Its Strong!

The Gift That Keeps on Giving...

Oh the memories...

On "Libby".

In case any of you missed it, President Bush commuted the sentence on I. Lewis "Scooter" Libby, saying, "I have concluded that the prison sentence given to Mr. Libby is excessive. Therefore, I am commuting the portion of Mr. Libby’s sentence that required him to spend thirty months in prison."

So, a "conviction of lying and obstructing justice in a probe into the leak of a CIA operative’s identity" results in a $250,000 fine and two years probation while the president communtes the 30 months in prison.

Also from Bush, "Others point out that a jury of citizens weighed all the evidence and listened to all the testimony and found Mr. Libby guilty of perjury and obstructing justice. They argue, correctly, that our entire system of justice relies on people telling the truth. And if a person does not tell the truth, particularly if he serves in government and holds the public trust, he must be held accountable."

Hence Bush commuting the sentence.

Happy 4th of July.

Also, if you don't know who I. Lewis "Scooter" Libby is here is a handy picture:



I. Lewis "Scooter" Libby is the one on the right who looks like a fucking dipshit who may or may not be contemplatively sucking on no less than 3 Lemon Heads.

Proclaimation

So.. I've been thinking... and.. we need a new "God-substitute" word. Jeebus is great and all, but a bit too flippant. Not at all solemn.

I'm thinking Zod. Honest to Zod. Zod Dammnit. Meet your maker and Kneel Before Zod.

that kinda thing.

Edge Magazine Officially Voted Worst Magazine Readership of All Time By Kyle Brown

Summary:

The readers of Edge Magazine were surveyed to find the 100 greatest games of all time, and the best these scrubs could come up with was Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time. I can almost let that slide, almost. Though it is obviously known as fact that Link to the Past is the best game from that series, by a landslide. But to prove that these people need to be put into an asylum until they can show an inkling of reasoning, I present you the rest of the top 10:

  • 2. Resident Evil 4
  • 3. Super Mario 64
  • 4. Half Life 2
  • 5. Super Mario World
  • 6. Zelda: A Link to the Past
  • 7. Halo: Combat Evolved
  • 8. Final Fantasy XII
  • 9. Tetris
  • 10. Super Metroid

Kwik-E-Mart

7-11's all over the US are being rebranded as Kwik-E-Marts to promote SIMPSONS THE MOIVE (it comes out on July 21....and it makes me soo hot). As a part of the rebranding, they will be selling Squishees. On word on whether Apu's experimental Chutney Squishee will be one of the flavors.

Croat Chicks are Hot

This picture is from a New York Times article on a Nazi Rock concert in Zagrab, Croatia over the weekend. I guess the the crowd gave nazi salutes and the stage was decorated with nazi symbols. Oh, it was shown on the state run television station in primetime. Also, the Minster of Education saw nothing wrong with people in there teens and 20s geting their fascist one.

But what really is important is how hot the chicks are (or at least the one that the nytimes chose to put online.
