This Week in the News - Hot topix & Some Questions.

We don't like Ike
-----------------------
Hurricane Ike heads for Gavelston TX, mass exodus in progress.  20 ft. storm surge anticipated.  After Katrina, people are gun shy of everything in the sky with an eye.  Has America developed an irrational phobia to hurricanes or is it about time people strated taking these things seriously?  Also, should landlubbers and highlanders have to pay for peoples homes detroyed by coastal storms?

Pigs and pitbulls wearing lipstick
------------------------------------------------------------------
Whats up with this trend of lipstick application to domesticated animals and livestock?

er....bud...wise, ribbit
-------------------------------------------
Should America boycott Anheuser-Busch for selling out an American icon to a foreign corporation?  I say yes, what say you?

Ruskies send Bombers to Venezuela - Diplomats Reciprocally Expelled
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Playing tit for tat, Russia all pumped up with oil streoids makes pals with democratically ...(coughbullshitcough)...elected Hugo Mussolini...oops a typo  I mean Hugo Chavez.  The two are poth pals with hitler...oops, another typo, I mean Ahmadinijad.  Is Russia trying to start another cold war?  Cold wars are very profitable don't ch'a know.  High oil prices and weapons for ack ack mad dictators will put Russia back in the red.  Yeah you heard me right, RED!.  The more their ledgers are black, the more their government becomes red, go figgure.

Chinese Communist Attacks in Flushing Queens
-----------------------------------------------------------------
A falun Gong practicioner in Flushing was attacked by a CCP hatemonger.  Rong Shen, a CCP propaganda peddler set up a table in Flushing and attacked a man for no rational reason.  Falun Gong practicioners are true blue pacifists, they are sorta like the Amish when it comes to turning the other cheek, except here in America we don't put Amish in prision and take their organs without a donor card.  How far should the US constitution protect resident aliens in freedom of hatemonger speech?  Should hatemongers be immediatly exported or should they be put in detention facilities and have their organs removed for grey market high bidders?

USA Tip-Toes through Pakistan's Tulips
-----------------------------------------------------
Should the USA go not so gently into the night in cross boarder raids which violates Pakistan's sovereignty?  I say if they have info any more reliable than just cause for Iraq, sure, why not.  Terrorism will not be defeated with national mass denial.  If they are sure or reasonably sure, send in the UAVs and a mop up crew.  The only problem is those pesky civillians, they have a knack getting in the way of bullets and shrapnel meant for Taliban insurgents....oh wait, all Taliban are insurgents even the 12 ear olds toting AK-47s.  Kill em all and let Allah sort em out.

LHC is ready to go, but where?
--------------------------------------------
There has been a lot of talk about the LHC but the funny thing is no one knows what the hell they are talking about.  No matter how smart or dumb a person is, the LHC is STILL theoretical science.   No one knows with certainty what will happen.  Will we get sucked into a black hole, learn new and amaxing thing like the LHC could be scaled down to cook a raw turkey in 5 minutes, or will it be a complete dud?  On a side note, the LHC site was defaced by hackers today.

All politics aside
-----------------------
Who thinks Palin looks hot peering down the barrel of an AR-15?
Are children of politicians fair game or should the news agencies back off?
Should political candidates be grilled on their religious beliefs?

All Politics Fair Game
------------------------------
McCain survives The View.  Oprah still snubbing Palin.  Oprah refuses to have Palin on her show, it is her show after all right?  well, maybe not.  Oprah is an institutionalized cult of personality with far more pull than any other show host.  If people, mostly women who happen to be people also, want to see her on Oprah, what should Opie do?  The will of the people or the will of her selfishness?

Tragedy Strikes NJ Man
-----------------------------------
Scorpio has to learn a new Mac based video editing suite.  He reports that "The keyboard is the same....sorta...but everything else is bass ackwards on a Mac , however, the screen was very sexy".  To add insult to injury, the macho Bikerproductions.com multimedia corp he is working with plans on giving him an iPhone.  Scorp is very concerned that the iPhone may make him sound gay to people on the other end of conversations and begged for a Blackberry.  His boss was quoted as saying "All comrads will be using Apple because Apple is good, Apple is RED".
