Gaza Terrorist Family Killed By "The System" and Incompetence In Handling Explosives, But Mostly Incompetence At Handling Explosives
— Ace

The terrorist MVP turned to the camera just before the blast and exclaimed, "We're going to Paradise!"

A powerful blast went off in the house of a senior Islamic Jihad activist Friday, killing him, his wife and daughter, along with three neighbors, medics and an Islamic Jihad spokesman said.

Islamic Jihad claimed Israeli warplanes struck the home of Ayman Atallah Fayed. Israel denied it had launched any airstrike in the Bureij refugee camp in central Gaza where Fayed lived. Hamas police said the cause of the blast was not clear.

Witnesses reported seeing fragments of what looked like locally produced rockets at the scene, suggesting the house may have been used to store arms

[Captain Ed:] Of course, the explosion could have something to do with the fact that Fayed had his family living on a pile of bombs.

I don't know. Seems a little "pat," if you know what I mean.

I'm sure some Jews were in the area using their firestarter psychokinetic powers.

Underwater Car... A Convertible
— Ace

Yes, the Polish submarine industry begins producing consumer vehicles.

No top for safety reasons -- in case you need to exit in a hurry. And, probably, because they didn't want a tank of compressed oxygen aboard.

It kind of defeats the purpose that you have to scuba-up to take it into the drink.

Still.

Underwater cars get the ladies w... Eh, too cheap.

Blogger of the Year and all.

You understand.

Thanks to chickpea.

Volvo Dealership Offers Discounts on Anti-Lock Brakes, Hope
— Ace

Oh no they didn't.

Oh yes they did.

I don't want to be a Nervous Nellie, but with companies actually using this jug-eared jackass to sell product... we may be in a spot of trouble.

KevinMc, who sends this, does offer the mitigation that this is a Volvo dealership, after all.

Explained: Commenters rock. Sean says this guy is a "HUGE" democratic supporter, and Matt informs further:

Don Beyer was the Democratic Lieutenant Governor of Virginia and ran for Governor and lost to Jim Gilmore back in the 90s.

Ah. So there you go. Not quite as big a deal as I first thought.

Thailand: Tough On Underage Sex
— LauraW.

Right.

Police in Bangkok have launched an operation to prevent teenagers from having sex on Valentine's Day.

A survey found one-in-four teens hoped to mark the day passionately but sex under the age of 18 is illegal in Thailand.

I did not know that. Really? Really?

Thailand is a mostly conservative country where public hand-holding or kissing are rare and alleged promiscuity among young people, especially girls, is a cause of moral panic.

You can google around to find reams of articles about the rampant child slavery and pedophile tourism in Thailand if you want. I did, and frankly I'm just pretty much sick of this fucking planet.

If it had been a failed surge, think CBS and NBC might have found the latest "Grim Milestone" worthy of note?

Hmm: How Come Women Right In The Front Rows Of Every Obama Speech Seem To Faint At The Same Point?
— Ace

Right on camera, right on cue.

This is all suspicious, but let's remember (God, I can't believe I'm writing this with respect to a jug-eared jackass) the Beatles: Lots of girls fainted for them, too, probably because they internalized, somehow, that they were expected to faint.

Though I would dearly like to check out exactly who these Fainting Fannies really are.

Thanks to Genghis.

Revival Tent Huckstery? It occurs to me that Obama's rallies resemble nothing if not Brother Love's Traveling Salvation Show, and that they just may have incorporate the tricks of that trade: To wit, having someone scout out the "talent" -- those who looked likely to fall to the ground in an ecstatic conniption -- and making sure they were seated front and center.
