My Make-Up Paper

Today's a bit more managable, so it's time for a run-thru of the Winston Salem Urinal.

Starting with yesterday's yellow journalism, Page 2 there is a Great Wailing and Gnashing of Teeth by the Earth Day believers. Seems they can't figure out why most Americans have lost interest in supporting their causes. Of course, in their view, it couldn't be because they've gone absolutely f'kin stupid at one wing of the Enviros and terrorist at the other. Nah - must be Bush's fault.

Also yesterday, one of their editorial snippets takes a slap at the new Pope. It quotes a statement from Benedict XVI saying basically that the problems within the Church - particularly the priest/boys thing - it being blown out of proportion by the Western press. Okay, I don't buy that, but the editorial goes on to say that the Pope and Tom DeLay must "have similar conspiracy theories about the press."

One article today caught my twisted sense of humor - Hugo Chavez of Venezuela is giving out free copies of Don Quixote to all his subjects, "to feed our spirit with this fighter whocame out to get rid of injustice and fix the world. Hughey baby, I gots some really bad news for you. First, Don Quixote is fiction, not Spanish history, OK? Second, his shaving basin helmet was his "Golden Helmet", not his Tin Foil Helmet.

Oh, well. Time to gather the Doggie Droppings (which should give you a hint as to the creative spark behind this site's name), then on to see what everyone is bleating about.
