It seems Pope Francis needs to brush up on his Tertullian!

It has been reported (in The ChristLast Media, I must note) that the current Pope does not like the phrase "lead us not into temptation...

"Let no freedom be allowed to novelty, because it is not fitting that any addition should be made to antiquity. Let not the clear faith and belief of our forefathers be fouled by any muddy admixture." -- Pope Sixtus III

The Salt Lake Tribune: Ogden police dog puts truck in gear, runs over woman
They can sniff out drugs, find lost people and track down suspects, but K-9s are not trained to drive. So people in Ogden are wondering how one police dog slipped a truck into gear Tuesday and ran over a woman, seriously injuring her. "I've been here for almost 30 years and this is the first time I've heard it happening," said Ogden police Lt. Loring Draper...

The News-Press: Attackers Super Glue woman's mouth shut

JACKSONVILLE, FL -- One First Coast woman was out walking her dog Tuesday afternoon in her Arlington neighborhood. She says when the dog walk came to an end, a terrifying few minutes began.

"It's hard to talk about it" the woman told First Coast News. She wanted to tell us her story if we concealed her identity.

She says when she walked in her house, five masked women came out of the bedrooms and attacked her.

"You can't fight back because there are five of them," she said.

"They made me take my clothes off. They ripped my shirt off with a knife. They made me turn over on my stomach on the bed and they tied my feet together."

She says one of the attackers decided she was making too much noise.

"They were trying to look for something to put in my mouth, and they found some super glue I had, and they thought it would be funny to super glue my lips shut."

She says the women held her mouth open, put super glue on her lips, and held her mouth shut until it dried.

She says she could not talk, move, or see.

"They were hitting me in my back. I couldn't cry out because I was scared I'd rip my lips."

"Then they went to the front of the house, and I started hearing breaking of personal items, and pictures being ripped off the wall."

Back in the bedroom, she says the attackers stabbed the bed on each side of her head, and left the knives in the mattress.

She lay there for awhile, until she thought it was safe to move.

She says she got one hand out of the handcuffs, and pulled one knife out of the bed to cut herself free.

She put on clothes and ran outside.

"My neighbor helped me get my lips apart and then we called 911."

The Jacksonville Sheriff's Office says the women may have pushed a dryer up to a back window to get inside.

It's not the woman's first scare.

She says the message "Leave or Die" was spray-painted on her front door a few weeks ago.

"I was scared that that was going to be the day that it was going to happen, that they were going to kill me."

Investigators are looking into the possibility that one of the attackers may have had a relationship with the victim's fiancé. (Emphasis mine.)

Hmmm...I wonder why the guy broke up with that one...



BUGS ATTACK MICHELLE WIE...

...or, Interview With A Sixteen Year Old.


Michelle Wie Interview
Editor’s Note: Michelle Wie’s sixth foray onto the PGA Tour wasn’t quite as successful as the 16-year-old prodigy had hoped. Her first round in the John Deere Classic at the Tournament Players Club at Deere Run in East Moline, Ill., was an unspectacular 6-over 77. Here’s what Wie had to say after Thursday’s round.

MODERATOR: We thank Michelle Wie for stopping in after a 6 over 77 in today's first round of the John Deere Classic. I know it's not the start you hoped for today. First couple holes you had a couple balls go right off the tee it seemed today.

MICHELLE WIE: Yeah. I mean, it was very uncharacteristic of me to do that, but I felt like considering that I had the water hazard penalties, considering that I had to call unplayable, considering that I hit my driver like 50 yards right, I felt like I played really well. I felt like I made a lot of great up and downs, I felt like I putted great, my irons were good. You know, on the last couple holes during the back nine, I felt like my driver was working very well. I feel like I have a lot of confidence going into tomorrow.

MODERATOR: Looks like you shook off that front nine on the back there. Tell us what was the change from the front to back?

MICHELLE WIE: You know, I just changed my posture a little bit and tweaked around a little bit, played around with my shots. It couldn't get any worse, so I just played around with it. Luckily it worked, so I'll keep that same mentality going for tomorrow.

Q. That bug on the second tee kind of seemed to get to you a little bit.

WTF???

MICHELLE WIE: I mean, literally I had like five of them on me. As soon as I got on the ball I mean, it's okay if the bugs are like around the ball, I can handle that. But they were crawling on my arm, they were on my hand, they were on my head. I mean, it was just ridiculous. I had to step back like five times. It was just very unfortunate.

