What is going on at The Current?
Okay, I sometimes listen to CBC radio one, and I’m not sure why, but this morning The Current is going for broke.
First of all, they just ran a piece using two words I hope I never have to hear in a doctor’s office: fecal therapy.
Now they’re onto pornography.
Working on the theory that they’re trying to increase their listenership, rather than drive it to the nearest toilet where they can throw up, here is a link to The Current’s website here.
Rotten claw of decomposing PM reaches from the grave to rend ample flesh from current holder of the office

I demand an inquiry! And brains!
Actually, it’s a bit more complicated than that, but it seems that the Evil Dr. Chin is back, baby.
He’s back, and like a political zombie, his nasty juju is engulfing the current “conservative” PM. It’s especially ironic that the man who was so hated by the Canadian public, and who arguably killed the old Progressive Conservative party, is now the source of the attack on the new “conservative” party, which is really just the old Reform party with the few surviving Progressive Conservatives right wing enough to join the Reformers.
At any rate, zombie bites are contagious and it seems that some in the PMO have had their bums seriously nibbled.
Having trouble figuring this murky, undead political scandal out? You’re not alone.
Mulroney calls for public inquiry | Chretien should explain Mulroney payout, minister says
And somewhere in shadows, the dark figure of Count Chretien cheekily says to the media, “you vill look into vy we gave Mulroney the $2.1 million. Blah, blah!”
Professor Quippy: Oh, you’re such a tase
So, you’ve got a big day of activism planned, and you’re pretty sure it could mean an up-close and intimate encounter with the business end of a taser. So, how do you prevent yourself from getting a brutal case of taser burn and doing the electric two-step?
Well, a tiny bit of body armor might help. And while you’re at it, how about a nice layer of tin foil underneath the kevlar? Or even better, put on a shark suit or pair of piezoelectric pants (though the latte would only work if the officer hit you below the belt.)
More ideas are available at The Last Word, where the New Scientist asks the question, and the readers answer. Definitely check out the comments!

The Six-Million Dollar Pleasure Borg

Julie: Happy Ending Pleasure Borg
A service unit barely intact (after her encounter with a rogue Penetrator 15000).
We can rebuild her.
We have the technology. We can make her better than she was. Better…stronger…faster…
We can’t do much about the crying jags though.
