.....AND HERE WE ARE AGAIN....

Free Hit Counters
Ugg Boot

Today is International Stuttering Awareness Day. How C C C Cool is thhhhhhhhat.

School District Bans Halloween Festivities. I love living in a free country. Don't you? (in wimpy old lady voice) "Halloween is satanic and I don't like it. And because I don't like it, everyone should be banned from celebrating it". Halloween is fun. It can be satanic but anything can be satanic. It's all in how you, as an individual, make it. I don't think the children that Trick or Treat are satanists. They just want to dress up, look cute, and get candy.

Hoping to boost morale among his fellow inmates, a Norwegian prisoner secretly hired an exotic dancer to spice up the prison's monthly culture night. The woman got all her clothes off, to the cheers of the male inmates, before guards could react on Wednesday night at the Hof minimum security prison in southern Norway. If I ever get put into jail, send me to Norway.

Man Wears 'Cocaine' T-Shirt in Court. Probably not the smartest choice of clothing but there is the whole freedom of speech thing.

Italian kids flooded school to avoid exam. That must have been on heck of an exam.

Judge Voids Will That Promised Curse. I don't get the whole point in making a will. Last will and testament is what you want to happen to your possessions after you pass on. It seems like every case involving someone that left a will ended in voiding the will and the family sueing each other. That's why I'm gonna spend every cent I have in life. When I get sick, I'm gonna sell everything I own and hire strippers for everyone I know. Not really.

A 20-year-old man has pleaded guilty to using the Madison County Jail's checking account number to help him meet women online. Right on. hahahahahahahaha

A Chinese woman living in Sydney has taken the unusual step of advertising for a husband on a billboard outside a cinema in Sydney's eastern suburbs. I wonder how many creeps responded to that. Other than me of course.

Fake Gucci Bags Fund Terrorism? Man, I'm so glad mine is real. I like to wear it with my fur coat. They go good together.
