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

“This is a betrayal of Islam and the entire Afghan nation by our government,” said Hamiddullah, a senior cleric in Kabul. “This will have very dangerous consequences for the government. Muslim leaders will react very strongly.”

A cleric in northern Kunduz town, Ubuiddullah, said, “We will protest this. We are very angry.”

What's so terrible that made them so mad? They weren't allowed to kill that guy who converted to Christianity.

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

Please give me all yours.

Nah, I think I'll keep on exchanging them for goods & services. That way I don't have to look at them and I get new toys.

Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.

Call Jess Aaron Burr...

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

The really scary thing is that even the moderates seem to want him dead.

I don't like the new $10s either -- they don't look like money.

They look like someone tried to counterfeit money using that weird orange news stock that some papers have.

Cool sculpture. Not entirely worksafe (even though it appears to be wearing clothing).

This piece was inspired by H.P. Lovecraft with an extra healthy dose of squid and crab thrown in for good measure. She is painted with an iridescent 3 tone paint job, with clear urethane tentacles and spines.

The shadow of the moon falls on Earth as seen from the International Space Station, 230 miles above the planet, during a total solar eclipse at about 4:50 a.m. EST March 29. This digital photo was taken by the Expedition 12 crew, who are wrapping up a six-month mission on the ISS. Visible near the shadow are portions of Cyprus in the Mediterranean Sea and the coast of Turkey.

Cool - looks like a giant black blob attacking the Earth....

Our wings are not tired.

It seems to work for the current administration to have news centered around the Afghan dude being at risk for loving Jesus, or changes in staff at the White House. Anything to distract attention from Iraq news. Or Abramoff news, or interest rates for that matter.

OTOH, it could be a problem with his christian right base. I think some are questioning why we have troops in Iraq if we're going to create a government that want to sentence people to death for being christian.
