I was just visiting one of my favorite websites for news and information--BPNews.net--when I came across some photos of Jerry Falwell's funeral.

I never thought it'd feel so good to see him stuffed inside that box.

"My question is in regards to private military contractors. The Uniform Code of Military Justice does not apply to these contractors in Iraq. I asked your Secretary of Defense a couple months ago what law governs their actions."

The President:    I was going to ask him. Go ahead. (Laughter) Help. (Laughter)

Q:    I was hoping your answer might be a little more specific. (Laughter) Mr. Rumsfeld answered that Iraq has its own domestic laws, which he assumed applied to those private military contractors. However, Iraq is clearly not currently capable of enforcing its laws...Mr. President, how do you propose to bring private military contractors under a system of law?

The President:    I appreciate that very much. I wasn't kidding. (Laughter) I was going to--I pick up the phone and say, Mr. Secretary, I've got an interesting question. (Laughter) This is what delegation--I don't mean to be dodging the question, although it's kind of convenient in this case, but never-- (laughter). I really will--I'm going to call the Secretary and say you brought up a very valid question, and what are we doing about it? That's how I work. I'm--thanks. (Laughter)

I haven't listened to many others, but I recommend listening to Daniel Dennett's full interview. There's an interesting exchange between him and the interviewer on epiphenomenalism where Dennett just destroys. http://meaningoflife.tv

On the high end, Cornell receives an average of 250 applications per year. They accept about 7 applicants. Go 2.8 percent!

Then there's Tufts. They don't offer a Ph.D. like Cornell, but who needs a Ph.D. when 17 percent can have a Master's!

I think I may have shit a little in my pants.
