The Rocky Horror Picture Show

Happy Halloween! I swore that I saw George W. Bush at a Halloween party in a t-shirt and a pair of jams after a game of table shuffleboard at Christian's Tailgate last night. Perhaps it was a bad impersonation of him or the one of Corey Feldman in the red t-shirt. I couldn't tell except for the uncanny facial features. $2.00 Domestics on tap were overflowing. Surfs Up!

Very dismaying to read that the former American Idol contestant and songstress lost her loved ones yesterday. As always,
a star's tradgedy has very far-reaching effects.

If the Cake Wrecks blog does not horrify you, I really don't know what will. Blogher Inc. brings to you daily doses of awful cake creations in perfect lock step of an unknown sequence. The twenty two hundred contibutors are loathe to get their submission selected and published on the blog. The smart commentary gives you more than a clue or hint about the wicked subject matter. Straight to the toilet. Above, you see a few candles I paid for on Tuesday of this week. Above that, is the Cake Wrecks post for Monday. I don't know how it's done, but can't you see the similarities?

Will Rap for Food

I made a post on a legal blog several months ago however the post did not make it on the firm's website. Instead to my chargrin, I received a curt message from the attorney author stating that she not could grant a request for legal advice. This was late yesterday evening at approximately 10:00 pm. There should have been no equivocation about the intent of my comment on a public website. The author's comment was especially inflamatory and inciteful since the blog post in question discussed the legality of laptop searches made at the United States - Mexico Border. Has this law firm been keep up with Blue Mojito and her travails with the Houston FBI in Quote of the Day? I had to make an assertive comment to make sure that there would be no confusion for a future class of lawyer-bloggers. My uncle sent the above comic to me when I passed the bar exam.

Beyond a Reasonable Doubt

New technology that can depict the inner workings of the brain such as fMRI brain imaging have not been accepted as a precedent or persuasive evidence in the past, however Stanford University's Law and Neuroscience Project funded by the MacArthur Foundation will delve into the legal principles of neurolaw.

Angolagate

Currently on trial in Paris is a 468 page criminal indictment against the creme de la creme of Parisian society for a proxy war in the African nation of Angola during the 1990's. The defendants are accused of violating a United Nations arms embargo by funneling 790 million dollars worth of arms to the embattled nation. Among the names of the accused are son of former French President Francois Mitterand Jean-Cristophe Mitterand, former French Interior Minister Charles Pasqua, French businessman Pierre Falcone, and Israeli Russian billionaire Arcady Gaydamak. As for the United States' role in Angolagate affairs, Vice President Dick Cheney's Halliburton provided a questionable loan to Angola's Import-Export Bank in 1998 before the CIA-backed guerilla leader Jonas Savimbi died at the hands of satellite technology in the Angolan bush. The cream always rises to the top. French businessman Pierre Falcone and his wife ingratiated themselves to American society to by donating to George W. Bush's 2000 campaign through the Falcone's Essante' Corporation a manufacturer of sexual enhancement products.

Social Networking

In the UK social networking sites such as Facebook will be monitored by the government and collected into a database to thwart terrorism. The proposed task has been labeled 'snooping,' and dismissed as Orwellian by opposition parties.

If you were wondering what happened to Harold Ford Jr. after he jumped the broom into the holy land of matrimony with his new wife Emily Threlkeld, you don't have to look any futher. Harold Ford Jr. wrote on a piece in the October 11th Washington Post entitled "Will McCain Do Anything to Win?" about the ad that U.S. Senator Bob Corker ran against him during his losing 2006 Senate race. Forgetting to mention that the television spot was about the pornographers that have contributed to Harold Ford Jr.'s campaigns, the article threw an unecessary barb such as the one he complains about. Ford Jr. is also featured in the October 7th Nashville daily The Tennesean op-ed opposite economist Thomas Sowell on new ideas for expanding national community service. Speaking of barbs and community service, coincidently Beyonce' has an upcomming album and a new video out called "If I Were a Boy." Beyonce' plays a female police officer who shares the locker room with the rest of the boys in the squad. No more House of Dereon and Creole cookbooks with mom? As for me personally, I just started on my own family tree. Around and around the Mayberry bush we go!

Long Shadows

I stand at about almost 5 feet and 7 inches, but my stature casts a shadow that defies the normal. Lately, my shadows might even move, multiply and grow even bigger right before my very eyes. They even wake me at night. No, it is not my mind or my sight, it is the paranormal. Schattenwesen are paranormal silhouettes without discernable features that appear in the peripheries of your eyes. I have burning lighting candles and incense and counting down to October 31st.

What's Wrong with this Picture? Part Three

When he is not moonlighting as an Abercrombie & Fitch employee, Phil Gramm is holding up the wall for the Republican Party as economic co-chairman for John McCain's presidential campaign. The former senator from Texas appears to be a karma chameleon if you take a look at the first picture from his wikipedia article and compare it to the second photo taken in March of this year at Swift Aviation in Phoenix, Arizona with Senator John McCain before a departure for a campaign run through Texas:

Hello Dolly!

Evening the tide crusade against embryonic stem cell research, researchers have been able to generate cells from other sources bodily tissues found in mice testicles and in menstrual blood that may pose individual ethical considerations of their own. The cells derived from spermazoa and menstruation are used to repair and enhance body organ function for a number of afflictions including male infertility, heart disease, spinal cord injury and diabetes. Gross!

Tradewinds blow sternly

Feather lilts on air to me

It falls at my feet
