And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset

Yes, this is true but I'd honestly rather get the message through a sappy episode of ER than from what should've been one family's personal (and private) tragedy. Once the family brought the courts into it, it became news but it didn't have to become spectacle.

This. Except it'd have to be Scrubs, since I don't watch ER. (I'd say House, but on that show she'd make a full recovery in the last act after House gives her an aspirin.)

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."

A scary but interesing column about America's drift toward a fascist theocracy--it might be a bit extreme, but it's definitely something to think about.

R. Crumb said the current trend reminded him of McCarthyism which is I think probably more accurate. Certainly there's a similarity in stifling dissent by labeling it unpatriotic. Though as Betsy's longtime tagline ("We have always been at war with EastAsia.") pointed out, the permanent state of war on terrorism is a splendid door for fascism.

Always Anti-fascist!

This *was* fucking L&O. Except without Lennie...man, I missed him, too.

We're very stretchy. - Connie Neil

Anyone see last night's South Park? I'm definitely going to check it out when it's rerun this weekend--it mixes the Sony PSP and the Schiavo case in one very crass, but according to Salon, hilarious ep.

People need to stop sending me work. Don't they know I have some very important slacking off to do?

I think fascism is a pretty big stretch. I am concerned about the corporate consolidation of the media, the voting machines with no paper trail, and politicians wrapping themselves in patriotism and religion.

I look more rad than Lutheranism

You always do this. We get tipsy, and you take advantage of my love of the scientific method.

They've given the pope last rites. [link]

A dress should be tight enough to show you're a woman but loose enough to flee from zombies. — Ginger

This sounds odd, but I'm interested in seeing all the pomp and circumstances surrounding the election of a new pope -- the white smoke, and all...and I'm kinda wondering what all will happen at my school when the pope dies. More masses? A day off for mourning?

I’d be lying if I didn’t say that I miss them all tonight…

The hair needs to be red and I need to lose an few inches off of my tummy for it to be really accurate.
