Right To Privacy

Do we have one? What's your opinion? It certainly seems to be diminishing rapidly. One enterprising American has invented undergarments that provide privacy for one's privates through the use of a dye that shows up blurry on those new full-body scanners. If you don't want jpegs of your junk all over the Net, you might consider investing a few bucks in a pair of these -

USA!

This is probably the greatest commercial in the history of television. Even better than the "What Should I Do?" Lebron commercial.

I Thought Beer Was for the Horses And the Men Get Whiskey...

But this is pretty awesome. I was thinking "hey, wouldn't it be nice if someone started a website through which an appreciative US (or French, cough, WWII) citizen could buy a soldier a beer.

And here's the song to which I alluded in the title. It's one of Toby Keith's best. His official video version is terrible, so we'll see how long this one stays up -

Steeeeee-rike!

This is the coolest thing I've seen a sitting president do. I cannot imagine the pressure he was under in throwing out the first pitch at a baseball game in front of a packed stadium and an entire country watching. At the end of the video, chants of "U-S-A" break out. Best...country...ever.

The Most Badass Bird of All Time

This is pretty awesome. The bald eagle has been removed from the endangered species list. In the 1960's, there were only about 400 of them in the lower 48 states (there are 40,000 in Alaska, but none in Hawaii), and there are now about 10,000. The nation's symbol will continue to be protected under the Bald and Golden Eagle Protection Act. Sweet. Read whatever article you like here to check up on my facts.