Q. Did that kind of throw you off, your concentration?

MICHELLE WIE: I would like to say it didn't, but it bothered me a little bit. Bugs on me, I hate bugs, and I was starting to get a little aggravated like the fifth time I stepped out. I was a little aggravated, but I felt like I shook it off. Obviously I didn't hit that tee shot the way I wanted to, but I don't think it was because of the bugs.

Q. How were you feeling physically today as far as coming into the round? Were you tired at all and did you have any aches and pains or anything during the round?

MICHELLE WIE: No, I felt pretty good. It was very hot out there. I'm not really used to wearing long pants in the heat, but it was okay. I mean, obviously there's a lot of hills on this golf course, but I didn't really feel tired. I was sweating a lot out there, but I felt like I hydrated myself very well when I had to, and I kept my energy level up all around.

It is a crime to make a girl with legs like that wear long pants. She should be sent back to the chick tour where she can wear miniskirts as Hootie Johnson intended.

Q. Last year after the first round you were 1 under. Just talk about how disappointing I guess it is for you to be where you are now compared to where you were at this time last year.

MICHELLE WIE: Well, I didn't make the cut shooting 1 under on the first round, so maybe shooting 6 over might do it (laughter).

Hahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahaha-
hahahahahahahahahahahahaha!

That's another reason they call it gambling.

New York Times: Better Dead Than Read
by Ann Coulter

When I told a New York Observer reporter that my only regret was that Timothy McVeigh didn't hit the New York Times building, I knew many would agree with me -- but I didn't expect that to include the New York Times. And yet, the Times is doing everything in its power to help the terrorists launch another attack on New York City.

As with forced school busing, liberals seem to believe that the consequences of their insane ideas can be confined to the outer boroughs.

Last year, the Times revealed a top secret program tracking phone calls connected to numbers found in Khalid Shaikh Mohammed's cell phone. How much more probable cause do you need, folks? Shall we do this as a diagram? How about in the form of an SAT question -- or is that a touchy subject for the publisher of the Times? "9/11 architect Khalid Shaikh Mohammed is to terrorist attacks as ..."?

Their reaction to al-Zarqawi's death was to lower the U.S. flag at the Times building to half-staff. (Ha ha -- just kidding! Everybody knows there aren't any American flags at the New York Times.)

Ha! It's funny because it's true.

And most recently, ignoring the pleas of the administration, 9/11 commissioners and even certifiable liberal Rep. Jack Murtha, the Times revealed another top secret program that had allowed the Treasury Department to track terrorists' financial transactions.

We're in a battle for our survival and we don't even know who the enemy is. As liberals are constantly reminding us, Islam is a "Religion of Peace." One very promising method of distinguishing the "Religion of Peace" Muslims from the "Slit Their Throats" Muslims is by following the al Qaeda money trail.

But now we've lost that ability -- thanks to the New York Times.

People have gotten so inured to ridiculous behavior on the left that they are no longer capable of appropriate outrage when something truly treasonous happens. It is rather like the rape accusation against Bill Clinton losing its impact because of the steady stream of perjury, obstruction of justice, treason, adultery and general sociopathic behavior coming from that administration.

This is a phenomenon known in the self-help community as "Clinton fatigue" (not to be confused with the lower back pain associated with excessive sexual activity known as "Clinton back").

Heehee!

In December 1972, Ronald Reagan called President Richard Nixon after watching Walter Cronkite's coverage of the Vietnam War on "CBS News," telling Nixon that "under World War II circumstances, the network would have been charged with treason."

Ah, the good old days...

No treason charges were brought, but we still have to hear liberals carrying on about Nixon's monstrous persecution of the press -- which was so ungrateful of him, considering how nicely the press treated him.

Today, Times editors and columnists are doing what liberals always do when they're caught red-handed committing treason: They scream that they're being "intimidated" before hurling more invective. This is getting to be like listening to the Soviet Union complaining about the intimidation coming from Finland.

Liberals are always play-acting that they are under some monstrous attack from the right wing as they insouciantly place all Americans in danger. Their default position is umbrage, bordering on high dudgeon.

We've had to listen to them whine for 50 years about the brute Joe McCarthy, whose name liberals blackened while sheltering Soviet spies.

In 1985, Times columnist Anthony Lewis accused the Reagan administration of trying to "intimidate the press." Channeling Anthony Lewis this week, Frank Rich claims the Bush administration has "manufactured and milked this controversy to reboot its intimidation of the press, hoping journalists will pull punches in an election year."

