"Almost Legal !"

The Olsen twins will turn 17 in the month of April making them a year away from being league to all the guys who have oggled them for years. Altough some people tell me 16 is legal in New Jersey, I have my doubts. Here is a list of other hotties about to become fair game. I am sure Lima Beanz who owns a few of the Olsen twin movies, and several pictures already has their date marked.

Kaley Cuoco (8 Simple Rules) turns 18 on NOv 30

Amanda Bynes (What a Girl Wants, Big Fat Liar) turns 17 the first week of April.


Hilary Duff (Agent Cody Banks) will be sweet 16 in November.

For the record Avril is 18..not 17! I am told that is it tiny but tough!

Now is the time to get into line to legally kick some game!

"What's Going On?"

Just try to avoid the reality of war if you wanted to. Not that I am saying anyone should. Its just sometimes it would be nice to take a break from all the horrifying images and death tallies on the news these days. However the reality is that this WAR is going to be around for awhile and in our lives. For example the other day I wondered if Conan was a rerun momentarily forgetting, but of course Late Night was preempted for war coverage. Rick and I went to the Flyers game Monday, and about 4 or so continuous chants of USA! echoed through the FU center.

This war we are in is the first “Cell Phone and Internet” war. So what makes this different than the 1991 Gulf War is there is a lot more information out there, and depending on what your sources are it appears to be a different war. Some of it is just internet rumors I am sure because anyone can just write stuff on a web blog or website and make it sound like facts. So I think you should stop reading them!!!!!!! I love my readers reading Tucker’s World. Both of them

Most people talk about the war and you hear different variations of what is going on. You would think at time we are talking about different countries and different wars. First off the actual objective depends on who you ask. That kind of makes it harder to come together in such a trying time for America, when we can’t even agree why we are fighting.

People either say because we are preventing the next 9/11 by doing this. We have yet to find the dreaded weapons of mass destruction as far as I know. Many Americans (and the vast majority of New Jerseyans) believe we are out to kill Iraqis and steal all of their oil. If this is so than I am sure Bush would be impeached and the rest of the middle of east would reek havoc on the US. I have trouble buying that it is just about Oil.

Others think its time to just free the people of Iraq that have suffered so long under a tyrant rule of Saddam. Now these objective is separated by various different beliefs. Some people think it’s the time to end the suffering. Others thing we are going to pretend we are ending suffering, than turn around and kill everybody and steal their oil. Others on the other hand think Saddam is an awful person, and his treatment of innocent people, but would rather us as a nation turn a blind eye and worry about our economy problems. This out look is funny and ironic because it comes from many supposed human rights liberals. So basically what they are saying is let more people die over there for now and lets worry about getting money for ourselves!

Now what where hear on the news I am sure does not parallel what is actually going one. For one thing we are also being feed Iraqi propaganda. They seem to disagree on the amount of civilian casualties than we do. However, they still think they won the 1991 Gulf War. I have heard other things too which I would love to know more about. For example, about 48 hours ago or so we found a chemical warehouse. It was roughly the same size as a golf course, but I didn’t heard much after we actually found it. I mean just days ago the cover of the Daily News had a picture of U.S. Solider on the front and the headline was about the warehouse. Now I have heard nothing about it since than.

If you go to Drew’s blog TERMINUS and check out the BUZZ FLASH, you may have found an article about this. It mentioned that we already knew it was there. However it was just a written paragraph and served no evidence other than the author of the article telling me we knew about it already. What is odd is the fact that it was camouflaged and unable to be seen by planes and inspections. Why are the hiding this? I have no idea because I haven’t heard squat about in days. Maybe it was just filled with Dixie Chicks CDs or something.

What about the US missiles that supposedly landed in Iran ? I have heard there were a few people hurt. Do most the people of Iraq want us there? I see footage of food being distributed to them and they look damn happy. I have heard that many of them are just surrendering because they are hoping to be liberated so food and supplies wont be cut off from them. Also so the country, not Saddam could get money for Oil, unless of course we kill them and take it from them. At the same time I have heard (granted less) accounts of Iraqis resenting the US for being there.

Now the news is hyping the battle of Baghdad amongst on going sandstorms. If they did have chemical weapons we are going to find out really sound. Many people now think taking the city may be harder than originally thought. Could it be a blood bath? I have no idea! I pray that it isn't. (sorry Drew)

Is this war worth fighting or am I a victim of US propaganda? Even if it is you will feel even more guilty about it than you should, because the democrats are likely to exaggerate missteps and harp on the negative effects of the war in order to retake the white house. Some of the ultra-liberal human shields have already gotten a heavy dose of reality. Many of them after talking to the people of Iraq realized how horrible the people there have it and got the heck out of there.

