Dear Santa,
This year I want
a doll…
Let’s see how long this stays up before YouTube yanks it:
How the Grinch Stole Christmas, all 25:17 minutes of it. Enjoy!
Edit, December 25: The Grinch has stolen the video. You’re a mean one, Mr. Grinch.
I always knew marijuana was a remarkable weed, but this is ridiculous.
Soldiers trying to seize control of one Mexico’s top drug-producing regions found the countryside teeming with a new hybrid marijuana plant that can be cultivated year-round and cannot be killed with pesticides.
Soldiers fanned out across some of the new fields Tuesday, pulling up plants by the root and burning them, as helicopter gunships clattered overhead to give them cover from a raging drug war in the western state of Michoacan. The plants’ roots survive if they are doused with herbicide, said army Gen. Manuel Garcia.
“These plants have been genetically improved,” he told a handful of journalists allowed to accompany soldiers on a daylong raid of some 70 marijuana fields. “Before we could cut the plant and destroy it, but this plant will come back to life unless it’s taken out by the roots.”
Um, no.
Not really.
And if this sleazy concept isn’t the ultimate in dealbreakers, the white socks/loafers combo surely must be.
Edit: Broken link now repaired. Er…enjoy.
Barely is the dictator cold in his grave, and already the would-be hagiographers are calling for a monument (or several) to this sick-ass freak…
A group of right-wing politicians has proposed erecting three monuments to Chile’s former military leader, General Augusto Pinochet, who died this month.
The main monument, for which plans have been put to parliament for approval, would be in the capital, Santiago.
BBC correspondents say the government is unlikely to pass the bill. Thousands died during Gen Pinochet’s 17-year rule and he was accused of rights abuses.
Does this man enjoy being Bush’s bitch? He must, because there is simply no other explanation for THIS:
Tony Blair has defended Britain’s relationship with the US, after claims he had failed to wield any significant influence over President Bush.
Mr Blair said moving away from the US would have a devastating impact on the UK’s international standing.
I, however, feel more like laughing my ass off. But then, as a Witch, I always do find it amusing when witch-hunters start eating their own.
An executive staff member at New Life Church in Colorado Springs has resigned after admitting to sexual misconduct and other mistakes – the result of an examination of the staff’s moral makeup after the ouster of senior pastor Ted Haggard, a church official said Sunday.
Christopher Beard, who headed a ministry that trained young adults in leadership skills, stepped down Friday after admitting to “a series of decisions displaying poor judgment, including one incident of sexual misconduct several years ago,” said Rob Brendle, an associate pastor at the 14,000- member church.
What’s wrong with this picture?
It’s obvious that there is a clear winner to this poll. As in the Venezuelan elections two weeks ago, Chavecito is way out ahead of his closest challenger. Considering that this is an eight-way race, to pull more than a third of the vote as he has done is pretty convincing. Yet, in what can only be called a slap in the face to the voters and the readers, TIME magazine has denied him what they would give him. Instead of exploring the remarkable realities of Chavecito, they’ve decided to play it safe and hand it to…
…drumroll please…
