More links for all of us to feast upon.



Sec. Gates Says Guantanamo a "Taint" On U.S. Reputation - RTT News

You have opened a Pandora's box of sophomoric political references, my friend.


COP NAILS 'RAPIST' - NY Post

Now that's fitting justice! Also, since when does the word rapist warrant quotemarks? Thanks, Post.


Google news search for "butts"

I don't know why I bothered searching under this term, but I was shocked by the number of dreadful puns in these headlines, incorporating the term for a used cigarette.

Puns in news headlines, unless it's the Post, always make me cringe. A few years back, the Pittsburgh Penguins had a bunch of players from the Czech Republic, spawning numerous headlines to the tune of "Czechmate" or "Czechs and Balances". It made me sad.
