If I only had a brain...

I'm not sure manslaughter is technically a "high crime".

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

Well, maybe...

"Duuuuude. You totally manslaughtered that guy...."

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

It's a felony, which means it's not a misdemeanor.

Poll: 1/5th of Americans have an inflated sense of their own importance.

"Mister Spock is on his fanny, sir. Reports heavy damage."

They import some sort of elk/antelope-ish animals from Africa for the Packers to hunt.

1) Do the Packers really need to prove they can pack, um, some kind of meat??

2) Does Brett Favre have some kind of kudu fetish??

3) WTF kind of incredibly bizarre work-perk is that, to have a private African antelope HUNTING PRESERVE?? Like, are the free soda machines and the trainers and the people who carry your luggage not enough?

4) Is the road really really really REALLY far away from the preserve itself? Because, when I was a kid, sometimes dumbass out-of-state hunters would pull over by the side of the highway, and shoot at wildlife, and be shooting into people's back yards. (These dumbasses were promptly arrested.) In this case, I would be worried about people getting rifle bullets through their windshields.

5) I repeat, WTF???

See? I gave everybody here an opportunity to tell me what a bad person I am and nobody did, because I fuckin' rule.

Cruise's publicist has already issued a sternly-worded denial of the breakup. Way to spoil our fun, bastard!

Also, poor Katie! I was almost so happy for her!

Someone on Gawker commented:

Interesting that Tom will sue over the slightest gay rumor but claim that he is leaving his baby mamma and all you get is a publicist's denial.

It does tend to be leaner than beef, so it's more heart healthy.

There's a big-ass fence that makes it obvious that it's private land.

The other side of the road is swamp, but cars sometimes park on little side parking areas to go hunting. I've never heard of cars in deerhunting areas getting shot. You're much more likely to see panicky deer (trying to get away from the hunters) running across the road. (Car/deer kills go way up during hunting season.)

It's five thousand for kissing, ten thousand for snuggling... End of list.

Where is this drive and shoot story? I keep googling but can't find it.

In any case, it's not the same thing as driving to find big game-- they're ground birds. You're not doing the hunting from the car, you're driving to somewhere to start flushing them. There's no need to move far away from your car or motorcade or whatever except that you wouldn't want to hit the car. Maybe that's illegal in Texas, but I can't see why if you're on private property. So I wouldn't agree that it's necessarily wussy to flush quail near the car. It's not like tracking elk or something.
