That's the last time I call Yellow Cab.

They lost my call in the computer once, and afterwards it took them 20 minutes to send me the Part-Time Conspiracy Theorist who knew 20 different reasons the world was going to end in thirty years.

Whenever anyone takes Nostradamous seriously, I set the Bozo Bit on them.

If I recall correctly, the last time I caught a cab with one of these wackjobs driving, it was also a Yellow Cab. That guy was listening to Art Bell in the cab, and I told him to turn it off, and he did, and then proceeded to tell me about how a vial "this small" of Anthrax could wipe out the entire planet's population. That was before someone mailed out a bunch of anthrax and we found out how wimpy it really was.

Too much information.

Every so often, lately, I've been seeing articles on the Internet, written or linked by opinionated, but not quite "kookish" sources, that say the thing which it seems the American media has been suggesting for months but bending over backwards to avoid saying outright: that Islam is fucked. So how am I to respond to a controversial article like this? ( Read more about the frustrating act of considering what deserves to be taken seriously. )

Ground ostrich is very very thick. But, you know what? It does taste kind of beefy. Could use some salt, though.
