Three articles: A new kind of vibrator for lazy people
With this headline, how can you go wrong? "Lesbian waffles available in Russia "
and here's a demonstration of the graphic differences between journalistic practices overseas and back here: A subheadline of "This election is rigged and Bush will win no matter what."
The article, of course, is discussing the elctronic voting machines, how they are insecure, trivially easy to edit votes on, have no paper trail, and are made by companies with strong ties to the Bush administration - and how, in one test on Diebold voting machines, the machine reported "Bush" winning in a close race despite "Kerry" getting 100% of the votes in the test.
And then there's those things Diebold's CEO has done, like his interoffice memos promising that if his machines are used, Bush will win in Ohio in 2004, and his statement that any action is justified if it means Bush is re-elected.
But, hey, it didn't come from Fox News, so it couldn't possible be fair and balanced and thus true, right?

Dear Paul,
This is almost better than the Yoda question! I am curious as to why you want my opinion on this, but I will answer it anyway.
If being a monster were like being a bodybuilder, I think a werewolf would probably lose a competition like this. First of all, a vampire is a vampire on a daily (or should I say nightly) basis. He has daily goals that he pursues without stopping or giving up. He can't rest or survive without what he needs.
Werewolves are only werewolves when the moon is full, and, what's that? Once a month? Forget it! That's no way to be a monster! You have to stay at it everyday to be any good, right? Vampires know what this means.
And in a pose-down? Werewolves have way too much hair, but vampires would have terrible routines, since they wouldn't be able to practice in front of mirror.
Funny question!
