Do all the candidates seem alike to you? Check this out: AOL/Time Warner (or whoever they are these days) put together this interactive tool to find your perfect presidential candidate. I was horrified to discover that I fit perfectly with Al Sharpton.

About Islamic law, of course.
On Yahoo News this afternoon, an admission from Colin Powell (naturally they make the black guy make the announcement) that Iraq may not have possessed weapons of mass destruction.
Powell acknowledged that the United States thought deposed leader Saddam Hussein had banned weapons but added, "We had questions that needed to be answered."What was it?" he asked. "One hundred tons, 500 tons or zero tons? Was it so many liters of anthrax, 10 times that amount or nothing?"
Maybe I'm in the wrong on this, ethically, but I think that if the proof was not quite so concrete, and they might have had nothing, we had no reason to invade and depose their leader on the pretext that he was preparing to use WMDs against the US.
I passed a girl on campus today who had combined two fashion things with terrible results: a super-tight t-shirt, and a padded bra.
OK, I dig that you A-cup ladies are a little unhappy about the lack of boobage, but if you're going to pad, wear a shirt that does not telescope that fact to the whole world. She looked like she was wearing a pair of maxi pads on her breasts.
I blame Gert for sending me an unending supply of virtual bubblewrap.
A biting review of Along Came Polly on CNN.com gives us this damning comparison:
Even "Zoolander," which Hamburg co-wrote and Stiller directed, had a fun, goofy energy -- and a notable lack of nauseating humor -- that made it endearing in a way "Along Came Polly" never is.
Oh. The other kind. Check out this guy and his readers, who are giving Hummers the finger.
My friend Kate pointed out this picture of a a baby elephant swimming with its truck sticking straight out in front of it. How cute. I don't think I've ever seen an elephant do that with its trunk.
Speaking of PETA and animal rights activists in general on Making Light, adamsj remarks:
Show me a cure for AIDS that requires grinding up live kittens and I'll personally turn the crank.
I can get behind that.
I've been frustrated by a desire to buy The Producers on DVD, and now I see why. Rather than allow those of us who love the original to enjoy it in that format, we're going to get a remake, first. Not that I dislike Matthew Brodderick and Nathan Lane -- I most likely will go see and enjoy the re-make -- but Gene Wilder and Zero Mostel were goddamned funny in the original, and I want it on DVD, dammit.
