Reggie Bush Bowl.

Jan 1, 2006.

This is not to be confused with the Jan 4 Rose Bowl, aka Heisman Bowl where the three finalists for the award are competing in. Why Jan 1? That is when the San Francisco 49ers and the Houston Texans, each with 2 wins, meet for the final game of the NFL season. Whoever loses will claim the title of the Worst Team 2005 and the number one draft pick, which is likely to be Reggie Bush.

So enjoy.

Dog-napping?

I don't get some of the stories CNN.com puts on its front page sometimes. Today there is a video story about survillance camera catching three teenager girls stealing puppies from a pet store. I found the owner's reaction especially amusing. She said, "I don't think it is shop-lifting. I consider it kidnapping."

No it's not. Kidnapping (definition): the unlawful act of captureing and carrying away a person against their will and holding them in false imprisonment. If you want to compare taking an animal to abducting a human, then don't mind me comparing to you selling an animal to human trafficking. And should we tack on the unlawful practices of eugenics (inbreeding) and imprisonment and public humiliation of those hidious doggy sweaters?

With all these talk about kidnapping and cameras, I wonder if someone at CNN is taking a subtle jab at the U.S.A.PATRIOT Act.
