If you have sex, your penis will fall off...

...and land in another dimension, where it will be eaten by dogs.

Family Guy takes on Silver Ring Thing, and it is a true thing of beauty.

FWIW, I was also subjected to an abstinence only mis-information program while I was in high school. One that, incidentally, violates the separation of church and state.

If there's one thing I despise, it's someone forcing their fucked-up, pseudo-Christianity down my throat.

...Congressman Rangel has just moved to reinstate the draft. Brilliant move, and here's why:
He's a black democrat whose argument is, "Why should poor people of color be forced into the army for economic reasons." In other words, we've already got a socio-economic draft in place as it is.

Now, Rep. Rangel has alread moved to reinstate the draft once, three years before. But you can bet he'll have more of a voice now that the Dems are in power.

So it's a brilliant tactical move, but the not so charitable part of myself is kinda glad that women aren't allowed in combat zones.

That will be all.
