I can not overstate how fucking elated I am that Eric Holder has resigned as Attorney General. I could rehash all of my past rants about lying to Congress under oath, refusal to investigate or cooperate with the investigation of Fast and Furious, or the IRS scandal, or the wiretapping of the Associated Press phones, or stoking racial tensions both in Florida and Missouri, or Operation Choke Point, or reducing States' power to deal with illegal immigrants, or federal persecution of legalized marijuana users... but suffice to day that late yesterday morning I breathed a heavy sigh of relief. I'm sure some other fucking dickbag will likely continue Holder's policies for some time, but for now I think I'll just sit here and breathe in that sweet, sweet smell of freedom. So Long Eric Holder, don't let the door hit you on the ass on the way out.
Groundskeeper Willie, a recurring character on The Simpsons, is the head groundskeeper at Springfield Elementary School. Willie is almost feral in nature and is immensely proud of his native Scotland. He is easily identifiable by his flaming red hair and beard, as well as his aggressive temperament and strong Scottish accent.
Okay this is probably an easy one, but exactly where in New York is Bambi? I'm sure finding that one will be a lot easier than finding this sock, since there are no house numbers to work from. Somewhere in San Francisco, I'd guess.
Not only does Katy Perry wear ridiculous outfits, she looks fucking sexy in them. California girls really are unforgettable with daisy dukes and bikinis on top. Here are 48 of Katy's sexiest photos from around the web. You're welcome.
Ernie, Hope this finds your way. Just want to bring up another point with regards to the "Latte Salute" (I know you're always up for good discussions). If holding a cup of coffee during a salute is disrespectful (which I agree it is), then is holding a dog in your arms during a salute also disrespectful? I asked that because our last president (W Bush) did exactly that on at least 4 occasions (where he was photographed). I bring this up not to defend Obama but rather point out the hypocrisy that exists within our politics on both sides. thanks and keep up the great site, blah, blah, blah. Grayson

Eh, you're partially correct. The item you're holding (dog vs coffee) isn't in question, it's which hand is it in. A salute is always given with the right hand, so if you're carrying anything it's always carried in your left hand. When rendering a proper salute, the hand and wrist are perfectly straight -- hence the not carrying anything -- the elbow inclined slightly forward, and the upper arm should be horizontal. You'll know the angle of your hand is correct when neither the back of the hand nor the palm is clearly visible from the front. GWB has previously demonstrated that he knows how to properly salute while carrying something; that is to say, carry it in your left hand, keeping your right hand free. In the follow up photo taken right after the one you mentioned, you can see Barney pulling away against his leash. The conclusion I draw from that is the dog made some sort of fuss while being carried down the stairs and GWB instinctively grabbed him with both arms. He should have stopped saluting when he did so, but didn't and that's a definite faux pas. But to my knowledge, a cup of coffee has never struggled to break away from its owner and created a hazard by running across an active tarmac.
About fucking time: Philadephia mom Shaneen Allen has been admitted into pre-trial intervention program after the New Jersey Attorney General scrambles to save face. IT SHOULDN'T HAVE TAKEN THIS LONG.
