"The Washington Times is not a newspaper, it's right-wing lobbyist propaganda paid for by a foreign government." Yeah-just like the NY Times is a newspaper paid for by a foreign government, in this case...the democratic party. I hope you were laughing when you wrote that one. Just when I begin to think that you are out of powder you must drop another hit of orange sunshine and start typing. AS, you are one silly kid.

Some respect, please, for frogs and pigs The people at PETA -- People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals -- often act like a tree full of monkeys (they'll take that as a compliment), but now there's a crusade at hand that every reasonable friend of the animals can join. If it's a crime to call a baseball club the "Warriors" and a football team the "Indians," the law ought not to allow insult to the noble beasts of field and forest by the appropriation of the names of 'gators, longhorns, frogs, wolves, chanticleers, razorbacks, wolverines, tigers, wildcats, cougars or even snakes and spiders. Officials of public schools in Western Maryland say several parents have already approached them about whether animal mascots should be retired as "offensive," though it is a fact that so far there have been no complaints from actual lions, tigers or wampus cats. washtimes.com

Try Raid Epidemiologists in central Kazakhstan's Karaganda region believe dangerous mutant spiders are emerging as a result of "global warming." The Cooler Heads Coalition in Washington, which doesn't buy into the global warming theory, intercepted an Interfax dispatch from the former Soviet republic reporting the spiders recently attacked eight persons, causing high fever, back pain and kidney disorders. "The spiders caught are different from the conventional ones in shape and color," the dispatch says. "The appearance of the mutants may be connected with global warming." Kazakhstan, which borders on the Caspian Sea, is in a position to be one of the 21st century's major sources of oil, on which it will depend for prosperity. Lion kings Speaking of emerging Jurassic Parks, if you thought President Bush and Democratic Senate Majority Leader Tom Daschle were rulers of Washington, think again. The Smithsonian reports that schoolteacher Debbie Brown hosted a group of youngsters for an overnight stay at the National Zoo, promising the children they would have no problem awaking in the morning. The zoo's lions, she explained, "start roaring around 6 a.m., muted at first from inside and then louder when the keepers let them out. Lions re-establish their territory by roaring." washtimes.com
