A baby is wandering alone by a pool with a float toy. The toy falls in the pool and we realize the baby is going to try to retrieve it. The narrator says "Just tell her parents you weren't watching her because you were getting high. They'll understand." And a title comes on sending us to a website where you can delve into even more anti-drug propaganda. What could be wrong with an ad that's trying to protect babies from falling in swimming pools? Plenty. The problem is that "getting high" can be easily and logically replaced with absolutely anything. "Just tell her parents you weren't watching her because you were making lasagna." "Just tell her parents you weren't watching her because you were having sex." "Just tell her parents you weren't watching her because you were too busy writing a TV commercial for the government's morally bankrupt war on drugs." What makes the ad particularly despicable is it seems more concerned about drug use than the fate of the baby. Once the ad delivers its anti-drug message, it doesn't give a fuck if the baby falls in the pool. Hey, wouldn't it be cool if the baby DID fall in the pool and die? THAT would teach them a lesson. Don't do drugs. The baby can go ahead and fall in the pool as long as the excuse is that the babysitter was getting high. I don't know the actual statistics, and I don't have the stomach to do the dead baby research necessary to find out, but considering how many dead babies are found every year baking in cars, I can't help but imagine that the primary excuse for abandoning babies is shopping. Where are the anti-shopping ads? It could have had a point and a damn important one; watching the baby trumps everything. If you've got a choice between taking that important call you've been waiting for all day or watching the baby, you've got to watch the baby. If you're just about to come but the baby's drowning, sorry chum, the baby comes first. That's what makes parenthood such a humbling experience. A human life is entirely dependent upon YOU, and no matter what, the baby comes first. There are exceptions. One of the standard questions asked in parenting classes is "If you're in a plane with your baby and there's a loss of cabin pressure and the oxygen masks fall down, who do you put the mask on first, yourself or the baby?" All the parents try to show how self-sacrificing they've become by loudly proclaiming "the baby" but it's the wrong answer. If you pass out from lack of oxygen while holding the mask to the baby's face, you're both dead. Since the baby's survival is entirely dependent upon YOUR survival and YOUR ability to hold the mask to its face, you've got to guarantee your own survival first, THEN hold the mask to the baby. If you want to kill your neighbor, you've got to be proactive. Sitting around doing nothing is not going to do the trick. You've got to actually DO something: hide on the roof and drop a brick on their head or fix them a cappacino with arsonic. But if you want to kill your baby, you don't have to do a thing. Sitting around doing nothing is PRECISELY what will do the trick. Since a baby is dependent upon you for absolutely everything necessary for its continued existence, you've got to ACTIVELY keep it alive, every moment of every day, without rest. Everything else comes second, including making lasagna, getting laid, and yeah, getting high. It's an easy fix. Keep the same graphic but change the voiceover to "Oh, man, I gotta take a dump. I'm sure the baby will be okay. I'll try to make it fast. Unh. Unhhh. Unnggngngnhhh. Ow, wow, man, it won't come out. What am I going to do now, man? Unnngggh. There we go. Wheew, that was a hard one. Don't tell me there's no toilet paper. Shit, man, where's the toilet paper? I ain't never again takin' no dump at this place when I'm babysitting again, I tell you that."

For Their Babysitter).

Fight the new world order. Stop asshole CEOs from moving their factories out of the country. Stop Walmart. Shop at an online site where every product is made in the USA. Buy American. But don't try finding a pair of athletic shoes. Not one. Nope. Not one. Remember this, and it's an important thing to keep in mind. The corporations don't manufacture overseas because the product is BETTER, they manufacture overseas because the product is CHEAPER. If the guys at the top weren't so piggy, if the goal was to feed and clothe everybody instead of just making out like a bandit, you'd have a job. Insane E-Mail of the Week PLEASE DON'T DENY US SATAN LUCIFER
Good News Isn't it great they removed the "anti-war profiteering" penalties from the $87 billion spending bill? Now we can profit from the war without worrying about getting penalized. Yay! Saving NBC's Credibility Either Saving Private Lynch was broadcast on NBC using a new form of technology meant to prevent taping, some extension of copyguard that messes up the picture in a brand new psychadelic way, with the screen divided into 16ths, each 16th coming in a fraction of a second behind the one beneath it, creating sort of a Predator effect, making it unwatchable and sort of making it cool because you can hear everything fine, it's just the picture that's scrambled by some brand new technical gismo the CIA has been working on for years that can actually allow them to foretell and download your political affiliation through your VCR, messing up the subtitles so no one in a foreign country would ever be able to read them, making Saving Private Lynch a VERY SPECIAL FILM meant only for AMERICAN eyes... or something was wrong with my VCR. In any case, if their goal was to stop me from writing the ultimate piece on the Lynch MOW, they've succeeded, the bastards!
Margie Schoedinger, the Texas woman who accused George W. Bush of statutory rape and forcing an abortion upon her, has been found dead. Everyone who believes it was suicide, raise your hand. According to the Houston Chronicle, "MARGIE D. SCHOEDINGER expired Monday, 9/22/03. Visitation: Friday, 9/26/03 , 7 to 9pm, McCoy & Harrison Chapel. Funeral Service: Saturday, 9/27/03, 1:30pm, McCoy & Harrison Chapel. Interment, Houston Memorial Gardens." This site, where Schoedinger's lawsuit was originally posted, now says "The requested URL was not found on this server." Luckily, I posted the whole thing here where you can read Schoedinger saying "the Defendant also informed Plaintiff that his only option to assure his never having to answer for the previous contact would be to simply see Plaintiff pressured to the point of committing suicide." Anyone wanna guess how much money will be spent by the Federal government investigating the mysterious death of Margie Schoedinger? Where's her NBC movie-of-the-week? A Quarrel Between a Rabbi and a Priest Rabbi Bloom and Father O'Reilly were arguing one day about religion. They went on for some time and very soon, things began to get out of hand. Finally Rabbi Bloom said, "We must not quarrel in this way. It's not right. We are both doing God's work, you in your way and I in His." How About the Effects of Stupidity? Researchers at the Yerkes National Primate Research Center at Emory University have discovered you can reverse the effects of cocaine using your own brain. How Come Nobody's Asked Bush... If your wife needed a late-term abortion to save her life, how would you feel about the fact you just signed a bill that's essentially her death warrant? Rocket Science
The Union of Concerned Scientists has this to say about the new energy bill. "So what is it that
we honor when we honor veterans? In the context of a volunteer army, do
we honor the soldiers' willingess to wreak death and destruction
on total strangers? Where is the honor in that? Better to honor the people
who refuse to commit state sanctioned mass murder.
"What good is a man's knowledge unless it prompts

"Never confuse a single defeat with a final
defeat."
"I am of the opinion, on the whole, that the
manufacturing aristocracy which is growing up under our eyes is one of
the harshest that ever existed in the world; but at the same time it is
one of the most confined and least dangerous. Nevertheless, the friends
of democracy should keep their eyes anxiously fixed in this direction;
for if ever a permanent inequality of conditions and aristocracy again
penetrates into the world, it may be predicted that this is the gate by
which they will enter."
"Well sir, it's been five
long years, but seminal Lewinskygate figure
Linda Tripp
- that malignant cyst in a fright wig - was finally able
to collect her payoff. For helping Inquisitor General Ken
Starrquemada set up his blowjob
perjury trap, Dubya's Pentagon has decided to "settle" Tripp's
privacy
suit for $600,000.00.
"Iraq is the central front in the war on Terror."
"Terrorism is a technique for killing people.
That doesn't tell us who the enemy is. It's as if we said that World War
II was not against the Nazis but against blitzkrieg."
"In a long war, we are going to have tragic
days. But they're necessary."
"Honestly, it's a little tougher than I thought
it was going to be. If we have to, we just mow the whole place down, see
what happens. You're dealing with insane suicide bombers who are killing
our people, and we need to be very aggressive in taking them out."
"We've got a real irony here....We have politicians
selling access to something we all own - our government. And then we have
broadcasters selling access to something we all own - our airwaves. It's
a terrible system."
"In our every deliberation, we must consider
the impact of our decisions upon the next seven generations."
"A lie told often enough becomes the truth."
