Better than any spy novel ~ the latest on Alexander Litvinenko’s death

It has also been claimed that the Russian businessman Dmitry Kovtun, who met the former spy on the day he was allegedly poisoned in London, is critically ill.

A Russian news agency claimed Mr Kovtun had fallen into a coma immediately after being questioned by Russian investigators and Scotland Yard detectives.

In another development, it was disclosed that all seven staff who were working at the Pine Bar of the Millennium Hotel - where Mr Litvinenko had a meeting on the day he fell ill - had tested positive for low levels of radiation.

Part comedy sketch, part catchy song, all worth listening to. It IS six minutes long though, so make sure you set the time aside.

Shaggy Dog Christmas Story

Harold Halterman, traveling salesman, goes into a restaurant for breakfast on Christmas Day. After looking over the menu he says, “I’ll just have the eggs benedict.”

His order comes a while later and the eggs are served on a big shiny hubcap.

He asks the waiter, “What’s with the hubcap?”

The waiter says, Continue Reading »

What was Pyrophage doing?

Binge Drinking. Pure and simple. I must have drank 20 gallons of water yesterday.

I think Jeff spent the last couple of days trying to shore up his opinion of the world as it pertains to religion. And I don’t think that it went all that well.

First up, if there’s anything to make you appreciate the holidays from a Christian perspective, it’s “A Charlie Brown Christmas”. I really do hope someone I knowed taped that (I don’t have access to TV. Long story.) But then you get a quick dose of reality two posts later.

I think it is absurd to say that Americans only care about one religious text. Just look at all of those followers of the Subgenious out there. And I could mention that other popular “S” religion, but I don’t want to get a cease and desist order just yet. And news of this clearly made Jeff a little sad. So he went to the British for help. They’re always so cheerful.

I love the fact that a healthy portion of Anglican Vicars don’t know the ten commandments. Isn’t one of the requirements to be a priest of a religion that you have to be fairly well versed in that religion? The best part about all of this is that it’s in a different country, so I can be objective. No, I take that back, I think it’s pretty damn funny when anyone that claims a certain moral stance is incapable of explaining their own soap box. Maybe that’s why The Daily Show and The Colbert Report are so popular.

But that didn’t allay Jeff’s depression. In fact, it even hung around another day. And he had to listen to a song that is incredibly exhuberent in its performance, but incredibly sad in its lyrical content. And “99 Luftballoons” didn’t have a snazzy flash animation to go with it.

Tune in tomorrow when Jeff’s depression is lifted and he talks about holiday shopping for that Ocelot in your life.
