Despite what your drunken penis-brain tells you, that hot redhead who reminds you of Louise (Padlock’s girlfriend) on the hysterical historical geology road trip to Niagara Falls is NOT hot for you. This is not the first time you will confuse a girl that talks to you with one who is interested in you.

It’s a really simple distinction – the first one is usually real.

Anyway, she’s just trying to get you out of the room so another couple can hook up.

Don’t worry, you DID offend her. And, no, she doesn’t have any cigarettes you can bum at 3 am, but pound on her door for 10 minutes just to make sure.

Is that a Mercedes? Uh, no.

What the hell was wrong with us in the 70s?

• Ford Falcon chassis (basically) – does that make it a Mustang?
• 250 OHV I-6 from a John Deere
• It had a 4 speed stick, unless it was a 3
• Was unable to handle golf balls from, uh, space, without dimpling its trunk.

Poll: Bush most unpopular in modern history

New poll numbers show bad news for president Bush.

WASHINGTON (CNN) — A new poll suggests that George W. Bush is the most unpopular president in modern American history.

A CNN/Opinion Research Corporation survey released Thursday indicates that 71 percent of the American public disapprove of how Bush his handling his job as president.

“No president has ever had a higher disapproval rating in any CNN or Gallup poll; in fact, this is the first time that any president’s disapproval rating has cracked the 70 percent mark,” said CNN Polling Director Keating Holland.

…

CNN Senior Political Analyst Bill Schneider adds, “He is more unpopular than Richard Nixon was just before he resigned from the presidency in August 1974.” President Nixon’s disapproval rating in August 1974 stood at 67 percent.

The poll also indicates that support for the war in Iraq has never been lower. Thirty percent of those questioned favored the war while 68 percent opposed the conflict.

“Americans are growing more pessimistic about the war,” Holland said. “In January, nearly half believed that things were going well for the U.S. in Iraq; now that figure has dropped to 39 percent.”

The numbers on the Iraq war come on the five-year anniversary of President Bush’s “mission accomplished” moment onboard the aircraft carrier USS Abraham Lincoln, when Bush proclaimed that “major combat operations in Iraq have ended.”

The record low support for the war in a CNN poll could be one reason behind the president’s unpopularity, but it probably is not the only one.

“Support for the war, the assessment of the economy and approval of Mr. Bush are all about the same — bad,” Schneider said…
