Couple reels in $80,000 while fishing off the Keys

''They saw a baseball cap floating out there, and they were going to retrieve the baseball cap, and they found a little leather bag,'' said George Rogers, head of the U.S. Customs Service in Key West. Inside: Roughly $80,000 -- in hundreds, fifties and twenties.

The couple ``did the right thing''-- notifying the FBI, which called Customs, Rogers said."

- Did the right thing by handing it to the FBI? The right thing would be to take the dough and NOT pay taxes on it AND be guaranteed that you'll keep it.

Art of War: Jackie Chan news

"Art of War," based on the famous military treatise, will follow. Chinese warrior Sun Tzu's aphoristic essays, written more than 2,000 years ago, attempt to formulate a rational basis for the planning and conduct of military operations.

Chan, speaking at a celebratory dinner Friday for his latest Hong Kong release, Golden Harvest's "The Accidental Spy," said he expects to use "1 (million)-2 million" extras for the war scenes in "Art of War."

"We want to do it without the help of computer effects," Chan said. "I hope that the results will rival computer-effects scenes in Hollywood movies."

Director picked for 'Batman vs. Superman' movie

Wolfgang Petersen ("The Perfect Storm") will direct "Batman vs. Superman," with the major release targeted for a 2004 premiere via Warner Bros., Variety reports.

Neither of Petersen's superheroes have been cast. However, just as Sam Raimi made the unlikely choice of Tobey Maguire for his hit "Spider-Man," Petersen said he is seeking actors who can offer complex emotions as well as six-pack abs. In particular, Petersen pointed to "The Bourne Identity" star Matt Damon as "an interesting action man and a hell of an actor."

- Fuck Matt Damon - cast Ron Jeremy and Crispin Glover!
9/11 Airport Video Footage?

"As anyone who has been to a modern day airport has probably noticed, there are security cameras that record your every move from the minute your car drives in the parking lot to you walking up to the ticket counter - to you going through the x-ray machine to you sitting in the departure lounge and boarding your plane.

The question that has been nagging me for nine months that NOBODY has asked is: Where the hell is the footage of the 17 OTHER 'hijackers'? All we were shown were 19 passport pictures of 19 'dead men.' I'd like to see the footage of ALL of the 19 'hijackers' entering the airport, checking in, going through the x-ray machines, and boarding the bloody plane. Please, do you mind, MR.BUSH?"

About Me

"My desire is to be taken, owned, dehumanized, and forcably transformed into human livestock. Nothing more than a dirty dairy cow, kept naked on all fours, branded, nose ring, breasts & nipples stretched into udders, privates stretched and made more animal like, forcably bred, and kept lactating!"

NOT work safe!
Our President and the Constitution

Bush's idiotic statements (does he have any other kind) regarding the Pledge of Allegiance and how we need more "common-sense judges who understand that our rights were derived from God".

I guess after the butt-raping of America called the Patriot Act - "god" given rights will be the ONLY rights we'll have.

Who gets the most pleasure from sex, the man or the woman?

"The second difference has been less publicized: women are capable of sustained orgasm, called status orgasmus. These orgasms may start with a 2-to-4-second "spastic contraction" and last 20 to 60 seconds all told--and if that isn't nine times the pleasure, it's definitely in the ballpark. Masters and Johnson published the chart for one woman who experienced a 43-second orgasm in which one can count at least 22 successive contractions."

Palestine plans "giant suicide bomb"

"We'll lure them all in here - you know promise them a big party or something. Then the entire Palestinian population will detonate themselves in a single enormous explosion. This will guarantee the immediate destruction of Israel and creation of a Palestinian homeland - although there won't be anyone left to live in it, unfortunately."
