#1 They won't like this article then > BBC > Scientists to probe large underwater hole in earth's crust [Atlantic Ocean - da Mid-Atlant Ridge]. KEY PHRASE - "EARTH'S CRUST IS NOT REPAIRING ITSELF". *All together now, wid feeling, WE'RE DDDDOOOOOOOOOMMMMMEEEEEEDDDDDDD, + its Dubya's fault. The good news is NOT Terra Firma being hollow, or we've found the Mother of all Global SINK-HOLES/SINKHOLE-ZILLA, but News > AMERICA'S BIGGEST PROBLEM: ITS DEBT SYSTEM.

#3 Most blogs that use a lot of color, look awful, but Angie has done a very nice job on hers. Visually one of the best I've seen.

#4 Eurovision Song Contest organizers said Thursday they might ban this years Israeli entry, Teapacks Push the Button, because of what they termed its inappropriate political message.

Sometimes I've to remind myself that the 2 + generations we've to wait until Europe is gone is not such a long time (except in individual terms).

#5 "Nerdy Jewish Apocalyptic Cabaret Rap"

If Tevi from Fiddler on the Roof did hip-hop, you'd get the Teapacks.

So goofy it's . . . goofy.

I like it.

There's much suffering
In the streets there's too much violence
And there's a good chance
[Two lines I can't decipher]
Tactical advance
of a fanatic regime
Tragic situation
that puts tears in my eyes

The French texte:

Il ya plein de souffrance
Dans les rues il y a trop de violence
Et on a beaucoup de chance
d'être vivant même pas blessé
Avancement tactique de
régime fanatique
Situation tragique qui me
met les larmes aux yeux

#7 Et on a beaucoup de chance
d'être vivant même pas blessé

And you've got to be lucky
to be alive, not even wounded.

(or close to that I think, Anon 5089?)

#8 And you've got to be lucky,
to be alive, not even hurt.

(fixed - scans better for rap)

#9 Another gem from Angie.

"Push the button" Something we should have done after 9-11. Compassion is one thing Dhimmitude is another.
