It?s Always Sunny In Philadelphia: Day Man Lyrics
2007-10-22 22:59:00 I have been watching every episode of It’s Always Sunny In Philadelphia Season Three and by far the funniest episode yet is: Sweet Dee’s Dating A Retarded Person. It’s not because of the so obvious storyline…anytime a person could possibly be dating a retarded person and not know is pretty entertaining. But even funnier than that was the B storyline where the smash hit Day Man by Charlie Kelly and Dennis Reynolds was created. It wasn’t easy but I got my hands on the Day Man Lyrics (ok, I actually just watched the clip and wrote them out for you…so what).

2007-10-01 16:58:00 An amoeba called Naegleria Fowleri living in warm lakes this summer enters the body through the nose and attacks the brain where it feeds on your brain until you die. Even though encounters with the microscopic bug are extraordinarily rare, it has killed six boys and young men this year. The spike in cases has health officials concerned, and they are predicting more cases in the future. “This is definitely something we need to track,” said Michael Beach, a specialist in recreational waterborne illnesses for the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention. “This is a heat-loving amoeba. As water temperatures go up, it does better,” Beach said. “In future decades, as temperatures rise, we’d expect to see more cases.” More About: Health , Read , Brain , Lakes , Eating

2007-09-20 10:07:00 We all know someone (maybe even ourselves) who has a tattoo that they no longer like and they want to know how to remove a tattoo. Well for now, there really isn’t a quick or painless way but here is how to do it. Dermatologists will tell you that their business is absolutely booming thanks to people who at one time loved their tattoos but now…not so much. Laser tattoo removal is a procedure that is becoming more and more popular with time. Laser tattoo removal is where a state-of-the-art laser is used to target the pigment in the tattoo.

Read My Lips No New Taxes
2007-09-15 12:58:00 “Read my lips: no new taxes” was a famous pledge made by Republican Presidential candidate George H. W. Bush at the 1988 Republican National Convention in his acceptance speech on August 18. Written by speechwriter Peggy Noonan, the line was one of the most prominent sound bites from the speech. The no tax pledge had been a consistent part of Bush’s 1988 election platform, but its prominent inclusion in his speech cemented it in the public consciousness. The impact of the pledge was considerable, and many believe it helped Bush win the 1988 United States presidential election. peggy noonan, Presidential Race, president bush, president bush lied, read my lips, tax pledge More About: Taxes , Lips
