Yes, it’s true Gary Coleman is running for Governor of California. That place is like Disneyland all over. Heck, Disneyland even lives there. This race could heat up considerably over the next few days. I think the Terminator might pull it off, but that remains to be seen. I’m just waiting for Stiffler to throw his hat in the ring, then all bets are off.

I really want to move to California now. I guess it’s too late for me to get my name on the list to vote. Wahhh!

It would be great to live in a place where Arnold (either the German or the midget) was the Governor. Can you imagine what that would be like? Willis as Attourney General… no more three strikes laws. Perhaps finance minister could be Carrottop. He sure knows how to save money on a phone call. Oh well, dare to dream. And Larry Flynt’s bid? Hey, it could be worse.

Which is which? I got 8 out of 10. Thanks to company brainiac Carl S for the link. He got 9 out of 10.

Look it’s a jacuzzi for my TV obsessed wife. Thanks to Donnie Mac for the link.

Herald Sun: J.Lo dumps Ben and they didn’t even get married.

There’s noise that the above may not be true.

Larry Flynt wanted you to pary for the death of Bill O’Reilly yesterday. Did you? I didn’t. Is Mr O’Reilly still kicking? I love the disclaimer at the bottom of the poster.

Check out the Five Habits of Millionaires article on MSN Careers. I have some adjustments to make.

It’s been 58 years today since the bombing of Hiroshima, Japan by the US in an attempt to finish the Second World War. The vaporization of this city and 230,000 of its inhabitants then the bombing of Nagasaki and 74,000 more people 3 days later on August 9, 1945 was enough for the Japanese to throw in the towel. Yes it ended the war, but was it worth it? Who’s to say? I don’t believe that any violent loss of life, especially civilian, is necessary or acceptable. I’m glad I don’t have to make those life and death decisions. That kind of thing is better left to sociopathic politicians willing to kill for the ‘greater good’. I pray that this never happens again. But the barometer is rising in many parts of the world and signs are pointing to nuclear conflict, or at the very least a standoff, within the next 5 years.

During remeberance ceremonies today in Hiroshima, the mayor of that city lashed out at the Bush administration’s policies on nuclear weapons. As someone who governed a state where the death penalty is so casually meted out and as a right-leaning President with a September 11th sized chip (and rightly so) on his shoulder, I’m not sure Mr Bush is listening. Honestly, that scares me.

This is an official announcement to express my deep hatred to the crappiest vending machine on the planet, that just happens to be ten feet away from me. I think it hates us too. It won’t take our money, the guy who fills it up doesn’t replace the contents with any consistent products, so if you like something one week, it’s gone the next, and it shakes up my pop for me. My diet coke always (and I mean always) explodes.

That is all. Carry on.
