Fast Eddie Felson Friday

Cosmo Kramer of Seinfeld fame had his coffee table book that also doubled as a coffee table. Now senator Larry Craig will write the perfect book for bathroom reading. Craig will touch on many subjects (heh) including the now infamous game of footsie he played in an airport men's room with an undercover cop. Apparently the whole incident has left Craig with a bad taste in his mouth. (double heh)

A Texas court has ruled that authorities did not have sufficient reason to remove the children from the whack job polygamist compound and concubine training center better known as the Yearning for Zion Ranch. Granted the case had some questionable elements to it. The original caller turned out to be a hoax, albeit a well intentioned one. And some of the women turned out to be of a consensual age. That said, there were underage girls who were pregnant. There is well documented proof that these underage girls were being married off to older men. So do you protect the pseudo religious freedom of a group of pedophiles or the human rights of under age children. We have our answer, since the court has ordered the kids returned to the very people who were pimping them out. In related news FLDS has changed the name of the compound to Yearning for Pre Pubescent Girls in Under Roos Ranch.

Local blogger RDM has a great post about a Green Beret who died by electrocution in a shower in IRAQ. He also posts some photos and personal insight on his tour of duty. Give it a read.

That's it for this week. Everyone have a good un, and I'll see you back here on Monday.
