You’re gonna love this.  When it comes to gay marriage (or anything else gay), eeewww is not enough.  This is really funny stuff while still making a valid point.

A quick question: Where’s Usama bin Laden?  Considering the CIA recently closed its department that focused solely on hunting him down, I was just wondering if we’d caught him already and I’d just missed the news.  On a related note, how’s that War on Terror™ going?  I mean, aside from the wannabes we keep announcing as having been caught despite their complete inability to pull of a terrorist attack even if we had the U.S. military execute it for them, have we accomplished much insofar as our “dead or alive” target is concerned?  Just askin’.

The price of oil set a new record-high price today.  It’s nice to see we’ve made progress in these past few months.

Louisiana is the 22nd state to ban internet hunting.  That happens to be “the practice of using a mouse click to kill animals on a distant game farm.”  Reprehensible!  Using your computer and the internet to deliberately kill an animal in a canned hunt.  Horrendous, it is, and an unforgivable crime.  Get a knife and bow-and-arrow set and carry your sorry, fat, selfish ass out to the brush and do it yourself.  That way, at least, the animal has a fighting chance to kill you — or at least run from you — before you have the opportunity to arbitrarily murder them in a most abhorrent display of your own weakness and fear.  Bah!  Every state, if not the federal government, should ban this practice outright and forthwith.

How so very cool.  Paleontologists in Australia have discovered fossils believed to be from carnivorous kangoroos and the “demon duck of doom”.  Once I stopped laughing, I realized how cool it was to discover killer marsupials and ducks that probably were meat eaters.  Discovery’s a wonderful thing.

You can’t go wrong with today’s Daily Kitten.  Again, “We are Siamese if you please…”

Becoming a Spiritual Nomad: WOW!  This is quite excellent.  I beg of you, go read it.