Rich's evidence of the brutal crackdown on the press was the statement of San Francisco radio host Melanie Morgan -- who, by the way, is part of the press -- proposing the gas chamber for the editor of the Times if he were found guilty of treason, which happens to be the punishment prescribed by law. (Once again Frank Rich finds himself in over his head when not writing about gay cowboy movies.)

HEEHEE! Perfect.

I prefer a firing squad, but I'm open to a debate on the method of execution. A conviction for treason would be assured under any sensible legal system.

But however many Americans agree with Reagan on prosecuting treason, we can't even get President Bush to stop building up the liberal media by appearing on their low-rated TV shows -- in the process, dissing TV hosts who support him and command much larger TV audiences. American consumers keep driving CNN's ratings down, and then Bush drives them back up again. So I wouldn't count on any treason charges emanating from this administration.

This is how Bush "intimidates" the press? The level of intimidation I had in mind is more along the lines of how President Dwight D. Eisenhower "intimidated" Julius and Ethel Rosenberg at 8 in the morning, June 19, 1953.

Amen to that, Sister.

Behold! The "palestinian" goat rapists die for the greater glory of Iran and Syria!

Here's the bottom line:

Iran and Syria will NOT go to war with Israel over Hamas and Hezbollah, though they will give their terrorist proxies enough guns and money to fight to the death.

IF (In case you didn't notice, that's a big if.) Israel has the strength of will to resist the pressure from the US and the "international community" and prosecute this war as they should, the goat rapists might leave her alone for a generation.

Sadly, there are few real men running Israel these days.

AP: Israeli warplanes strike in Beirut again
BEIRUT, Lebanon - Israeli warplanes punished the Lebanese capital on Friday, blasting the airport for a second day, shattering bridges, igniting fuel storage tanks and cutting the main highway to Syria. Hezbollah guerrillas fought back with a fresh barrage of rockets. Police said three people were killed and dozens wounded in the airstrikes, raising the death toll to 60 on the third day of Israel's offensive against the Iranian-backed militants.

Man, 80, traded crack for sex

How screwed up are we, kiddies? This one is too common to qualify as a SEX IS DEATH story.

An 80-year-old Bloomfield man pleaded guilty Wednesday to charges he traded crack cocaine from his home.

Felix Cocco had been dealing drugs off his back porch for nearly a year when Pittsburgh police first arrested him in November. They seized crack, a digital scale, packaging materials and a pistol during that bust. He was caught dealing again in February.

"I was trying to stay alive, your honor, pay my bills," Cocco said after Allegheny County Common Pleas Judge Jeffrey A. Manning asked why he had chosen a new profession so late in life.

Defense attorney Martha Bailor said Cocco wanted to remain sexually active after his wife died three years ago, and turned to prostitutes.

"He decided it's cheaper to pay for sex with crack than cash," Bailor told the judge.

Assistant District Attorney Matt Wholey said he would forgo seeking mandatory sentences that would put Cocco in prison for at least seven years if Cocco and Bailor agreed to a six-to-18-month jail term.

Manning ordered a pre-sentence evaluation of Cocco's health at the request of Bailor, who said she was concerned about her client's "vulnerability" in jail.

Manning also put Cocco on house arrest -- during which he will wear an electronic-monitoring bracelet -- until he is sentenced on Oct. 2. (Thanks to the Pittsburgh Tribune-Review for the heads up.)

Who are they gonna dig up 200 years from now? Clinton?

AP: Italian scientists exhume body of castrato

Scientists have exhumed the body of the legendary 18th-century opera singer Farinelli to learn more about the castrati, male singers neutered in childhood to preserve their high-pitched voices.

Farinelli was the most popular and best-paid opera singer in Europe before his death in 1782. His remains were exhumed Wednesday from the historic Certosa cemetery in Bologna, said musicologist Carlo Vitali, a founder of the Farinelli Studies Center.

The bones will be examined by scientists from the universities of Bologna and Pisa for insights into Farinelli's lifestyle, habits and possible diseases, as well as the physiology of a castrato.

Scientists were surprised to find not just Farinelli's remains but also those of his grandniece Carlotta Pisani Broschi.

"When Carlotta died in 1850, the grave was reopened and Farinelli's bones were stacked together at the base of the tomb to make (a) place for Carlotta's remains," Vitali said Thursday.

The stacking of the bones degraded the preservation of Farinelli's remains, which included his jawbone, several teeth, parts of his skull and almost all of his major bones.

