Hecklers suck

Okay, so I respect the right of campus group to protest at Lieberman’s speech. But you don’t yell out questions from the balcony while somebody is talking! And I hope all of these Right-to-Lifers and Anti-Capital Punishment Activists realize that Bush supports a “culture of death” just as much (if not more!) as any other politician.

Lieberman again.

The official Observer story on Lieberman’s visit is up.

Gross.

*PUKE* Okay, apparently these “Diva Starz Dolls” are supposed to be this year’s Furby. Whatever. Even though they’ve supposedly created “sporty,” “earthy,” and “tech-y” dolls, they’re still all about clothes (this Press Release actually calls them fashionistas) and hanging out at the “Diva Mall.” I just can’t believe that any professional marketing person could possibly bring themselves to write the headline: “Techno-Interaction Brings a Whole New Meaning to Gabbin’ With Sass-o-matic Looks and Fab-alicious Fun!” Seriously, you guys… Fab-alicious??? I swear, no kid of mine will ever play with this shit.

Dilemma.

It looks like Arnaz Battle is officially out for the rest of the season. I wonder how that’s gonna work next year. I mean, what if this LoVecchio kid gets really really good? That would suck for the both of them if it comes down to a choice for starter.

Lieberman.

Here’s another story about Lieberman’s visit to Notre Dame.

Snark.

Hahahahahaha… Inside Roger Clemens’s brain.

Also, water is wet.

Performance-enhancing drugs call into doubt integrity of the Olympics, according to report from commision chaired by Father Malloy. Wow. What hard hitting research. Not.

60%?!

ND had a 60% return on their endowment investment this year??? Good Lord. This article raises two big points for me: A) Where the hell does all this money go? Hey Monk, tell me again about that “financial crisis” you predict for the next few years? and B) We’re making all this money on venture capital???. That thought frightens the hell out of me (and probably every other alum in the IT industry).

Lieberman.

Wow! Joseph Lieberman spoke at ND today. I can’t wait to hear how it went…

Oh, no.

Why you should never, ever hide in big piles of leaves.
