CNN Does It Again

Surely there are other news organizations out there, but I like it that CNN, the once only 24-hour news game in town that was stuffy and boring as a trip to Grandma's, has now become just another sensationalist quasi-news reporting. It's like the E! Channel started taking about forest fires and war. Anyways, I think that CNN hasn't mastered the sensational side of things too much, it's like they are going through puberty and are just kind of pimply and awkward, so they overcompensate and really are just go-crazy-nuts with their headlines. For example.

"Man with Sword Mistakes Porn for Rape"

Honestly, how can that be real? How is it that The Onion hasn't done something with that?
Hell, look at the actual URL linkage:
http://www.cnn.com/2007/US/02/22/porn.sword.ap/index.html

Porn sword? PORN SWORD? That's different than a huge dildo, my friends. It is a sword forged from all pornography, that moans and wails and it cuts through the air and leaves the wounds it cleaves choked with DNA.

And I thought this year couldn't get any stranger.

VIVA EL MUSTACHE!

PS...for those looking for mustache content, I am regrowing my mustache for an event called Barlympics in March. Should be a good time.

Barlympics is a multi-venue event where a group of mustachioed males (obviously) compete in a series of booze related games. We bowl, we play pool, darts, buck hunter, and I think golden tee.

All the while, drinking occurs. And since the venues are bars, the event is called bar-lympics.