Vitali described the major bones as "long and sturdy, which would correspond with Farinelli's official portraits, as well as the castrati's reputation for being unusually tall."

SDI is on its way. And it works.

AAP: THAAD System Intercepts Live Missile Target

The US military said it successfully tested a missile-shield component built by Lockheed Martin Corp to shoot down a ballistic missile in the last minute or so of its flight.

The so-called Terminal High Altitude Area Defense weapon system, or THAAD, "exceeded its objectives" in the long-planned test by shooting down a non-separating Hera target missile at White Sands Missile Range, New Mexico, Lockheed said in a statement.

THAAD, which is still being developed, is to be part of a layered shield meant to defend against all ranges of ballistic missiles in all phases of flight.

The backbone of the fledgling US shield - a ground-based system coordinated by Boeing Co. to thwart long-range missiles in the middle of their flight path - was on alert during North Korea's missile launches a week ago.

Of 10 planned flight tests of the ground-based, mid-course system, five have ended with successful intercepts. In the two most recent ones, the interceptor did not get off the ground.

The THAAD element is designed to destroy short- and intermediate-range ballistic missiles in their terminal flight phase - approximately the last minute of flight.

The Pentagon plans to field two units consisting of 24 missiles each, the first one in 2009 and the second one by December 2011, according to the Government Accountability Office, Congress's investigative and audit arm.

"Initial indications are that all planned flight test objectives were achieved," the Pentagon's Missile Defense Agency said of the THAAD test.

Pam Rogers, an agency spokeswoman, said the test had "absolutely no connection to the situation in North Korea," which test-fired at least seven ballistic missiles on July 5, including a multistage Taepodong 2 missile with a potential range that could include Alaska.

This marked the third successful THAAD developmental flight test since such testing resumed in November 2005. The remaining tests are for verifying the system's capabilities at "increasingly difficult levels," the Missile Defense Agency said.

Totalitarian Pennsylvania Update.

Philly Machine hack "Slow Eddie" Rendell is just another big government, high tax, big spending, leftist moron vote buyer. You should have known better, Pennsylvania.

From the Pittsburgh Tribune-Review and AP:

State spending during Gov. Ed Rendell's first three years in office increased faster than the national average, while his first-term spending is projected to be just shy of the two-decade peak set by the late former Gov. Robert P. Casey.

Counting the budget for the current fiscal year, which Rendell just signed, the state's general fund budget has grown by $5.7 billion, or 28 percent, since he took office in 2003, according to an Associated Press analysis of figures provided by the state budget office.

Casey, a fellow Democrat whose son is now the state treasurer, approved increases that totaled 28.3 percent during his first term, from 1987 to 1990. In Casey's second term, spending grew by 26.2 percent.

In between the Casey and Rendell administrations, the two Republican governors who shared an eight-year tenure _ Tom Ridge and Mark Schweiker _ held spending growth to well below 20 percent in each four-year term.

The comparison is important because Republican Lynn Swann, Rendell's re-election challenger, is making an issue of Rendell's fiscal stewardship.

Within hours after the Republican-controlled Legislature passed the fourth and last budget of Rendell's first term, which will increase spending by 5.8 percent over last year, Swann issued a statement calling the budget "bloated" and urging Rendell to veto it.

The overall dollar increase during the Rendell administration has been fueled largely by an expansion in subsidies for public schools, pensions, medical care for the poor and child care services. The former Philadelphia mayor has made a point of keeping services for the poor intact while pouring money into signature programs targeted at improving early childhood education.

Rendell's average annual increase of 6.6 percent in his first three years is nearly a percentage point bigger than the 5.7 percent average annual increase in other states' general fund budgets over the same period, according to figures from the National Association of State Budget Officers.

It is also bigger than the 5.5 percent average annual increase in other states' general fund budgets over the previous two decades, the figures show.

Just in case you are wondering what exactly Catholics believe, here is

The Apostles Creed

I believe in God, the Father Almighty, Creator of Heaven and earth; and in Jesus Christ, His only Son Our Lord, Who was conceived by the Holy Spirit, born of the Virgin Mary, suffered under Pontius Pilate, was crucified, died, and was buried.He descended into Hell; the third day He rose again from the dead; He ascended into Heaven, and sitteth at the right hand of God, the Father almighty; from thence He shall come to judge the living and the dead.I believe in the Holy Spirit, the holy Catholic Church, the communion of saints, the forgiveness of sins, the resurrection of the body and life everlasting. Amen.


