    Because you can get a DUI even when you're driving a horse and buggy.

    Bart Smith, continuing to be awesome since 1982 so that you don't have to.

    Love is a duet, each voice complementing each other and making them sound better than they would alone, each voice at times stepping back and letting the other shine. We've got a pretty good duet going Tina.

    On April 28th, I'll be marrying my best friend. I can't wait!

    An 11-year-old Florida girl and her 15-year-old boyfriend are accused of plotting to kill the girl's mother by setting her bedroom on fire while the woman slept, Florida authorities said . . . .

    Police spokeswoman Elizabeth Watts said a motive was "probably just typical teenage angst."

    Typical teenage angst?

    Hmmmn. How about that, OptiBoarders? What say you?

    It's a scandal over there in Northern Ireland. A scandal at that all too familiar nexus of sex and politics. The wife of a prominent politician going astray with a much younger man. But would rinselberg post just any political sex scandal? Not on your life. It's the name of the woman: Mrs. Robinson! Yes, Mrs. Robinson of all people! A bona fide case of life imitating art, if ever there was one. And so I had to get on the bandwagon with this and crank up the old song ...



    For the sordid details, see:

    Lawyer defends fish reeled in from Lake Zurich

    Ah yes, the Swiss lawyer brought the case that the unfortunate lake pike was subjected to "animal cruelty" when being reeled in during a ten-minute battle with a fisherman--please remark that by the time the case went before a judge, the pike had already been cooked and eaten.

    Maybe there's something odd in the water in Switzerland, judging by these two reports:

    I guess he talked himself into it

    A 35-year old man shoots himself dead on the step's of Harvard University's Memorial Church. A story not particularly worthy of posting, except to remark that Mitchell Heisman's final journey into nihilism began five years ago, when he started working on what has literally become his suicide note--a rambling, 1900-plus pages of nihilistic thinking which he posted online under the title "suicide note":

    At the end of his note, a dense, scholarly work with 1,433 footnotes, a 20-page bibliography, and more than 1,700 references to God and 200 references to the German philosopher Friedrich Nietzsche, Heisman sums up his experiment:

    “Every word, every thought, and every emotion come back to one core problem: life is meaningless,’’ he wrote. “The experiment in nihilism is to seek out and expose every illusion and every myth, wherever it may lead, no matter what, even if it kills us.’’
