American Idiot

Jeeeee-zeus. V-PILF, when asked which newspapers and/or magazines she reads that help shape her world view responds, "uh, well, all of 'em".

She makes Quayle look like the president of Mensa.

"When you say nothin' at all....."

Oh, and she has a degree in journalism..... from the University of Phoenix, apparently.

Hilarity from DKos comments.

Daily Kos: State of the Nation:

"And Gooch speculates on how she (Palin) would answer if asked how she spells her name:

Oh, you know... pretty much the way you would. It's a very common name, you know, not -- I mean a lot of people have heard one like it. I spell it the same way I always, the way my mother taught me, just like you and everybody else. There's this, you know, crazy perception that we, Alaska, you know we spell just like everyone does. It's not this strange foreign country unlike Washington. But, you know, like, I, you know, I get it--this gotcha journalism we all have to deal with these days. Plus, you know I can see that Russian guy in the morning from where I live. Nkay?"

PageOneQ | Fundamentalists blame Wall Street's woes on gays:

"Christian fundamentalists are suggesting gays and lesbians are to blame for Wall Street's woes, a frequently made charge in the wake of national calamities.

In a September 25th blog post titled 'The Nation Will Right Itself If It Fixes Sex', Christian Civil League of Maine Executive Director Michael Heath writes that the financial crisis facing Wall Street is a symptom of America's sinful sexual culture, including the acceptance of gay unions.

“Our crisis is a symptom, not the cause,” writes Michael Heath. “I am not saying I know whether this financial crisis is God's judgment or not. It is not for me to know that definitively.”"

"Its not for me to say that the financial crisis is god's judgment or not..... but the lord does want me to blame it on teh gays, that I know for sure...."

I hate religious whack-jobs.

Not sure what this says, but it says something.... The only one out of 500.

I must have some of this beer.

Ancient yeast reborn in modern beer (ABC News in Science):

"A tiny colony of yeast trapped inside a Lebanese weevil covered in ancient Burmese amber for up to 45 million years, has been brought back to life in barrels of beer.

Emeritus Professor Raul Cano of the California Polytechnic State University, originally extracted the yeast a decade ago, along with more than 2000 different kinds of microscopic creatures.

Today, Cano uses the reactivated yeast to brew barrels of pale ale and German wheat beer.

'You can always buy brewing yeast, and your product will be based on the brewmaster's recipes,' says Cano. 'Our yeast has a double angle: We have yeast no one else has and our own beer recipes.'

The beer received good reviews at the Russian River Beer Festival and from other reviewers. The Oakland Tribune beer critic, William Brand, said the beer has 'a weird spiciness at the finish,' and The Washington Post said the beer was 'smooth and spicy.'"
