The more things change, the more they...

...stay the same:

John Bolton - you truly have a hefty set of balls. You haven't received approval yet. You haven't even gotten that back-door recess appointment. Yet you still try to double the DC office space usually kept by an UN Ambassador.

Hey, maybe you will need a UK office too! How about the already existing John Bolton Room, at Storrs Hall (pictured above).

...change:

The Barcelona President is Half-Undressed. (Apologies to Jellyfish, pictured abv)

...change:

Bono & Geldorf’s press release on the new start to end deep poverty in Africa. Good on them.

...change:

A US auto manufacturer making nice-nice with the Sierra Club? Yet another new hybrid SUV is debuting - and this one actually gets an endorsement from the Sierra Club. The ‘what would John Muir drive?’ tag is way too cutesy for my taste – John Muir would walk anyway, thank you – but if you are in the market (we are), buy online and let Mercury Motors know The Sierra Club sent you.

...stay the same:

Wallmart insists on changing Willie Nelson's reggae record cover artwork. Frankly, that's how I like my conservatives: out of real power and relegated to complaining about stupid things, like lyrics and record artwork. Smoke them palm leaves if you got em, me vato, Vito Terlingua.
