Any story that starts with the phrase 'A shirtless Brazilian priest ' is okay with me...

Ya gotta like a 'real news' newspaper that doesn't take itself too seriously, right? Case in point, the New York Post's reporting on this 'padre' who got snagged with his pants down. 
"A shirtless Brazilian priest" was caught hiding the fiancée of one of his parishioners under a bathroom sink - but the clergyman claimed that the woman was only taking a shower.
Father Luciano Braga Simplicio was confronted by a group of angry men inside the parish house of Our Lady of Aparecida Parish as the furious groom-to-be unleashed a spirited outburst. The priest, wearing only gym shorts, attempted to leave the room several times, but was blocked and ordered to open a door that the mob believed the missing fiancée was.
Simplicio had allegedly snuck the woman to his home next to the church in the early morning when her fiancé was out of town. The fiancé ran up to another closed door and again broke into it using the wooden stool. Inside the bathroom, they found the missing 21-year-old fiancée hiding underneath the sink.
 
The unidentified woman was pulled out from the vanity and revealed to be wearing only a tank top and shorts as she lay on the floor crying. Both the woman and the priest denied having any sexual relations. Simplicio claimed the woman was in his bathroom because she needed a shower after a long day of working at the church. Way to go, Padre. No little boys for you - you're a stud. Well played...

This document here is all I would need to get Italian citizenship - not that I would want to, but... The Italian Government is looking for new revenue anywhere it can. They've introduced a program similar to the one in place in Ireland already. If you can prove that you grandparents were born in Italy, they will grant you citizenship. This is my grandfather Angelo's citizenship document for when he became an American citizen in 1944. I still have it hanging proudly in my 'office' (you might call it a guest bedroom)...

A 38-year-old Portland musician accused of kicking and biting a federal officer during a weekend protest outside the U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement building made her first appearance in federal court Wednesday.  Prosecutors say Oriana Korol, a clarinetist with the Unpresidented Brass Band, was arrested during Sunday’s “emergency” Naked Bike Ride protest in South Portland after she allegedly interfered with the arrest of another person.  According to court documents, federal officers were attempting to detain a man near the ICE facility when Korol tried to pull him away from officers. Korol allegedly kicked one officer in the leg and bit another on the hand before being taken into custody.

Just how incredibly fuckin' lazy have we become?

Are we so ridiculously lazy that we can't even throw togther a PB&J for ourselves any more? If you think about it, a pre-made sammy like this probablt cost about seven times what what making one yourself should cost.
Smucker’s Uncrustables - the peanut butter and jelly sandwiches found in the frozen aisle - could soon hit $1 billion in annual sales. To keep up with demand, J.M. Smucker Co. will soon open a third Uncrustables plant.
It almost didn’t happen. The product lost money for more than a decade after the company bought the Unscrustables brand in 1998, Chairman, President and CEO Mark Smucker said. The manufacturer once known only for its jellies and jams spent years trying to figure out how to mass produce the stretchy, hole-free bread used in the crust-free sandwiches.
You'd be shocked to find out how many familiar brands that company now owns - from cat food to espresso and more. Take a look here.

  3. I have my English birth certificate - my dad met my mother when he was stationed there during the Korean War. Of course, England is a less appealing place to visit, these days; I've been in Muslim countries before.

  6. You might want to read the ingredients label on the classic LANCE CRACKERS, if you care. Admits GMO's used. Not what it used to be. Trash.
