Well folks, it has not been such a happy New Year for a good portion of the globe and the shocking story of the Asian tsunami has dwarfed all others. Despite the political hay making about who is giving what, we here at the BHC are preferring to avoid trivialising the horror by getting into such unpleasant frays. We simply recommend giving what you can to help alleviate the terrible conditions now plaguing that unfortunate part of the world.

But this won't prevent us from making fun of this week's cast of bozos.

The BHC has seen Donald Rumsfeld really sad and then he blurted out something he probably shouldn't have, the Army National Guard is now offering up free t-shirts in exchange for the chance to get blown up, and Pell grants are going the way of the dodo for many low income students. In Pennsylvania, evolution cannot explain a few things and these will now be happily explained in class by tortured readings of the Bible. Jesus scores!
