Here we go again.
Press the Meat might actually be interesting, as the potato-headed one hosts dismissed U.S. Attorneys David Iglesias and John McKay, plus Senate Judiciary Committee members, Dick Durbin & Arlen “why don’t you just shut the fuck up already” Specter. And then Bill Bradley is on to hawk his book.
Over on CBS, it’s pretty much the same theme, as bush buddy Bobby Schieffer hosts Pat “why doesn’t Arlen Specter just shut the fuck up already” Leahy, Lindsey “Huckleberry” Graham (both of the Senate Judiciary Committee), shitcanned US Attorney Bud Cummins, and the man who puts the “premium” in the NY Times Select, the ever craptacular David Brooks.
On Fux News Sunday, Weaselface Wallace hosts a show about – you guessed it – the fired US Attorneys, and how our brave president is standing up for truth, justice, and the American way by refusing to allow his minions to testify publicly under oath. Most people think it’s because he knows they’re going to lie, but it’s actually because he’s terrified that they’ll tell the truth. Anyhow Fuxface Wallace only rates one Senate Judiciary member, the accidental Democrat, Dianne Feinstein, but he does score an audience with Senator Brylcreem® himself, Trent Lott. Also on, former DOJ Prosecutor Sharon “Weeb” Eubanks, who was forced to throw the tobacco lawsuit because of Bush political appointee pressure.
On Goebbels, in his first interview since making the announcement that he had no announcement to make (and one of only two senators to vote against revoking the Attorney General’s authority to appoint US Attorneys without Senate approval, it’s crazy wingnut (supposed Iraq War stance or not) Chuck Hagel. And George Snufalufagus reunites the Axis of Drivel at the Roundtable, as Sam :omg: Donaldson, Cokie “the Hag” Roberts, and George :jerk: Will get together to pass the gas that passes for political commentary. Then, Lisa Ling (who, it turns out, is not a Panda bear) is on because Asian chicks are hot.
Over at Crappy News Network, Wolf Blitzer’s Late Emission includes Samir “Some Sunny Day” Sumaidaie (Iraqi Ambassador to the U.S.), Judiciary Committee member Orrin “down the” Hatch, Bill Nelson of Florida, John “coo-coo cah choo” Bolton, scumbag Lanny Davis, Mr Victoria Toestink, Joey “big pussy” DiGenova, the woman who helped to engineer a razor-thin popular vote victory of one of the smartest people in politics over one of the dumbest, Donna Brazile, former RNC Chairman, Ed “Justin, please shut that closet door” Gillespie, and CNN bottle-blonde hack, Dana Bash.
Later, on 60 Minutes, if you want to see John and Elizabeth Edwards, you’ll have to suffer through CBS Anchortwit Katie Couric doing the interview. Also, Morley Safer chats with former Tyco CEO Dennis Kozlowski (he may be in prison, but he’ll always have those memories of his wife’s birthday party in Sardinia), and Bob Simon “goes one-on-one” with “reformed” Jihadist, Hassan Butt (hey, with a name like that, who can blame him).
Of course, all this is just to kill time until the season finale of Battlestar Galactica. Two weeks to the return of the Sopranos.
Enjoy your Sunday.

Welcome to Planet Earth
Credit: Apollo 17 Crew, NASA
Explanation: Welcome to Planet Earth, the third planet from a star named the Sun. The Earth is shaped like a sphere and composed mostly of rock. Over 70 percent of the Earth’s surface is water. The planet has a relatively thin atmosphere composed mostly of nitrogen and oxygen. The above picture of Earth, dubbed Blue Marble, was taken from Apollo 17 in 1972 and features Africa and Antarctica. It is thought to be one of the most widely distributed photographs of any kind. Earth has a single large Moon that is about 1/4 of its diameter and, from the planet’s surface, is seen to have almost exactly the same angular size as the Sun. With its abundance of liquid water, Earth supports a large variety of life forms, including potentially intelligent species such as dolphins and humans. Please enjoy your stay on Planet Earth.

Domino’s Pizza magnate Tom Monaghan is using a large slice of his fortune to build a Catholic university in southwest Florida, exciting conservative Catholics with his dream of an academically first-class institution that is also solidly orthodox.
But along the way, he has produced lots of controversy — first over his plan for a surrounding town in which contraceptives would not be available, then over his insistence on transplanting a successful law school from Michigan to the new campus on the edge of Florida’s Corkscrew Swamp.
Last week, Monaghan caused consternation even among ardent supporters by summarily firing, then quickly rehiring, a renowned Jesuit priest who is a friend, former student and English-language publisher of Pope Benedict XVI.

City Police Spied Broadly Before G.O.P. Convention
For at least a year before the 2004 Republican National Convention, teams of undercover New York City police officers traveled to cities across the country, Canada and Europe to conduct covert observations of people who planned to protest at the convention, according to police records and interviews.

