48% Of Us Apologize

Let's be honest.  Most of the rest of the world cannot understand how Bush managed to get re-elected.  Watching "Breakfast with Frost" this morning, the pundits gathered seemed still in shock over how America somehow let this happen.  The British newspapers are still talking about it, though not as bluntly as the Daily Mirror earlier this week.  Yet the question remains:  for months he's had a less than 50% approval rating, yet on election day he somehow manages to pull in above that.  How could that happen?

Wouldn't have anything to do with electronic voting, would it?

Well, now that Bush has stolen, I mean, secured four more years in office, those who haven't supported Bush since day one have something to tell the rest of the world:

We're sorry.

We really are.  We tried.  We really did.  But good doesn't always triumph over evil.  The better team doesn't always win.  Intelligence can't always overcome out-right stupidity.

Now the question is, other than 10 Downing Street, will the rest of the world forgive us?

Get In The Hole!

That phrase is the most annoying ever shouted at a sporting event, yet you hear "Get in the hole!" everytime someone tries to make a putt at a PGA event.  Don't believe me?  Watch ten minutes of golf sometime and I guarantee it'll come up.

Now that's off my chest, you can shout "Get in the hole!" to your wee heart's content whilst playing Crazy Golf. 

Yes, I know you've played dozens of other online golf games, but this one is better.  How is it better, you ask? 

Because it is ummm... low in carbs.  Or fat grams.  Or whatever the hell you're not supposed to eat this month.

  • Stick cricket:  I don't understand how to play this, but I'm sure its fun to someone out there.
  • Striker of the Month:  There are fewer games I'm worse at than this one.  If I hit two balls, I'm feeling good about myself.
