The Italians are putting together an opera for Al Gore`s award winning book.

I think this is cute and will further piss off those who were soured by Gore`s book and it`s success.

Maybe it was Al that caught Willie and Monica?  Maybe it wasnt Monica and Willie at all, it might have been Monica, Hillary, and Tipper.....

Anything is possible in the white house....

So was that French book that claimed a plane never hit the Pentagon on 9/11. Europe seems to love conspiracy theories. Especially conspiracy theories about them evil Americans.

Haven't you been reading the boards?  Some here think climate change is a big conspiracy. 

All, I have to do is look out my window for the answer.

Except Roger doesn't still sing a razor line, every time...

And WTF. Al Bore already puts everyone to sleep. To have a band of aging rockers bandying about imitating him makes my eyelids seem heavy just thinking about it
