These kids were among the cutest to visit Halloween night.

Halloween greetings from us to you. May your treats be many and tricks be few.

Because Gray Davis is against them.

From the Sacramento Bee:

WASHINGTON - Former Gov. Gray Davis said Friday that he opposes the ballot measures that Gov. Arnold Schwarzenegger is stumping for as part of his reform agenda . . .

We voted this buffoon Davis out of office because of his poor judgement and total botching of the State’s affairs. Governor Schwarzenegger is merely doing the things he was elected to do. Davis missed the point on these new issues, just as he missed the mark on nearly every responsibility he had as governor. It’s not surprising to me that Davis continues to be obtuse on matters that just make sense.

Performance of an unnatural act to draw the offense offside.

About in the middle of the first quarter of the ESPN Sunday Night Football Game between the Buffalo Bills and the New England Patriots, a penalty was called on the Patriots, to wit: Performance of an unnatural act not normally seen in the course of a football game, in an attempt to draw the offense offside.

Made us laugh out loud. Couldn’t they put that in a different way? Made me think that they might have had a sheep on the field or something.

Some of the wide selection Damsel plans to present to little tricksters next Monday.

I saw a poll that indicated that 70 percent of conservative blogs opposed the Miers nomination. Here’s a list of some of our favorite bloggers expressing relief. Some are doing virtual backflips and whooping it up and others are just glad that she withdrew.

There can be little doubt that these and other bloggers who opposed Miers had a pronounced effect on this development. Now, they all hope to be united in their endorsment of the President’s new conservative nominee. We also intend to support such a nominee.

Nope - head up her ass.

Susan Estridge appearing on Bill O’Reilly’s program sounded ever so non-intellectual as she foundered on questions about Hillary Clinton’s presidential qualifications. Estridge has her head so far up her ass she has to breathe through her twat. Maybe that’s why she looks the way she does. Between her outrageous performance as a panelist on Fox Election Coverage, her have-a-poison-apple-dearie voice and her botoxed out, scaring-the-animals face, I wonder why Fox News Channel continues to retain her services. She usually gets the mute button in our house so as not to break Damsel’s Crystal.

“Vriesea fosteriana x gigantea” according to the Bromeliad Society International Genera Gallery.

Just for some nerdy grins, I took a stereo picture of the bromeliad - you will need your 3D red/cyan glasses for this (You can get a free pair from Rainbow Symphony). The rest of us nerds have a pair or two laying around.

With the closest approach until 2018 of the planet MARS this month, you might want to bone up on Martian lore and history (from an Earthbound perspective). This is a link to a very entertaining and informative site called Mars Madness!

Science finds a use for an abnormal brain . . .

After the transformation, the deranged brain wasn’t quite as scary as before. Look at Michelle Malkin’s article AL FRANKEN IS CRACKING UP to see just how scary he was.
