Shooting victim apologizes to vice president:
I remember hearing this on the radio on my drive home from work today — it was truly a WTF moment…

Speaking of spam, some of these worthless sacks of shit are using a script to load up my guestbook with spam. Fortunately, it was easy to filter out these attempts at posting spam to guesbook (spammers are persistent , but exceedingly dim).

I never gave the Church of the Flying Spaghetti Monster much thought until I spent some time perusing the Church of the Flying Spaghetti Monster web site.
WHY YOU SHOULD CONVERT TO FLYING SPAGHETTI MONSTERISM
- Flimsy moral standards.
- Every friday is a relgious holiday. If your work/school objects to that, demand your religious beliefs are respected and threaten to call the ACLU.
- Our heaven is WAY better. We’ve got a Stripper Factory AND a Beer Volcano.
Looks good to me! 🙂

Fox News wins battle for Cheney interview:
Fox News scored a significant get with the first post-accident interview with Cheney. Because it was the only interview Cheney planned to do on the subject, correspondent Brit Hume said on air Wednesday afternoon: “I felt some obligation to ask as many of the questions as … others would want to ask.”
Was there any doubt Fox News would get this interview? It’s not like Cheney was going to grant, say, Keith Olbermann this interview.
I’ve made some changes to the look of this site. I hope these changes are valuable addition to your modern lifestyle.
Cheney accidentally shoots hunting companion:
WASHINGTON (Reuters) – Vice President Dick Cheney accidentally wounded a companion with shotgun pellets on a weekend quail hunt in Texas, his office said on Sunday.
Cheney’s companion, Harry Whittington, 78, was listed in stable condition after being brought in on Saturday night, said Yvonne Wheeler, a spokeswoman for the Christus Spohn Hospital in Corpus Christi, Texas.
Cheney’s office said Whittington, an Austin lawyer, had been sprayed by birdshot while hunting at the Armstrong Ranch in south Texas.
Alternate headline: Drunk with power, Dick Cheney decides to act out The Most Dangerous Game.
But seriously (updated 2006-02-13):
