Sorry for the hiatus folks! We were busy developing our own blog so we didn’t have time to check out other peoples blogs… until now. So let’s get things started.
There’s:
• One tank of ethanol contains enough grain to feed one African for a year
• If Juno Was 10 Times Shorter and 100 Times More Honest (I’m sorry I’m 1 year late with this)
Look, everybody! Our betters are Harvard Business School are telling us how the world should work again:
There’s a tectonic shift rocking the social, political, and economic landscape. The last two points above are what express it most concisely. I hate labels, but I’m going to employ a flawed, imperfect one: Generation “M.”
What do the “M”s in Generation M stand for? The first is for a movement. It’s a little bit about age — but mostly about a growing number of people who are acting very differently. They are doing meaningful stuff that matters the most. Those are the second, third, and fourth “M”s.
I have some really, really, really sad news everybody. Mia Farrow is putting herself in harms way to alleviate the poverty of the Sudanese people. How brave, how noble a lady she is to stop eating food for a couple of weeks in the comfort of her own food, just to raise awareness for third world peoples! Wrong rights explains:
Well, if the hundreds of thousands displaced or dead in Darfur weren’t bad enough already, now the violence is impacting the well-being of our nation’s precious celebrities. Actress Mia Farrow recently announced that next week she will begin a hunger strike in solidarity with the (very hungry) people of Darfur…
And am I the only one who expects to see the “Darfur Diet” popping up in next month’s Cosmopolitan magazine as a great way to get in shape for bikini season and attract the attention of that cute “activist” boy who hangs out at your local fair trade coffee shop?
I know Obama isn’t going to fix the economy overnight, I know he won’t be able to provide healthcare to all Americans by February ‘09. I know Obama isn’t a Messiah who four years from now will have turned this country into a fabled utopia. But I also know Obama will make moral decisions. I know Obama will try to unite where others try to divide. I know Obama will help to make America the beacon of hope it once was to others. I know that at 27 years of age, I witnessed one of the most important and hopefully glorious chapters in American history.
1. The modern conservative movement began with the crushing defeat of Arizona Sen. Barry Goldwater in the 1964 presidential race. The modern conservative movement ends with the crushing defeat of Arizona Sen. John McCain — who took Goldwater’s Senate seat upon his retirement — in the 2008 presidential race.
Keeping up on the intrigue and detail of everyday Joe 6 Pick Sarah Palin, it turns out not only is her family worth over a million dollars, but the bitch done cheated on her taxes too:
“Palin, it appears, did not pay taxes on the more than $60,000 of travel reimbursements that she and her family members reportedly billed the state during her 18 months as governor.”
It further appears that the Republican machine is doing everything in their power to stop the release of the Troopergate investigation:
Texas-based Liberty Legal Institute and Anchorage attorney Kevin Clarkson, representing the group of anti-investigation legislators, filed the emergency appeal.
Let’s jump right into this thing. As we know, we have a God-loving, ‘Tard-making Alaskan governor about to possibly become the next Vice President (plus she looks hot in a USA A-OK bikini). And like all good Christians, she hates books:
[Former Wasilla mayor] Stein says that as mayor, Palin continued to inject religious beliefs into her policy at times. “She asked the library how she could go about banning books,” he says, because some voters thought they had inappropriate language in them. “The librarian was aghast.” The librarian, Mary Ellen Baker, couldn’t be reached for comment, but news reports from the time show that Palin had threatened to fire her for not giving “full support” to the mayor.
And you know why Bush would never be impeached by that wonderful Democratic congress we elected? It turns out they knew about torture techniques being used the whole time:
