Can global warming prevent a new Cold War?

It seems President Bush is tap dancing on a nuclear landmine with Russia. First, talks of putting missiles at strategic locations around the former Soviet Union, then a comment that Russia is backsliding on it's democratic reforms. With the US war on terror in full swing and those two issues out in the open, I'm guessing that Russia probably fears becoming a renewed enemy of the US. I can smell a new arms race brewing, especially when you toss in the now infamous speech by President Bush several years ago.

Rise of the Machines

Like a bad prequel to the Terminator movies, Japan is leading the way to world domination by man-bots.

Vick in the news. Again.

Vick is just surrounded by misfortune.

Best Jail Photo EVER

I have to admit, Paris knows how to work a camera.

Local politics-why do I love it?

Here you go. Enjoy this blurb from an Athens Banner Herald article on congressional candidate, Paul Broun Jr. who was caught soliciting donations in anticipation of former congressman Charlie Norwood's death from cancer:

Broun sent out letters more than a year before Norwood's death stating his
intention to run should Norwood retire or run for governor but Norwood found out
about it...When Broun told Norwood at church that he'd been praying for him, Norwood replied, "Well, as you can see, your prayers ain't been answered, 'cause I'm still breathing," according to [John] Stone.

"Mamaaaaaa just killed a mannnnnnn..."

I'm sure people have wanted to shoot me too when I sang "Bohemian Rhapsody."

Here's the top 3 famous or infamous of the week:

His house of cards is already collapsing

Uh-oh. I think Michael Vick's already starting his fall. That only took an hour. Let's see what the next couple of days has in store.

I love using the word jet-setter in a conversation

I like to string together random words that would never get used together to describe a person, so this next sentence is dear to my heart. The issue with the jet-setting, TB-infected, personal injury lawyer from UGA (now that's a combination) shows that the world is becoming smaller, it's still easy to sneak into the country, and people can always be expected to do the worst thing possible in a bad situation. This little drama reminds me of 12 Monkeys. If you have never seen it, you should. It may foster an irrational fear of airports, mad scientists, disease, crazy people, and time travel, but it well worth the ride.

Again, and again, and again

Michael Vick has become one of my hobbies now. I just like to see just how much trouble one athlete can get into. I think Vick is in it up to his neck. We'll see how NFL Commissioner Goodell handles the situation since he's been cracking down on the bad boys of the NFL.
