While You Were at the Bar 5/15

Things are heating up here at the bar...

News you can use:

At a campaign stop in Grand Rapids, Michigan, Senator Barack Obama introduced his former rival John Edwards to thunderous applause. Edwards announced his endorsement of Obama in an effort to unite the Democratic party and shortly after Obama picked up his anti-poverty initiative.

A rocket fired by Palestinian militants in the Gaza Strip hit an Israeli shopping mall Wednesday, injuring 30 people. Israel promptly retaliated by firing a missile at Humas gunmen, killing two of them. All of this took place while President Bush was in Jerusalem meeting with Israeli leaders to mark the 60th anniversary of the founding of Jewish state.

The polar bear was listed as a threatened species by the Interior Department Wednesday. The threat stems from the deterioration of arctic sea ice, the bears' home. Interior Secretary Dirk Kempthorne was very clear that this listing is in no way an effort to address climate change.

News you can lose:

Confirmation of the rumors that Brangelina are expecting twins came today in an interview with Angie and Jack Black, who were promoting their new movie "Kung Fu Panda." Sad news for Andi and Niki since nothing will kill the mood of your party faster than some uninvited guests.

Word of the day:

proposition: the act of offering or suggesting something to be considered, accepted, adopted, or done or what we would like many of these men to do to us (unless you're Gajet where only Russell Crowe will do!)

When Josh Duhamel propositioned me, I slapped him, because I'm a lady, and then promptly ripped his clothes off.

(What did you girls do when you got propositioned?)
