Vegetable Oil?

You can not cook my car!

Far-fetched, perhaps. But today's sky-high oil prices have sparked renewed interest in a cornucopia of exotic vehicle fuel substitutes.

Consumers in energy-hungry China are turning to molasses and cassava root to fuel their cars. Many French are trying to beat the high cost of diesel by illegally pouring sunflower oil into their tanks. And the Germans are clearing grocery store shelves of rapeseed, or canola oil, to fill up on the cheap. More...

Get used to "Governor O'Malley"!

Show Ehrlich the fucking door

"While other states and nations are moving forward, with leaders who bring people together, I submit to you sadly that Maryland is adrift," O'Malley said. "I have reached the conclusion that we cannot allow our state to coast or slip backward, because a stronger Maryland can do better."

And let it hit him on the ass on the way out!

NJ Sues Oil Firms

NEW YORK (Reuters) - New Jersey's Acting Gov. Richard Codey on Monday said the state had sued Motiva Shell, Amerada Hess (AHC.N: Quote, Profile, Research) and Sunoco (SUN.N: Quote, Profile, Research) for overpricing gasoline after Hurricane Katrina shut much of the Gulf of Mexico's oil production and damaged refineries.

New Jersey motorists paid an average of $2.87 a gallon on Monday, according to the American Automobile Association.

State law bars gasoline stations from raising prices more than once every 24 hours, but Codey said multiple price changes had occurred within such a period. More...

Finally something is being done about the price gouging.

New Orleans the New Venice?

I had this idea yesterday, that since New Orleans is doomed to flooding, and rebuilding to the exact way it was will just be consistantly costly, why not make it a water city like Venice, Italy? It could be a huge tourist attraction, and let's face it, how much of a tourist attraction is the city right now? With dead bodies and contaminated water?

Turn New Orleans into Venice.

Flipper the firing dolphin, is loose!

Hurricane Katrina has let loose Flipper, the firing dolphin!

Experts who have studied the US navy's cetacean training exercises claim the 36 mammals could be carrying 'toxic dart' guns. Divers and surfers risk attack, they claim, from a species considered to be among the planet's smartest. The US navy admits it has been training dolphins for military purposes, but has refused to confirm that any are missing.

That's right, attack dolphins.

Red Hot Chili Peppers' new album delayed til 2006

I cannot fucking wait for their new album to come out.

"I wish to fuck that we were putting it out sooner," said Kiedis. "I'm so excited about it and I'm so ready for it to be part of the public consciousness. It's a lot different to 'By The Way'. There are some profoundly funky songs and then there are songs that are new for us and don't sound like anything."

It's currently titled, "This Year's Diary".

The Chinaman Peed on my Rug!

Chinaman cannot blog legally anymore.

The Chinese government is taking action against bloggers and other sources of online news.

The new censorship means any organisation or individual must register with the authorities before providing news or operating an email distribution list. Portal sites are asked to give priority to government-approved copy rather than their own comment pieces, while the regulations also warn government bodies not to provide content to news websites without government permission.

So to all you Chinaman bloggers out there... keep blogging! Don't let your Gov't tell you what to do! Keep it up! (Yes there isn't a chance of the Chinaman reading this, because I am not banned in China...I am not banned in China...I am not banned in China...I am not banned in China...You don't win friends with salad.

Also, I am aware that Chinaman is not the preferred nomenclatur, Walter.

A dead bunny

Yeah, there's a dead bunny laying right in front of my driveway. Now there's no blood in the middle of the road, so how the hell is someone going to be driving on the CURB unless they were trying to kill the bunny?

I swear, I live too close to too many rednecks. There's a million and a half pickup trucks on my street. Can we just bar them from living outside of their naturual rural habitat? And limit them to one sheep per person. There's only so many sheep!

Who knows what the bunny had in store for us, but we'd never know! Some redneck killed it with a truck!

...

Unless it was those damn yuppies with their $1500 suits and $600 cell phones. Damn them and their bunny killing appetites.

Exploiting Children!

Anybody else think this is sick? C'mon, selling ad space on your baby? What the fuck is wrong with these motherfuckers?

BE THERE OR BE STUPID

How was the weekend?

Well, I drowned my cell phone in a pool, and was right next to a urinating cow. Other than that it was pretty uneventful.

So yeah, on Saturday Lily had a bright idea to throw people in a pool and wanted to throw me in. She did tell me to take out my wallet, keys, and phone, but I stupidly, took out only the first two. I still don't have a clue how I forgot about my phone, but I fully submerged it into the pool.

And yesterday from 3:30 to 10:30 I was at the Maryland State Fair. I petted the cow!!111 Then it peed.

Fortunately my cell phone started to work again this morning (I almost got another one yesterday, but held out, and now I am glad I did), and I think I have recovered from standing next to a waterfall of urine, so everything is hunky-dory.

New Orleans Mayor has some choice words

New Orleans Mayor Ray Nagin has a message to the President. GET THIS GUY IN A QUENTIN TARANTINO FILM!!!!!SOMEMOREEXCLAMATIONMARKS!!!!!

Way to bring politics into this, Bushie

Has anybody noticed that Bush has sent more aid to Mississippi than to Louisana? Could it possibly have anything to do with the fact that Mississippi is a red state and New Orleans is heavily democratic.

I bet if Texas had a national diaster, Bush would send over everything including the kitchen sink, but because New Orleans is mostly black, Bush is like, "Fuck 'em, let 'em eat cake."

Fuck Bush up the ass. Yes, get all the gay men of the world together to sodomize the President!!!

Some People in New Orleans Deserve to Die

And those people are the fucks who got on the bus from the Superdome and left their pet stranded on the side of the road and those people who left their pets stranded on their rooftop. If you're gonna be that sick and inhumane, you DO NOT DESERVE TO BE RESCUED. End of story. Get the fuck in the ocean, now.

So you're in a homeless shelter aka the Superdome, and you're about to leave to go to a much better shelter, when you are told your pet cannot come with. What do you do? Do you throw your pet away like yesterday's trash or do you forcefully take your dog or cat on the bus with you and raise hell? If you're a good person, you chose the second choice.

How can people be so cruel? And it's not just about that either. It's about public health. You don't want people roaming the streets and living in a shithole, getting rabbies, so you leave that fate to your pets? What the fuck is your issue? Will the animal slow down the rescue mission? If that's the case, then what about old people? Sir! I know you have a bad back and no teeth, but you'll slow us down! You'll kill us all! GET THE FUCK OFF MY BUS! Yeah, screw animals and old people. And while we're at it, screw babies too. No, not like that, Jacko.

I hope those owners who stranded their animals die of dysentery or at the very least, never own an animal again. They aren't responsible enough. Sick fucks.

And don't give me this crap about how these people had no choice, that conditions were terrible. Being a dog owner myself, I couldn't live knowing that I abandoned a loved one and left them for dead. If the choice is to stay in crap and die a slow death or abandon my pet and live in shame for the rest of my life, I'd rather stay and die. Some of you think I'd probably change my mind if I were actually in that situation, but I doubt that, my love wouldn't disappear that easily. I just couldn't do that to a loved one.

To all those sad, inbred, degenerate folk who abandoned their pets, I hope you live in with shame and guilt for the rest of your lives.
