Bitch Fight Slap Fest
The first salvo of the 2006 gubernatorial race has been fired. While watching the news last night, I just happened to catch Dick DeVos attack ad. The premise of the ad was to slam Granholm for her attack ads. Is it me or have there not been any attack ads by Jen-Jen? I mean I certainly see a lot more DeVos ads than I do ones for Granholm, but I still haven't seen any that attack DeVos. If she hasn't made one the DeVos is a genius. Most people don't pay attention to such things as well as I do, so if he has indeed used some sleight of hand here, then bravo. There's no way I'm voting for him, but I almost hopes he wins since I do a pretty good impression of him.
News and Notes
--Andrea Yates was acquitted in her retrial. I can't believe this needed a second trial. This should've been the exchange at here first trial:
Prosecutor: ...and killed her 5 children by drowning them in the bathtub an-
Jury: Not guilty.
Prosecutor: But these are only the opening arguments...
Jury: Don't care, she's nuts.
Prosecutor: Damn.
Honestly, when you first heard about this what was your first thought? I'm assuming it's gotta be pretty close to mine: "Holy shit, that bitch must be insane."
--Kid Rock and Pam Anderson Lee Anderson are getting married 4 times in 4 different places. Detroit, Nashville, France and California. They plan to celebrate their nuptuals with 4 divorces in September.
--A Brtish company has announced that their vaccine for the Bird Flu that no one is getting will be ready by next year.
--Animal rights activists have their panties in a bunch over a pub in Tasmania that lets customers pour bottles of beer down the throat of two resident pigs. If those damn hippies can think of a better way to make beer bratwurst then I'd like to see it.
--In the last couple of days both Exxon and BP have posted record profits for a quarter. What the hell? You know, it might all be a complete waste of time, but could Congress at least look into limiting profits? I know it's all sour grapes, because if I had the money, I'd be investing in oil...and plastics.
--The makers of Kazaa have agreed to pay $115M to the entertainment industry to settle global piracy lawsuits. What do you mean we didn't pay for those songs? What do you call having 8 different bits of spyware downloaded to your computer? If that's not some sort of payment I don't know what is.
--Al-qaida's #2 man, (he's really gotta change that nickname) Ayman al-Zawahri, has called for a holy war on Israel. A holy war? Wait, tell me when the old one stops. Obviously he's especially unfamiliar with Mideast events over the last 60 years or so.
--In an utterly shocking turn of events, Lance Bass from N'SYNC has reavealed that he is gay and that he is in a "very stable" relationship with a reality show star. Ryan Seacrest was unavailable for comment.
