    Okay, this must be done: I was in on the Lindbergh kidnapping. They promised me nobody would get hurt, but I should have known that damned kraut was lying and I can't die with this on my conscience. Also, I am 94 years old.

    So which celeb couples are going to announce their breakup/divorce this weekend so they can hide under the Michael Jackson Death Press Umbrella? (ok, the name needs a little work)

    In the most boring bit of news that you didn't hear about category, new jobless claims jumped unexpectedly yesterday. That's what happens when you borrow a trillion dollars to "stimulate" the economy and don't spend 80% of it after four months.

    @ChillbearLatrigue: Wait (and not to pile on, but really), you just said that new unemployment claims went up because 80% of the appropriated stimulus money hasn't been spent yet (which means it hasn't been appropriated, which means it hasn't been borrowed. So your argument is that if the stimulus money is spent, unemployment will go down.


    And you do remember that everyone (including the President) involved with that bill said one of the big challenges would be getting the money into the pipeline, right? Because that's what I heard.


    Finally, four months isn't a long time. I mean, I given that Republicans' idea of stimulating (their donors' personal) economies is to send massive palates of bank notes worth billions to a foreign country where it promptly gets lost while in the possession of said donors, you're not saying they have any better idea of what to do with the economy, are you?

    @Scout 3.0: My Daddy ordered the MiniSupercharger. You bolt it under your carburetor and it increases gas mileage four hundred percent and power by thrice. What a gadget. When it didn't work, nobody wanted anybody to know they fell for it, so there were limited complaints. It became the standard for duplicity until the Repugnant party after 1964.


    Plus, Daddy never paid for mail orders; he just remained under the $20 radar and it was all free.

    I've been trolling Gawker as momof3wildkids for several weeks. I've realized that I have an alcohol problem, for which I will be entering rehab in Argentina before spending more time with my family.

    "Overcoming Credulousness" is a course I highly recommend whilst there.

    Has any other unemployed person noticed that MTV is actually showing music videos?


    I don't even know what to do with myself.


    And the fact that they're all Michael Jackson makes me think I've gone through some sort of time warp.

    Okay, here goes. I once killed a man because I wanted his fillings. I can pawn fillings for frozen yogurt, you see.
