"Michael Berg: Al-Zarqawi's death is no cause for rejoicing". Given how disgusted I was with some of the blog entries and comments that followed the death of al-Zarqawi, I thought this article was somewhat encouraging.

"Beyonce Gets Served on Fur". Even if you don't agree with PETA's stance on various issues, you should sign up for the mailing list just for hilarious article links like this. PETA is wacky.

"Reason behind fatal shooting elusive". I disagree -- it's not all that elusive if you've actually seen X-Men: The Last Stand. Or if you read the article, which for some inexplicable reason goes on about neighbors of the gunman being agitated by the family's initial lack of curtains or window shades. Shit, I'd be homicidal too if I lived on a street with people who gave a crap about being able to see an ironing board through my front window. And I think this is the first article I've ever read that describes the victim of a shooting as having been "lightning fast." He apparently wasn't faster than a speeding bullet, though. 🙁

"crabs". He's got a mouth full of crabs.

Ja.
