Skull n' Bones Strikes Again!

Here's my theory. And, as Bad Religion taught me, sometimes truth is stranger than fiction (watch-oh!). You guys heard about bush "falling off his bike" and getting all bruised and scraped up the other day? Well, rememeber during the 1st year or so of his presidency, he was in the news all fucked-up looking - I don't remember if that was the pretzel incident or when he had cysts removed from his face- either way, he was all banged-up in the face. I rememeber that on that weekend it happened last was some crazy skull-n-bones holiday/anniversary/reunion or something like. THIS weekend when he got all fucked up is when his kid graduated from Yale, and he actually stayed there for a night at the dean's house or some shit. What if all these times he's having accidents, he's really getting his ass kicked by the skullnbones or something. I'm serious guys. You never know (watch-oh!)

Cool News Piece about filmaker Ken Burns giving a the graduation speech this weekend at Yale (that bush kid skipped out on the ceremony) and he got some good rips in at bush co.
"Steel yourselves. Your generation must repair this damage, and it will not be easy," Burns told the seniors.
Burns quoted famed jurist Learned Hand as saying, "Liberty is never being too sure you're right."
"Somehow recently, though, we have replaced our usual and healthy doubt with an arrogance and belligerence that resembles more the ancient and now fallen empires of our history books than a modern compassionate democracy," Burns said, to applause from the 1,300 graduates and their families and friends.
