I didn't even know there was a "Stupid.com!"

Thank you to "Anonymous" for tipping me off about the availability of Penguin Tea-Timers for only $11 at Stupid.com. At first I thought it was some kind of trick and would link to a picture of myself or something, but they actually are selling the teatimers endorsed by our own Master of Ceremonies, Chicago. I suspect that he normally borrows it from his roommate to make sure he doesn't overdo the hottubbing.

The penguin, of course, was presiding over a debate which, at its core, addressed the question of how our faith can impact our actions as citizens and lawyers. In discussing the death penalty, we were addressing a subject which Christianity directly addresses. I suspect that many of those there (including me) had their ideas about the death penalty adjusted a little, at least, as there were good and principled arguments on both sides. In the end, it is very hard to engage the law from a position of faith, and I have great admiration for the people who do. As the Waco Farmer pointed out in the last question of the evening, we have a great example of this in many of the abolitionists who played a role in ending slavery in the United States.

Can I just vent for a minute...I hate having to write a brief for a complete loser of an issue. It's a true pain in the posterior and challenges me only in that I have to find ways to twist words into a confusing maze of nonsense. Thank you, we now return you to your regularly scheduled blog.
 
Oi, achei seu blog pelo google está bem interessante gostei desse post. Gostaria de falar sobre o CresceNet. O CresceNet é um provedor de internet discada que remunera seus usuários pelo tempo conectado. Exatamente isso que você leu, estão pagando para você conectar. O provedor paga 20 centavos por hora de conexão discada com ligação local para mais de 2100 cidades do Brasil. O CresceNet tem um acelerador de conexão, que deixa sua conexão até 10 vezes mais rápida. Quem utiliza banda larga pode lucrar também, basta se cadastrar no CresceNet e quando for dormir conectar por discada, é possível pagar a ADSL só com o dinheiro da discada. Nos horários de minuto único o gasto com telefone é mínimo e a remuneração do CresceNet generosa. Se você quiser linkar o Cresce.Net(www.provedorcrescenet.com) no seu blog eu ficaria agradecido, até mais e sucesso. If is possible add the CresceNet(www.provedorcrescenet.com) in your blogroll, I thank. Good bye friend.
 
Spammed in Portuguese - you're moving up in the world!
 
Maybe I'll use the Penguin next time I have to "invigilate", as they say here, an exam. Spice up the kids' exam-taking experience.
 
To say you didn't know stupid.com wasn't a website is like saying you didn't know there was something called porn.com. You may not have been there but you know it exists.
 
TLGuy,

Been there, done that. These sort of tasks, however, are what truly stretches and improves writing skills.
 
I'm concerned about this 'stupid' penguin. My penguin has a top hat and commands authority like Abraham Lincoln use'ta could.
 
Stupid.com is a wonderful site...I highly recommend the rubber chicken keychains if they still have 'em.
