Straight from God's Mouth to Your Ear: Seattle Catholics have been ordered to hate on gay marriage, just in time for today's Senate and House committee meetings on Washington's gay marriage bill.

Today in Sanctified Straight Marriage: Heidi Klum and Seal announce split after seven years (and seven marriages, for those keeping score at home).

Conquering the Pole: Today, British skier Felicity Aston became the first woman to ski alone across Antarctica, as well as the first person to ski solo across the continent using only her own muscle power. The journey took her two months.

Man Shot Four Times in the Chest: Over in wild West Seattle.

Making Googly Eyes at Florida: The next primary battleground has 50 winner-take-all delegates ripe for the plucking and three GOP contenders—Romney, Gingrich, and Santorum—each with a win under their belt.

He Meant Mammals: A Chinese technology firm that makes Apple's iPhone, among others, issued a halfhearted apology for its chief Terry Gou, who reportedly referred to his workers as "animals."

I'm in It for the Ribs: Giants and the Patriots headed for the 2012 Superbowl.

Gabrielle Giffords is Out: As Paul mentioned yesterday, the Congresswoman who survived a bullet to the head is stepping down from office to focus on her recovery.

"Bone fragments can still be seen on the surface of the ground, especially after rain": Forensic archeologists have confirmed the existence of mass graves and burnt bone shards at Treblinka, a concentration camp in Poland halfheartedly covered up by the Nazis in 1943 (Put a Farm on It!™).

Those Catholic leaders have done such a good job as guardians of their flocks's children. Let's have them telling us how adults should run their lives!

Regarding that Catholic Church order to the faithful, you can do as I did and go to http://www.seattlearchdiocese.org/Archdi… and send a DEMAND FOR VOLUNTARY EXCOMMUNICATION. I should have done this years ago.

"DEMAND FOR VOLUNTARY EXCOMMUNICATION

The Archdiocese's latest act of hatred against it's gay and lesbian members is the final straw. Please modify your records to show that I, who was baptized in St. Michael's Parish, Olympia in 1946 have voluntarily renounced my baptism and any and all ties to The Roman Catholic Church in any of its manifestations effective immediately."

The Catholic Church wouldn't know God if they tripped over Him in a back alley.

And that's the first time ICP has made an appearance on Slog. Here's hoping it's the last.

@ 5, I think that "Miracles" video was on Slog - or at the very least, a link to the Line Out post about it was.

I distinctly remember seeing something about Juggalos in Seattle a few months back.

Cienna you may have thought it was a big yukk to think "put a farm on it!™" had some humor to it. Unfortunately for you it bombed and it was just poor taste

@5: huh? Kelly O had some great stuff from their Gathering a couple of years back...

And the Supreme Court admitted that putting GPS tracking devices on your car is an illegal search and unconstitutional today.

Except Juggalos - nobody cares about their rights.
