got caught looking at porn and masturbating in front of a computer screen on campus. Security personnel started to take him into custody when he said, "I'm really close, can I just cum first?" Can you believe it, they didn't let him?! How rude! The judge sentenced the "offender" to six months probation. What,

Hey, he doesn't want to marry them, he just wants them to suck his dick. How come the most anti-gay Republicans keep turning up in gay scandals?

Yes, STDs can be an on-the-job injury, if you work in the right job. The Danish government requires that these actors get tested for gonorrhea every 30 days. It appears that monthly isn't frequent enough. If you want to work in the adult

Auto-CastrationI don't mean getting rid of your car either. No, I mean a man castrating himself, at least sort of. Just what could bring a man to do such a thing?

Gender ParityNo longer do women demand potty parity, now they demand cow parity. Women have long complained about the inequality of men's and women's rest rooms. Women have to wait and wait for a stall, while men just piss in the trashcan or the sink if there's nothing left (well, I've never done that, but I've seen it done).

CCCPRussians explored Alaska before other white men did, and therefore, tourist shops up there carry a lot of Russophile merchandise.

He said the money Great Britain spent on three nuclear submarines could have paid for 75, 000 doctors and 3000 advanced clinics. The British Navy reports that is spent 5.3 billion euros on the three submarines. Castro said that doctors have more importance than nuclear submarines.

Workers' CompensationPeople injured on the job have the recourse of applying for workers' compensation. Here in the US we have lots of negative ideas about just what deserves compensation. Many people believe that anyone receiving workers' compensation just doesn't want to work and prefers to malinger.I don't know how the folks in Belgium feel, but I know that a professional beer taster has won

Say It Ain't So, Sascha Oh no, it turns out that Sascha Baron Cohen will not play Freddie Mercury in a movie about Queen. All the various managers and producers of various things say, "drivel." A few days ago I reported that Borat would play Freddie Mercury, because I saw a story saying that in Aftonbladet. Well, whoever thought it up had a good idea, I think. Who knows maybe they'll do it

I'll Say!Cypriot troops have banned the use of the sex toy made in Britian named the Love Bug 2. They say that it puts out "waves" that interfere with their radio communications. What the hell do they use for radio? Not very secure if you ask me. Or, could the sexual energy produce radio waves?

Skepticism Well PlacedWell, it turns out that no one really knows who lies dead in the coffin. The Iraqi government said that some tribal fighters killed Abu Ayub al Masri. Then the Interior Ministry said they had the body of some other guy named al Baghdadi, the alleged spiritual leader of Al Qaeda in Iraq. Now, the US announces they have killed Al Qaeda's "Information Minister" named al Juburi.

Man Close to Bin Laden in GuantanamoWe've caught so many number threes of Al-Qaida, it's a wonder anyone takes the number three job anymore. The latest "major operative" we've caught is Abd al Hadi al-Iraki. He is "close to Bin Laden." Hell, everyone we catch is as close to Bin Laden as his jugular vein ;-) Have you ever heard of this guy? Me neither. I think they just keep dragging up the

Goodbye SandyWe lost Sandy today. She was a 16 1/2 year old Cocker Spaniel that wrapped me around her dew claw. We got Sandy on March 24, 1991, and we gave her up today April 20, 2007. What a dog! She taught me so much that I needed to learn. I am indebted to her more than I could ever repay. Bless you Sandy, you made my life more than what it might have been otherwise.So long, SandyYour

That Skirt Looks Just Too ViolentYes, a violent skirt has become a problem at the Miss Universe contest. It turns out that the home team (the contest takes place in Mexico City) broke the uh...rules? Miss Mexico had chosen to wear a skirt with images of Mexican history on it. One of those images shows a man standing before a firing squad, and another depicted some fallen Catholic insurgents

SMU Doesn't Want Bush's LibraryThey thought it would distinguish the university to have the George W. Bush library on campus, but a large number of professors and even Methodist bishops don't want anything to do with him. Of course, if you had a university, would you want it to have connections with an illiterate war criminal? No, I didn't think so. We've had enough of Bush here in Texas to

I Just Wanna Be SedatedWhile waiting in one of those little "alcoves" (an open area separated by a thin curtain" in the procedure waiting area, I heard my neighbor tell her husband that she felt scared about a colonoscopy and, "I just wanna be sedated."

It Has Started Well, sort of the opposite of what Jesus said at the end on the cross, "It is finished." In my case it has only started. I have the singular pleasure of undergoing a colonoscopy tomorrow. And today I have started with the uh..."clean out" to put it nicely. About 30 minutes ago I took the first dose of some kind of stuff that makes you spend all of your time in the bathroom.
