For some reason, a lot of Swedish stuff has been happening around here lately. Kent’s recent album, a potential visit to Lund, Ingmar Bergman films, and several other Swedish occurences of late have prompted me to throw down the low down on the Scandinavian sensation.

US Gov’t Angry Over Saddam Underwear Pic

I’m pretty angry, too. When I woke up on this beautiful Friday morning, I told myself, “I sure hope I don’t see any disgusting old dictators in their underwear today.” Just my luck.

Like a shaven grizzly, Saddam Hussein busted onto the front page of The Sun and into my nightmares clad in just his underwear, a sign that even in captivity, he gets to do whatever the hell he wants all day.

Does anyone know if his trial is even still going on?

Shouldn’t he be dead or something by now?

Cop fires gun at moving car in school parking lot

I say there should be tougher rules regarding reckless police, and ridiculous penalties should be involved.
For example: this stupid cop should have to run around with an apple on his head while the kid fires a crossbow at him. If the apple falls off the cop’s head, he has to take one article of clothing off. If he becomes naked, he must go the office of the highest-elected official in the town or city, stand on his/her desk and sing “Rock You Like a Hurricane”

NASA: Pull Oxygen from Moon Dirt, Win $250,000

If you could get oxygen from freaking moon dirt, you’d save mankind forever, and NASA’s only going to chip in $250K for it? It’s probably worth something like $250 trillion. I think I’ll hang on to my technology, thanks.

Toddler rescued from toy vending machine

This is about the fifth time this has happened this year alone. How is this even possible? Don’t they have whirling blades in those chutes so you can’t stick your hand up in there and gank a prize?
