Jesus loves you!

Scary pic of the day:

“God, I and he knows what he did,” [Paula] Jones [of Clinton-impeachment fame] told CNN on Tuesday. (read more)
Good. I don’t think anyone else needs to know. And I’m pretty sure God’s kicking himself for peeking. (And check your grammar next time!)
“Bill Clinton pretends to be contrite, but he continues to [...]

Unsettling States of America

So, the Coffee’s kicked in (Starbucks Kenya Blend — yum) and I’ve gotten over the minor disappointment that Starbucks ran out of Summer Fruit Cobbler (WARNING: Addictive), and I’ve trawled the news sites and I’m ready to go.
