Get the Christmas Spirit Dammit!!!

The original members of 1980s metal band Motley Crue, which made hard living and wild sexcapades a centerpiece of their music and their lives, on Monday announced a world reunion tour. I just hope Vince Neil and Tommy Lee can get along this time. In 1989, Sixx nearly died from a heroin overdose. Mars is recovering from hip replacement surgery to treat a degenerative illness. I lost my concert virginity to Motley Crue. What a show that was.
Nine out of 10 Chinese calling into a suicide-prevention hotline in the capital Beijing are getting the busy tone, a newspaper said on Monday, adding that nationwide four people were killing themselves every minute. Their only Chinese... Sheeeeesh!!!
For customers who either love to plan ahead or hate monthly bills, a small Massachusetts telecommunications firm has launched a $999 offer of unlimited Internet-based telephone service for life. Average monthly internet rate, $21. That comes to $252 per year. At that rate, you'd spend $999 on only 3.96 years of internet service. This looks like a good deal until the company gets shut down, sued, or goes bankrupt.
South Korea has shelved a plan to replace the English word for condom with a Korean word after a string of complaints from people with identical or similar sounding names. The Korean Anti-AIDS Federation said it would drop the use of a suggested new word for condom, "ae-pil," which was derived from the Chinese characters for love and necessity.
Colombian drug lords have developed a genetically modified "cocaine tree" that contains higher drug levels and is resistant to herbicides. Did you hear about the guy that figured out a way to turn marijuana into 4' X 8' sheets of plywood? He actually built a small house out of his product. One day the fire department alarm went off telling them to go to the prototype house. Starring at the fire they realized that someone was still in the house. As a fireman made his way into the house to rescue the would be victim, he yelled "your house is on fire". The inventor replied in a peaceful manner with a smile on his face "I know dude, far out".
At first glance, the Massa Marittima mural looks fairly similar to dozens of other medieval frescoes dotted across Tuscany. But look closely at the spidery tree that dominates the center of the painting and you notice something peculiar. Its branches are covered in penises.
Neolithic people in China may have been the first in the world to make wine, according to scientists who have found the earliest evidence of winemaking from pottery shards dating from 7,000 BC in northern China.
The Pennsylvania attorney general's office Monday sued an online university for allegedly selling bogus academic degrees — including an MBA awarded to a cat. That's one smart pussy!!!
An online casino offered $65,000 Monday for a metal walking cane that an Indiana woman put up for sale in hopes her son would believe his grandfather's ghost would leave their house with it. It's bad luck to believe in superstition.
Rows of cervical caps huddle like a little village of igloos. A wide array of condoms are near douches. The items are part of The History of Contraception Museum, which has become the latest addition to the Dittrick Medical History Center at Case Western Reserve University. And who said museums couldn't be fun?
OUTRAGE OVER MADAME TUSSAUND'S CELEBRITY NATIVITY SCENE
Four people have been able to control a computer using their thoughts and an electrode-studded "thinking cap", U.S. researchers say. Look ma no hands.
A teacher faces a fine of up to $1,000 and 90 days in jail because she propped open her classroom door with a rubber doorstop. State Fire Marshal Sterling Lewis Jr. said the corridor wall that contains the door is a smoke partition and the door must be able to close if there is a fire to hinder the spread of smoke. He said not all doors in the building fall under that designation, so some can be propped open legally and some can't. Maybe they should fix her damn air conditioner.
A teenage grandson of former President Jimmy Carter has been charged with burglary and possession of marijuana after police said he broke into a house of a former friend and took a video game console.
An Orange County sheriff's deputy was fired after surveillance video showed him urinating in a public elevator.
