In a friendly attempt to ruin your weekend, I bring you the story of New Hampshire Senator Judd Greg, husband, father, lawyer, owner of assets some where in the 2.5 to 9 million dollar range, and republican chairman of the Senate budget committee.
Oh yeah, and he also won over 850,000 dollars in the Powerball drawing last week.
I have only one question about this: WHAT IS A FUCKING MILLIONAIRE PLAYING THE POWER BALL LOTTERY FOR? Why? Is he trying to get ALL of the money in the world? He bought 20 tickets. He wasn't just playing for fun, he was trying to WIN the Goddamned thing. Makes me want to throw up.

He can smile all he wants, it's still a mug shot.

Tom “the cleaner” DeLay got another bit of bad news today when the Texas court that indited him issued an arrest warrant for the former House majority leader. Did he take it like a man? No, of course not. His people called it, “standard operating procedure”, tried to blow it off, and he probably made that sincere but pissed off face he makes every time his legal situation gets worse. Needless to say, he's been making that face a lot lately.
In this case I agree with Mr DeLay. It is, “standard operating procedure”. For criminals. People who break the law get arrested, fingerprinted, and have mug shots taken, all things Mr Delay will likely have to do.
I would like to see him get hauled out of the House chamber in handcuffs, windbreaker over his head, cameras pushing into him screaming demands that he answer for himself, and to see his sorry money-laundering ass be stuffed awkwardly into the back plastic seat of a patrol car. Maybe he would resist, and the cops would have to rough him up a little bit. This probably won't happen, but it would almost be worth the Republicans being in control of the house if it did. Almost.

Brain Pan Online is not a huge website. We get a modest, loyal, and highly intelligent readership, (although asskiller seems to have disappeared, probably due to being such a pussy) whom we value immensely, but lets be honest, we can do better. With this in mind we have decided to pursue an aggressive plan designed to draw more attention to this site, thus bringing us the wealth and notoriety we so richly deserve. The plan is tentatively called :
GET THE CHURCH OF SCIENTOLOGY TO SUE US
How, you may ask, does this plan work? Well skeptics, consider the case of scientomogy.info. This is a really small site, that has among its content videos about Scientology and how stupid it is, and videos of Tom Cruise acting bizarre on TV. For this, they are being SUED BY THE CHURCH OF SCIENTOLOGY. See, imagine all the traffic they are getting now. THAT COULD BE US.
So, in an effort to kick off GTCOSTSU, I have the following statement to make:
Scientology is a total load of crap, and Tom Cruise is crazy.
Hopefully this will work, and inside of a few weeks I will be making these entries on a brand new lap top, on the international space station. HERE'S HOPING!
