In the wake of a recent, heavily publicized case involving a woman who was mauled by an alleged “Pit Bull Type Dog”; publicity I might add that fails to adequately explain why the woman entered the residence containing the dog, in the owner’s absence, in the first place; the cry has once again been raised […]

The damage control dweebs who frame the wordage spoken by media talking heads have been outdoing themselves with the bag of shit the recent earthquake in Japan has handed to the nuclear power plant industry.

Every day a new “study”. Yesterday I read a blog article celebrating the health benefits of coffee consumption.
