Justin said he was “Justine” and he and Antonio were married as husband and husband. To be honest, I’m not sure what bothers me more: that they were able to pull this off with no one paying attention or the fact that Antonio is 31 and Justin is only 18. That kind of age difference would bother me were it a dude and gal. Creepy…
But it’s not his hate of tires that’s at issue, it’s the lying about his hate of tires:
[D]efense attorneys also were able to get Levar Stoney, of Virginia, and Leshaunda Joy Williams, of New York, to admit they lied to Milwaukee Police Department interrogators shortly after the Nov. 2, 2004 incident in order to safely flee the city. Stoney and Williams both were in Milwaukee to help hype Dem turnout in the final weeks of the Kerry-Edwards presidential bid.
Both Stoney and Williams told the FBI in subsequent interviews that they heard most of the five men brag about their role in the slashing of tires on nearly 100 vehicles rented by the GOP.
Alright, well maybe he himself doesn’t hate tires, but he’s protective of folks who do.
Stoney also admitted he lied to Milwaukee detectives. But when approached in Virginia by the FBI he said he deemed it his “civic duty” to admit he heard the men talk about the vandalism once they returned to party headquarters.
It wasn’t his “civic duty” to tell the truth to begin with? Is it going to take the FBI approaching him to get the truth out of DPVA?
Scott and Jim hit on this over the weekend. Jim Hoeft has thoughts as well.
Why all the hatin’ lately? Because you have an iPod.

VCU uses this clunky, not always working system called Banner to allow students to view their status, register for classes, get a copy of their transcripts, and all sorts of other things. They moved to this system a while back and keep adding features that don’t exactly work right. Now they’ve added a disclaimer I must accept before continuing:

Which makes me wonder, who did what with Banner in the past to make this necessary? Maybe it’s because I’m all innocent and couldn’t possibly conceive what someone would do once they’re in Banner, but is this really needed? Ah well. Off to click “Continue”.
According to Amazon.com, Richmond ranks among the “Top 20 Most Romantic Cities in America” based on “‘sales data of romance novels, relationship and sex books’ since Jan. 1″. So that creepy dude with his hands in his pockets as he browses the sophisticate section at Barnes and Noble is a romantic in Amazon.com’s eyes. The DC area has three locations in the top 11. Point of pride? I’ll let NOVA decide… (via Adam and Jeremy)
What exactly is (MONOGAMY)^100 supposed to mean? And does it even work as an advertising slogan?
I just met a Dennis Kucinich supporter who’s circulating petitions to get him on the Democratic ballot in Virginia. She’s also circulating petitions for Ron Paul.
Fark.com wants to trademark “NSFW”. Asinine tag would have been used but is probably also trademarked.
No, it’s not because young Obama said someone smelled like doodie but because he wrote that one day he thought becoming President would be pretty neat:
In kindergarten, Senator Obama wrote an essay titled ‘I Want to Become President.’ “Iis Darmawan, 63, Senator Obama’s kindergarten teacher, remembers him as an exceptionally tall and curly haired child who quickly picked up the local language and had sharp math skills. He wrote an essay titled, ‘I Want To Become President,’ the teacher said.” [AP, 1/25/07 ]
He even repeated his intentions in the third grade! Thanks to the Clinton camp for putting to rest that horrible lie that Obama hadn’t planned on running for President. Someone get the bar of soap ready.
Note to 5 year olds: Don’t dream. Someone will use it against you one of these days.
Stop the virtual presses! CNN, known for its hard hitting journalism and crack ability to check the background of questioners at supposedly screened partisan debates, has finally figured out why bad kissers don’t get to second base! This discovery was so important that it’s made their front page:
Now exploding zambonis, THAT’S news, especially when it has video.
Bad kissers not getting to second base has been around since the dawn of man. And that’s assuming that kissing itself isn’t second base. (Kids today…)
The rocket science behind this study says that:
59 percent of men and 66 percent of women said they’ve been in the position of being attracted to someone — until they kissed the person. (I have removed the CNN link to “Check Out Some Famous Kissing” because, well, I can. – J~)
“At the moment of the kiss, there’s a very complicated exchange of information … that may tap into underlying evolved mechanisms” cluing us in on whether we’re genetically compatible, explains Gordon Gallup, co-author of the study and professor of psychology at the State University of New York at Albany. “A kiss can be a deal-breaker in terms of whether a relationship will flower or flounder, so to speak.”
Rachel Myeroff, 26, can attest to that. On a second date with a guy, says the New York City-based sales manager, “he just went in for it and attached himself to me in the sloppiest, most horrible kiss ever. He was just consuming my mouth. I most definitely did not call him again.”
We needed a Gallup poll and study published in a psychological journal to tell us this. Experience wasn’t good enough, oh no, let’s go ask people about kissing. I wonder how many guys doing this study used it as a pick-up line. “Hey, baby, I’m doing a psychological study to see if kissing gets folks to second base so let’s say we make out and see where the night takes us.” (I may have to file that one away in the ol’ pick-up line section of the J~ brain.)
It’s just, I don’t know, isn’t there more going on in the world that really should matter than the no brainer that is bad kissers don’t get all that far? Maybe it isn’t for the folks at CNN. Maybe this is their public service story for the week. Who knows. At least it’s being addressed, I guess.
Jurassic Park 4 to feature dinosaurs with freakin’ lasers on their heads. Or something like that. A Jurassic 5 joke will have to wait for the next movie, I guess.
