Angry Soon To Be Ex-husbands

My advice to Sara Evans' soon to be ex-husband is to shut up, accept that his wife doesn't love him anymore and figure out a way to spend the settlement money. Doing obnoxious shit like this just makes him look like a child.

Anita Roddick R.I.P.

Anita Roddick had a lot of faults but I have to think that she did her best to make the world a better place, even just a little. I am not sure if I believe there is a Heaven anymore but on the chance that there is I would like to think that she is the kind of person that would end up there .

Jon Swift on Petraeus

Jon Swift only posts sporadically but when he does it is always worth reading.

My biggest fear is that something not far from this will become the actual take on what is happening in which case Democratic Party Leadership will need the assistance of this.

Odd Couple

According to the CBC Belinda Stronach and Tie Domi are no longer a couple. For my American readers (cough cough .. like anyone reads this) this is roughly the equivalent of finding out that Condi Rice has just broken up with Terrell Owens.

Hand Scans

I saw this the other day and thought it was so cool that I passed it along to my VP. I never pass anything along to my VP unless he has asked for it in a memo so I hope I am still employed on Monday

4 Moncton teens killed in head-on crash

I have a horrible feeling that this is going to turn out to be a case of playing highway leapfrog based mostly on this part of the story

"The three girls that were in the car that was being passed were actually friends of the victims, so we were able to get statements from them,"

The stupid things that teenage boys do to impress teenage girls shouldn't be punishable by death .. sigh

Jodie Foster -- Smart Person

Jodie Foster has a new movie coming out shortly and she gave a rather interesting interview to LA Weekly

There was a time in Jodie Foster’s life when she was on the verge of giving up acting. She no longer found it rewarding, this business of saying someone else’s lines as if they were her own; she found herself wishing for a profession that would challenge her and make use of her considerable analytical gifts

----snip-----

She figured this out, she says, and rededicated herself to her work.

She was 12 years old.

I am 45 and I don't have that kind of self awareness
