Mere Coincidences?
Whether you are anti-Bush, pro-Bush, or simply lukewarm about his presidency, you may like to ponder these remarkable facts:
Look what happens when a President gets elected in a year with a "0" at the end.

1860: Abraham Lincoln (assassinated)
1880: James A Garfield (assassinated)
1900: William McKinley (assassinated)
1920: Warren G. Harding (died in office)
1940: Franklin D. Roosevelt (dies in office)
1960: John F. Kennedy (assassinated)
1980: Ronald Reagan (survived assassination attempt)

one elected in 2000!

The Awfull Truth
In 1969, Neil Armstrong made history by becoming the first man to walk on the moon, uttering the immortal phrase, "One small step for man, one giant leap for mankind." Or did he? Previously suppressed footage discovered shows that Armstrong's reaction was a great deal more uninhibited than history suggests.
Thanks to Blogjam.

Doggy Style
What about a real doggy style ? Time for a new caption ? You're free to go in the comments or little photoshopping ?
The original picture found at Boners.
Talking about 'the real thing' ...
Ever heard of the Blowbib ? Or the The Accomodator.
So far a short post from my part ... maybe more later, if the site stays online. There seem to have been problems the last 2 days and maybe the next days more problems will occur but we are busy to transfer the site (along with Flabber) to a new server with more powerfull backbone. Expect a more fast and reliable Coolio's real soon. Hope you'll stay loyal to uss. We are really working on a solution, please stay with us ;)
