Teen arrested for 'blasphemous T-shirt' -- This story comes to us from Australia.

"A GOLD Coast teenager who wore a T-shirt by English extreme metal band Cradle of Filth that reads 'Jesus is a c**t' has been charged with offensive behaviour. Above the offensive slogan a nun is depicted masturbating. A 16-year-old was arrested on Monday for wearing the shirt and was charged with offensive behaviour under the Summary Offences Act 2005 for public nuisance. Senior Sergeant Arron Ottaway said the teen was walking along Hollywell Road, in Biggera Waters, when a officer saw him [sic]. Police conducted inquiries at Australia Fair, where the teen said he bought the shirt, to find any shops selling it. The Reverend Matt Hunt of the Helensvale Baptist Church said it was sad people spoke about the Lord in such a way. 'It's fairly common language these days to express sadness, anger or hurt,' he said. 'It's a degrading word to use and Jesus is anything but that. It's like calling white black.' Mr Hunt said using the Lord's name in vain was a serious sin. 'When someone comes to the point of saying Jesus is the devil or Jesus is "expletive", the Bible does say be very careful because you're on thin ice.' Gold Coast lawyer Bill Potts said the arrest highlighted Australia's need for a Bill of Rights."

*** Now, I'm not saying the teenager should or should not have been wearing such an intriguing and potentially offensive t-shirt, but I am just saying that in addition to a Bill of Rights, Australia may need to provide racial awareness training for the dear Reverend Matt Hunt of the Helensvale Baptist Church. Did you catch it? I'll re-quote it: "It's like calling white black." Calling Jesus a c**t, according to the Reverend, is like calling "white black." Maybe I'm misreading the good Reverend's comment, but I was more offended by his words than the teen's t-shirt. *** ashley

Woman sues Victoria's Secret claiming thong injury

LOS ANGELES (Reuters) - A woman who says she was hurt by her thong panties when a metal clip flew off and hit her in the eye has sued Victoria's Secret, saying in a TV interview on Thursday that the injury caused her "excruciating pain." Macrida Patterson, a 52-year-old Los Angeles traffic officer, told NBC's "Today" show that she suffered cuts to her cornea from the small piece of metal that had been used to secure a rhinestone heart onto the blue thong. "I was putting on my underwear from Victoria's Secret and the metal popped in my eye. It happened really quickly. I was in excruciating pain. I screamed. That's what happened," Patterson told NBC.

Reasons Why Your Retired Derby-Winning Stallion Isn't Siring.
BY MARCO KAYE
- - - -
Potential mare shampooed with Herbal Essences instead of Mane 'n Tail.

Lack of selectively lit barns with low-priced drinks leading to spontaneous neighs and whinnies in a herd situation.

Older, experienced mare turned out to be a cougar.

Stallion wants to use a proper riding crop during intercourse, while mare prefers a dressage whip.

Breeding shed not candlelit or properly scented.

Spooked from piñata incident.

Stud fee makes him feel cheap and used.

Mare's tail is giving mixed messages.

Monetary stress due to betting on horses with cool names.

Just realized all horses have teeth like that.

He's fallen in love with the barn cat.

Thank you McSweeney's Internet Tendency

I woke up this morning to the most snow I have seen in Cincinnati in a year, and there was hardly a peep of talk about it being on its way on any of the local news channels. Seems strange after several months of them putting the fear of God into our community that Armageddon was upon us, time after time, only for the storm to 'fizzle out' or 'track south'. This city goes crazy when the 'White Death' is imminent. The problem is do we every really know when it is coming?

While Tom Brady is getting all the super model girlfriends and the Stetson ads and Peyton Manning is doing every other commerical on television, our local quarterback is doing this? I think Carson Palmer is great and he helped lead my fantasy football team to a championship this season, but I'm just saying: What is he thinking with this? At least he could promote the world's best hot dogs.

The best show on television for my money is "Friday Night Lights". Of course, as is typical, the execs at the big networks only worry about ratings and not the quality of the television they produce. I give NBC credit for giving this show a chance in the first place. I can only hope they find a place for it, if not on their main network then possibly one of their other networks like Bravo. I also heard ESPN is considering taking a chance on this show. Anyway, go here to sign a petition to help NBC know that people care about this wonderful back drop of American life and culture, and that it shouldn't be axed for another reality show.

Earlier this week we celebrated National Pancake Day and my girlfriend made some pretty yummy pancakes for dinner.

Now I'm just saying... even if her pancakes weren't so hot I don't think I would have reacted like this moron: http://www.news9.com/global/story.asp?s=7861191
