You ever have days when you think: "There has got to be something better than this homo sapiens gig?" When you think: "I'd actually rather be a dog. No, not some pit bull that kills a 3 year old, just that old-fashioned 'man's best friend'--just to get a little distance from 'man'?"
And the Academy Award for What Could Be More Pointless goes to (pregnant before conception pause)
"Judge: Ft. Hood suspect could be forcibly shaved."
We are talking barberous job-creation here!

Yes, Nidal Hasan hisself. A freak-out mass killer, who almost in every step of his career, people doubted he should be in his position. But like Penn State and the Catholic Church, everyone just grumbled under their breath, at best.
"Maj. Nidal Hasan appeared in court Wednesday sporting a beard, which violates Army regulations. Hasan says his beard is an expression of his faith.
On Wednesday, Col. Gregory Gross found Hasan in contempt of court for keeping the beard and fined him $1,000. Fort Hood spokesman Chris Haug says Gross gave Hasan the choice to shave or be forcibly shaved sometime before his court-martial begins Aug. 20."
A $1000 fine. Might as well dredge up Ted Bundy's parking tickets while you are at it.
And just when I think things cannot get more absurd, I find this comment to the article:
"dip it in pigs blood first before you shave him just to get it close enough to his skin"
Hey, take that "Lord"--vengeance is everyone's prerogative! There is more than enough hate to go around.
I am so grateful to have a little Lassie to snuggle up with, and ask her: Why did you cast your luck with us?"
