The New York Post ran a picture of Elena Kagan suggesting she was a lesbian because she played softball.
Eric Brynes just walked away from Major League Baseball to play softball for the Dutch Goose (a Northern California bar) team. Guess that means HE might be a lesbian?

California Republican gubernatorial candidate Meg Whitman’s latest television ad says “I strongly oppose Barbara Boxer and I am working hard to defeat her.” Wow. Maybe if Meg had voted more often she might remember that potential Governors run against other potential Governors in November, not Senators.

Everything is warm and fuzzy now with Britain’s new coalition government, where Conservative David Cameron has appointed Liberal Democrat Nick Clegg as “Deputy Prime Minister.” Wait until Clegg realizes that new title means almost as much responsibility as being U.S. vice president.

Donovan McNabb, in an interview with a Philadelphia sports radio station after being traded to Washington, that “more than anything,” he apologized to Eagles fans for not bringing them a Super Bowl championship.
Well, that shouldn’t be as much of a problem this year, as for Redskins’ fans in the era of Dan Snyder, the first question would be “what’s a Super Bowl?”

After scoring four runs in three games against the San Diego Padres, the San Francisco Giants beat Houston tonight 8-2.
–
Proving one good way to at least temporarily get out of a team-wide hitting slump? Play the Houston Astros.

One of my longest term friends in the travel industry, Suzanne Horning, forwarded this anti-terrorism idea to me. Author unknown.
A solution to all the controversy over full-body scanners at the airports. Have a booth passengers step into that doesn’t X-ray anyone, but simply detonates any explosive devices.
It would be a win-win for everyone, and there would be none of this crap about racial profiling and this method would eliminate a long and expensive trial. Justice would be quick and swift. Case closed!
And an added benefit, for passengers in the airport terminal who hear a muffled explosion, there could be one more spot open on the standby list.
