This just in....Senator Feinstein backing proposed ban on all meat cleavers, knives, and "pointy kitchen utensils". (Except for her kitchen, of course)

Akter was charged yesterday with second-degree murder

Those carboyhydrate cravings can be murder.

Oh geez, I don't want to make fun of this, but you know, being a confirmed carbo addict, I fully understand hacking to death someone who has deprived you of your carbos...

If I were guessing I'd go with the "religion of peace."

Apparently we need to seriously question the motives of anyone who wants to buy a meat cleaver. Perhaps a mandatory seven-day waiting period, and registration of all privately owned meat cleavers.

Seriously, there should be a law to prevent this kind of sensless kitchen utensil tragedy. STOP THE INSANITY! Can't we all just get along?

Have we figured out yet how this whole thing is Bush's fault?

Rather, more evidence that the sugar fix from carbohydrates is as compelling as that of a heroin addict.

Maybe that explains convenience store robberies - it's not the cash, its the candy.

Easy sugar energy is the enemy in the War On Obesity, since your ample fat stores never get the call unless you restrict the sugar I.V.

"She picked up the meat cleaver and started hacking away - smashing Begum's skull, cutting off one of her fingers and leaving gaping wounds in her arms, sources said."

Maybe she wanted some Chili con Hombre with Lady Fingers for desert.

Sugar is C6H22O11. Six atoms of carbon and 11 molecules of water.

Is carbon fattening? Nope.

Is water fattening? Nope.

Then why is sugar fattening?

Just today's pop quiz.

The fat comes from the highly dense energy stored in the bonds between those carbon, hydrogen, and oxygen atoms.

She was later photographed holding an assault rapier with her finger hooked inside the crossbar and commenting on it's speed, lethality and ease of aquisition by gang banging rennies.

I say, let's start Sheila Jackass-Lee's hurricane renaming in earnest:

Let's begin with the letter "A": Ayesha

What a role model!

Small correction: the energy comes from the bonds...not the fat. The fat comes later.

Gotta love our open borders, take in anything and everything. Take in the rest of the third world then we can all live happily ever after as a third world cesspool.
