Say it with me, people...

George W. Bush is no longer the President.

Say it again.

George W. Bush is not the President.

And we KNOW he's too dumb to head up a huge multinational conspiracy!

Or maybe that's the kind of thing we laugh about as naively optimistic ten years from now.

Good Lyrics

1. The rain has a such a lovely sound
to those who're six feet underground

2. I (uh!) must go on stan (stan) ding (dung!)
You can't (can't) break that (that) which isn't (isn't) yours (yours)

3. There were floods
There was violence

4. I'm on my way to heaven
I am on my way to heaven.

5. Gonna see the river man
Gonna tell him all I can

6. I'll do my scientific best to command your ship.

7. You say you know what he did
But you idiot kid, you don't have a clue

8. N/A

9. Do we believe in devils? No.
Winged men? The healing pow'r of love? No.
Enchantment? Social justice? No.

10. Drag me out of the sea and then teach me to breathe
Give me forced health till I wish death on myself.
Ah ha ha!

11. Everyone
Everyone around here
Everyone is so near

12. Then came that beautiful day
When our hearts collided in great sparks

13. N/A

14. We can all be free
Maybe not with words
Maybe not with a look
But with your mind

******

1. I was following the pack
all swallowed in their coats
with scarves of red tied ’round their throats

2. Dressed to the nines, we head to mass

3. Super, over here
Tell them, kill my friends

4. No one on the corner had a quarter for the telephone
Everybody bitching, “There’s nothing on the radio”

5. The world may seem cruel.
The worldly may hate us.
In time we will show the world why the world made us.

6. Rebels of the frontier,
I can make it make sense.

7. Look him in the face and tell him that you're leaving

8. I started nothing. I wish I didn't.

9. tie: I lift weights, but I don't sweat
I go for a swim, but I don't get wet!

I want to hurt you!
Well you can't 'cause I'm already dead

10. Let's go shopping!

11. I've got a feeling that I can't explain
We have to leave this place, we won't go back again

12. I will surprise you sometime
I'll come around

13. We're moderate, we modernize

14. Life, life is all right on the Rhine
No, but I know, but I know
I would have nowhere to go
No, but there's nowhere to go, to go

Diamond in the Rough

I get some pretty hilarious junk mail. I've had the same email address for all of my emailing career, so I am probably on just about every list you can imagine. Strangely, I've only ever been hit once by the "I'm a deposed Nigerian prince, please help me get my money out of the country" scheme, and I'm disappointed by that. There's so much room for creativity in those emails and if you set aside the fact that it's obviously bullshit, you can get some good reading in there. Admittedly, you then kind of chuckle and delete them anyways, but it's good for a laugh.

Lately, I've been getting a whole series of emails from porno websites (surprise surprise!) with hilarious and irreverent subject lines. I get the feeling that their random subject generator (which I'm sure they have) has been malfunctioning which has been adding on unintentionally funny post scripts to the subject lines. For example, "This guy is doing a cow. Therein" or "Naked Angles smile for the camera. Compost". Whatever that means (Those are both real, by the way). But today's tops them all! Enjoy!

Busty women rule the world! dismay‏