Memorare

Remember, O most gracious Virgin Mary, that never was it known that any one who fled to thy protection, implored thy help or sought thy intercession,was left unaided.Inspired with this confidence, I fly unto thee, O Virgin of virgins my Mother; to thee do I come, before thee I stand, sinful and sorrowful; O Mother of the Word Incarnate, despise not my petitions, but in thy clemency hear and answer me. Amen.


St. Joseph, her most chaste spouse, pray for us.


Prayer to St. Anthony, Martyr of Desire

Dear St. Anthony, you became a Franciscan with the hope of shedding your blood for Christ. In God's plan for you, your thirst for martyrdom was never to be satisfied. St. Anthony, Martyr of Desire, pray that I may become less afraid to stand up and be counted as a follower of the Lord Jesus. Intercede also for my other intentions. (Name them.)


Prayer To Saint Michael The Archangel

St. Michael the Archangel, defend us in battle, be our defense against the wickedness and snares of the devil; may God rebuke him, we humbly pray, and do thou O Prince of the heavenly hosts, by the divine power, thrust into hell Satan and all the evil spirits who prowl about the world seeking the ruin of souls. Amen.


Prayer to End Abortion

Lord God, I thank You today for the gift of my life, and for the lives of all my brothers and sisters. I know there is nothing that destroys more life than abortion, yet I rejoice that you have conquered death by the resurrection of Your Son. I am ready to do my part to end abortion. Today I commit myself never to be silent, never to be passive, and never to be forgetful of the unborn. I commit myself to be active in the pro-life movement, and never stop defending life until all my brothers and sisters are protected and our nation once again becomes a nation with liberty and justice, not just for some, but for all. Through Christ our Lord. Amen.


Prayer For Vocations

Send forth your Spirit, Lord, into the hearts of your faithful people, that we may be conscious of our vocation to holiness and sevice to others. Grant that many of us may dedicate ourselves to You through the priesthood and the religious life.We pray especially for the needs of our own parish and diocese. Grant that we may always have sufficient good and holy priests, and dedicated Sisters to serve our commumities.We pray, too, for religious orders; that generous men may join them to become zealous missionaries in preaching the Gospel in word and action, especially to the poor and abandoned.We make this prayer through Jesus Christ, Our Lord and Redeemer. Amen.

Religion of Peace and Love Coming to Your Town Update.

Fyodor's Website of the Day is usually a happy or fun place to visit. Today's isn't.

IslamicFinder is interesting. The way serial killers are interesting.



Here is my periodic warning to however many decent
mohammedans there are left in this world:

Eradicate the murderous strain of ignorance in your midst or it will be done for you. The rest of the world may be fat, lazy, and slow to anger, but it will destroy you (innocent and guilty alike) in order to survive.

Anyway, IslamicFinder has oodles of fascinating articles. Joe Kaufman of FrontPage Magazine found these while writing a story on the proliferation of death-cult mohammedan mosques in America:

In the Islamic Finder article, entitled “50 Signs of the Day of Judgment,” an impending war is discussed between Muslims and “the Jews plus other non-Muslims led by the Antichrist.” According to the article, the Antichrist “will be followed by 70,000 Jews.”

Whoa! Arlen Specter, call your office.

Another Islamic Finder article describes in which instances and to what degree a husband is allowed to beat his wife. It states, “It is important that a wife recognizes the authority of her husband in the house. He is the head of the household, and she is supposed to listen to him… If there arises any disagreement or dispute among them, then it should be resolved in a peaceful manner… However, in some cases a husband may use some light disciplinary action in order to correct the moral infraction of his wife…”

Golly, that's not a very nice way to treat the fairer sex, is it, kiddies? I'll bet that's why all the gals over at NOW joined the Army and went to Iraq to filet those goat rapists from the crotch on up.

As a Catholic, I found 20 Causes of Forgiveness of Future Sins to be particularly unsound.

What is the Shape of the Earth?* tells us mohammedan scholars beat that old rascal Columbus to the punch.

The Appearance of Gog and Magog will appeal to the Left Behind crowd.

Life With the TV cautions good mohammedan parents to stop their kiddies from watching Fox News and other Crusader broadcasts.

There is one article entitled Can a Muslim woman ask a Muslim man to...?, but I wouldn't touch that with a ten foot pole.

10 Books Every Muslim Should Read! Now there's something to pique Your Humble Servant's interest. Not surprisingly, the only one on the list I have read is The Autobiography of Malcolm X as told to the arch-conman Alex Haley. How pathetic! How could the folks who discovered the earth was round* end up slurping the obviously heterodox Citizen X?

