When space aliens peep

admin — Sat, 31 May 2008 20:06:07 +0000

So this guy who sees aliens space everywhere he looks has released a snippet of video shot in 2003 purporting to show a space alien popping up and peeping through a window into his house. Right.

Looks like somebody on digg.com has discovered the actual identity of the face in the window.

Since this is not really news, I’m going to put the word ‘story’ in quotes.

“Story”

Don’t look back, your legacy’s gainin on ya, Bush

Yep. 98% of historians agree that this Presidency has been a failure.

I covered this previously when it first came out. At the time it was not at all clear that the story was going to be picked up by the mainstream media machine.

Well! It looks like it has made it all the way to US News and World Report, a publication that doesn’t normally print things considered “liberal opinions”. It must be that it’s gone mainstream. Faux News, next?

Think you want to be President when you grow up, little girl or boy? Study your history, so you can learn what not to do. Pay special attention to the Bush administration. It’s a clear roadmap he has provided us with. Just look at what George Bush has done and do the opposite.

Men might throw their weight around at the office, but at home, women are the bosses.

A study, which was just released, finds that wives have more power than their husbands in making decisions and dominating discussions.

“The study at least suggests that the marriage is a place where women can exert some power,” said lead author David Vogel, a psychologist at Iowa State University (ISU). “Whether or not it’s because of changing societal roles, we don’t know.”

The results counter past research.

Poll: 92 percent want ‘country of origin’ labels

You’d better believe that’s what I want. I go to the supermarket and look at Smithfield (read: giant corporation) pork, the only kind available. It is marked “natural”, which according to the label means it was grown without hormones. Excuse me? I also want my meat grown without being fed Chinese industrial waste.

In China…

Also Wednesday, the government ordered small, loosely regulated food producers to clean up their act and announced stricter rules for approving new drugs, a day after the former head of its food and drug agency was executed for accepting bribes in exchange for letting fake medicine into the domestic market.

Wow, this explains so, so much about idiocy and ignorance and the fools and incompetents who surround us.

Thar she blows! 60-ton Sperm Whale explodes in Taiwan Traffic

The 56-foot-long whale had been on a truck headed for a necropsy by researchers, when gases from internal decay caused its entrails to explode in the southern city of Tainan. Also, more than 100 Tainan city residents, mostly men, have reportedly gone to see the corpse to ‘experience’ the size of its 5-foot penis.

Kind of a cool way to show how humans evolved… And I love how almost every frame includes sex.
