Week in Review
File under week 12 of 2008
Welcome to Spring (it issnowinga freaking blizzard outside again and we expect 3 – 6 inches of the white stuff before the end of the night. Just damn!) It is also Good Friday and Purim and a Full Moon.
Tibet Protests were in the news a lot this week. With the Olympics just a few months away, things in China will get interesting. Tibet deserves it’s freedom, but the Chinese seem bent on assimilation and resistance may be futile.
They are out looking at the Barker ranch this week for more of the Manson Family victims. And you thought this story was long over. Maybe Charlie himself killed someone after all?
The story that made me go “OMG” was this one about a woman in France that wanted assisted suicide. Here is her picture so you will know why and understand.
Face Tumor ladyCarve yet another notch in the Clinton Belt of Mystery with the disappearance of the guy who built the Clinton Library. At least they found Vince Foster, eh?
As far as headlines this week, this one takes the prize. How is that even possible? I wonder if her new anus works as well as her old one?
It was not a good week to be a Bear Sterns stockholder; nor a Bear Stearns employee or customer. It was a very good week if you are Jamie Dimon at JP Morgan Chase.
It was a slow week for Fucktardary, but at least we have naked maurauder, Nicholas Hadzick, who went on a rampage in PA sans clothing. Yep, Nicky is our Fucktard of the Week.
Excited for the Big Tournament yet? I am not picking the Bulldogs, but this is a great story. I think the four top seeds will go all the way to the Final Four for the first time ever. Too bad for Coppin State.
From the “no way” files comes this story about a dolphin who did what humans could not: save a couple of whales. From the “I hate it when that happens” files comes this story about an eagle ray that jumped from the water and killed a woman. I guess her time was up.
People thought there was no way a tornado could hit Atlanta. They were wrong.
Happy healthy weekends to all.
I got Georgetown going all the way.
They are likely to win it all.
The weather is de-fucking-pressing. Every flake cuts my soul like a razor and I thought we were done with this shit.
Come to the Carolinas. It was 38 this morning and it will probably be in the low 70’s by this afternoon.
But we do get Atlanta-like storms.
So do we. Someday, one will hit Chicago directly and it will be very very bad. If it was 70 here today, I would run naked thru the streets.
Are we the only ones working today?
It’s going to be 65 today and I will run naked around the capital at lunch.
cj: You will not. I expect to see you on the national news tonight iffin you do. Maybe you can make FOTW like our friend Nicky did.
Trench: The phones are real dang quiet…
That’s why I’m taking Monday off.
Okay, I won’t do it today then, but someday I will. I think when Nicky got naked the real beast in him came out..as well as other parts of his body.
I’ve actually been working all week. Nice WIR FB!
I still can’t figure out why we do all this business with China, yet I can’t buy a freaking Cuban Cigar!
Tumor face lady is disturbing.
I’ve got lots of teams to root for this year in the tourny…plus it was nice watching Duke battle for their lives the first round…then lose yesterday : ) Go Vols, Badgers, and Wesern Ky….in that order.
And yesterday it was 76 here…the bass are coming in to spawn and I caught 9 yesterday (all within 1-5 feet of the bank) on a buzz bait. The biggest was only 3.6 though…the smallest was about 2. Glad I don’t have your weather!
Dang, it must be time for me to find another business reason to get to Dallas so I can go fishing with ZC again. Thanks for the nice comments. Glad to hear you are working. Happy with the job? Do you miss being a stay at home person?
Georgetown went down in flames last night to Davidson! Sorry Trench.
I’m still working with my buddy that owns a moving company. The money is nice (its all cash and under the table) but I would prefer to be fishing. The other nice thing is…he doesn’t give pee tests as he would have to fire himself : )
Nice.
