      Hillary Clinton Has Invited You to Ridicule Her Facebook Profile

      Posted by Billbar from Rolling Stone

      A website typically understood as a borderline creepy forum for confirming new friendships, announcing weekend party plans and stalking hot acquaintances is now a legitimatized platform for down-to-earth, middle-aged legislators (read: computer illiterate) to interact with youth constituents on their own turf. New York’s Junior Senator Hillary Clinton tags “Chappaqua, NY” as her hometown, Democratic Presidential hopeful Evan Bayh’s “interests” include “Middle Class,” “War On Terror” and “Grater’s Black Raspberry Ice Cream,” while Pennsylvania’s politically doomed senatorial incumbent Rick Santorum lists and sporadically capitalizes his favorite campaign issues like “Stay in Iraq until the Job is Done,” “Free Trade IS Fair Trade,” and “Build a fence to protect our borders!”

    • Canada troops battle 10-ft Afghan marijuana plants

      Posted by Billbar from Reuters UK

      Canadian troops fighting Taliban militants in Afghanistan have stumbled across an unexpected and potent enemy -- almost impenetrable forests of 10-feet high marijuana plants. General Rick Hillier, chief of the Canadian defence staff, said on Thursday that Taliban fighters were using the forests as cover. In response, the crew of at least one armored car had camouflaged their vehicle with marijuana. One soldier told him later: "Sir, three years ago before I joined the army, I never thought I'd say 'That damn marijuana'."

    • Oops ... police hit the wrong house in porn raid

      Posted by Billbar from Seattle Post-Intelligencer

      For a 67-year-old homeowner and his wife, wrongly subjected to a shattering pornography search, saying, "Oops, wrong number" is not enough. Spokane County Sheriff Ozzie Knezovich apologized Tuesday for the blunder, which he said resulted when Detective Timothy Hines tried to nail whoever was responsible for obscene calls to at least 20 women enrolled at Whitworth College.

    Man With Twin Living Inside Him

    Really? Wow, that’s amazing! If the twin was actually living inside of him, did he have any kind of consciousness? Intriguing.

    Nothing remarkable. I have worked in the hospitality industry most of my life. My interests tend to be of things spiritual, about science, the fringes of knowledge, chess, and computer programming to name a few.
