I wonder how long it will be before he's chastised for wasting energy.

Well, he probably got a free 10 degree increase in ambient temperature from not having Cheney around.

Greece's financial crisis threatens to take down all of Western civilization - a civilization they themselves founded. A rather tragic irony - which is something they also invented. - Jon Stewart

You're never going to get all of it out of the carpet though. Shame it has to go -- Clinton always liked it.

Oh, but when one of us does get knocked up does the Catholic institution for which one works give maternity leave? No. I -- oops, I mean one -- can't even use more than six weeks of sick leave for one's leave time even though vacation time can't be saved up from year to year.

PS: I did not get pregnant while wearing trousers.

Barack The President vs. Barack The Elephant

The night before President Barack Obama’s inauguration, most of the world was getting a good night’s sleep in preparation for a day of heavy celebratory drinking. But things were not so calm at the Ringling Bros. and Barnum & Bailey Center for Elephant Conservation, because on January 19, they welcomed in the birth of a healthy male Asian elephant, who they named Barack in honor of our 44th President. As our tipster Adam writes in “Ringling Bros. names an elephant calf Barack, thus creating a hybrid democrat/republican animal that will lead us to zoopolitical salvation.”

We realize this might be confusing to some of you: Both our President and a brand new baby elephant sharing the same name. So to help stave off that confusion, BWE.tv has created this handy comparison guide for you (plus some bonus pics after the cut.)

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

My poor coworker just sent out an all-staff email announcing that someone will be "severing" as something instead of "serving." Oops.
