1. Watch this Japanese Burger King commercial and cry for happiness. Then eat like snake.
2. Read this article about constitutional scholar David Adler’s assertion that George W. Bush has arrogated to himself more powers than King George the III. I don’t know if he’s technically right (I’m not a constitutional scholar), but the fact that it’s gonna be a close call, and requires careful thought and perhaps arguing by other constitutional experts to tell us whether he’s right… ::shudder::. Just cry.
3. Portland’s mayor, police chief, and DA assert that garbage isn’t protected by any right of privacy. When the garbage does not belong to them. Read this article by journalists who rifle through these officials’ not-private garbage and publish the results. Note how said officials do not seem to stick by their original positions once this happens. Cry from irony. (can you do that? I think so).
4. Read this piece about how women in Al Qaida are demanding their right to be terrorists along with the men — and demanding recognition for suicide bombings already carried out by female Al Qaida members — and cry from the multiple interlocking layers of complicated wrongness.
