How well do you know your fundamentalist hate-mongers? Take the Falwell-Robertson-Bin Laden Quiz. I only got 8 out of 20 correct. On the page with the answers, be sure to read the context of the very last one. I couldn’t believe it. (Link courtesy of Steve.)

Wow. You know that Greyhound bus crash this week, where the driver’s throat was slashed? He survived. I thought he was one of the six who died. That’s amazing.

This is the first Rebecca Gayheart article I’ve read that didn’t refer to her as the “Noxema girl”. Unfortunately this incident didn’t do a lot to dispel my image of her as your average Hollywood airhead bimbo.

This cheered me up. It’s a true story about the men aboard a German warship showing solidarity with their American Naval friends a few weeks ago.

Okay, kids, you may have kicked my ass on the Miss America quiz, but how will you do on this one? It’s a lot harder. I got 14 out of 17, which I’m pretty proud of. On the 3 that I missed, I had the year right but got the wrong days. Go try and see how you do.

Everybody’s talking about the big Eastenders shocker tonight. I don’t get why they keep calling it an “incest” storyline though. *Spoiler alert for UK fans!* It’s about a family of five sisters, where the youngest one is actually the eldest one’s daughter. She was too young to raise a child, so the family covered it up and the parents raised her as their own. But unless the father is somehow related to them, I really don’t see how it qualifies as “incest.” It’s not a friggin’ V.C. Andrews story.

Update: It is a V.C. Andrews story. Read the comments at your own risk. (Bigtime spoilers.)

That airplane guy I mentioned yesterday is sorry. He didn’t mean it to be an airplane. And besides, his mother says, kids always taunted him about his spinal disability. WHAT?
