BarbaWire, March 1


Charlie Takes the Crazy To Twitter

Holt Halts Watson's Domination
Leave it to a Democrat to save us from a super-computer takeover. On Monday, Congressman Rush Holt of New Jersey conquered Watson, the IBM computer that is planning world domination one Jeopardy! game at a time. It helps that Holt is a former rocket scientist and five-time Jeopardy! champ. I wonder who will play him in the movie of the movie about humans overcoming their enemies? Tom Hanks? Jeff Goldblum?

Hatin' From the Grave
We are living in such politically charged times that some people are even carrying it to the afterlife. There is a new “trend” – Salon.com says there has been at least six, which makes it a “trend” story – where the deceased are asking that their obits call for mourners to, in lieu of flowers, donate money to whoever runs against Barack Obama. In the case of one particular dead Texan, “please make a donation to ANYONE running against Barack Hussein Obama, or the American Cancer Society.” This could backfire in so many awesome ways.

Afternoons in the Park
Grant Storms, a former Christian pastor that now does lawn work, was arrested last week for doing some “weed whacking” in his van in a park in Metairie, La. In a press conference on Tuesday to declare his innocence, because local reports said he was not only hmm hmm-ing but exposing himself to children. In the video embedded in this story, Storms said he merely had his pants unzipped and his hands in his chonies. He didn’t want to elaborate on what he was doing in there. (Because there are so many options) Oh, he also took this opportunity to apologize for his very vocal protests – the reason this dude is of note – of the gay-themed Southern Decadence festival. Much like the
tranny-loving congressman, I am guessing there is more to this story. Hmm. More.
So, Storms says he was not yanking his own chain, but admits to having his hands down his pants. This reminds me of my cousin Gilly screaming at my cousin Gilbert (yeah, my family has like four Gilberts) in the bathroom, “If you jiggle it more than three times, you’re playing with it!”
