From the fresh archives of the roving photojournalist staff at MWB, we have a picture of a car. Not just any car. A car that has had its rear end taken out (no snappy sex jokes, Michela). Now why would anyone go and pay for a crapload of expensive body work when you can repair it yourself with $2 worth of bolts from Home Depot? Not only does it look pretty good, it's a very secure solution. Next time the body shop quotes me $2,000 for a bumper because some bolts broke off, I'm gonna show them THIS:

Read all about it The FoxNews headlines are "Riots Rock Paris"; and on CNN, "Massive Protest in France" with a subheading describing the tear gas and water cannons required to keep the crowds in line. Contrast this with the 500,000 people who led a peaceful demonstration against illegal immigration reform in Los Angeles. I am totally opposed to illegal immigration; I couldn't diagree with these demonstrators more. And frankly, I was pissed off because I was caught in the snarl of traffic created by the demonstrators as they waived at cars on the 101. Fortunately, I had a very pleasant riding companion (mon cher David). HOWEVER, it was peaceful. 500,000 people in Los Angeles lined a very busy freeway, and very busy streets, rallying against a very controversial and divisive issue, as is their right to do so. This is an issue that strikes people at their cores; most are probably here due to illegal immigration (if not this generation, the last one). And still, it was peaceful. Those 500,000 demonstrators were more behaved than 5,000 Lakers fans after a World Championship (win or lose). MWB hats (and Michela has many) are off!

Read all about it Read all about it Thease are two very depressing stories which show what some "people" (by scientific, physical classification only) are capabale of. Fortunately the endings are happy... In story #1, two banjo playing inbred parents from god knows what part of the Appalachians order their three year old daughter to beat up a five year old boy they are babysitting. You read that right; they order a 3 year-old girl to beat a 5 year-old boy (as he pleads for mercy, mind you). Then, the sperm donor of the girl shoves the poor little boy and asks him why he didn't defend himself. WTF?! But the best part? They videotaped the whole ordeal, the boy's mother found the video, and both of these inbreds will be properly prosecuted. In story #2, a man jumps off a bridge into frigid waters with his baby to kill himself and the child, presumably to get back at the child's mother for some unknown reason. But hoorah, the "man" (again, by scientific physcial classification only; no real man would ever do this) dies and the baby lives. If there's a hell, this guy is dangling from the end of a red-hot pitchfork right now, by my estimate.

Read all about it Thanks again Frenchie...who knew there were people out there experimenting with mail ripping. But thank god they are, otherwise, we'd have no idea how easy it is to paste one inch squares back together. We didn't figure that out in kindergarten you know.

Read all about it Since the frogs can't make anything worth a damn on their own, they have to steal the ideas and technology from American innovators. I hope Apple gives Frawnce the biggest Shaquile O'Neil middle finger they can find. Fuck the frogs; they can listen to their cassette players if they don't like it! I have a few in a drawer I could send their way... To justify the proposterous idea that allowing competitors to have access to a technology paid for, developed, and refined by an absolutely fabulous company for free, the "Culture Minister" and some other communist dumbass come up with this laughable statement: "When this [this being the theft of Apple's technology] happens, iTunes will have the French government to thank for making it possible to draw so many Internet users toward legal platforms." Yah, we'll have the French to thank for eliminating the concept of patents, research and development, and competitive market forces. What that will leave us with is cassette players, dixie cups, and really bad French cars. And we WILL have the French to "thank."

Read all about it Brettsky has illuminated MWB to the fact that he is now liberated in my family's home country, he's now practically an Irish paisan...Not only can Brettsky and his people wander the streets of Dublin with chainmail t-shirts, but he can also now carry a sword. Further, he can defend himself against Muslim attackers, and repair the exterior of his synagogue. With such oppression of his people by my people hanging heavily over his head since 1181, I don't know how he and I ever became such good friends.

Read all about it I don't care what anyone says; customer service proffered via India sucks. It sucks eggs. So with Dell creating 10,000 jobs in India primarily for customer service tasks, buy a Gateway. Dell's customer service sucks already; but when you have to talk to Seshi Patel to get him to understand your blue screen of death, well, good freekin' luck.

And that's no small statement, in 5.2 seasons, there've been some bad ones. But last night, argh, the show's second for the season, was so terrible I almost left early. I think it didn't even run 50 whole minutes, but it seemed like 80. This season is so full of heavy handed foreshadowing, it makes Danielle Steele's "...she was so happy seeing burning candles on the slighly brown Christmas tree...then the house burnded down and her entire family was cooked alive!" seem like a hidden plot twist. Right after Christopher talks to the old FBI guys about terrorism, he runs into "Ahkmed" at the bar? Gimme a break. And those dream sequences...OMG, excruciating! And I read a review calling this season brilliant! Who are these people!

Read all about it Thanks again Frenchie; we didn't know we could use the Ambien excuse for our late night eating, and maybe all the other six deadly sins. But with this one in our back pocket, what happens in Vegas can happen anywhere. The only prudent thing to do is to make sure your parter in seven sins is equally obliterated. Then, the sins die with the Ambien hangover. Vegas babaaaay!

My two favorite people in the whole world have just had a baby girl, Chloe. I love you guys!
