Cops: Teens ended pregnancy with a baseball bat -- Remember, kids, legal and safe abortions are bad. That's why, if you do end up a pregnant teen, you should have your boyfriend whack you in the stomach with a baseball bat.

Meanwhile, House Republicans want to change party rules to ensure that DeLay retains his post if a Texas grand jury indicts him as it did with three of his political associates. See, kids? You can never be too big a hypocrite. :)

Also, should Canada indict Bush and charge him with war crimes? On one hand, I loathe him enough to root for the Canadians to do it. On the other hand, he is our President, like it or not, and if they indict him for war crimes, that reflects well on us ... or, you know, not.

EDIT: The United States laid down the gauntlet to Europe Wednesday by saying the responsibility for trimming the U.S. current account deficit cannot rest on the U.S. alone and other countries must help by boosting demand. -- "I screwed up, so you have to help me." *eye roll*

If we're going by Jewish tradition, we're at Plauge #8 out of 10.

-Changing of the Nile river into blood
-Plague of frogs
-Plague of gnats
-Plague of insects
-Plague upon the livestock of the Egyptians
-Plague of boils
-Plague of hail and fire
-Plague of locusts
-Plague of darkness
-Death of the firstborn

I doubt He's doing them in order, though - wouldn't the Mad Cow scare count as #5? :)

You know, you could say that we're at #9, if you figure that the lunar eclipse during the World Series counts as a plague of darkness. *eg*

Then again, I find that I'm personally against that "death of the firstborn" thing. Dude, I'm the firstborn child in my immediate family, and the firstborn grandchild on both sides of my family, so let's just skip over that last one. :)

It's literally worded as "death of the firstborn son," not "firstborn child." You still don't need to worry about your brother, as it was the firstborn of the Egyptians that were killed, not the Jews.
