Why is this person still writing Daily Cal reviews? Does anyone actually read Tag's reviews before they're printed, or do they just deliver the unprinted reviews, unseen by any normal, sane human being, directly to the printers?

Israel's war against terrorism is our war as well. 80 people were injured and 7 died after the latest Palestinian terrorist bombing of a cafeteria at Hebrew University in Jerusalem. Three were Americans.

Nothing will ever change the minds of terrorists- no peace process, or handshake, or UN council will ever convince Hamas that killing innocent people, especially students at a Jerusalem University, is evil. These terror tactics, supported by our "friends" in the middle east like the Saudi Arabian government and Saddam Houssein, are going to continue until we step in and take some seriously drastic action. If that means we have to level an apartment complex to get the people at the top of Hamas, so be it. This has to stop, immediately.

In South side Chicago, two men who were involved in a van crash that injured three were beaten to death by the mob that witnessed the accident. I find this to be rather shocking- a group of bystanders actually beat to death the two men in the van, seeking some sort of radical vengeance for the people hit. I'd like to think that this doesn't happen often, that this was some sort of fluke and that people are generally good. But it's hard to have faith in civilized society when we keep having "lapses" in humanity like this.

It goes to show that all the laws and social norms can't hold up against human nature when push comes to shove.

In evil politician news, James Trafficant was on the Imus show, where he let loose a comment to the effect of, "The IRS can go fuck themselves". As this guy gets closer and closer to sentencing, he seems to get more and more bizarre. Like Condit, Trafficant seems to be getting desperate and frustrated with his situation- one which he completely brought upon himself.

Ha-ha! Morning exercise can make you ill! Actually, I don't really buy this study, and you're still probably far better off doing it in the morning than not doing it at all. But I like that it plays right into the old saying, "Diet, Exercise, Die Anyways."
