    Clicking the Diesel link triggered the naughty site filter on my work connection. Great.

    For their XXX Diesel created a SFW porno clip which is quite hilarious. (Still pretty NSFW if you ask me though.)

    Sarah Palin IS just like so many small business owners: she had no idea what she was doing, mismanaged her way right out of business, and is crying out for special status as a result of her membership in the small business loser's club.

    hmm...that last Diesel item seems out of place in your news links. Is that really just a link or is that a paid placement on their part?

    I love seeing ways the MTA wastes our money. That Beehive dude looks hot though, ladies?
