what is wrong with the burkes?
today we have regina burke, the psycho, repeatedly hallucinating about the president wrapped in nothing but a flag toga. and several months ago, martha burk proclaimed herself head policy-maker for augusta country club–a club to which she does not belong. i think she just wants attention, and maybe to be hillary clinton’s vice-presidential […]
elected official decides not to stand for pledge
WorldNetDaily reported on April 6:
A town official in a Boston suburb opposed to the war in Iraq has created a local uproar by refusing to give the Pledge of Allegiance at a recent meeting of elected officials.
Regina Burke, the “Selectman” (councilman) who refused to stand for the pledge, is causing quite an uproar in Hull, […]
Arab TV finds perfect spokesman
Apparently the Dubai-based television network, Al Arabiya, has won the bidding war (with IraqiTV?) for the much sought after services of Peter Arnett. After being fired by NBC and National Geographic for his rather ill-timed, and now blatently silly, comments about the failure of U.S. war plans, Arnett is a hot commodity among in […]

i think we like baseball because it is like spending the day relaxing at a real park–one with swing sets and grass and whatnot. except at a baseball game, you have something to […]
arnett the tool
in an attempt to dethrone peter arnett as biggest news buffoon, geraldo rivera diagrammed the position of the military unit with which he was embedded (and their attack plans) on international TV.
but even geraldo, who once suffered a broken nose at the hands of a chair-weilding skinhead on his daytime talk show, cannot compare to […]
telemarketers just need someone to talk to
when you pick up the phone, and there is an odd silence, hang up really quick! but if you somehow don’t notice the odd silence at first and fail to hang up before the telemarketer clicks in, just do what bob dobilina does. i recommend “cabazon” to start.
slapshot and michael moore. slap the whale.
i love quoting slapshot there are funny accents to imitate and audacious statements of all kinds to repeat. and no other hockey movie has earned as much affection from real hockey players. not “the cutting edge” (a mere chick flick); not “mighty ducks” (which is full of dubious hockey scenarios, especially in the […]
