Enjoy,And, What About Crimes That Haven't Been Enacted Into Law, Yet? You Could Be A Retroactive Criminal And Not Even Know It!
John Muise believes that, despite all evidence to the contrary, crime statistics are actually going up, citing the fact that crimes unknown just four decades ago are now prevalent.
He makes a good point, but why stop at 40 years? Crimes that were prevalent 400 years ago are now practically nonexistent. When was the last time somebody was arrested for spitting on a public street between the hours of 6am and 6pm, or stealing one of the King's horses?

That's Why Nobody Calls Him The Black Shadow For Nothing
John McCain's presidential campaign is claiming that Barack Obama has "played the race card" by stating in speeches that McCain was becoming so desperate that he would soon try to convince voters to be scared of a black man as President.
"We would have preferred to play the race card ourselves by trying to convince voters to be scared of a black man as President," a McCain insider desperately explained, "but Obama beat us to it, so we had to settle for second best. Damn, he's good!"

Oh, will you motherfucking halfwits stop it already! You wanna know the reason the mainstream doesn't take the conspiracy community - yeah, we?re a community, get over it, schmucko - seriously?

Cuil A Shaker?
Cuil, the new search engine, was supposed to challenge Google for online supremacy. Instead, in its first week of public operation, it became something of an embarrassment. Although it claims to have indexed over 120 billion Web pages, 95 per cent of search queries receive a single response: the Girls with Eyepatches Home Page.
Representatives of Google smirked to themselves and took a bath in diamonds they bought with the additional revenue they received as the company's share prices soared yet again.

The Fog Of Sports
Experts have suggested that the smog above Beijing is likely to hamper the performance of athletes competing in this year's summer Olympics. Particulate matter, a mix of dust, soot and smoke from vehicle and industrial emissions, averages around 100 micrograms per cubic metres annually - twice the World Health Organization's safe limit.
However, other experts are more optimistic. For example, Dane Ostvald van der Sloopy is touted by many to break the world's record for the 100 metre hack, gasp and wheeze. And, then, there's...there's...okay, that's about it. Still, it's a potential Olympic record, and that's exciting, right? Right?

Which Would You Say Was More Eloquent?
WHAT ECONOMIC PUNDITS SAY: consumer confidence has been shaken by lack of liquidity in the housing market. Skyrocketing payments owing to variable mortgage rates have resulted in increased foreclosure rates. This has had the unfortunate effect of leading to soft sales and employment numbers for the second quarter.
WHAT REAL PEOPLE SAY: I'm skint.

This Headline Parodies A Headline From November 22, 1924
Parody Parody Movie. A sendup of movies, like Scary Movie and Not Another Teen Movie, that were parodies of other movies. Parody Parody Movie even contains references to classic parodies like Airplane! and Young Frankenstein. And, just when you think Hollywood can't sink any lower in cannibalizing itself, Paramount announces that there will be a sequel!
