There is a conspiracy in the astronomy world. I have discovered that certain members of a vague and shadowy, secret planetary Priory of Sion-like société - whose real name I have not yet been able to extract from the data - have been for some years now using the code word "dinky" when referring to the admittedly diminutive Pluto. In fact today it is revealed that this conspiracy reaches to the highest governing body of the science, the International Astronomical Union which has, as we all know, strong ties to the Vatican. It is no wonder then that - after several years of this "dinky" propaganda - they have completed their coup. What now lies in store for the little rock is anybody's guess.

First off I don't get why this girl gets so much attention. She's cute, not bad as an actress, certainly an aimiable enough creature, but come on people! She's short, her hair flies around when she talks, and she still gets that same look on her face that she used on Friends. She's still a kind of Friends person almost playing off the Friends' scripts. She's kind of annoying in the same way that June Allyson was annoying. Or like Chris Evert is annoying. Hmmm...OK. Like a girl who is really nice and really not interesting is annoying. Every time I see her picture on some magazine I am stunned all over again. I can't keep up this level of emotional involvement with Jennifer Anniston. With Nicole Kidman, yes. With Laura Linney? Absolutely. But being involved with Anniston is like being involved with Demi Moore. I so deeply do not care about what is going on in the lives of these women that I feel the need to take a position on it. I imagine that some readers might take issue. If someone has any idea about why I should change, I want to hear it. Please let me know what I can do to start caring about what Jennifer Anniston is doing in her private life. Thank you. Aniston: Wedding Rumors Are "Insane" - Yahoo! News

OK, fellas, this is a joke, right? 500 EU troops in Kinshasa in the middle of a pre-election DRC gang war? Who's kidding whom? 500 Dutch and German (not the old Germans, the new ones) soldiers do the job of approximately 12.4 U.S. Marines. You'd need about 2500 Marines so...you do the math.Telegraph News EU troops fly into chaos of Kinshasa

Hussein's massive ethnic cleansings seem not to touch Western intellectuals though these same intellectuals were very concerned for the Serbian Croats
that were being systematically murdered by Milosevic. I've always wondered how the Left can square their two opposed positions, then I remembered, that kind of dilemma is ignored by the really smart people on the Left. They simply don't acknowledge it as any kind of intellectual dishonesty - which it certainly is. Logic and truth have has no place on the Left.

If this guy had been Cindy Sheehan's son, she would now be screaming that he had died "for nothing" at the hands of "freedom fighters" (ask the women of Afghanistan about the Taliban freedom fighters). That the evil Blair-Bush conspiracy killed him and that everything he did was a lie. She would point to the high casualty rate in his unit as proof - i.e., if anyone actually gets killed then the whole operation is a failure and a mistake.
