While You Were “Working” (August 8th, 2008)

Here’s some stuff that happened while you were “working”:
- War! Here’s a primer: Russia doesn’t really care about South Ossetia or Abkhazia and is only interested in gaining control of a natural gas pipeline that runs through Georgia. And it’s Georgia the country, not that state.
- John Edwards finally admitted to having an affair, giving his colleagues a chance to act morally superior, and giving the news media a chance to record his colleagues acting morally superior so when the time comes and they too are caught being human they can have their hypocritical BS shoved up their high-and-mighty asses.
- The Montauk Monster is really and truely fake. Why does every decomposing rat-dog hybrid I love get taken away from me?
- Just a reminder: the Large Hadron Collidor is due to power up in a few hours for its first test-run, which means WE’RE ALL GONNA DIE!!!111! Also: no work on Monday! See, it’s not all bad.
