Don’t know if you heard of the Clemson “black-faced” party in which students basically dressed up as black stereotypes. What’s a black stereotype, you ask? They painted themselves darker, the women padded the back of their pants to add junk to the trunk, carried bottles of malt liquor, and so on.
The party came the day before Martin Luther King Jr. day, the story reports, as if that’s supposed to have some significance. These people, as far as I can tell, weren’t hurting anyone, weren’t bullying any African-Americans, …

You know those stupid stories on MSN and Yahoo that have titles like “The Top Five Ways to Stick to New Year’s Resolutions” and are written by the latest moron of the week?  More than drugs, alcohol, violence, and tolerance, these stupid articles responsible for the decay of our society.
Check out MSN’s latest masterpiece, “Diet, Exercise Take Off Equal Pounds.”
Tests on overweight people show that a calorie is just a calorie, whether lost by dieting or by running, [U.S. researchers] said.
REALLY?  WHY, THANK YOU, MSN!
“It’s all about the calories,” said Dr. Eric Ravussin …

I was mad that someone won my $254 lottery money until I found out it was this guy.
[Lottery winner James] Wilson asked for a $5 ticket at a store shortly before the drawing, and the clerk mentioned that the shop had some $5 Powerball “Quick Pick” tickets with computer-selected numbers already printed, the statement said.
Wilson agreed and took the next ticket, which turned out to be the single winner.
Funny, because in my days as a gas station clerk, I always thought it’d be funny if those “accident” lottery tickets would ever …

Moscow Mayor Yury Luzhkov said he wouldn’t let any gay pride parades happen in his neck of the woods despite our gay western culture despite pressure from the West. 
He even goes so far as to call gay pride parade “satanic”:
“Last year, Moscow came under unprecedented pressure to sanction the gay parade, which can be described in no other way than as Satanic,” Luzhkov said at the 15th Christmas educational readings in the Kremlin Palace.
That’s taking it a bit far.  Clay Aiken and Lance Bass aren’t “satanic,” unless you’re talking about the …

Now that a lot more people are tossing their names into the hat, I thought I’d size up the current Presidential candidate scene with a little help from my friend. 
Keep in mind, this isn’t who I think will win, but who I think has the most positive kevorka voodoo momentum going right now:
1.  Hillary Clinton
As Ann Coulter states:
According to the famed “polls” — or, as I call them, “surveys of uninformed people who think it’s possible to get the answer wrong” — Hillary is the current front-runner for the Democrats.
Right now, the …

Lovie Smith is looking good in orange as he arrives in Miami. This is a pretty amazing visual for Bears fans who remember what Lovie’s three goals were for the franchise back before the ‘04 season:

Beat Green Bay (check)
Win the NFC North (double check)
Win the Superbowl (?)

It makes me glad to see that good old goal-setting is helping a coach achieve the best.  In the Jauron days, no one made a big deal out of the Packers, and we subsequently got beat by them, even swept 0-2 during our 13-3 …

I was talking to a guy last night who said that Mother Theresa was a sadist and that Gandhi hated the negro, but you never expected kindly old Jimmy Carter to be one of those famous people whose apparent image needs to be debunked. Think again!
Former President Jimmy Carter once complained there were “too many Jews” on the government’s Holocaust Memorial Council, Monroe Freedman, the council’s former executive director, told WND in an exlusive interview.
Freedman, who served on the council during Carter’s term as president, also revealed a noted …

The United States Military unveiled a heat-ray gun today, a weapon designed to disperse crowds and make enemies surrender their guns.
The heat-ray gun is a huge apparatus that is attached to Humvees, and has a range of 550 yards. While it doesn’t do any lasting damage to the person it rays down, it gives them a strong burning feeling and heats up the outer portion of their skin to 50 degrees celsius.

This is pretty amazing. If any person carrying a gun can just be heat-zapped and forced to drop …

John Kerry announced yesterday that he won’t be running for President in 2008, holding back tears on the Senate floor.

“We came close – certainly close enough to try again,” Mr Kerry told senators, at one point choking back tears. “But I have concluded this isn’t the time to mount a presidential campaign. We have to find a way to end this misguided war and bring our troops back home.”

He talks about it like it’s Vietnam, the great war that once made Kerry declare that Communism can’t be stopped.
My question is, …

This basically sums up the story:
A married woman who was having an affair with a fellow skydiver plunged 13,000ft (4,000m) to her death after her love rival and best friend tampered with her parachute, police say.
Kids, don’t play with people’s feelings and then go parachuting.  It’s just not prudent.