Good Morning. :joe: Thanks for posting that clip Andy, I was looking for it.
Hey, my cell phone appears to have healed itself. Just when I was getting psyched to get a new one. Oh, well, I’m worried about getting a fancy-schmancy new one that they can spy on me with. They can spy on me plenty with the one I already have.
No problem Krista
😮 my phone has gps and it doesnt do anything with it that i know of im sure the cia can track me with it though
THE LAST OF THE INDEPENDENTS
When Tower Records went under last year, few people were surprised. With online sales and illegal downloads on the rise, neighborhood music retailers of all sizes have felt the squeeze. Take into account added pressure from the big-box stores and rising rents, and many of the Bay Area’s independent record shops — if not already gone — are endangered. Meet some of the survivors and find out what’s keeping them alive.
Photos for you music store nostalgiacs…
Oh, yeah, they can track you if it’s turned on. It’s it’s got the web and stuff, they can also push out a firmware update to turn it into an always-on microphone. If it doesn’t have GPS, it’s required to have position location, which isn’t quite as accurate as GPS, but can get them pretty darn close (especially if you’re in an area that has a few cell towers – which is most places these days).
I could just imagine what they’d get if my phone became an always on microphone…especially in the car… :rofl2:

Thanks for that article Vern. My friend will probably be looking for another line of work by summer after running record stores his whole life. Downtown Tempe is going through another, huge growth spurt but everytime it does it loses some of its character and becomes more corporate. The buildings are getting taller down here and the rents are too high. I wish I had been better about taking pictures of this area throughout the time I’ve lived here. It’s changed a lot.

A less sophisticated but common method is to use a discarded soda can and puncture several small holes on the side of the can near its bottom. Tobacco ash is then placed in the divot created with the drug placed on top. The mouthpiece is the original opening of the can, creating a cost-effective alternative to a proper crack pipe.

For your clothes here’s a pretty flower
Die on organic poison gas
Serpents egg’s already hatched
You will crack, you little clown
When you mess with President Brown

As long as we’re talking music, I picked up the Amy Winehouse CD yesterday and have not been able to stop listening to it. I think we may have a love connection here. :love:
AMY WINEHOUSE LYRICS
Rehab
They tried to make me go to rehab but I said ‘no, no, no’
Yes I’ve been black but when I come back you’ll know know know
I ain’t got the time and if my daddy thinks I’m fine
He’s tried to make me go to rehab but I won’t go go go
I’d rather be at home with ray
I ain’t got seventeen days
Coz there’s nothing
There’s nothing you can teach me
That I can’t learn from mr hathaway
I didn’t get all lucky at class
But I know it don’t come in a shot glass
They tried to make me go to rehab but I said ‘no, no, no’
Yes I’ve been black but when I come back you’ll know know know
I ain’t got the time and if my daddy thinks I’m fine
He’s tried to make me go to rehab but I won’t go go go
The man said ‘why do you think you here’
I said ‘I got no idea
I’m gonna, I’m gonna lose my baby
so I always keep a bottle near’
He said ‘I just think you’re depressed,
I said “Yes, baby, and the rest”
They tried to make me go to rehab but I said ‘no, no, no’
Yes I’ve been black but when I come back you’ll know know know
I ain’t got the time and if my daddy thinks I’m fine
He’s tried to make me go to rehab but I won’t go go go
I don’t ever wanna drink again
I just ooh I just need a friend
I’m not gonna spend ten weeks
have everyone think I’m on the mend
It’s not just my pride
It’s just til these tears have dried
They tried to make me go to rehab but I said ‘no, no, no’
Yes I’ve been black but when I come back you’ll know know know
I ain’t got the time and if my daddy thinks I’m fine
He’s tried to make me go to rehab but I won’t go go go

Thanks, Kevin,
This was on my short list.

pj chk out the new samsung phone that opens regular and also sidewise to reveal that the phone keys are also querty….
in traffic from nyc….again
Yeah, I saw that phone. Looks cool, but I have no real use for it. I need a phone that’s a phone, and that’s about it. I’m sure as hell not gonna pay for an expensive data plan. Truth be told, I rarely even need the phone part, but it’s nice to know I can call AAA if the car breaks down out in the middle of nowhere.
Amy Winehouse sounds awesome, Kevin. I may download something.
In the past few days alone, Democrats have challenged Attorney General Alberto R. Gonzales, and by extension the White House, not only on the firings and the national security letters, but also on the agency’s record of civil rights enforcement, the accusation of political interference in tobacco litigation and redistricting cases, the status of pending corruption cases, and Mr. Gonzales’s role in halting an in-house inquiry into the domestic surveillance program.
Lawmakers in both parties have said mounting dissatisfaction with his department is at the heart of Mr. Gonzales’s loss of support on Capitol Hill. In the eyes of many in the House and Senate, the mishandling of the prosecutors was not an isolated incident. Some even consider the extensive use of national security letters a more fundamental threat to the attorney general’s continuing tenure, since Republicans are as unhappy about it as Democrats.

A sea otter shares the waters of Alaska’s foggy Prince William Sound with a spill-containment vessel nearly a decade after the Exxon Valdez ran aground and fouled these pristine waters with 11 million gallons (40 million liters) of crude oil. Intense clean-up efforts after the disaster lasted more than four years.
Now, evidence of the spill is hard to detect. But some beaches still have Valdez oil buried just below the surface. And scientists say some animal species, including sea otters, harbor seals, harlequin ducks, and herring, have yet to recover from the spill’s negative effects.
