• Just Say Yes to Just Say No
  A video that's gotta be seen (and heard) to be believed: it's New Mexico Congressional candidate Darren White, presently a county sheriff, in an early '90s anti-drug rocker entitled "Just Say No." Wonderfully cheesy local production values are in full swing. Enjoy...

• King Hip is no longer - Joe Zawinul, 1932-2007
  A music giant has left us. Josef Erich "Joe" Zawinul -- who established a new school of music with Miles Davis and led the seminal Weather Report with Wayne Shorter, Jaco Pastorius, et al. -- passed away Tuesday in his beloved Austria, appropriately in Vienna, the "city of musicians." He visited this planet for 75 short years and, had I my druthers, would have had 75 more productive seasons before his exit...

• Legendary rockers Kings X set to release 15th album
  The other night on 'The Late Show' I heard Paul Shaffer and his band cover the song "We Were Born to Be Loved" by beloved grunge pioneers King's X. It's not the first time Shaffer's performed it, he seems to be a fan, as KX bassist Doug Pinnick tells it...

• Mapquest, Google scramble to add new nation Lakota to maps
  Oh, would it were so. But it's gonna take more than a press release to make the defining of a new country's borders a reality. Lakota Oyate, a Native American activist group that just a couple of weeks ago declared the sovereignty of Lakota Sioux land in the north-central U.S., has issued a map outlining the newly free and independent nation of Lakota. It's shown below, click on image for a larger version...

• Mickey Mouse will have his revenge on Iran
  So the Senate caved into Lieberman's wish to attack Iran at will with a bipartisan vote. Oh, I know, it's non-binding and not an actual declaration of war, and they amended some of the language. But you should know how these things go by now. This has given Bush the political justification, however flimsy, to execute 'Operation Bomb the Ragheads II: Git that Amadajad Feller.'

  Exclusive Q&A with writer Taibbi.

I'd want to have a giant shark tank built expressly for this purpose. Just throw them in there and then dump a couple of barrels of cow blood in the water..."

• There's no business like war business
  There are 160,000 troops stationed in Iraq. There are 200,000 contractors serving various military functions there. Some of these contractors perform mundane tasks such as meal preparation and laundry. But many are involved in dangerous activities. And others have access to high powered weaponry, which they have (allegedly) sold on the black market or used for target practice on Iraqi civilians. And how are these contractors controlled? They're not...

  Unlike all the damp-eyed accolades from certain members of the press, stalwart American journalist Bill Moyers has no love for the hastily departing Turd Blossom. "Karl Rove figured out a long time ago that the way to take an intellectually incurious, draft-averse, naughty playboy in a flight jacket with chewing tobacco in his back pocket and make him governor of Texas was to sell him as God's anointed..."

• Who can Fox News get to pad their ill-fated Dem debate?
  With the latest news that of the current 2008 Democratic presidential candidates, only rantin' grandpa Mike Gravel, kindler gentler racist Joe Biden, and "Peace Gnome" Dennis Kucinich are bothering to show up for Fox's debate in a few months, I'm wondering who the pseudonews network could call on to fill out the seats that Clinton, Edwards, Obama et al. won't be sitting in. A few worthy possibilities came to mind...
