Letters from a Crony

Miers and BushIt is no hidden secret that George Bush and Harriet Miers are more than just acquaintances. A multitude of news sources have ran stories about the two’s relationship. A few posts down, I discussed that most of this information is found in correspondence between the president and his crony. Just now, The Smoking Gun has released scans of all of the letters they gave to each other. At least those stored by the Texas State Library and Archives Commission. Now, John, you can see the president’s reference to scatology in his own handwriting.

Black BibleTired of lugging that big ol’ bible with ya every Sunday to service? Tired of lookin’ for page 2,138 to show heathen teenagers on your block that they’re gonna burn in hell? Well, struggle no more!

The Australian Bible Society has created the SMSBible: all 31,173 verses of scripture translated to SMS speak and ready to download to your mobile phone!

Michael Rodriguez, son of Australia’s Bible Society Director George Rodriguez, spent six weeks translating the entire bible into text messages and designing the software for mobile phones. Ya have to appreciate the geekiness.

No more Bible for me. Now, I just need to find a cell phone…

Just a Little Slang Among Buddies?

Harriet Miers ProfileI have received quite a few emails about the latest New York Times article discussing the close relationship between the President and his SCOTUS appointee. The article begins talking about a birthday card Bush sent to Miers on her 52nd birthday that said:

I appreciate your friendship and candor – never hold back your sage advice.

J-Luv, however, caught something that very few news sources have the guts to report. Right after the above line, Bush wrote:

P.S. No more public scatology.

At first, I didn’t believe it. Then I found the Associated Press story confirmed by CBS News and IndyStar.

I got nothin’ to say. Wouldn’t have expected it. John says I need a new category just for this.

If someone can find a copy of the actual card, let me know.

The Case of Alligator v. Python

Case: Biting off more than you can chew

A Florida alligator had a rough end last week when a 13-foot Burmese python swallowed it whole. Justice seemed served, however, when the python burst from its immense prey.

Don’t Mess With McCain

Daily Show McCainI just got done watching yesterday’s episode of the Daily Show and it was phenomenal. Apparently, Bush and his generals really don’t talk about the war. Also, insulting General McCain is never recommended. Here is the video thanks to C&L.

Giant Pink Bunny Constructed On Mountain

Giant Pink Bunny

The Vietnamese art group, Gelatin, has designed and created a 200-foot long toy rabbit on Italy’s Colletto Fava mountain. “Knitted by dozens of grannies out of pink wool,” hikers are encouraged to climb its 20 foot sides and relax on its belly. Do you think it’s going to get hard like Peeps?

Killer Dolphins Set Loose By Katrina (No Joke!)

Out of all the mess that came from Katrina, this has to be the craziest.

It may be the oddest tale to emerge from the aftermath of Hurricane Katrina. Armed dolphins, trained by the US military to shoot terrorists and pinpoint spies underwater, may be missing in the Gulf of Mexico.

Experts who have studied the US navy’s cetacean training exercises claim the 36 mammals could be carrying ‘toxic dart’ guns. Divers and surfers risk attack, they claim, from a species considered to be among the planet’s smartest. The US navy admits it has been training dolphins for military purposes, but has refused to confirm that any are missing. […]

Leo Sheridan, 72, a respected accident investigator who has worked for government and industry, said he had received intelligence from sources close to the US government’s marine fisheries service confirming dolphins had escaped.

‘My concern is that they have learnt to shoot at divers in wetsuits who have simulated terrorists in exercises. If divers or windsurfers are mistaken for a spy or suicide bomber and if equipped with special harnesses carrying toxic darts, they could fire,’ he said. ‘The darts are designed to put the target to sleep so they can be interrogated later, but what happens if the victim is not found for hours?’

Crazy Naked Squirrel

Naked SquirrelSorry that I haven’t updated for a while. According to John, if I keep this up I’ll never get on a CNN blog watch. He also recommended that I post a random picture of something naked to boost my ratings. So, here it is, a naked squirrel!
