Porkeys had a message about censorship?

Sorry. Haven't seen that since it came out. I vaguely remember bits of it - someone had his headlight smashed, and some kids were chased out of some whorehouse....

Ah, the things that make me feel better. From today's Pundit Kitchen:

And my favorite comment:

When a daddy M1A2 and a Mommy M1A2 love each other very much, expensive military hardware is needlessly destroyed. Ahh the miracle of life done by machines of death.

This should go on the Fail blog: “Extinct” Bird Seen, Eaten

An extremely rare bird was photographed by a TV crew in the Philippines in January, just before it was sold at a poultry market.

Found only on the island of Luzon, Worcester’s buttonquail was known solely through drawings based on dated museum specimens collected several decades ago.

Scientists had suspected the species—listed as “data deficient” on the International Union for Conservation of Nature’s 2008 Red List—was extinct.

I read somewhere else that it was the TV crew that sold it to be eaten, after they were done shooting their report.

Reminds me how the first coelacanth to be found was also sold and eaten....

For librarians and their groupies:

It's over!

This year's Pimp my Bookcart contest had nearly a hundred submissions from all around the world. They came from schools, libraries, a book store, and a jail. There were carts made by kids, teenagers, and adults. They were higher-quality than ever, which made judging extremely difficult. We're not exaggerating when we say that our shortlist was in the dozens. We finally hunkered down in an undisclosed location in Indianapolis and argued well into the night. In the end we followed our hearts.

Tommy, I suspect you and I troll through very similar websites.

Yep. According to imdb, it was Porky's 2: The Next Day. There was also a message against the KKK.

Maybe. I found both the bookcart thing and the extinct bird thing in Neatorama.

I think my favorite part is this:

Now, in the interview, senator Buttars also talks about a certain type of reported gay sexual activity which he claims is taking place.

But ABC 4 does not consider that appropriate for its news content.

No, it's not appropriate to broadcast or post... just to titillate!

Oh yeah, I remember the naked KKK members being paraded about. Which I found gratuitous.

I'm going off to lunch in a bit. I think I'll have the New York strip steak.

Mmmm... asparagus. With steak on top of it....
