Interesting. "Hiram" has biblical and masonic undertones.
[en.wikipedia.org]
"In Masonic tradition Hiram I is considered one of three founding Grand Masters of the fraternity. He appears in Masonic ritual as the provider of materials, money and craftsmen for the construction of Solomon's Temple. This comes from the Biblical account of the alliance between Solomon's Israel and Hiram I's Tyre. In Masonic legend, King Hiram is said to have sent his most skilled master craftsman, Hiram Abiff, to serve as the construction's foreman"

What are the chances the Hiram The Slasher's dad was/is a freemason?
If so, does this contribute to his political durability?
(If anyone cares, that is)

Anyways, future ladyface-slashers, I sadly report that even if your victim does forgive you, liberals will show you no mercy :( Unless you're a rich and famous artiste. In that case, the scars on your victim's face will be an engrossing visual commentary on the meaning of life and an insight into the human condition. People might even thank you for putting the scars there and contributing so much to the world.

It certainly doesn't look like the Giraldo incident is this kind of "misunderstanding," but it's important to the cause of justice to weigh this case on its merits, not just to jump to the conclusion that her denial is something victims "always" do.

Frankly, he should lose a ball for this.

Say you're thinking about a plate of shrimp (a Repo Man reference, not an attempt to slag keeping kosher by those who do). I just heard a Matisyahu song on one of the XM channels.

But when I create my steadicam-heavy White House TV drama, I'm casting Martin Sheen as President Willard, his character from "Apocalypse Now." Brando is his Cheneyesque VP, Robert "Kilgore" Duvall is SecDef, and Dennis Hopper is his Drug Czar.
