Heh. Thank you for the psychological image, guy.

Burroughs is placed to contend within the men’s freestyle wrestling occasion on August 10, in which he is heavily favored to take-home the gold.

Best of luck, Jordan! And kindly — ix-nay from the iaper-day.

Every time i see a deformed hand i think of this.

Ram Headbutts A Quadcopter Drone And Then Takes Its Owner Out. Rut Roh.

It would seem we aren’t the only ones unhappy with being spied on by drones, or having our privacy invaded, rams aren’t big fans of it either.

Budd Hanz was flying a remote controlled quadcopter over his land when he spotted his ram, Rambro, enjoying some tasty foliage and decided to fly in for a closer look. The ram on the other hand was far from happy with the rude intrusion and headbutted the quadcopter, knocking it into a bush.

When Budd came to recollect his quadcopter, Rambro was still hanging around, waiting to give him an earful.

Well that explains it, they don’t call it a ram for nothing.

The Baltimore Ravens have announced that they will exchange Ray Rice jerseys at the club’s stadium stores, but one family decided to make a clever alteration to their daughter’s jersey.

Others have been clever too, unveiling the new Ray Rice jersey now that Rice’s contract with the Ravens has been terminated.

‘This means war!’ Nanny Bloomberg starts new war of northern aggression?

http://twitter.com/#!/_MarvinByrd/status/342259761212960768

Oh no he di’n’t!

http://twitter.com/#!/allahpundit/status/342255361354498048

Yes he did. After his plan to get rid of super-sized sodas fizzled, Nanny Bloomberg is now setting his sights on the nefarious nectar known as sweet tea.

This aggression will not stand.

Yes, they are. What’s next? Dissing the delicious Waffle House? Actor Rob Lowe might have a little something to say about that.

The new war of northern aggression!

Here is another idea for you, Nanny Bloomberg:

No, no! Sticking your nanny nose into other people’s personal decisions is far more important!

This Twitter user comes up with the best idea yet:

‘Well clowned’: ‘Maddow’ producer can’t tell difference between pundits and reporters

http://twitter.com/#!/KenShepherd/status/378623424790138880

Indeed it is.

“Rachel Maddow Show” producer and MSNBC contributor Steve Benen is tired of conservatives complaining about the inordinate number of lefty MSM-ers being promoted to political positions in Obama’s administration. So he penned a blog post to vent his frustration:

http://twitter.com/#!/ThePlumLineGS/status/378616134548717568

Earlier today, Erickson published a post at RedState discussing the “revolving door between the media and leftwing politics that rarely exists on the right. It shapes the world view of the members of the media and necessitates conservatives working even harder to get their opinions, views, and stories heard.” He’s right, of course.

But inconvenient truths are hard for the Left. So Benen attempted to disprove Erickson’s point by sharing a “lengthy roster” of all the conservatives who have made their way through the revolving door:

Earlier this year, for example, CBS News hired Condoleezza Rice as an on-air contributor. For members of the Bush/Cheney team, this was hardly an aberration — the Washington Post hired Michael Gerson, a former Bush speechwriter to serve as a columnist, then hired another former Bush speechwriter, Marc Thiessen, to also serve as a columnist.

They join a lengthy roster of former Bush/Cheney officials who somehow managed to secure positions at major media outlets: Tony Snow (CNN), Frances Fragos Townsend (CNN), Ari Fleischer (CNN), Dana Perino (Fox News), Mary Matalin (CNN), Sara Taylor (MSNBC), Nicole Wallace (CBS News), Dan Bartlett (CBS News), Jeff Ballabon (CBS News), Tony Fratto (CNBC), Jimmy Orr (Los Angeles Times), Andrew Malcolm (Los Angeles Times), Juan Carlos Zarate (CBS News), and of course Karl Rove (Fox News, Newsweek, and the Wall Street Journal).

First of all, Benen and his fellow media lefties like WaPo’s Greg Sargent fail to make the distinction between pundits and reporters:

Deflect like the wind, Greg! Sargent is too thick to understand that in his attempt to make Erickson look foolish, Benen actually proved Erickson’s point. But among all the examples listed by Benen, there is not a single individual who made the transition from the media world to the political world. Because, as Erickson says, the “revolving door” essentially exists only on the Left.

Bingo.
