Quote of the Day - Island Naming
David Amulet always has great satirical writing over at his blog, so its no surprise that I’ve snagged today’s Quote of the Day from one of his posts. Here’s the setup: a new island has formed in the South Pacific and there’s some speculation about what to name it. After giving us some [...]

Quote of the Day - NAMBLA Blows
Today’s QOTD comes to us courtesy of The Omnipotent Poobah Speaks.
“You get a few greedheads, psychotic killers, and NAMBLA members and they ruin it for the rest of us.”
-Omnipotent Poobah in Laying Down the Law
I don’t know if its possible to sum up the world’s problems in fewer words. Thank you Poobah, for so [...]

Looking Back - “Left in the Lurch“ (9/2/2005)
Not really a very funny post. I had been thinking about the coverage of Hurricane Katrina on the news, and was getting a little sick of how much the news was focusing on “inhuman behavior”. And the whole time showing throngs of black people looking suspiciously like [...]
I Hate Gas
From the title, you probably think I’m going to go on about my gastro-intestinal fortitude, but that’s not the case. I hate gasoline. The reason I hate gasoline? Nothing new I suppose. Just that the shit is getting more expensive than paparazzi photos of Britney Spears over-the-hill body.
Politics Schmolitics
I know I’ve written a few times that Gangstas & Hugs isn’t really politically driven. I may post a few thoughts here and there on politics in general, and especially ass munches like Bill O’Reilly and Pat Robertson, but that doesn’t mean I won’t write a little about other bloggers’ great political posts. Here are a few entries that cover issues I believe pretty strongly in, and they all explained them much better than I ever could.
Bill O’Reilly Gets Owned
It’s not exactly breaking news at this point, but if you haven’t seen Bill O’Reilly’s appearance on David Letterman, then you’ve missed a hell of an interview! I hate Bill O’Reilly as much as the next ’semi-intelligent and pretty-informed’ guy, but I could probably never be around the pompous blow hole without ripping his larynx out. So please enjoy, with me, this beautiful and ever so poignant segment I like to call “Letterman Rips O’Reilly a New One”:
Girl, Shake That Laffy Taffy
I’m sure everyone has gotten a chance to enjoy Mr. O’Reilly’s show, The O’Reilly Factor. Why it’s a factor of anything, I have no idea. You’ve probably also heard about his sexual harassment law-suit he got slapped with. Personally I hope its the first in a long line of shit that should be headed this [...]
Mmm…mmm…mmm… Tossin’ Salad
Using the “Tossed Salad” metaphor IS probably more appropriate than the “Melting Pot” metaphor. Immigration still doesn’t seem to be getting the attention it needs here in the US. I just got a chance to read the Richard D. Lamm speech about his “Plan to Destroy America“. For those of you who don’t know, Lamm [...]
