Suspicious Parcel In France Contains Elephant PoopThey made a big production out of it, but to be fair to the French police, elephant poop is suspicious. I mean, what the hell do you do with it? I can't imagine it's part of a potpourri. [No link, I was just sent the article in full, without a URL.] Envelope containing elephant poo sparks alarm Traditional religious rites? Okay, whatever. Who knows. But pink? What sort of elephant was this? Thanks to Greg. posted by Ace at 01:43 PM

Probably intended for some artist who wanted to throw it at a picture of President Bush or Pope Benedict or something. Posted by: Slublog on August 4, 2005 02:02 PM
poop? you couldn't have said dung, or crap, or maybe even shit? lame. Posted by: trey on August 4, 2005 02:02 PM
Anybody see that video where some poor Indian elephant keeper is tending to the rear foot of an elephant, and the beast actually sits down on him? The poor guy's head went right up the pachy's...exit chute. Only quick thinking by another tender saved the guy from getting squished entirely. I bet that poor sucker had to leave town after that little episode -- he'd never be able to show his face in public again. Posted by: Monty on August 4, 2005 02:05 PM
Trey: It's a well-known fact that poop is one of the more comical-sounding euphemisms for excrement, with turd being an excellent substitute in certain situations. That is all. Posted by: Monty on August 4, 2005 02:06 PM
Perhaps this is the latest masterpiece from that cheap Nigerian hustler who made fools of the art "intelligencia" at the Brooklyn museum with his crude painting of a Madonna with real elephant dung on it. And someday, the 20th century will be known as by far the lowest point in the history of art (unless it manages to get even worse). The notion that only those select few who are educated in art and appreciate the beauty of modern creation will be revealed for what it is: a titanic fraud perpetrated upon the world by Leftists. Surely many artists feed into the idea that they are making great creations that many in the masses simply cannot understand, as great a self-delusion as any Liberal every enjoyed. But the Emperor cannot waltz around with no clothes forever, and sooner or later the people will see it for the doshit that it really is. And the people who so ardently championed it will be revealed for the fools that they really are. Posted by: 72 Art Hustlers on August 4, 2005 02:57 PM
This isn't what they've been making all of that colored powder out of that they throw around on Holi, is it? Posted by: Dave Munger on August 4, 2005 06:30 PM

Elephant poo in a envelope who would send something like this through the mail? Posted by: mad heron on August 7, 2005 04:06 PM
I lived in Washington, DC in 1985-87. One evening I got on a subway car heading downtown. As the doors closed behind me I became aware of this smell. I was raised on a farm, so I recognized the smell as that of the droppings of a large herbivorous mammal, but I could not identify the species. I looked around the car as it began to move. It was a bit less than half full. Every passenger except me had a large, transparent plastic bag half-full of what was presumably the source of the smell. I stood with my back pressed against the closed doors, remaining very still. I hoped that no one would notice me, that there would be no cry of "Hey! He doesn't have a bag of crap! Get him!" At the next stop, I quickly exited the subway car and got on the next one, after a quick visual and olfactory examination. As I was reading my subscription copy of the Washington Post that night, I ran across a one-paragraph article. It said that the circus was in town, and that free elephant manure would be available to gardeners. That is all I have to say. Posted by: Bob Hawkins on August 8, 2005 10:41 AM

Dear RNC; Go f*ck yourselves. I have gotten 56 texts in the last two weeks...all offensive and sneaky and all begging for money. At this point I would rather donate to AOC. [CBD]
BIG NEWS UPDATE NOT FIRED from anon2020 So what, she quit? Megyn Kelly (accursed be her name) used to say all the time that Fox has a top female PR person who is a nasty pitbull and leaks nasty claims about anyone Fox is at war with, including those who have left the network. So I guess maybe she technically resigned? I don't know. NEW: @FoxNews has obtained Lindsay Clancy defense attorney Kevin Reddington's appeal filing to the MA Supreme Court, which includes Reddington accusing the lone holdout juror of being "biased" against those with "debilitating mental illness", which he says is a protected category. Thanks to Mark1971
Holiday Break: I've had a rough couple of weeks -- the shoulder is healing now and I'm finally getting decent sleep -- and I've decided to take a long weekend.
I'm taking Friday off, and then Monday off, too. I have Open Threads for both days and I will post if big news breaks, but if it doesn't -- and it probably won't, news is slow before a holiday weekend -- I'm going to take a four day weekend.
Sh0eOnHead discusses the Psychotic Cult of Lindsay
Real quotes: "This case has me feeling like I'm on Law & Order with you guys!" "We literally binge true crime as a hobby, we've been trained for this moment" Worth the watch. If you haven't seen the genuinely upsetting insanity motivating thousands of women, you should watch this just to see how society is crumbling. Ban TikTok, Trump. I don't care if Barron tells you it's popular with the yutes. It is an evil Communist China op and it is driving women insane.
Dolly Parton tells the story of the supposedly real-life Jolene
As Andrew Branca says, can we see this Jolene, finally? Who was this hottie that was a genuine sexual threat to Dolly Parton? I think this is Fake News personally. When a magician claims he learned a trick from a Himalayan wise man, I don't believe him either.

Breaking news: Dolly Parton had a real pair of 38s
Or at least one. She carried it everywhere for protection. This joke brought to you by Benny Hill. And speaking of the British: The Buckingham Palace guard tributed her yesterday
Dolly Parton is badgered into saying something negative about Trump's bus-board locker-room talk, but refuses to bow to the media pressure, telling the twink agitator she learned long ago to "keep your damned mouth shut"
What I'm appreciating is that while her surface is soft and sweet, she's got some actual steel a centimeter underneath.
1977 interview shows that Barbara Walters has always been a seaward and Dolly Parton always had "country class"
Walters actually asks Dolly Parton if she knows that people think she's a joke. This because Walters can't get over the fact that a show-woman has 1, big breasts, and 2, dresses a bit outrageously because, get this, she's an entertainer. A stage performer. You know, someone people pay money to see live and expect them to put on a show. She never would attack Liberace for wearing glitter-tuxedos. But she's mad that Dolly Parton makes Barbara Walters look bad through association (by being a woman). Babs, you wish people associated the two of you. Believe me, we can tell the difference.
