    The Dalai Lama Bloggas Good Deed of the Day!
     

    I have busy schedule today with cancerous children, giving blood, but I found a chance to do a good deed.  Happy, happy, happy!!!  Dalai Lama shares his love with you!  Helps scared, brittle old man walk across field of bumpy pebbles without breaking hip!  Hip hip happy!!!

    He even say Dalai Lama is good guy, and not some  "gook".  What this word "gook"?! 1337Z0l2Z???! I'm good cook! Make healthy lentil herb stew! Tasty happy!  

    *jolly insane chortling!*

    End all human suffering! Happy bye!

    The latest from our "soon to get a 'Dear John' letter... if he's lucky" Dept.
    I hate to break Haruhiko's heart, but it looks like our erstwhile former Senator from North Carolina may have a serious mistress / lovechild problem...

    The story went straight from the National Enquirer to a Beverley Hilton hotel guard to Fox News... because, obviously, Fox would find it "newsworthy".  Anything to get Obama out of the spotlight, I guess. 

    That said, as much as I dislike the source, I fully expect the allegation to be essentially correct. National Enquirer actually has a pretty good record when it comes to political affairs, and investigates with a bloodlust rarely seen in the mainstream media.  

    Considering how desperate John McCain's campaign has been lately, obviously any bad news for any Democrat is Barack Obama's fault, and clearly reflects on his morality... whatever that means.  (Sure, it's a nebulous argument, but for people who like to be disagreeable just for the hell of it, it's clearly good enough.

    Given that John Edwards' wife is currently fighting stage IV breast cancer, well... let's just say that John Edwards' timing just sucks. I mean, it's really low and disrespectful... almost like something John McCain would've done to one of his wives!

    Obama/Edwards, 2008-2008. RIP.

    The Spirit of Australia blows.
    Ever since ditching their adorably whiny, snarky koala mascot, Qantas has had a strong, longstanding connection to the slogan "The Spirit of Australia". ..

    So, it's understandable, perhaps that it might make someone a bit hesitant to fly Qantas when their plane, "Spirit of Australia" has about a 9' hole in its side, after having suffered explosive decompression for some unexplained reason.

    You'd almost think that someone was trying to send a message, and that the airline -- or Australia itself -- was being targeted, wouldn't you?!

    Now obviously, it's premature to say anything about what happened, other than the fact that Youtube has given us all unprecedented opportunity to see perhaps the happiest plane landing most of us will ever get the chance to see... with applause, even. 

    But all I can say is that if I'm flying in a plane, I don't want it to be "The Spirit of America", or "California Spirit", or "American Pride" or anything of the sort. How about a nice, boring name that wouldn't attract anyone trying to make a political statement. 

    My advice... name the planes like they were beloved household pets. Golden Retriever. Spot, etc... and if the terrorists want to blow up the planes, let 'em try. 

    "Those bastards blew up Fluffy!"

    Not only would the public get seriously pissed off at the terrorists, but the terrorists themselves would be mercilessly teased by all their friends on their choice of target. It's easy to brag about blowing up the World Trade Center, but if you blow up Flopsy or Muffin, you'll never hear the end of it.

    Not the kind of publicity that the bad guys want, really. 

    Meanwhile, I would just advise to Qantas... bring back the koala. Because given how scary explosive decompression and terrorist bombs can be, you'll want your passengers to be thinking of the cute more often.
