Some People Just Suck: And Pharma hasn't come up with a pill yet to fix it. "We punish conduct, not race": Police, school and city officials in Snohomish County defend arrests of Latino students.

The story on the astronaut is the best. Wore diapers to conduct a kidnapping of a fellow astronaut involved in a love triangle and took several implements to torture or kill her rival with? Priceless.

Cannabis eradication. Guess even this cloud has a silver lining....

But I am waiting in vain. Any economist worth her/his worth in salt knows that they never bring in more money than they take. The Economist has done several articles about this fact over the past few years the most recent was attacking Washington DC for the staduim they wanted to build (with tax dollars) for a new baseball team.

So Senator Payday Loan just proves she is controlled by corporate interests and passes out that corporate welfare. She probably gives head to President Bush too.

Heck, it could shut her up about both topics..

Tell Margarita we'll shut up about payday loans if she gets us the Storm for free and ships the Sonics to Sandpoint, Idaho.
