Kerry pulled Edwards away from Disney World
The Associated Press quoted two officials “close to the Kerry campaign” Monday who said that Edwards interrupted a trip to Walt Disney World last week to meet with Kerry in Washington.
The poor kid – he had to get off Tigger’s lap and fly to Washington!
Caption contest!
Let me get us started.
- Your eyes say “No!” but your hair says, “Yes! Yes! Yes!”
- Kerry: You smell, terrific, John! Edwards: You smell terrific, too, John!
- Edwards: I’ve never felt this way about a man before! Kerry: I’ve never run for President before!
- Kerry: Don’t mention Vietnam too much. Edwards: What’s Vietnam?
Failed Hamas attack inspires song parody
A bunch of terrorists attempted to blow up an Israeli barracks from underground, but in a miscalculation, their tunnel ran underneath a car-park. They did blow that up, killing one soldier instead of dozens. American writer Meryl Yourish quips (with no apologies to Joni Mitchell): “They craved paradise but blew up a parking lot.”

Blowing up the bad guys
PLATTSMOUTH, Neb. — Some Americans this Fourth of July plan to get a bang out of blowing Osama bin Laden’s head off.
The Bin Laden Noggin, a cone-shaped pyrotechnic device with a cartoon of bin Laden’s face, has been a hot seller at some fireworks stores across the country. When lighted, the bin Laden cone erupts in blood-red flames and screeches for 60 seconds. Two shots blow off his head.
It is part of an Exploding Terrorists Heads four-pack that also includes Saddam Hussein, Yasser Arafat and Moammar Gadhafi.
Another hot seller in some places: Game Over, a package of three artillery shots decorated like bin Laden, Saddam and Col. Gadhafi in striped jail uniforms.
Both sets of fireworks are made in China.
