Hundreds or Thousands?

According to the Washington Post, there were hundreds of Tea Party activists protesting healthcare legislation at the Capitol yesterday. Or thousands. Depends what part of the same webpage you read. Bring on the screen shot:

The Wages of Gmail


Earlier today I received the following email message:

"I am woman. I have a blonde hair with golden shining. My eyes is black. I am not high. I have beautiful skin. My hair is long straight. I live in a big city. I work in education. I like to watch horror films. Representations in the performance pop stars on stage. I like animals. I like desert. If you talk about me I am beautiful cat. Most of all in men I value honesty. When I you noticed on the street. I right realized that must. Because I can be for you a excellent friend if you want. I'm hope that you answer me on my e-mail."

Unfortunately I'll have to pass, but if any of you blog readers is looking for a non-high woman with a pro-desert, anti-dishonesty agenda and golden shining blonde hair, just send me a message and I'll pass on her email address. Something tells me she may even know where to get cheap V1@gra online without a prescription. Friendship - maybe more!

59-0



Did someone say touchdown passes?

FOXBOROUGH, Massachusetts (Reuters) - Quarterback Tom Brady passed for five touchdowns in the second quarter as the New England Patriots crushed the winless Tennessee Titans 59-0 in the snow on Sunday.

Brady, who had a career-equaling best six touchdown passes for the game, connected twice with Randy Moss and Wes Welker and once with Kevin Faulk in the second quarter while building a 45-0 halftime lead.

Moss caught a third TD pass in the third quarter from Brady, who passed for 380 yards.

New England (4-2) also set team records for points in a game and total offense (619).

Tennessee dropped to 0-6. Last season, they posted the NFL's best regular season record of 13-3.

Hooray for Last Night

Sure they were behind almost the entire game. And maybe they fucked up a few plays they could have completed in their sleep in previous seasons. But they still won. And in an awesome come-from-behind five minutes of drama that is still giving me a semi.

Lesson: The Brady is back, bitches.


Also, let's not forget to also pay tribute to Wes Welker. He's also extremely hot. I mean, talented.
