Read all about it At great risk of sounding like a heartless scab, even more than when I call the inhabitants of Mississippi banjo playing rednecks, I'm going to make a commentary on the aid to Tsunami victims. I know this is just one article about one place in the Tsunammi stricken areas, and some good that all that aid provided must exist. But here it is; the unintended consequences of well-intentioned billions of dollars is not serving to educate these ladies, it is funding the incentives to marry them off as very young brides. When there is payment to destitute families for marriage of young girls, what else could possibly be the outcome?

A Cold Cheek to Conair The Conair Ion Shine hair dryer's flip switch is too easily turned off while you try to hold the dryer; it's right where you need to hold the dryer. Very annoying. Costs MWB team at LEAST 2-3 extra minutes each morning and probably endangers our coiffs.

If you're looking to do real research on something you want to buy, this isn't the place. Consumer Reports has the lock on that one... however, if you want a quick and dirty a few things the MWB team really likes or hates, you're home. Other efforts at this sort of thing are sites such as ePinions.com, where allegedly random consumers post their opinions of products they have purchased. I'm convinced ePinions is monitored, and actively seeded, by companies and retailers. When something negative is posted about a product, someone posts a drippy Danielle Steele novella response which is obviously utter BS: "After having been quite disappointed in my Verizon phone and unsympathetic customer service, I was desolate; how to find a wireless service who could meet my physical needs for high quality technology, but also bring me the sense of safety and self completely lacking thus far in the unfeeling wireless industry. Alas, I was taking a stroll one Saturday afternoon and I happened upon a Cingular store. Fate? I think not..." With claptrap like that, how can you possibly trust any of the posts on those sites. I've bought a few things based on positive reviews at ePinions, only to find that either my luck was very bad or the ePinion posts were fake bullshit. Since I'm the luckiest person in the world, I'm voting for the latter... Alas, here we are. What has the MWB team of Marla and Michela found to be the best or worst of something. We'll post these occasionally and you can see the complete list by selecting the category, MWB Picks. Tell your friends!

Big Kiss to Gateway for Profile series Small, powerful, it fits nicely on any small desk--as well as any laptop but more powerful. Until Gateway gave us this PC, you had to be an Apple Macintosh Grasseater to get something this small, cool, and powerful in a non-laptop computing machine. The monitor is built-in and high quality. Naysayers... "what if the monitor dies before the computer..." Trust me, you'll want a new PC long before the monitor dies. Besides, MWB is a blog for the party of Rich White Men (so sayeth that genius CHER) so when the monitor dies, just throw it away and buy another one, because you can. Final words: Michela has had a Gateway Profile for 2 years and its performance is still perfect, it's quiet enough to sleep next to it (which we do frequently when having to research liberals), it has tons of USB ports right there at your fingertips (no more getting a thong up the butt trying to plug in a USB stick or camera...!), it's just the best.

Read all about it "Tampla, Fla.--" When Forida is the location of the news story's subject, you can bet it's a grisly event. MWB could create a whole category of "Grisly Florida News" and fill it every single month. Is it the heat? The humidity? Or is it just that it's such a miserable place only the lunatics either go or stay there? But so many of these horrifying, shocking events occur there it might be worthy of a) determining its root causes and b) convincing people Florida should just be formally named the violent fruitloop penal colony it already seems to be.

Read all about it While this crime, killing one's husband, then trisecting him and putting him in three suitcases to be tossed into the Chesapeake Bay on the surface seems like a horrendous crime, the MWB team completely sympathizes. Note to self: the suitcases and body bags always wash ashore. You gotta convince him to take a trip where there are piranhas. oops... Did I write that out loud?

Read all about it When this boy genius gets out of jail, maybe he can submit an application to NASA; I hear they're looking for a good scientist who knows the difference between metrics and the Imperial system. A quick net search will bring him up to speed.

I've been noticing that liberal women are really uptight. Really uptight. For example, I drive a small sports car (metallic blue, convertible, my flaming red hair looks so hot on a top-down day... but I digress) and I must go over speedbumps very slowly and carefully. About 90% of the women in my building get their flesh colored pantyhose knotted far up their buttcracks while they wait an extra 1 minute 30 seconds to exit the parking garage. Another... chatting it up with the hot young checker at the grocery store, the thick-thighed, black hair-lipped beetches just wind it up, and I say, go get laid sister! Since they are liberals and they can't be bothered to let go in this patriarchal hell we call Southern California, I decided to let you see for yourselves what the differences are between US, and THEM... here are a few... CONSERVATIVE [or libertarian;)] ASSES:

LIBERAL ASSES:
          
Which one would you rather put your hands on?

Read all about it I remember this story from when it happened... But what can you say about a guy who decapitates his best friend while driving drunk... that's about the worst luck I've ever heard in my life, for both of them. See, how many times have we all stuck our heads out a car window, sick after a night of hard drinking. And jeeezus, none of us ever dreamed we'd get our heads chopped off by anyone but our parents. The best part, if you will, is that the driver was so blasted he just drove home, parked, passed out inside, and left the headless body in the car--in the driveway, no less--to be found the next day by some folks on a nice morning stroll. His blood alcohol was only 2 times the limit? That's all it took for this guy to chop his friend's head off without knowing it? It woulda' taken about 7x that amount for Marla and me... Cheers!

http://news.yahoo.com/s/ap/nkorea_nuclear Left to their own communist devices, communist societies have very little gross domestic product, high inflation, negative growth, and just implode. China has been a stunning counter argument but they have succeded in three simple ways: by sheer number of expendible worker bees, adoption of some western ecomic practices, and stealing anything they need with protections, such as "Most Favored Nation" status granted by the US. Just leave North Korea alone; their people are starving, their leader is insane, and we could obliterate them with one push of a very red button.
