The Blog Days of Summer

I have returned and essentially morphed into the iPhone 3G - unable to update and eventually obsolete. And for that, I apologize. But, thats the price you pay when you are a lazy college student with days packed to the brim with sloth and apathy. I really wish I had less time to spend on this thing, but alas, I am too free to do much of anything of un-fun these days.

South Korea and Japan are in the midst of a heated argument over the territoriality of a group of islets in the Sea of Japan. Although Korea states that is ready and willing to “take strong countermeasures, including diplomatic, academic and administrative actions” to assert its sovereignty, the debates appears to be largely nominal. South Korea calls the groups of rocky islands Dokdo, Japan calls them Takeshima, while the rest of us still insist on calling the territory as, “huh?”

John McCain has likened himself to Teddy Roosevelt. While in office, he plans to name all stuffed animal dinosaurs after himself.

America’s terrorist list finally hit one million people when Angelina Jolie's twins entered the world as the two most lethally good-looking people.

That’s all I have, really. I’m adopting Obama’s pull-out strategy for these posts – taking troops from the areas of least danger of being hilarious (now) and eventually bringing home troops from more dangerously comical areas (in two years when I update again). Maybe I’ll Photoshop a fourth joke into this post to make its hilarity even more unimpressive.
