Pop Goes Weasel

FYI: Mountain Dew is not an essential food group
... to promote the well-being of me and you and all those overly Rubenesque neighbors we end up behind at Jackson store counters, praying to God the butt seams in their trousers don't split until they're out of range.

Whoo-hoo! Val!

C'mon, let me be your huckleberry
I've been hearing the rumor for months. Supposedly, Val Kilmer has been seen in Boise. And not in the "Where the hell is the road I take to get out of here?" way, either.

Poseidon Shrugged

Then choked on a plastic Nemo
I have something to say to those people who may believe in global warming but refuse to admit that the puny efforts of mankind could possibly be responsible for it.

Fort Hood a shocker ... why not U.S. war crimes?
When Americans get killed, it's a big story. The lives of foreigners, on the other hand, are pretty much worthless.

America Sneezes

Failure on H1N1 highlights a bigger crisis
A country with a strong, well-run government would order employers to give all employees with flu-like symptoms paid time off from work.

Real Death Panels

President maintains 'right' to kill American citizens
Obama could still personally order a government agency to murder you. That's not as weird as the fact that you probably don't care enough to do anything.

Mail and Commentary, Nov. 4

"Ummmmmm, yeah. I had wayyyyyy too many enemas growing up in the late '70s and early '80s ..."

Mail and Commentary

I am Mormon, in no way does Beck represent our teachings and I think it is very important to note that the reason his Mormonism isn't brought up is because he doesn't bring it up on purpose.

Mail and Commentary

"The key to good art is not being 'good' but sucking boldly and honestly."

Note

Note: July has been moved to November.

Instead of talking about all the cool stuff people are doing outdoors now, we took a breather this week in Rec to catch up with the people who fetch us out of the wilderness when our outdoor adventures become misadventures

Note: Idaho Wolves in Focus

The inaugural wolf hunt is one of the most significant events of 2009 in Idaho, and Boise Weekly would be remiss not to cover the story in some capacity.

Note: It's all about the white stuff this week

Now, as we head into November, I'm not sure if winter is almost here or if it's almost over. Yep, it's going to be a looong winter with that kind of attitude. Good thing I'll need a looong winter to improve my wanting skills on the mountain.
