Best Marketing Tie-In EVAR!

Well, I feel as though I’ve been moaning about politics too much lately, so instead I’ll just register my happiness at finding “Darth Mix” Dark Side of the Force Dark Chocolate M&Ms. I personally couldn’t give a flying flip about Episode III, but dark chocolate is always good, even if it’s evil dark chocolate. And they picked cool colors too.

Anyway, that’s been the highlight of my day so far. Which should tell you something about the sorts of weekends I typically have.

Sorry, I Meant, "’Total Fucking Lunatics’ to the Right"

No, I don’t usually get my news and political insight from Rolling Stone. Yet if even half of this is true, it reinforces my point that any and all sane Republicans remaining should go and form another party and let these totally frightening morons flounder in their own ignorance, bigotry and hate.

Oh, and by the way:

GO HEELS!

That is all.

How refreshing that 82% of Americans can actually agree on something. Namely that Congress should have stayed the hell out of the Schiavo case. This whole debacle has shown us that the Republicans cater to the “Religious Right” far too much, and the Democrats haven’t the guts to state an opinion.

Wouldn’t this be a nice time for a third party? And no, I’m not talking about any of the existing ones.

Nobody asked me, but:

Terri Schiavo’s husband is her next of kin. That should be all that matters. Yet it seems as though many of our Congresspeople have conveniently forgotten all about that “sanctity of marriage” bologna they’ve been yapping about since before the election.

Merely an observation.

No, no, no, uh-uh. Nope. Sorry. No way. No, no, no, no, no, no.

Andre Agassi and Roger Federer play tennis at a rather perilous altitude.

As someone on Fark.com said, you have to have a lot of balls to play there.

It’s a double-entendre, y’see? Ahh, just click the link already.

New DoubleBarberSpeak

Apparently, the phrase “please leave some length in the back” now means “please leave no part of the back of my neck unexposed, indeed shave off everything below the midpoint of my ears.”

At least he at last vanquished the extreme part I had been developing which was turning into a completely unnecessary comb-over.

Goodnight Johnny

and farewell.

Heads!

Rosencrantz and Guildenstern are Dead is FINALLY, 15 years after its theatrical release, coming to DVD.

Nobody I ever shared this movie with liked it. Hell, Roger Ebert gave it zero stars, a fact which has always made me question his critical eye.

It will just have to be my own guilty pleasure, then. So there.

Supreme Court Gets Off To A Nice Start

One day in and the US Supreme Court has already made a couple of nice decisions. They’re not going to reconsider the legality of the do-not-call list. Sorry, telemarketers! They’re also not going to reconsider the case of former Alabama Supreme Court Doofus Roy Moore, and his big rock. (Can’t find a link for that at the moment, but I know I heard it on the radio a little bit ago.)

Two high fives to the Big Nine!
