Britney Experiences Vancouver's Charm... Secondhand

Evidently Ms. Spears has never held a concert in Vancouver before... or been to a park in Vancouver... or been to the beach in Vancouver... or walked on the street in Vancouver... or gone to the opera in Vancouver... or been to an old folks home in Vancouver... or... well, I think you get my point - they smoke a lot of weed:

Post show statement: "Let us remind you this was a Britney Spears concert, not a Phish show — did you guys really need a doobie to get through 'Toxic'?"

Clearly Britney's never listened to her own music sober or she'd know the answer to that question...

Sister Nobili Wasn't Like The Other Nuns... Mostly Because of the Gratuitous Nudity

"... the transformation from podium lap dancer to nun happened gradually."

Just how does that work? Did she start in a g-string and end in a habit?

Now That You Mention It, Limbaugh DOES Look a Little Like Goebbles

Who am I kidding, there's nothing little about Limbaugh... he looks more like he just ate Goebbles.

Anywho, I'm really ecstatic to hear that at least some people who listen to Limbaugh have the gall to call him up and read him the riot act. So long as the bile that Rush spews is continued to be viewed as infallible by Republicans, the more the GOP will descend from a national party into a fear-mongering, fringe party; and that's entirely unhealthy for the future of American democracy.

P.s. I have no idea what Rush's "Operation Chaos" was all about, but it kind of sounds like something that Butters' alter ego would come up with.

Enjoy!

If At First You Don't Succeed: Fail, Fail Again

Brilliant strategy for Team USA to employ in 2010. As a masochistic Leaf fan I have no doubt this will pay similar dividends and give the players of Team USA plenty of time to see the sights in Vancouver and not be distracted with pesky things like playing hockey when it really counts:

On a related note, I hear golf courses are opening up in and around Toronto. Thank goodness for that, I'd hate for my Leafs to have too much downtime during the playoffs this year.

Church and State to Separate? Will Share Custody of GOP

With the future of the religious movement in a state of flux I think this article's worth a gander. Religion's a very personal thing and when it comes down to it more effective on the individual or community level than at a national, political lobbying level.
