Dirty Red Commie

   As many of you already know I have terrible luck when it comes to cars.  Sadly, I was in another accident and my car -new- is totalled.  So, I'm once again out car shopping.  I really want something with rediculous gas mileage like a Prius.  But, I don't know if I really like them.  I haven't heard anything bad about them. Except , I found out the recommended max weight of passengers & cargo is 800 lb which means I need to meet 4 REALLY small people I could take places. Not to mention, I find them kind of pretentous with their look at me I love the enviroment cause it trendy blah, blah, blah. 

   Basiclly, I'm just bitching but if anyone has any suggestions on this whole car shopping situation I'm all ears. 

When the world's gone crazy, let Mad Magazine be your guide.

The secret reason for War, Pestulance, and the other riders is a million monkeys, which is something we all knew anyway, but monkeys rule, right?  Cracked.com explains the Monkeysphere, which is all around us, even now in this very room.

 Is an account of internal struggles to draw a line between torture and proper treatment procedures for detainees.  It's a good read - if somewhat of a letdown, we all know how this fight ended - and enlightens us mere mortals outside of the Beltway to executive policy-making trends.
