How Freaking Gross— The Occupy Santa Cruz squatters are not only suffering from a ringworm and scabies problem… Hazmat officials were called in to remove 200 pounds of feces from a lot near the #Occupy Santa Cruz squatter camp. On November 15 the Occupy Santa Cruz website announced that the members had provided its own portable toilet and handwashing station and soon would be placing more toilets in the park itself (photo by Alex Darocy) There’s a whole lot of squatting going on at Camp Poopstock Santa Cruz.

NASHVILLE, Tenn. - The state is investigating reports that at least one staff member on Tennessee's Capitol Hill has been urinated on from above a Legislative Plaza courtyard just a few yards from where dozens of Occupy Nashville members are continuing their protest. A memo has gone out from the director of the Legislative Administration warning staffers to be "aware of their surroundings when in the courtyard area."

A second woman who claims she was sexually harassed by Herman Cain identified herself last night, as the Republican presidential hopeful said he would undergo a lie detector test to prove his innocence. Karen Kraushaar, a US Treasury spokesman, was revealed as one of two women to have received five–figure payouts from the National Restaurant Association after complaining about Mr Cain in the 1990s. Mrs Kraushaar, 55, of Maryland, last night described Mr Cain as "a monster".

Last night I was channel surfing and happened across about the last minute of a show called "Mike and Molly" It was, as far as I can tell, the final closing credits. It showed somebody holding an Ipod or some kind of hand-held and they were flicking through a bunch of pictures. Presumably, the stars. even though the two people in the pictures were clothed, it was totally obvious from the first picture *there were about 8 of them) that the two people were in sexual positions. I was just wondering if other FReepers had caught this and what they...

As a long time fan of Sarah Michelle Gellar, I ask that you please consider checking out Sarah in her first return to TV since Buffy the Vampire Slayer. "Ringer" will air on the CW next Tuesday at 9PM. Sarah has started to receive positive reviews for her show. And I hope her show does well in the ratings. Since Sarah & her husband Freddie Prinze Jr. stay very private, they seem to be more on the right on at least some issues.

EARMUFFS!!! The craptalker-in-chief's crap talk has been so craptacular that it's become difficult to see the crap for the crap. So let's get crapping.

DALLAS (AP) -- Former President George W. Bush decided not to join President Barack Obama at a Thursday ceremony at ground zero because he feels that acting presidents alone should preside over such official ceremonies, the former first lady said. Laura Bush told The Associated Press on Thursday that she and her husband were out to dinner Sunday night when they received word that Obama wanted to speak with him.

In light of Elizabeth Taylor’s passing on, I have noticed the world’s secular media (1 John 2:15-17) praising Miss Taylor as a cultural “do as thou wilt” trend setter, one who showed NO scruples when it came to sound Judeo/ Christian values and morality; especially to the God ordained institute of marriage (Matt. 19:4-6, 1 Cor. 9:6, Heb. 13:4). Such secular and godless traits of these individuals are greatly applauded and encouraged by the world to its inhabitants (Rom. 1:32, 1 John 2:15-17). To the secular world (1 John 2:15-17), Miss. Taylor’s philanthropy and endless work in AIDS research and...

“It’s good to allow them to work out their own problems rather than a one-size-fits-all federal government, dumb-ass program. It really is an awful piece of crap.” – Senator Orrin Hatch (R-Utah) on POTUS Obama’s health care law.

Hatch: Health law a 'dumb-ass' programBy Jordan Fabian - 02/28/11 01:43 PM ET GOP Sen. Orrin Hatch (Utah) reportedly directed a few profane insults toward President Obama's healthcare law in a speech late last week. During at an appearance at an event sponsored by the Utah State University College Republicans, Hatch was asked whether he thought the nation's healthcare system needs serious reforms. He acknowledged that states have different problems when it comes to healthcare, but called the federal law Democrats passed last year a "dumb-ass program" that will not solve them. "Every state has different demographics, every state has...

Cover story: Where's the diversity at the Oscars?By Lisa Respers France, CNN January 26, 2011 1:54 p.m. EST (CNN) -- After the Academy Awards ceremony in 2010, there was a great deal of hope that the glass ceiling had finally been shattered in Hollywood. "The Kathryn Bigelow" effect was coined by some industry observers who believed that her win for "The Hurt Locker," the first Oscar for a woman director, would open doors of opportunity for females behind the camera. The riveting film "Precious" yielded a best supporting actress win for African-American performer Mo'Nique, and the first ever statuette for...

Projects to weatherize homes are a key part of the Obama administration's fusion of stimulus spending and the green agenda. But a new report by the Department of Energy has found serious problems in stimulus-funded weatherization work -- ***problems so severe that they have resulted in homes that are not only not more energy efficient but are actually dangerous for people to live in. The study, by the Department's inspector general, examined the work of what's called the Weatherization Assistance Program, or WAP, in Illinois. Last year, the Department awarded Illinois $242 million, which was expected to pay for the...

Okay, first off I admit that I feel like a complete jerk for posting this thread...but I had to. What happened is that a little after 7 P.M. tonight something happened during an ATM transaction involving $40 of my deposit being jammed into the ATM deposit slot mechanism. That very briefly is what happened but it was the circumstances surrounding and involving the transaction (and the charge it was meant to cover) that was so bizarre. To make a very long story short, I soon afterwards had a message flash in my head (which I admit could have been the...
