MSNBC - Letourneau gets out of prison

Yesterday at coffee, some friends and I were talking about Mary Kay, and then we started talking about teachers we had crushes on. I remembered one of my teachers, Miss Gross. She was anything but gross, she was fine. Why couldn't she have been Mary Kay to my Villi?

The republicans have to know that impeachment procedures will be initiated in the Senate against President Bush for his crimes against, and lies to the American people. These things being true, I am very concerned about what the republicans will be willing to do (and what they are per...

Senator Kennedy

Honestly, I don't understand the furor over this latest Kennedy flap. There is no proof that he had been drinking, and nobody got shot in the face. And as we all know, according to precedent, it's perfectly acceptable for high ranking government officials to get liquored up and shoot folks in the face. That didn't happen, so as I said, I really don't understand what all the fuss is about.
