Good joke: Man Arrested at JFK Airport
This is pretty good, my Mom sent it to me. (Yeah, this is how my Mom feels about GWB.)

A public school teacher was arrested today at
John F. Kennedy International Airport as he
attempted to board a flight while in possession
of a ruler, a protractor, a set square, a slide rule
and a calculator.

At a morning press conference, Attorney General
Alberto González said he believes the man is a member
of the notorious Al-gebra movement. He did not identify
the man, who has been charged by the FBI with carrying
weapons of math instruction.

"Al-gebra is a problem for us," Gonzales said. "They desire
solutions by means and extremes, and sometimes go off
on tangents in search of absolute values. They use secret
code names like 'x' and 'y' and refer to themselves as
'unknowns', but we have determined they belong to
a common denominator of the axis of medieval with
coordinates in every country.

As the Greek philanderer, Isosceles used to say, "There are
three sides to every triangle."

When asked to comment on the arrest, President Bush said:
--"If God had wanted us to have better weapons of math
instruction, he would have given us more fingers and toes."
White House aides told reporters they could not recall
a more intelligent or profound statement by the president...


Let's see, Bush's popularity rating in Massachusetts is about 25%. Yeah, that fits.

3. Nice
What I don't understand is whether at this point the 25% are just being nice and not wanting to hurt his feelings. He has to know he's unpopular when some conservatives suddenly say they don't like him because he's liberal.

5. What's wrong with the polar bear?
And there is a diarist who is promising a very funny pic of the senator with some kind of mascot. So, you know, you might end up preferring the polar bear.

this one is just, ahm, without the proper background context. It is an oddly framed pic.

It's also cute as hell. I like this pic, but it is still a bit, ahm, odd.
