OMFG, Socialite's Life has posted pictures of what gorgeous celebs will look like in their 40's and up. Click here for Jessica Simpson, I think envy played a big part in this..... Solution: Marry her now, use her, gaze at her, and then dump the bitch when she starts to break down.

GO HERE and then act..... Congress wants to take over the web.

Mudville links to a hell of a speech UNREPORTED by MSM, naturally. Things we didn't know include: NATO is involved in Iraq; NATO has trained literally hundreds of Iraqi police; there is an NCO Academy; "The most impressive thing about the Iraqi units is how tenacious they have become, notwithstanding early reports that they would cut and run."; it's no longer sure death to travel from Baghdad to the airport; and lots more. Good stuff. I particularly loved this one regarding Inshallah Marksmanship used by Iraqis before US:

Iraqi soldiers in combat would hold the weapon over their head, shoot wildly until the magazine was empty, and “inshallah -- meaning if God wills it -- you will hit something.”

"Under NATO's auspices, the Iraqi military academy is open with entirely Iraqi instructors. It might have been opened much earlier with foreign instructors, but the Coalition felt that it was important to make it an Iraqi endeavor. General Patraeus noted later that he was very unhappy that this achievement got essentially no coverage in the media given its importance to success in Iraq."

Maxed out Mama, has a bunch of links to violence in Canada; would seem like fiction but it ain't.
