The planet is therefore too compact to be made mostly of hydrogen gas, like Jupiter, the researchers say, but not compact enough to be a rocky 'super Earth', as some had speculated. Instead, they believe it must be made mostly of an exotic form of water.. .....exotic form of water?!? What, like Fiji...or Evian? Did you know that water had over a dozen solid forms? Space is fascinating.

Remember that video of an off-duty cop beating the SHIT out of a female bartender? Yeah, well...he's pleading not guilty. And this after he threatened to plant drugs on the bar owner's employees to keep the surveilance tape under wraps. To steal a FARK-ism...ASSHAT.

Too much fighting in Palestine....Hamas v. Fatah, taken to the streets....Israel attacks both of them. This is good NOT.

Inevitably, Giuliani will split the Republican party....which will give the Dems more votes, will make me smile, and will get my favorite little infidel back in his cozy spot in the hall with a cigar.
