You had to be there.

You know what else I don't get? One of the lifeguards at the JCC had her hair dyed bright indigo. It looked fabulous, and I told her as much. But you'd think she must do a lot of swimming, and every time I dye my hair, the chlorine in the pool bleaches it to something ugly. So I wonder if she possibly dyed it today and just hasn't been swimming yet, or whether there is some secret way to not end up with shitty hair after swimming. Does anyone know?
On a more serious note, a 19-year-old Texan was sentenced to 40 years in prison for helping his 16-year-old girlfriend have an abortion. Did everyone else hear about this and just not say anything? WTF?

Oh, another MJ molestation case?
Can't the government find something new to distract the masses with to look away while Monkey-boy is doing something fucked-up to our civil liberties and the other nations of the world? I swear, it's like you roll three dice, where one is a celebrity name:
1 = Michael Jackson
2 = Britney Spears
3 = Paris Hilton
4 = Bob Barker
5 = Martha Stewart
6 = Jennifer Lopez
and the second is a scandal:
1 = is pregnant / got somebody pregnant
2 = is accused of child molestation / sexual harrassment
3 = is in a sex video
4 = is in / causes a financial crisis
5 = Roll both the name and scandal dice again. Both name die people had the scandal together
6 = roll second die twice. Apply both results to the person.
Finally, roll a third die to determine what happens when our eyes and minds are elsewhere:
1 = A constitutional amendment protecting our rights gets repealed
2 = A constitutional amendment removing our civil rights gets added
3 = The U.S. declares war on another country
4 = The U.S. "assists" another country with weaponry and training, which in about five years will be pointed to as a new "Terrorist group" threatening the U.S.
5 and 6 = Politicians' paychecks get fatter.
That's what this is really about, yanno.
It's all part of the conspiracy. Elvis, the aliens, and the DMV. They're all plotting to keep me and my sistahs down!
DAMN THE MAN!
SAVE THE EMPIRE!!!
Now roll me 3d6 and tell me the future.
