And I can’t wait. Yup, America’s *real* national pasttime is only a few weeks away…

They’re throwing blood and feathers on the head of KFC. And they were joined by has-been Chrissie Hynde for that extra bit of realness. Or something.

John Hawkins has a sorta-review of 28 Days Later that Kim du Toit could be proud of. Heh heh.

PETA wants kids to cut up their parents’ credit cards. Michele thinks that’s a wonderful idea. Not. Also, some asshat changed her name to “GoVeg.com”. I couldn’t make this up.

Patty has what should be the last word on this “Bright” nonsense. Even divorced from those implications, it’s an excellent reflection on being a Christian.

He always will.

What does the Koran really say? Probably not what some would have you think.

Monica was a Mossad agent. This is priceless.

Den Beste has an in-depth nearly Whittle-length outline of the war in Iraq and the situation around it. Recommended reading.

I couldn’t possibly make this up.

Scrappleface goes all sci-fi. Heh heh.

Lance Armstrong is a machine! And kudos to Germany’s Ullrich for being a class act even when the French spectators aren’t.

Cox and Forkum take on the UN.

A new waste of tax money: Bush’s marriage proposal. Don’t miss the snarky (and true) comment from the Cato Institute guy.

Ari’s replacement has his first press conference, with no backup from Buck the Marine.

Here’s a stunning quote from the Krauts.

Here’s my top 5 picks. If you recognize all 5 without using Google, give yourself a gold star.

1) Ronald Reagan
2) Thomas Jefferson
3) Ben Franklin
4) Philo Farnsworth
5) John Vincent Atanasoff

The latest trend (?) Liberal bedwetters are moving to Canada to get free health care and escape from those awful neo-conservatives (read J-E-W-S). I can’t say I’m alarmed by this development, and neither is the Emperor.

To a 6’2″ yoga instructor, no less. (Hat tip: Fark)

A moron was thrown off a plane for wearing a “Suspected Terrorist” button as a form of political protest. I gotta agree with Michele on this – what an asshat.
