The Week That Was: 9/7/07

Fred Thompson is in. Jack McCoy officially takes over as District Attorney.

Jerry Lewis uses the "F" word; Eddie Griffin uses the "N" word. Fuck No!

It ain't over until the fat lady sings. For Pavarotti-- the fat man, anyway.

Apple's refunds to overeager IPhone buyers leaves IPod buyers wondering if they overpaid too . . .

Senator Larry Craig resigns, then reconsiders, then decides he probably will resign after all. Some degree of indecisiveness in recently-outed gay people is to be expected, I suppose.

Thousands of faulty Chinese-made condoms were returned by the DC government. I guess that explains why they have over a billion people over there.

Katie says there's significant improvements in Iraq. I guess "CBS" stands for "Couric's Been Smoking" . . .

Adventurer Steve Fossett went missing in the Nevada desert this week. Three days, and no signal . . . from a guy who probably has GPS implanted in his dog, I'd say he's circling the drain.

George Bush tells Australia's Johnny Howard he's kicking ass in Iraq. Yeah, Petraeus' ass-- for recommending a troop reduction.

At the Movies-- go with "3:10 to Yuma", which pits Maximus (Crowe) against Batman (Bale) in a remake of the classic Elmore Leonard western. The film takes place in the 1800's, so you won't be seeing Crowe through any phones at anybody.
