POPSZombies Ahead! Apparently the "authorities" are idiots. They should talk to the local high school kids, as the instructions on how to hack these signs have been on the internet for a while now.

POPS61 ex-Guantanamo inmates return to terrorism Now how do you like that. We had them all nice and locked up and we let them go, right back to terrorism. Wanna bet that there will be a public outcry of "why did we let them go!?" whenever one of these guys kills a bunch of people. Best part is that it will probably be by the same people who protested us keeping them there in the first place.

POPSObama's Speech Writer I think this guy is a good choice for Obama. If you want to reach the up and coming generation you employ one of their own to help. Its a good move, not to mention the guy consulted with Peggy Noonan who wrote Regan's speeches. Obama certainly has poised himself, so far, to go down in history as a great speaker. the article is way to long for the clip so go check it out.

POPSSugary Soda Tax Ehh, not sure what to think about this. On one hand it certainly did well for me to drastically reduce my soda intake a few years ago (lost 10 lbs in 2 months by just cutting out sugary drinks) but on the other hand it is up to individuals to control themselves not the government. But, Americans are increasingly stupid about their dietary choices. Check out the rest of the clip at the link.

POPSCan blue Colored Light Prevent Suicide I'm not sure about suicide but for about a year back in high school I used to wear round sunglasses with blue tinted lenses all the time. I always told people that when I was wearing them I always felt more mellow (and no, it wasn't because of the smoke, didn't venture into that area until well after high school) I guess it wasn't just in my head :) follow the link for the rest.

POPSSimple Explanation of the Stock Market While the man was away the assistant told the villagers, "Look at all these monkeys in the big cage that the man has bought. I will sell them to you at $35 each and when the man returns from the city, you can sell them to him for $50 each." The villagers rounded up all their savings and bought all the monkeys. They never saw the man nor his assistant again, and once again there were monkeys everywhere. Now you have a better understanding of how the stock market works.

POPSSimpsons porn.... Illegal????? I'm not condoning this type of thing but the fact that someone could be convicted of a crime because of it is utterly ridiculous. People make drawings of all kinds of crazy stuff, does this mean that the next time an animator kills someone in a cartoon that they should be tried for murder?!?! Because if as the article says "Justice Michael Adams ruled a fictional cartoon character was a "person" " then there are a LOT of people out there in a LOT of trouble. If they had found genuine child pornography on this guys computer then I would say this was all well and fine, but characters such as the Simpsons don't exactly closely resemble real people. It may point to something deeper with this person or it may not, but the law is not supposed to convict on speculation.

POPSGerman churches find 'chocolate Jesus' tasteless Catholics believe that they are eating the flesh and drinking the blood of Christ every time they do communion. So whats the big deal is about eating a chocolate baby Jesus? It has sure got to taste better than those nasty dry wafers.

POPSObama plans to spend more $ than the iraq in 2 years! Here's your change... Obama is going to make the money spent on the war look like pocket change AND he is already backing out on campaign promises. Just goes to show that politics don't change just because the figure head does. Can't wait until the country's poor figure out that Obama isn't going to pay their mortgages and cell phone bills.

POPSHow obama got elected... The most misinformed voters in history. Its truly sad when the reasons for voting for someone come down to their skin color or the media hype. Be sure to go to the page and read the telephone polls conducted and the responses to the process. A quote from one of the links defending the legitimacy of the poll: "We went out of our way to find articulate people who thought they were informed about the election. I did not even choose the subjects (for whatever it is worth, they were chosen by a black female)"
