"Did you see the speech? President Bush spoke from Jackson Square in New
Orleans. It wasn't his first choice for a backdrop, but the water wasn't quite deep
enough for the aircraft carrier."
-- Bill Maher
"The president said much of the aid is going towards job training. And when they
heard that, the people of New Orleans rose as one and said, 'Can we start with
you?'"
-- Bill Maher
"He's like the Peanuts character Pigpen. Wherever he goes, he stirs up such a

3- Princely Posture
Good body language and posture communicates strength, comfort and sexiness
while poor body language and posture communicates nervous energy and lack of
confidence. Again, your body language and posture is not something that
women will process consciously. Their limbic brain is either turned on and
attracted, or turned off. So no matter whom you are, no matter what your position
in life, no matter what kind of women you're interested in, you'll need to master
control over your own body to sexually attract women. The first step toward good
body language is to move deliberately and in a controlled fashion, with purpose.
Unnecessary movements come across to women as nervous tics. Generally you
want to keep an open posture about you. Having an open posture -- uncrossing
your arms, keeping your hands apart and keeping an open stance with your legs
-- shows that you're relaxed, receptive and friendly, and visually sends sexual
cues directly to a woman's limbic brain. Your head, your shoulders, hips, knees,
and ankles should be in a straight, vertical line, not hunched over, and you
should stand with your weight evenly distributed between both feet, not slouching
over on the right or left. Keeping an open, clean body posture in such a way and
moving with purpose will attract women on a level beyond their control.
4- Sexy Scent
Study after study has demonstrated that a woman's sense of smell is much more
powerful than a man's. In fact, with certain kinds of scents, a woman's sense of
smell is up to 100 times more powerful than a man's. Women can even detect
mild body odor from over three feet away. And there's a direct connection from a
woman's olfactory glands to her limbic brain -- so your scent is either working for
you or against you. Fortunately, since women can pick up on body odor so
easily, you can exploit that limbic brain of theirs and smell good to turn them on
sexually. That's why, not only do you want to be clean and fresh, but you'll want
to wear cologne on a regular basis to create attraction in women.

DEAD CAT FUEL UPDATE: A German inventor said he has developed a method
to produce crude oil products from waste that he believes can be an answer to
the soaring costs of fuel, but denied a German newspaper story implying he also
used dead cats. Christian Koch, an inventor and patent holder of the "KDV 500"
that he said produces high quality fuel, said he can transform waste products
such as paper, rubbish and plastic materials into fuel. But Koch, 55, said there
was no truth to stories published in Bild newspaper on that suggested he used
dead cats as part of the mix for his organic diesel fuel. "I use paper, plastics,
textiles and rubbish," Koch told Reuters. "It's an alternative fuel that is friendly for
the environment. But it's complete nonsense to suggest dead cats. I've never
used cats and would never think of that. At most the odd toad may have jumped
in..."
... He gives new meaning to that old slogan, “Put a tiger in your tank”...
... The great thing about using cats is with nine lives, they fill the tank nine
times...
