more news articles and work boredom

Despite the fact that yesterday's successful post seems to indicate I can get away with posting by mail as long as I skip HTML, I still want to post links. I mean, it could work...

"If God's goal is for you to get a van..." - The judge's reaction to the case is the part that cracks me up. The woman sounds like a less angry version of the lady I had who couldn't follow my explanation of her bill because God was talking to her at the same time.

And in less entertaining, and not at all surprising, news, abstinence pledges don't seem to make much difference to STD rates. It mentions people who pledge abstinence get married younger - there's a shock. I also plan to be shocked when Christians who support abstinence-pledge movements seize on the minuscule statistical differences as proof the pledges work.

I have claimed three days off, including my birthday, so that gives me five days total, which I plan to use on something really wild like sleeping, and maybe cleaning out the refrigerator, and trying to get back into a state of mind where I don't want to punch co-workers for leaning on my desk.

Um... whuh? I'm not that creative! I like Pocky! Give me Pocky! Though those look like they might be tasty too.

"Have you ever tried turning off the TV... sitting down with your kids... and hitting them?" Now if only I'd had that quote for use on the post about game violence...

Why did I not try the Hamlet text adventure earlier? "Miles and miles of crinkly Danish countryside stretch out below me." Then I jumped out Ophelia's window and died. I'll try again later.
