I came across this blog that I think Feste would enjoy. Lots of Doctory stuff there. Keen story about that Doc getting sued for the first time and ”losing his virginity”.

In case anyone was worried about the foreskin of Jesus Christ (I, for one, was not), it has apparently been stolen. I wonder if He ever lost His virginity? Did He have to suffer purgatory before being admitted to heaven? What ever happened to the Land of Nod? If it was East of Eden and had people, were Adam and Eve the first people on the planet or not? Where did the people of Nod come from if not from Adam and Eve? Those Cainites must have been right tired after all that wandering. Oh the things that puzzle the mind. I have questions dangit.

We have another undeniable Fucktard of the Week in the form of Matthew Murray who opened fire at a Colorado church and a church training facility. He may have planned to kill more people. Let’s hope the competition for FOTW is a little less definitive next week, although Matthew did get some competition from some shooters in Nevada. A former member of this not so illustrious club was sentenced this week when Vicktard got 23 months for dog fighting. Was it enough? Will he play again in the NFL? Stay tuned. Bolingbrook, IL former cop seargeant, Drew Peterson makes a return trip as a FOTW now that he has set up defenddrew.com. Give us a break.

I found this list of the worst employees of the year to be kinda interesting.

The list of inductees in the Rock and Roll HOF was announced this week and, once again, RUSH is snubbed. Bastards. I plan to continue to boycott the HOF until and unless RUSH gets their due.

In other news from the sports world, it looks like The Cubs will get Fukudome. That is not some sort of domed stadium where one goes to fornicate with oneself or Chicago’s answer to shitty weather in October, but the name of a Japanese player who currently bats .350. The Cubs need a guy like Fukudome. I reckon the real question about baseball this week is will it survive the latest steroid scandal?

The midsection of the county was nearly shut down Tuesday with a massive ice storm that stretched from Texas to Michigan. We had about a quarter inch of ice on everything, but we didn’t let it slow us down at all. This morning, New England awoke to about a foot of snow. Good for them. Better for us.

I guess it is just a play on words, but this was my favorite headline of the week. Boo hiss. Good luck Alex in your recovery! This was also a great headline and I just hate it when that happens.

How does this sound as a way to prevent DUI?

Members of the Maricopa County DUI chain on a work detail as deputies guard them Tuesday, Dec. 11, 2007 in Phoenix, Az.. Men convicted of drunken driving will don bright pink shirts and perform burials of people who died of alcohol abuse as part of a new chain gang in Phoenix. A sheriff’s dept. spokesman said the DUI chain gang is the first ever that’s dedicated to one type of crime.

This week, we learned that rock and roll can age gracefully when Led Zeppelin took the stage in London on Monday night. I wish I had been there. I hope there is a high quality video out there for purchase…from what little I have seen and heard, it was an important event in R&R history.

Guess who went and finished their college degree from Alabama this week? That’s right, Joe Willy Namath himself will be a college grad as of tomorrow. Well done Broadway Joe. Nice example you set there. Just show up sober and don’t ask the dean for a kiss when they hand you the diploma.

Happy healthy weekends to all.
