I.Q. Holds Steady...
Through his inspiring use of the monosyllable "uh", and a focused rollback of personal rights, GW has made us all feel a whole lot safer from the perils of "ax of terruh", as well as helping stave off the insanity of "nuke-ular conflict".

Just remember: If you demand the rights accorded you by the Constitution, "the terrorists have already won..."
JUST IN...

In an effort to upstage dad, Bush proclaims taxes will be raised "over his dead body" (Real Audio, 6k). Click Here for a refresher of dad's bald-faced lie (Real Audio, 6k).

Microsoft, Teletubbies In Heated Court Battle

You may or may not have noticed the uncanny similarity between the new Windows XP desktop and Teletubby Land, but Tinky Winky and Po sure did. The ensuing legal tangle is adding to the financial woes of the beleagered software giant. Especially irksome to the Redmond-based monopoly is the fact that although the DOJ may take bribes, Teletubbies have little use for cash. The proposed out-of-court settlement includes

adding Tinky Winky icons to the default Windows desktop, incorporating miscellaneous

giggling sounds into the OS, and removal of the MSN logo from the Teletubbies tummies. When asked to comment, all the Teletubbies' spokesperson had to say was "Uh-oh" and "la-la".

The Mystery of Bin-Laden's Vault

In his tireless effort to solve the mystery of Al Capone's Vault, Geraldo Rivera joins Fox News (now there's an oxymoron) and journeys to Afghanistan, convinced that if he just digs deep enough, eventually he'll end up beneath Lake Michigan, surrounded by cases of Canadian Whiskey and the stashed millions of the infamous Chicago mob leader.

As of this writing, all he's managed to find is a goofy hat, a sullied reputation, and a role in the upcoming re-make of "Fiddler on the Roof". After two weeks of not shaving or washing his hair to maximize the impression that he's risking his life to bring us "news from the front", the daring "war correspondent" is picked up by U.S. Special Forces, who mistake him for an al-Quaeda fighter. No word yet on his release.

Losing Face

This was inevitable, according to most experts in cosmetic surgery. Shown here for the first time on the web is an out-take from the video "Ghosts", starring the radically re-designed megastar and Elfin King, Michael Jackson.

In a strange move, the producers have left the tragic prosthetic collapse intact in the video, presumably to avoid a publicity whirlwind by creating the illusion that it's nothing more than sophisticated special effects.