I will end with #99, Punishment In The Hellfire, which more mohammedans should take to heart.

Memo To The Mohammedans: If you think I am picking on your religion, I want you to know I would gladly post something similar on any other false religion, like protestantism. Just send me a link to their foolishness.

Fascist Carter-appointed judge assures election fraud will go unpunished.

The Columbus Dispatch: Georgia not allowed to require voter IDs

The same federal judge who threw out Georgia’s voter ID law last year blocked the state yesterday from enforcing its revised law during this year’s elections...

U.S. District Judge Harold Murphy’s ruling, which he delivered orally from the bench, was much broader, also including the Nov. 7 general elections and any runoffs.

If the rulings stand, Georgia voters will not have to show a government-issued photo ID to cast a ballot this year. The state’s primary election — which would have been the first election for which the IDs were required — is Tuesday.

Murphy said the state’s latest attempt to require photo IDs for voters discriminated against people who don’t have driver’s licenses, passports or other government IDs.

"That is the failure of this legislation as it stands," he said.

THIS is baseball!

Soccer? HA!

AP: Man, 83, is oldest pro baseball player

SIOUX FALLS, S.D. - No one in the bleachers at the Sioux Falls Canaries game was quite sure what was going on down on the field. They were all quiet, wondering and transfixed on the little old man digging into the batters' box.

The infielders moved up on the grass, giggling, and pitcher looked as uncomfortable as anyone else would have felt.

But to 83-year-old Jim Eriotes, it was serious business.

Eriotes led off Tuesday's game for the Canaries against the St. Joe (Mo.) Blacksnakes and took four big swings — even fouling a pitch off — before striking out.

The at-bat made Eriotes the oldest man to ever play professional baseball. It was his only at-bat in the game.

The record didn't mean much to the Chicago native and former minor leaguer.

"I don't give a damn about that stuff," he said, bothered by his failure to reach base. "If I got a couple more at-bats, I'd get a hit. Easy."

Hot diggity!

He wasn't kidding.

Eriotes said he had hit pitches thrown harder than the 83-mph fastball he whiffed against Blacksnakes starter Jesen Merle.

He has appeared on the "Today" show and said he has hit pitches near 100 mph — although they were hurled by a pitching machine.

He did admit that stepping into the box with a professional on the mound is a different story.

"He wasn't throwing that hard," he said. "I fouled one off. You can be the best hitter in the world and you might not get a hit if you only get one chance. But it was a great opportunity. It was cool."

Amen to that!

Spectators Derek Johnson, 27, already had bought his ticket for the game before knowing about Eriotes. But he said he made sure to arrive on time after hearing about the 83-year-old.

"I could not believe he actually got a piece of one. That's better than I could do," he said.

But Johnson's friend Dean Faynor thought the gimmick was excessive.

"I don't know, man, a real game? That's kind of bush," he said.

Former major leaguer Chad Hermansen made sure the Canaries won.
Ralph Santana singled and stole second after Eriotes' at-bat, and Hermansen quickly followed with a two-run homer. He later added a double and another homer as the Canaries defeated the Blacksnakes, 5-3.

So that's what happened to Chad Hermansen.

Hermansen got a good laugh out of his new, and now former, teammate.
"We didn't really know what to expect until we saw him hanging out in the dugout," Hermansen said. "As long as it didn't affect the game, I guess."

But don't expect to see Eriotes in any senior leagues. He's only interested in facing the best.

"Guys my age, it's no challenge," he said. "They're throwing like, what, 40, 50 mph? I'd rather hit pitches that are 90 mph and feel good about myself. If I could just get four at-bats in the majors, I could get a hit."

Amen to all that! Whoever is facing the Phillies' and their pathetic pitching this weekend should sign Mr. Reiotes.

Garcelle Beauvais is underrated. (The Last)

From the pages of The King Abdullah Gazette:



I do believe that is the finest use of sweater-like material I have seen in a long, long time.


Wow. A corset. Who knew?







About Me

First of all, the word is SEX, not GENDER. If you are ever tempted to use the word GENDER, don't. The word is SEX! SEX! SEX! SEX! For example: "My sex is male." is correct. "My gender is male." means nothing. Look it up. What kind of sick neo-Puritan nonsense is this? Idiot left-fascists, get your blood-soaked paws off the English language. Hence I am choosing "male" under protest.
