Mandela still alive after embarrassing Bush remark - Yahoo! News

WTF does this even MEAN? I feel like Lewis Black...
"If it weren't for my horse... I never would have spent that year in college." I swaer, sometimes I think I'm going to start screaming and never stop.


Mandela still alive after embarrassing Bush remark - Yahoo! News: "'I heard somebody say, Where's Mandela?' Well, Mandela's dead because Saddam Hussein killed all the Mandelas,' Bush, who has a reputation for verbal faux pas, said in a press conference in Washington on Thursday."

Salamander Tongue Is World's Most Explosive Muscle

http://news.nationalgeographic.com/news/2007/03/070309-salamander.html
This is pretty hot:

The greatest burst of power from any animal muscle comes from the tongue of a tropical salamander, scientists have announced.

The giant palm salamander of Central America (Bolitoglossa dofleini) captures fast-moving bugs with an explosive tongue thrust that releases over 18,000 watts of power per kilogram of muscle.
...
Much like an arrow shot from a bow, Deban said, the giant palm salamander's bony tongue is launched with an initial burst of energy and flies forward under its own momentum.

Ladies, go get yourselves a giant palm salamader!

Texas should be cordoned off

City attorney, bin Laden at high noon in city park?
The Lufkin Daily News
Wednesday, August 29, 2007

After six years, Lufkin City Attorney Bob Flournoy says enough is enough and has challenged Osama bin Laden to prove within the next 13 days that he's still alive.

Flournoy has worn the same star-spangled tie since the day after the 9/11 attacks six years ago. The tie, which he bought at the Republican National Convention in 2000, is made up of the same red, white and blue that covers the American flag. As a symbol of his patriotism, Flournoy swore that he would not take the tie off until Osama bin Laden had been captured or was dead.

However, in light of six years and no sign of bin Laden, Flournoy has decided that the man behind the 9/11 attacks must already be dead.

"I believe that he is in an unmarked grave somewhere in those mountains near Tora Bora," Flournoy said. "If he were alive, we would have heard from him because he is an egotistical maniac, ruthless and hell-bent on destroying America and American's way of life."

takes one to know one I guess

When Flournoy first promised to wear the tie, he did so under the assumption that it would only take a couple of weeks to find bin Laden. However, when the weeks and years passed, he stayed true to his promise and has not worn any other tie. The tie is so tattered and dirty today that recently Flournoy has resigned himself to wearing sweaters in the 100-degree heat just to hide it.

Not unlike the ways BushCo has tried to hide their catastrophic failures... uncomfortable, inappropriate, blatantly obvious and quite stinky

"It looks like Francis Scott Key's Star-Spangled Banner," Flournoy said. "It is faded, worn and tattered. It has been reworked, patched and pieced together. Velcro has been added around the neck because it is too fragile to tie and untie. It is smaller and even a little smelly, but it is still a grand old flag. Betsy Ross would be proud."

Yeah, um, about what exactly? That you've abused a symbol of America by getting your lunch on it everyday for 6 years?

Flournoy said he has had enough of waiting for proof of bin Laden's death. He thinks his friends and those around him every day will be very happy once he stops wearing the tie.

"Flies kind of gather around me, and I don't have quite as many friends," Flournoy said.
In an effort to end the suffering of those around him, Flournoy has given bin Laden the ultimatum.

What about ending the suffering of the IRAQI PEOPLE or OUR TROOPS ?

"If Bin Laden is alive, I challenge him to prove it by Sept. 11, 2007," Flournoy said. "If he does not come forward with some proof, I am personally going to declare him dead, and I will be able to take off my tie and give it a proper burial."

Guy should CLEARLY be picked up as a Bush advisor. Attorney General's open. All residents of Fantasyland may apply.

Flournoy promised that if he receives the $50 million reward for capture of bin Laden, he will share it with everyone in Lufkin for putting up with his promise to not change his tie.

"If by chance Bin Laden is not dead and proves it by Sept. 11th, I offer to meet him, man to man, at the park at City Hall and fight him to the death of one of us," Flournoy said. "He just can't kill Americans and get away with it."

C'mon out, Bin Laden, or should I say, "Been Called Out" Yeah, I said it! Yeee haw!

Flournoy doubts his challenge will reach Tora Bora, but wants a way to put his tattered old flag tie to rest once and for all.

"It's been fun, but the fun's about to end," Flournoy said.

Yes, commemorating the deaths of thousands is always real hoot.
