Apparently the House of Representatives has nothing better to do than rename french fries and french toast to freedom fries and freedom toast.

There's a very interesting article in the London Guardian newspaper detailing the capture of Khalid Sheikh Mohammed. It seems that someone in al-Qaida sold him out for the $25 million reward. You can read about it here.

It seems to me that the reason the rest of the world doesn't want to oust Sadaam is all about the money. The French sold him illegal nuclear reactor parts, and they don't want to admit it, so they pretend that the war is not necessary and inspections are working fine. The Germans set up an illegal oil pipeline for him, so they pretend everything is fine... no problems here. The Russians are owed billions from past ventures, so they don't want to upset the apple cart and risk not getting their money. The Chinese sold him missile technology that was illegal for Iraq to have, so they don't want to get caught with their hand in the cookie jar.

There's an interesting policy happening in the world... they claim that the U.S. is taking a unilateral approach to Iraq. Hmmm, seems to me that there are quite a few countries supporting us in this unilateral approach... last I counted, it was something like 50. Then when it comes to North Korea, the world wants the United States to handle it by themselves. Why is that? Hmmm, I think it's because Europe is predominantly full of blowhards who will do and say anything to stay in power. What's that? Today the wind is blowing in favor of anti-war protests? I'm anti-war! Give peace a chance! What just happened? Now they want to oust Sadaam? Hey, I've wanted to oust him for 10 years! Oh, the anti-war people are back. The inspections are working! The inspections are working! Hmm, North Korea is making enriched Uranium? Bah, let the Americans handle it. What? The U.S. wants other countries to get involved in the situation? No way, they need to take care of it.

Whatever is convenient for them at the time is what they believe in. Most of the world leaders seem to have no backbone of their own. They have no right to bitch and complain about how we bring freedom, justice, and security to the world while at the same time enjoying the fruit of our efforts.

I've added a new attempt at humor based on government signs. They're supposed to be very serious, like what to do in the event of a chemical attack or something like that, but frankly, they look ridiculous, so I've added some new comments of my own. You can check out the page here.

I just got back from the Auto show, and unfortunately the G35 coupe is too uncomfortable for me. The bolsters on the seat are too tall for me. The sedan doesn't have that problem though, and the good news is that they just came out with a 6-speed in the sedan. It looks like they era of coupes for me may be coming to an end.

The world is entirely too serious a place currently. We're getting ready to take out Sadaam, and the North Korean leadership is trying their hardest to provoke us into attacking them so that they can then turn around and say to the world "Hey, look at the Americans, they're trying to conquer the world." The problem is that we're not falling for it, and I don't know how much more aggressive the North Koreans are going to get. It seems clear to me that their president is a complete lunatic. He doesn't care about the people living in his country, he only cares about his power. He's willing to literally starve his country to death to feed his ego. It's people like that that are the true problem in the world. Clinton made the huge mistake of basically paying Kim Jong-Il off in 1994, and that only made him more dangerous. He thinks that he can now get away with anything, because Clinton didn't have the backbone to stand up to him back then. I think that Kim Jong-Il is the type of person that would initiate a war with no regard to calamity that would follow.

All work and no play makes me something something. Go crazy? Don't mind if I do.

Based on suggestions, I am now the proud owner of a brand new pair of Russian brides named Svetlana Marie and Borschty Sue.

I read a quote about the Indians today that I thought was great... "This roster is so ugly, you could dip it in batter and make gorilla cookies."

I went to the Cavs game today. I had the best tickets I've ever had, and probably the best tickets I ever will have. I could've reached out and punched the ref in the back if I had wanted to. The first half was pretty good... they were down by 4 to Orlando at the end of the first half. Then at the end of the third quarter, they were down by 31.

Hey, you can't win 'em all.
