piggybacking the iraq invasion with 9-11 is grotesque, as is the naming of a chevron oil tanker after the US secretary of state.

About JT...
"Box-fresh in William Rast (his own label) jeans, bright white trainers, a checked shirt, and white Abercrombie & Fitch boxers - the band of which he reveals every time he stands up, needled by an awkward subject - he is certainly handsome and well-sculpted. And, sigh, yes, the 'Trousersnake' is pretty sexy. "
Okay, more on this 'Trousersnake" think, please.

You have to admit he's right about that issue.

I find it grotesque that scientists want to exhume the body of Farinelli.
Let him rest in peace.

At this point we're screwed. Even if we stop all combustion engines now, we're still looking at losing 30-40% of our land to the ocean, if not more. Best case scenario, we lesson the impact but that isn't enough to keep the ice caps from melting, the air from polluting further and mankind's over populating rape of the world. After reading the New York Times today the headlines have me scrambling for Prozac. With another tsunami in Indonesia and the Middle East and North Korea conflicts looking like a third World War, Global Warming is the nail in our coffin. We are a virus to this planet...
