"Third Eye Blind Headlines Jakarta After Bombing"
What, first Jakarta gets bombed, then we send in Third Eye Blind? BRUTAL. 
August 7, 2009 -- Despite security concerns in Jakarta, Third Eye Blind will

Winehouse allegedly stole two grams of cocaine while partying out of Kate Moss's purse, claims Blake Fielder-Civil, her ex-husband. ALLEGEDLY? Come on, it's Amy Winehouse and cocaine.
Fielder-Civil said Moss told Winehouse to grab a $bill out of her bag to snort lines with. She found the cocaine, snatched it, did some off a toilet (of course), had sex with him and then continued to keep doing it in front of everyone. Moss was too drunk to notice it was missing.

The Associated Press

He said that up until two years ago, he had only four suits and said "those jeans are comfortable." He [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[I hate it when I go to use the bathroom and someone else's turd, pee-pee and toilet paper are still in the bowl. It's a two-fold shame; not only do you have to suffer the lingering stink that has suffused the entire bathroom, but the site of someone else's turd is enough to make you want to vomit. Plus, you have to flush before you begin your own evacuation because the mere though of someone else's pee and poop splash somehow getting on you is the vilest of vile thoughts.

		<description><![CDATA[I've been waiting patiently for our internet guru to somehow shoo away the elves that live inside our system that have been preventing me from uploading original photos. (Whenever I ask what is wrong with Synthesis.net or blog.synthesis.net and receive a technical answer that is beyond my grasp, my brain translates that answer into something I can understand. In this case it's mischievous elves.) 
I'm hoping that today is the day, because frankly, I'm sick of this shit. 
Fuck you, scary elf.

So when Gertrude the iguana escaped his cage last weekend and began sunning himself on the neighbor's fence like some majestic reptilian being, I volunteered to recapture and incarcerate him. He was cool with me up until we started climbing the stairs back to the apartment. 
Did you know a fully grown iguana can claw the fucking shit out of you? Their claws are sharp and like this long:
