Two @ Random
First: I've been wondering for the last three days who would be the first conspiracy wacko to suggest that Republicans had Paul Wellstone killed. Today on Fox News they report that Ted Rall gets this honor, but can anyone else verify that story?
Second: Every few years we have a news cycle that seems to become dominated by someone with a cool and unusual name. Like Joey Buttafuoco, John Wayne Bobbit, Wolf Blitzer, Kato Kaelin, and so on.
In this news cycle I believe we have our cool name-to-remember-things-by: Hans Blix.
Anyone want to second the nomination? :-)
I think Dairy Queen has a "Hans Blix" on its menu. I hear they are pretty darn tasty.
Names I enjoy hearing:
Bam Margera (from the movie Jackass)
Orrin Hatch (is that a command?)
Arlen Specter (no matter how you spell it, it comes up spooky)
Tony Hawk
Spike Jonze
Eminem (not the tasty candy!!)
Britney Spears (I love it when a last name is a verb)
Tiger Woods
Erskin Bowles (Elizabeth Dole's opponent in the upcoming senate race)
Yo-Yo Ma
and my favorite......Al Del Greco
Tim Snyder
Madelyne Toogood -- the woman who got into trouble for slapping her kid in the parking lot (and was caught on tape by the security camera)
Actually, Rall refers to postings on democraticunderground as sources for his conspiracy theory. Amazingly, Rall seems to think that lends credence to his statements.
Neal Boortz archived some of the democraticunderground comments in his program notes.

This theory was being put forward on the IndyMedia discussion board before they even knew how many people had been on the plane. That is, it was still a breaking story at the time\ and these clowns were already exposing the coverup/
