Telecom Amnesty Bill Tomorrow
Hmm, I wikipediaed the Nuremberg Defense, but it only seems to apply to international law and the UCMJ - neither of which apply here - so I guess God bless you and full speed ahead, congressional fucktards.

Want a Kaffiyeh with that Donut?
I always knew there was something fishy about our President, but until Ms. Malkin pointed out the subtle and cunning new face of insidiobliminacy, I never quite realized how dangerous his refusal to drink alcohol is. Muslims don't drink!!!! His statement may seem insignificant, but when it leads to the mainstreaming of violence -- unintentionally or not -- it matters! Ignorance is no longer an excuse.

Simply click Start->Settings->Control Panel->Network Connections->Your Network Adapter. Then, simply scroll down the list and highlight Internet Protocol (TCP/IP), and click Advanced. Now you can set up a static IP!

(a) the original Lancet study was seriously flawed
(b) this study is seriously flawed
(c) 400,000 or so people have died between the first study and the second study.

The Meyer Lansky of hip-hop
He's been around for a long time, and he's a great producer. He's got his underground credentials, but he makes lots of good pop beats that get popular, so I can kinda see his point.
