I'm not going to say much about this except that:
A) This is sort of like a Europe-wide American Idol, but a little different.
AND
B) The word on the internets is that this guy is going to win.
Enjoy.

The Republicans are Imploding. For Real.
Just check out our fellow blogger, Erick, at redstate.com:
The House Republican Leadership just does not get it and they will not take us seriously until we flex our muscle against them. We must fight the House GOP and we must fight today.
Today, I declare war on the Republican Leadership of the United States House of Representatives. We must scalp one member. That member's name is Ken Calvert.
That's right kiddies. Them's fightin' words, and straight out of the mouth of a Republican! Why has the Republican Civil War erupted? Surprise. It's not because of Bush.
Well, a little back story. See, one Republican dirt bag by the name of Rep. John Doolittle of Cal-i-forn-i-a had to leave his spot on the House Appropriations Committee because his house got raided by the FBI. Yep. That's right. So what do the Republicans do? THEY PUT ANOTHER SCUMBAG WITH BAD ETHICS IN HIS SPOT. Ahahahahahahahahahaha! It's kind of like Christmas, no?

As I realize I have been up all night...
...I'm pondering the possibility of what will happen if I don't finish this DAMN research paper. Do I have enough credits to graduate if I fail? Sheesh. It's hard to be this close... somebody serve me a glass of "whine." Thanks.

Do you want to play "Navy Seal?"
These are the words I heard two 8ish-year-old boys utter on my way home from work. Now, I tried to imagine what this game might consist of. The first thing that sprang to my head, was that these kids were going to go grab their daddies' guns and start swinging them around like crazy. I figured that was a little extreme. So then I imagined that they each had a wet suit hanging in his respective closet. I really hoped I might come back down the street seeing the boys in full gear including snorkel and goggles. Then it occurred to me, what if these boys are referring to actual SEALS? LIKE THE ANIMALS? When they said "Navy seal," maybe they meant they were going to pretend to be one of the U.S. military's Marine Mammals used to fight terrorism! Such patriotic little boys.
P.S. I'm not going to Hong Kong. It looks like it might be Shanghai, Japan, or Korea. Wish me luck!

Who's got the cash?
In earlier posts, moplumsy and I have discussed the possibility of buying one's own micronation. Now if you don't have the billion to buy Sealand, why not consider Sibley? Sure, it's not your own country, but a town ain't so bad. Plus, this one will only cost you between 300 and 500 grand.

We are a weird generation...
The NY Times recently did a little poll of some hot-button issues and displayed the results by different age groups. Well, for the 18-29 age range, the results are really frickin' weird. The findings? Let's compare them to our 65 and over counterparts. We support gay marriage and immigration rights by larger margins than the old folks, yet we also support the war in Iraq and abortion RESTRICTIONS more than the old fogies. Hmmmm...
