Burma's not full of black people like Darfur so I don't see your side eager to go help out the Burmese either What the fuck did this even mean?

More on Burma, from the German magazine Spiegel. This is fucking fascism, folks: From the New York Times:

*edit*

76, I'm pretty sure.

I am telling as many people as I can to boycott Chevron Oil, who is in dick deep with the junta in Burma. So please stop filling up at Chevron stations!

I really just said that for old times sake. Your dog does look like an Ewok.

What the hell is that thing?

*oops*

So I'm hanging out in the teacher workroom today, making copies of information on the English Civil War, when the nice school secretary wanders in. We began chatting about food, eating healthily, and about how we both like to indulge in biscuits and gravy from time to time when, out of nowhere, she begins babbling to me about how we are engaged in "spiritual warfare" at the school. I politely nod and smile, and escape, saying I need to get back to work. *insert title of thread here*

When Rudy is president, we can name apple pie "9/11 pie." Apple pie a la mode will be "9/11 pie with a side of Iraqi freedom."

I can't wait until Rudy is president and we can sing 9/11 carols around the 9/11 tree.

Man, Pat Boone would hate me. I'm a liberal atheist public school teacher and a member of the NEA. I didn't know it was illegal to mention God in the classroom! I should have been fired immediately for teaching about the Reformation!

I support a Wu Tang based curriculum in the public schools.

Brilliantly stated.

It's called being a public defender. Paid jack shit and given about three gajillion cases per week.

FYI, Mychal Bell's trial featured an all-white jury and all white witnesses. His public defender didn't call any witnesses or present any evidence.

Ugh, this crap is all the rage at the school where I teach right now. Some of my students found out that I like rap the other day and this one useless kid asked me if I liked "dat Soulja Boy." Also, I was teaching about Martin Luther's 95 Theses the other day and some kid said that Luther "got 95 problems but a pope ain't one." Just thought I'd share that. Kinda reminds me of when I introduce Teddy Roosevelt to my kids in class and as soon as I mention the Spanish American War and the Rough Riders I get a whole bunch of DMX crap. I've gotten that one before too. Usually because I make a joke about TR hanging out with DMX.
