nine nine oh five

While browsing google's news site.............this just in

High stress levels in women can reduce the risk of breast cancer by 40%? Shit, think of all the women I've saved. I, for one, will continue to do my part in keeping female stress levels high. I'm all about being a huwomanitarian.

Chinese eatery sold donkey in tiger urine

SHANGHAI, China --A restaurant in northeastern China that advertised illegal tiger meat dishes was found instead to be selling donkey flesh -- marinated in tiger urine, a newspaper reported Thursday.

The sale of tiger parts is illegal in China and officers shut down the restaurant, only to be told by owner, Ma Shikun, that the meat was actually that of donkeys, flavored with tiger urine to give the dish a "special" tang, the newspaper said.

The report didn't say how the urine was obtained.

How it was obtained? Damn carefully I'm thinkin'. Think of the size of the cup for a tiger urine specimin.

I think that Ma Shikun dude used to work at Chick Fil A.

Piss on it, it tastes like chicken anyway.

Yasser Arafat died poisoning of or AIDS. Huh? What the fuck is that supposed to mean? Either way he was fucked though, huh?

Here's todays question on CNN's site....
Should a "hurricane czar" be named to take over the Hurricane Katrina recovery effort?

You gotta be kiddin' me. Fuck, I want that job. You get every winter off, plus being a czar just appeals to me. Check the radar, decide whether I'm going to work today or not. As long as everything is calm off the coast of Africa you know you can probably take a couple of weeks off.
And the business card would be so cool.

Potentate is a another title I'd like to have. Just has a nice ring to it. An air of supreme authority. I love being in charge and answering only to myself.

And I like magnate, like that one too.

And baron, oh, and mogul, I always thought it would be cool to be named Baron Mogul.

And then there is tycoon, that's a good one. Hey, instead of czar how bout...........

Typhoon Tycoon

Huh?

This tiger tastes like piss and I can't find my ass with a fork.
