Creative law enforcement

You’ve got to hand it to the Aussies, they know how to disperse a crowd. It worked when we tried it on Manuel Noriega, too. The blog thinks it might also incite a riot.

Key quote: “But some people living near the park are less than enthralled. They say the barrage of ‘Copacabana,’ ‘Could It Be Magic’ and ‘Que Sera Sera,’ blasting from 9 p.m. to midnight every Friday, Saturday and Sunday is driving them crazy.”

Scurry to Anchorage ‘06

In Alaska, the gubernatorial race has taken a few strange turns. There is now a golden retriever in the race. The dog’s name is Brinkley, and Brinkley’s owner needs a hobby.

And yes, this really is a real story.

Pun time:
–There’s one candidate who’s sure to fetch a lot of votes.
–Talk about wagging the dog.
–When Brinkley sees pork politics, he screams, IT’S BACON!
–Bet on this dog in the race.
–This is one dogged campaign.

It’s shilling time

I suppose that I have no scruples. The Sci-Fi Channel has the entire pilot for The Amazing Screw-On Head on its website. Get at least halfway through the show, and it’s pure money. After watching it today, I wholeheartedly support the show, as David Hyde Pierce is a show stealer. And a zombie.

Coincidentally enough, it’s not too different of a role from what he played in Frasier.
