It's a good thing I'm not still in high school because that would have made me all excited.

And then I would have realized you were talking about CANADIA and not my high school, the initials of which are BC.

"QALQILYA, West Bank — He's three days old, just 6½ pounds and from the look of his sleepy eyes and screwed-up mouth, he's far more interested in his next meal than in hearing about the high expectations attached to his name.

But by the time baby Nasrallah Mohammed Daoud is old enough to understand his moniker, he'll no doubt have plenty of contemporaries. After the bloody conflict in Lebanon, Hezbollah leader Sheik Hassan Nasrallah is gaining thousands of fans, and dozens of tiny namesakes, in the Palestinian territories.

“We dreamed of the name, and then we had the baby two weeks later,” mother Lubna Anturi said. “We love Nasrallah because we live an intifada and we are always seeking someone to help us. He has boosted our morale.”

In Lebanon, Mr. Nasrallah's popularity is greater than ever. While some Lebanese blame him for triggering the conflict by kidnapping two Israeli soldiers in a cross-border raid on July 12, others have gained new respect for Hezbollah and the way the militants fought off the powerful Israeli army."

Jesus' tomb has apparently been found!

normally, i wouldn't pay any mind to this news unless it was actually proven, but it caught my attention because i recognized the name of the founder. he hosts the show "the naked archeologist" on vision tv.

I wouldn't doubt it; even though he already said he was joking.

then it would have read:

"the man is a drug addict, and a wank."

you need the "and" in there when ending a list.

otherwise, as is, it would read:

"the man is a drug addicted wank."

this ends laurel's grammar lesson of the day.

no. he could have put

"the man is a drug addict, wank"

as in he's calling the poster above him a wank. (short for wanker i'd assume)

Laurel don't call me out on my typos. I'm generally quite decent with it. haha.
