Bombs on Blogspot: While Russia and Georgia square off on the ground, hackers attack a new frontier: Georgia’s internet – as the government’s sites crumble, the military switch to using Google blogs. Excerpt from current post:
“09:12 Four civilian cars with murdered passengers are reported to have been seen in the village of Tedotsminda, Gori district.”

Pink Dollars: Gay tourists drop more and more dollars in Isreal, pissing off the Orthodox population.
Hand Up: Oregon child services help mothers who are victims of domestic violence.
Out of the East: Federal education funding puts $18 million toward getting rural Oregonians to college.

Did Israel have one of those “Tel Aviv is so gay” campaigns or something?
Georgia won’t let me leave comments. This makes me sad.
Oh, I say, S. Mirk, you missed the single biggest news of the day, news that threatens the very existence of humankind on this dismal blue pebble. This from the BBC:
“The 1975 cult film The Rocky Horror Picture Show is to be remade co-financed by Sky Movies in the UK and MTV in the US, it has been announced.”
Another BBC article mentions the remake is being produced WITHOUT the blessing of creator Richard O’Brien.
Great bloody hell.
Commander Wirthington:
I am shocked and quite distressed by this news.
I know Tim Curry. There is no actor alive who can portray the good Dr. Frankenfurter with such elan and accuracy.
I am depressed by this news. What time does Huber’s open?

A thought. If Tim Burton were retained to direct this remake. . .
Tim Burton? Yesss. Ex-cellent.
