Iraq Orders Inquiry Into Hussein Execution



Well. I'm not at all surprised at either the claims made about this, nor the fact that the execution is turning into the single most divisive act in all of "post-war" Iraq.



Way to cement a civil war. You get a golf clap, fuckheads.


Oh, and I don't believe for a second that the "American officials" actually tried to stop the hanging. Complete bullshit. Whatever.

The Everything Test

There are many different types of tests on the internet today. Personality tests, purity tests, stereotype tests, political tests. But now, there is one test to rule them all.

Traditionally, online tests would ask certain questions about your musical tastes or clothing for a stereotype, your experiences for a purity test, or deep questions for a personality test.We're turning that upside down - all the questions affect all the results, and we've got some innovative results too! Enjoy :-)

Personality You are more logical than emotional, more concerned about others than concerned about self, more religious than atheist, more dependent than loner, more lazy than workaholic, more rebel than traditional, more artistic mind than engineering mind, more idealist than cynical, more leader than follower, and more introverted than extroverted. As for specific personality traits, you are adventurous (80%), artistic (76%), romantic (71%), intellectual (60%).

Stereotypes College Student 88% Hippie 87% Young Professional 82%

Life Experience Sex 47% Substances 24% Travel 41%

Politics Your political views would best be described as Socialist, whom you agree with around 83% of the time.

Socioeconomic Your attitude toward life best associates you with Working Class. You make more than 0% of those who have taken this test, and 79% less than the U.S. average.

If your life was a movie, it would be rated PG-13. By the way, your hottness rank is 50%, hotter than 71% of other test takers.

So the last couple days I've been plowing my way through Stranger in a Strange Land by Robert Heinlein. I'm somehow a little shocked that it took me thirty years to read this book. I can't get enough of it, and am seriously looking forward to the ending. Unfortunately, it is taking me longer than anticipated because I too often use books as a just-before-bed panacea, and have been falling asleep over it- not due to the book, but due rather to the potency of my sleeping medicine. This should be remedied; I should start reading books in the middle of the day.

Today I ran across a section that cracked me up. Those of you familiar with the book will know what I'm talking about.

He flipped his fingers and all were gone but Patricia's gift.
"Well, we'll take that one; Pat would notice. But, Jill, right now I need to go to the zoo."

"All right."

"I want to spit back at a camel and ask him what he's sour about. Maybe camels are the 'Old Ones' on this planet... and that's what's wrong with the place."

Anyway, I thought it was funny....
