Nancy Cartwright and Bart Simpson

I wonder how superstitious folks would react if only good things happened every Friday the 13^th. Though, as a friend of mine pointed out, confirmation bias would probably annul any contradictions. Stupid reality, getting in the way of fun thought experiments …

• Same shit, different day: No-knock drug raid ends with former Marine dead after SWAT fired 71 shots in seven seconds, with wife and young children in the vicinity.

• This latest WND birther claim isn’t just pathetic – it’s pathetically pathetic. Squared.

• Ron Paul is running for President. Kooky as many of his stances are, he’s still the best the GOP has to offer (other than Fred Karger). Which is kinda scary.

• Nooo! Nancy Cartwright [pictured], voice-actor for Bart Simpson, wants to bring Scientology into Illinois public schools.

• The Drudge Report – what is this I don’t even
