Back before the 2003 invasion of Iraq, there was circumstantial evidence that would lead some to think Iraq still had biological and/or chemical weapons. Prior use of WMD’s, Hussein’s brutality, the reluctance to allow U.N. weapons inspectors, certain audio/video clips, and the like. Of course, we found out Iraq simply did not have this weapon capability.

So why was Iraq so reticent to allow weapons inspectors for so long?

Because of Iran. Before Saddam Hussein was executed, he revealed that he wanted to maintain an illusion of strength to blunt Iran’s power. For him, this was the real enemy. He apparently did not feel a U.S. invasion was probable…until it was too late.

Saddam also said he was not an ally of bin Laden. Considering the secularity of Hussein’s government, I’d be very surprised if that wasn’t true. (It should be noted that in many circles, the logic “Hussein is an evil Arab and bin Laden is an evil Arab, so they must be allies” prevailed.)

So. I have to take back what I said about the Mets being better than the Marlins. They’re equally mediocre. Although, the Mets have a four time larger payroll than the Fish, so someone’s not getting their bang for the buck.

I wonder if you actually have to be sick to get those free antibiotics.

Print this out and hang it on your refrigerator. And you put the magnet on the emotion you feel like that day.

: Michael Jackson will be remembered as a great singer and an oddball. In his defense, this is not unusual. In fact, there may be some sort of correlation which can be proved scientifically.

: Some of us will remember MJ fondly. I will remember him fondling. As children run out of Neverland shouting “I’m free, I’m free!”, there’s one thing about Michael Jackson’s passing that will always stick with me. It must have been a real thriller trying to keep him alive in the hospital.

As a side note, if you’re not white now, don’t become white. Trust me, it’s not that healthy.

: Uh. I didn’t listen to his music. But that moonwalk thing was cool. Wish I could do that.

All the cool kids hang out in the Scohol Zone. (It was eventually corrected.)

Lynx Air is a regional airline servicing the Bahamas from Fort Lauderdale-Hollywood International Airport (FLL). Recently, they announced they would be moving from the main airport to a private terminal.

“The move to the Sheltair terminal will offer our customers more check-in space and less crowded conditions”, according to Lynx’s reservations manager.

Conveniently left unmentioned was that Lynx owed FLL $33,000, and was evicted by the Broward County Commission.

Some kid asks me why they don’t use A: or B: for hard drives.

I have 3,071 rollover minutes if anyone wants to use them.

We can graciously assume there was originally code in the “if” portion, and the programmer that deleted it was too lazy/harried to make it look normal.

Or it was a certain former employee whose name shall not be revealed.
