Die-in

Did you hear about the "Die-in" at Ohio University? A bunch of "students" lay down to simulate the corpses of all the people we've "killed" in Iraq. How dramatic.

Hard to think of a response better than this one written by a fellow student who happens to be in a "study abroad" program.
It's a shame that I'm here in Iraq with the Marines right now and not back at Ohio University completing my senior year and joining in blissful ignorance with the enlightened, war-seasoned protesters who participated in the recent "die-in" at College Gate. It would appear that all the action is back home, but why don't we make sure? That's right, this is an open invitation for you to cut your hair, take a shower, get in shape and come on over! If Michael Moore can shave and lose enough weight to fit into a pair of camouflage utilities, then he can come too!

Stupider than Dirt

That's the only way to describe certain members of the California Assembly. I'll let another blogger provide the details.
So in order to be on the list of "safe" guns, a gun has to have a function that makes a microscopic stamp on every shell casing of every bullet that is fired that would include info about the gun - make, model & serial number. An interesting note here is that no gun in the world does that. There's not even a working prototype of how it could be done. In fact, no one is really sure if there's even a way to do it short of redesigning every gun from the ground up.
If you live in California, or perhaps even if you don't, you may want to contact the morons.
