Remember... only users lose drugs

Where's my stash? This is real hometown news...

Many of you may have heard, or heard about, Terry Gross' interview of Gene Simmons on Fresh Aire. Unfortunately, spoil sport Simmons wouldn't sign the release, so it is not in the Fresh Aire archives. Luckily, someone saved it and posted it here (for now, but I saved a copy). It was almost as good as the Bill O'Reilly interview on the same show...

I found this cool site when trying to learn about "scrumpy and western" music (ala Island Monkey). It has all kinds of fun things, including a list of the worst album covers. I don't know why they put this one on the list...

Corrupt Cop Stories

I get these from the DRCNet...

The first one, a tawdry tale about an exotic dancer sleeping with a cop who arrests her husband who is arrested for drugs by the cop but then files a complaint with internal affairs and sues but is then put on trial in front of a judge who is also sleeping with the cop who is...

And how are NYC's finest winning the war on drugs? By robbing the dealers.

And finally, we all know that cops have the best dope...

No time for anything creative on the blog today (except this conjoined pic), but I do suggest you listen to this powerful editorial by one of the few intelligent voices on the news channels these days... (The WMA link is lower quality than the quicktime, but loads up much faster.) I found it to be dead on, and very reminiscent of Edward R. Murrow. Do take the time...

King of Pain

Check out our supreme commander taking a reporter to task about the Geneva Conventions. The follow up with Olbermann is pretty interesting too. Could Bush end up charged as a war criminal?

Well, the only thing worse King George Bush is Jesus Bush.

If you can plod through this report on Bush and the scary Dominionists, you will be frightened... as an aside, the author of the report is quite a good painter

Back from London town and found that my coworkers collected all of my work in to a big pile for my return, so I'm busy busy busy busy...

but here is a spot-on take by Keith Olbermann about Bush post 9/11

Also, if you haven't heard this actual ad about carbon dioxide done by a lobbying group for the oil industry, it is a real classic

and here is a follow up to that very ad that aired on the Al Franken Show

Oh, and one more, listen (if you can) to Speaker of the House and dipshit Dennis Hastert's fine rendering of our national anthem

CHEERIO HO HUMMERS (pardon)

I've been called to London to stand guard! My apologies for being so silent, but things have been getting in the way and now me and the missus are going to London for some R&R. If you are going to be in London, say so and I'll let you in. See you in bit...
