The ex-weight lifter who lead a small group of people in tearing down Saddam’s statue in Baghdad says he regrets his actions. He had hope that the occupation would save Iraq now he says he has learned the following lesson: “The devil you know is better that the devil you don’t.”
Mars’ south pole has a ice deposit so large it could cover the entire planet in 36 feet of water… That’s not very deep. Apparently Mars didn’t have many whales, or perhaps it was better known for its stingrays. Crickey! How long until the prophecies of Futurama ring true and the giant ice-cube solution is implemented to curb global warming?
According to the Journal of Blacks in Higher Education a study has been published which determines that racism is widespread amongst white male college students. When in private they use the N-word “frequently”, and refer to blacks as “being prone to criminal behavior, having hyperactive sex drives, and being lazy.” Don’t the last two stereotypes contradict each other? Oh, those racist crackers are always contradicting themselves.
South Africa (or Sith Afreeka if you like) is proposing a 90 day “time-out” on sanctions against Iran. You remember the rules. No tagging Iran during time-out. This is the carrot, as they say.
40 Things That Only Happen in Movies. I’m going to suggest the following addition: It is never necessary to watch the road while driving, occasionally checking it between dialogue will suffice.

The only way to defeat an impossible number of Asians all trained in martial arts is with one white person. Conversely, the only way to beat a white behemoth is with a small, yet fast Asian. If a black martial arts master is entered into the equation, he will kick a lot of ass in the beginning of any tournament, but die mid-movie because he was too cocky.
