From an article:

Gov. Arnold Schwarzenegger signed legislation on Friday to outlaw the sale to teenagers of electronic games featuring reckless mayhem and explicit sexuality.

An interesting move for someone who, were it not for the easy access for teenagers to violent media, would not have the fame, wealth, and political position he now enjoys.

When I was 11 I remember going to the theater and buying a ticket to Commando. Terrible movie, but I liked it at the time. When he embedded the circular sawblade into some nameless guard’s head, I wonder if I thought back then, “Hey. This guy would make a great state governor.”

Capcom has released a game for the Nintendo DS called, Phoenix Wright: Ace Attorney. From Evil Avatar:

Mix adventure gaming, crime scence investigation and court room drama with the DS interface and you have a winner!
Also if you act now, through Capcom’s US website, you can get a free, “Objection!” stylus.

This guy plans on racking up a million frequent flyer miles in two months. He takes ten 15 minute flights every day and pays $3500 per month for all-you-can-fly tickets from Air Canada. And they don’t seem mad about it.

Most online quizzes suck, but this one has a good premise. You’re given a quote and you have to attribute to the right person who said it. The choices are Falwell, Robertson, or Bin Laden.

From the BBC article:

President George W. Bush told Palestinian ministers that God had told him to invade Afghanistan and Iraq – and create a Palestinian State.

Abu Mazen, Palestinian Prime Minister, and Nabil Shaath, his Foreign Minister, describe their first meeting with President Bush in June 2003.

Nabil Shaath says: “President Bush said to all of us: ‘I’m driven with a mission from God. God would tell me, “George, go and fight those terrorists in Afghanistan.” And I did, and then God would tell me, “George, go and end the tyranny in Iraq …” And I did. And now, again, I feel God’s words coming to me, “Go get the Palestinians their state and get the Israelis their security, and get peace in the Middle East.” And by God I’m gonna do it.'”

Abu Mazen was at the same meeting and recounts how President Bush told him: “I have a moral and religious obligation. So I will get you a Palestinian state.”

Where have I heard that before? Let’s see… man kills people on the direct instruction of a supernatural entity… for one, David Berkowitz.

Someone on eBay is selling cut ponytails of human hair. That’s strange in itself, but wait. They’re being sold with “cut pictures” where the girl poses unhappily with her cut hair in hand. I guess that’s the hair fetishist’s money shot.

Some idiot tried to rob a bank with his mouth duct taped shut. He handed a note to the teller saying that he had a bomb in his mouth. The cops grabbed him and cuffed him to a fence outside. That’s when the robot had it’s way with the robber. It removed the tape and probed his mouth, finding no bomb.

Comedian and star of stage, screen, and film Nipsy Russel died today at the age of 80. Wildcats would have been just another Goldie Hawn vehicle without this funnyman. God bless, Nipsy, god bless.
