Another YouTube video parody, this one taking on the prison interview scene from Silence of the Lambs. Keep an eye out for me at the beginning as I stalk down the hallway muttering like a crazy person. More fame, mama, more fame.

Here's to the YouTube revolution. Today's selection is a parody of the meeting-with-the-Bobs scene from Office Space, co-starring me.

A lot of people have been worried about Iran lately, particularly the whole dropping an atomic bomb on Israel possibility. Michael Ledeen at the Corner, however, informs us that he regime has started to go soft in unexpected ways. Why, it's no longer recommended that virtue enforcers slash off the lips of women caught wearing too much lipstick! At this rate, the Black Tulip will be opening a location in Tehran by the end of the year.

A perfect storm of sloth, soreness and sunburn kept me from attending this weekend's Save Darfur rally on the Mall, but fortunately my good friend Isaac got a few shots of the assembled masses. His main observation: lots and lots of kids, of the high school variety. Most seem to have been bused in from an array of East Coast cities, with an emphasis on NYC.

The usual parade of activists, strivers and malcontents that regularly inhabit the corner of 17th and K Streets were joined this afternoon by Falun Gong pamphleteers and, in an intersting twist, costumed re-enactors pantomiming an organ harvesting by the Chinese government:
They seem to have plentiful funds for printing and demonstrating, which helps them makes them a pretty persuasive case. Lucky for them they aren't trying to persuade anyone to vote for or against a candidate for public office in the United States.
UPDATE: Drudge links to a story claiming that President Hu Jintao tried to convince President Bush to endorse the Chinese government's label of the Falun Gong as "an evil cult" which should be banned. I can't imagine how he could think he would get a sitting American president to single out a particular religious sect for government scorn, oppression and violence. Unthinkable.

I used to be very happy living in the Virginia suburbs of Washington, DC. Now, however, thanks to the Washington Post, I am terrified. Today's weekend section has an article on the scourge of coyotes in exclusive communities, with the classic 50s sci-fi ivasion title "Among Us." Yes, if you move to the exurbs which, until a few years ago were forest, you just might encounter some wildlife. Watch out especially for the creepy, beady-eyed file-photo close-up.

Not wanting to break the sexually suggestive / body parts related theme of the last few posts, here's a carefully reasoned analysis from Basketbawful (via Cruel) of the Great Gatorade Conspiracy.

A commenter on Flickr alerted me to an interesting post-script to one of the signs at Monday's immigration rally. Here's the picture as I posted it:
But what's that at the bottom?
Yikes - it's a nativist's worst nightmare. Not only are they taking your jobs, they're screwing your women as well! Something must be done immediately. Thanks to sdjerabek for noticing.
