Weather!

Posted in News and Media on March 20th, 2006 by Fyodor

Ok, I don’t ask for much. I only want spring to mean just that: spring! I don’t want the biggest snow storm of season to hit the Midwest on the first day of Spring precisely at the time I want to go home to Louisville……

He is finally in Hell

Posted in News and Media, Politics on March 17th, 2006 by Fyodor

Milosevic’s death transported him to his final destination: Hell. But, he continues to haunt us from the dead. His body was laid for public viewing in the Museum of 25th Maj, right next to Tito’s grave. Ok, how disgusting and idiotic do you have to be to place the body of a mass murderer who caused 4 wars and flushed the country down the toilet next to Tito, a person who, albeit contraveresial, build up a beautiful and working country which held together in peace and harmony for over 40 years. Over 100 representatives and foreign heads of state came to Tito’s funeral in 1980, including President Carter’s mother, and Milosevic’s funeral will not be attended even by Serbian heads of state who despised him as much as the Bosnians did. So, to those nationalist idiots who put his coffin next to Tito’s grave: grow up! Nationalism needs to be eradicated….Ah, I feel better.

Our politicians, on both sides of the aisle, are truly useless. One issue both Republicans and Democrats agree on and stand up to BUsh on turns out not to be an issue at all! I am talking about the port deal uproar.

As most of you know (and those who have not followed this issue, you are much better off for it) the whole political uproar erupted when the Bush administration disclosed they sold some 6 ports to a Dubai company owned by the United Arab Emirates. Read the rest of this entry »

South Dakota needs to be expelled from the Union

Ok, here it is: believe it or not, South Dakota has banned all abortions and made it a felony for doctors to carry them out EVEN IN THE CASE OF RAPE OR INCEST. The only exception is when a life of a woman is threatened. This obviously contradicts the federal law, codified with the precedent Roe Vs. Wade and then reaffirmed in the 1996 Supreme Court decision Casey Vs. Planned Parenthood. So, why is the conservative right doing this? Well, of course they want to force the Supreme Court to deal with this issue and now that they have a favorable balance on the court, they expect them to oveturn the Roe Wade.

I got this in an email today so I thought I’d post it here. I found most of the urban legends very amusing, however this one caught my attention, and I am not really sure what to think of it. Now, this might be a hoax or just a way for big and small companies to make you buy their most expensive mulch but its worth reading, especially if you own a home.
Here it goes:

If you use mulch around your house be very careful about buying mulch this year. After the Hurricane in New Orleans many trees were blown over. These trees were then turned into mulch and the state is trying to get rid of
tons and tons of this mulch to any state or company who will come and haul it away. Read the rest of this entry »
