Poor Rick Santorum
If you haven’t heard it before you will most likely hear about it shortly. Sen. Rick Santorum has a problem with Google (well not just Google but all the search engines really, but apparently he uses and blames Google the most).

Cute Kitty in a Sticky Situation

Talk About Coming Out of the Closet

Amish Murderers, What’s Next?
