[In the News: The Priest and the Potato]

My husband came across this news article a couple days ago and shared it with me. Now I am sharing it with you. This is by far the funniest thing I have heard in a long time. Enjoy.

A vicar attended hospital with a potato stuck up his bottom - and claimed it got there after he fell on to the vegetable while naked.

The clergyman, in his 50s, told nurses he had been hanging curtains when he fell backwards on to his kitchen table.

He happened to be nude at the time of the mishap, said the vicar, who insisted he had not been playing a sex game.

The vicar had to undergo a delicate operation to extract the vegetable, one of a range of odd items medics in

Sheffield have had to remove from people's backsides or genitals.

Others include a can of deodorant, a cucumber, a Russian doll - and a carnation.

Speaking of the vicar, A & E nurse Trudi Watson, of Sheffield's Northern General Hospital, said: "He explained to me, quite sincerely, he had been hanging curtains naked in the kitchen when he fell backwards on to the kitchen table and on to a potato.

"But it's not for me to question his story. He had to undergo surgery to have it removed."

She advised anyone tempted to use such objects in sex games to think again.

"It can be very dangerous and potentially life-threatening," she said.

"Surgery can lead to infection, nasty scarring, and it could possibly end up with the person having to use a colostomy bag as a result."

A hospital trust spokeswoman in Sheffield said: "Like all busy hospitals we do see some unusual accidents.

Ok so first of all, who does he think he's fooling? Hanging curtains nude in the kitchen? Really? That's the best cover story he could come up with? That is just not possible. If you fell on a potato you would end up with a bruise, not produce in your bum. That is just absurd.

Just admit that you are a kinky old man and be more careful with your veggies next time!

My husband and I bought Wrath of the Lich King last night. It is very awesome. We each made blood elf Death Knights. They are super cool.

We only had a few hours to play but we managed to get to level 59.

I have a feeling we will be spending most of our evenings playing WoW again. Yay!

[OBAMA WINS!!!]

This is a great day!



Barack Obama will be the next president of the United States!




Obama's victory speech was phenomenal. I love how serious he looked. When he scanned the crowd, rather than the jubilant smiles that we've seen from him in the past, he truly looked like he had accepted the enormity of his task.

Very well done Mr. President Elect. You are a wonderful man I will be proud to have you as my leader!

(Notice there weren't any boos when he mentioned McCain. Way to go Chicago, classy and gracious.)

Awesome.

[Apartment 303: Politics Schmolitics]

Well, like a lot of people, I have been following this election pretty closely. I know that I am not the only one who is appalled by McCain's VP pick, Sarah Palin. It terrifies me to think that I might wake up on November 5th to find John McCain and Sarah Palin to be the leaders of our country.

Palin is totally unqualified to be one heartbeat away from assuming the position as leader of the United States. That is a scary thought! The sum total of her political experience is one and half years as governor of Alaska, and six years as a part-time mayor of a tiny town outside Anchorage. Her resume qualifies her to work in a Moose petting zoo, not to be the president of the United States! McCain only met her twice before offering her the vice-presidency. A McDonald's applicant undergoes a more rigorous assessment before he's offered a position flipping burgers.

Palin claims that she is one of us - just another hockey mom. She puts on her adorable, folksy hockey mom routine to tug at the hearts of people in small town America. Palin has the audacity to say that she can relate to the struggles of middle class families. Bullshit. She has spent more money in the last couple months than the average person spends on a house. In just two short months she has squandered a whopping $177, 000.00 on designer clothes, fancy hair styling and famous make-up artists. Sarah Palin can take her "I'm for the regular Joe" chatter and shove it!

The McCain Campaign has been tirelessly working to make Palin look better. After the Katie Couric interview fiasco, they have been much more selective about the interviews Little Miss Hockey Mom is allowed to be a part of. It is painfully obvious that Palin is coached on any and everything she says. It's like she is reading a script. In her first three appearances Palin has delivered the same speech with only slight variations. This indicates a person who can't think on her feet. She relies on memory more than smarts. Palin's performance is not just bad but outright cringe-worthy.

John McCain has irrevocably tarnished his reputation with this desperate attempt to appeal to Hillary's voters and to appease the far right in his party. It is an insult to all of us. McCain has put the security and safety of America at risk. And don't even get me started on McCain...

Bottom line, I tremble at the thought that one day Sarah Palin may be president of the United States. Please, please, please do the right thing when you cast your vote next week.

Vote for Obama!

Okay, enough about that. On to the comics!
