In Colorado, it’s a felony if you’re convicted under a veggie libel law. So, you could go to prison for criticizing the ground beef that’s being produced in the state of Colorado.
Is it just me, or is this graphic in poor taste? Seems more tabloid than local TV news Web site. I enjoy a bit of gore, and I have a dark sense of humor, but with news graphics I tend to think about it from the point of view of friends or family of the victims. (Oh, also from the point of view of someone who doesn’t want to see lazily thrown together graphics on news Web sites.)
Clicking through to the article adds the details that the magazine seller may have been trying to steal from the homeowner who stabbed her (the homeowner was also injured), that everyone survived, and that the alleged culprits were captured. Perhaps the news channel feels like this is akin to showing a stock graphic of a wrecked car when reporting a crash.
Would I still find it tasteless if it weren’t poorly thrown together on a computer? If someone actually dropped a handful of magazines and dripped fake blood on them? Probably, but I also probably wouldn’t have noticed it in the first place.

Found this while looking for something else. I’d seen the Buddy solo, but not Vinnie’s. A lot of fun seeing them edited together.

- Joey: "Oh. Oh oh. Ooh. Ah! Oh. Eee. Oh! Oh oh." Christopher Walker performs Lady Gaga's "Poker Face" http://bit.ly/4ouTSr
- Ashley: When does she sing "Ooh. Ah! Oh. Eee. Oh!"?
- Joey: I wouldn't know. Perhaps someone on the show's staff made it up?
- Ashley: right... so then why is it funny? Like... you quoted shit that's not even in the song.
- Joey: I pulled it up on YouTube, and now I'm not sure what you're talking about. He's reading the moany bit before the chorus, no?
- Ashley: those are only ohs. There are no ees and aaahs.
- Joey: And with that, this may have become the funniest conversation about music I've ever been part of.
Paul is awsome as a singer, but there very best songs were John singihg, He had such clerity, sush a shame he denounced Christ

‘I deal only with classic literature. I don’t deal with stuff recommended by Oprah Winfrey,’ he notes with an arrogance that’s striking for a guy scourged with winged pests that feed on the blood of humans.
Most people add milk and sugar because they’ve only ever had bad coffee as a result of extremely stale beans, not enough grounds to water, and awful coffee makers. Bad coffee needs milk and sugar to be palatable to nearly anyone. And most people have no idea what they’re missing. Listening to someone rave about the great coffee from their office’s new pod-canister machine or the great new brew at Starbucks is like hearing a repressed, middle-aged woman say ‘I’ve had orgasms before… I think.’
