Whatever criticism befalls Johnston during his time in the spotlight, there won’t ever be any questions about the kid’s toughness. Johnston suffered a cracked tibia right before the hockey playoffs during his junior year as a Wasilla Warrior, but decided to ignore his doctor’s advice and play anyway — even if it was just the consolation round. The result? Two goals.
Our next vice president had a retarded baby in April, her fifth child! She would never abort because life is too precious.
And now she’s planning to spend the next 4-16 years in Washington as a major player in the executive branch?
Who the fuck is going to mother your retarded child, Sarah???? Isn’t the whole argument behind having kids “no matter what” grounded in the idea that you will be there to provide a loving family structure in their formative years? Yeah, sure… I realize that the official responsibilities of the VP are pretty slim, but what if the ol’ Codger dies? What is going to happen to your retarded baby if McCain dies and you become PRESIDENT?!
And don’t say “the father will take care of the baby.” He’s a commercial fisherman who spends his spare time sucking oil out of the ground with a straw for BP. Everyone knows that fishermen can’t take care of babies.
Come to think of it, the act of merely getting pregnant while serving as governor is pretty irresponsible on its face.
Perhaps you are like me and have been awaiting this day to see if the charismatic host of American Stoplight, Stuart Shepard, had his prayers for rain answered (see: make it rain, knocka - 8/12/08). But if you in fact were waiting, not only is it not currently raining at 5:45 pm Rocky Mountain Time, but the video in which Shepard cites his wishes for rain was pulled from YouTube after Geoff Geis made fun of it on his blog, and subsequently Keith Olbermann made fun of it on his nightly television program.

Obviously, $50 is a lot of money - especially during a recession. But they can be purchased separately!!! Thus, if you draw me for lifeday, know that I’ll be happy with the “Jungleland” commemorative glass, only $15!:
5 tablespoons honey
1/4 cup bourbon
1 1/2 tablespoons hoisin sauce
1 tablespoon Dijon mustard
1 tablespoon plum sauce
1 1/2 teaspoons mild-flavored (light) molasses
1 1/2 teaspoons soy sauce

3/4 teaspoon hot chili paste (such as sambal oelek)*
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon ground black pepper
2 2 1/4- to 2 1/2-pound racks baby back pork ribs
1 cup unsweetened pineapple juice
Preparation
Whisk first 11 ingredients in small bowl.
Do ahead: Glaze can be made 1 day ahead. Cover and refrigerate.
Preheat oven to 350°F. Place long sheet of heavy-duty foil on each of 2 large rimmed baking sheets. Sprinkle rib racks on all sides with salt and pepper. Place 1 rib rack on each foil sheet. Fold up sides of each foil sheet around rib rack to form boat-like shape. Pour 1/2 cup pineapple juice over each rib rack. Fold up foil to seal packets. Bake until ribs are tender, about 1 hour. Remove ribs from foil packets. Transfer to roasting pan; pour any juices from foil over and cool.
Do ahead: Can be made 1 day ahead. Cover with plastic wrap; refrigerate.
Prepare barbecue (medium heat). Cut each rib rack in half. Grill until browned, brushing frequently with glaze and turning often, about 10 minutes. Cut racks between bones into ribs.
*An Indonesian hot chili paste; available at many supermarkets, at Asian markets, and from mingspantry.com.
Unfortunately, the last post that I made featured a video that has since been deleted from Myspace TV, leaving nothing but a giant error message. I’ve felt badly about that, because I really liked the post. Luckily, the dude also put the video on Youtube, as seen here:
