Why Does Minnesota Hate Texas?

Texas students' photos altered in yearbooks - USATODAY.com: "MCKINNEY, Texas (AP) — School officials say they are appalled by altered photos — including heads on different bodies — in hundreds of McKinney High School yearbooks delivered this week.

Besides the head and body switching, some necks were stretched, one girl's arm was missing, and another girl's head was placed on what appeared to be a nude body, with the chest blurred.

A spokeswoman for Minnesota-based Lifetouch National School Studios Inc. said the alterations were 'an unfortunate lapse in judgment' by an employee but didn't believe it was malicious."

Hey, MN put Jesse Ventura on the national stage. Even the Boa is less annoying than Shrub, but not by much.

If annoying is the worst word, or phrase, you can come up with to apply to The Shrub, then you haven't been paying attention. War criminal is another than comes to mind.

And that will be it for my take on politics.

If you think Annoying is the extent of my take on Shrub, you haven't been paying attention. But on occasion I temper my language.

Sounds like a Stilwell/Crider war in the making. Cowpies vs. snowballs. This ought to be great.

Todd Mason is a pseudonym for Crider? I had no idea. Talk about not paying attention.

Howdy, Cap'n.

Such a libel of Bill. But I do lower the tone around here and elsewhere often enough. Nonetheless, not paying attention to me is hardly a sin...until you try to suggest that I've been particularly kind to the Criminally Plutocratic Fratboy Puppet in Chief. Though if you suggest no one's been stern enough yet, I agree.

I expect Crider to defend to the death all of the people who read his blog, including Todd.

You got it, Cap'n.