It frustrating for having friends in this war. Its frustrating even though I know we don’t hear everything for a reason. However its really frustrating not knowing what is really going on over there. Most of all its frustrating trying to figure what to believe. Is our generation out to make it right? Are we just making promises that we know we will never keep?

Too many men, too many people making too many problems, and not much love to go round. Can't you see this is a land of confusion?

“Freedom of Ignorance”

A week back or so protestors decided to destroy a 9/11 memorial. I still get pissed when I think of it. I thought this was a horrendous display of confusion. First off many of the anti-war people out there are harping that Iraq had nothing to with 9/11, so than why did you destroy a 9/11 memorial if it has nothing to do with your cause? From what I read it was basically made up of pictures and flags. Do they even know what they are protesting?

Not to mention people who set up the memorial the loved ones on the tragic day. So whatever message was trying to be relayed was aimed at people who had nothing do to with the war. What was trying to be accomplished here? Why don’t they just piss on ground zero? Freedom of speech is one thing, and I know legally that’s all they were doing. Why not just rip pictures of Bush up or something? All the 9/11 memorial was doing was help healing the wounds and serving as a reminder of that day. The people who erected it might not even support the war. Regardless they are not the ones that made the decision to go.


That’s just a plain out as*hole move, and dare I say it…..is there such a thing….UNAMERICAN.

Regardless of what people feel have the right or wrong of the war. I certainly hope that U.S. Soldiers get the respect they deserve when they make it back home safely.

“Big Mac Attack”


I enjoy discussing current events with everyone, and comparing and contrasting views on the world. I respect people’s opinions. Within the past few months, I have engaged in many conversations about the war. I even have my doubts still not that if will succeed but if we should have gone in the first place.

So the other day I was discussing situation with a co-worker named Phil He told me he supported the campaign months after 9/11 but not the current war. However at one point he told me he thought that Saddam IS a threat to the US, but wouldn’t really do anything for about 5 years or so. I pointed out to him that would be merit for war (based on more hard facts obviously) but what difference would it make if he didn’t do anything for 5 years? Certainly now would be the time to attack if he that was the case. He defended his argument by saying that Saddam was old and in poor health (news to me about the health) and we should just let him die of natural causes instead of the SHOCK AND AWE. This would spare lifes.

Well of course it would be nice if Saddam wasn’t around since we don’t really have a beef with the people of Iraqi, just the government. However, his crazy ass son could just take the reigns, and I doubt Saddam would just nonchalantly give his power to the people on his deathbed.

So I was thinking that maybe if we just wanted him to die of health problems the entire campaign would have been different. Fridays SHOCK AND AWE would certainly been quite more amusing.

Picture this…The City Of Baghdad sits quietly at night. Silently a giant fuzzy purple, goggle eyed creature piloting a plane over head. He than proceeds to drop numerous small objects that descend upon the city, however instead of huge missiles falling thousands of Big Macs land on the ground. The launching of “freedom” fries follows this up.

Saddam is in the midst of an intimate evening with some gay sheep but is alarmed by the noise. Saddam walks out of his palace and sees burgers piling up on the ground. He picks up a Big Mac and snarls when he reads the made in America label.

“Blasted Americans!” Snarls the ruthless dictator.

Then something, happen something he would never except. The smell permeates his nostrils and he unravels the wrapper and sniffs the double beef paddy on a sesame seed bun. Hmmm.. He wonders out loud.

“It says made in America, but it sure smells delicious!” He takes a bite and instantly is addicted.

He turns to his higher-ups and declares that he will eat nothing but Big Macs for the rest of his life. However his advisors tell him that would be really dumb and even the mildly retarded camel could see that eating that stuff on a regular basis is unhealthy. Saddam then reminded him he was madman and blew the advisors face off.

Over time his arteries slowly clogged and his health waned. He didn’t know it but several American CIA agents were working undercover keeping a close eye on Saddam to see if he would have a massive heart attack and die. With the intelligence, they come up with a color, coded chart for the people of America to know level Saddam’s health status.

Blue ---- Saddam is suffering from severe diarrhea other wise known as the Hershey Squirts.

Green--- Diarrhea continues, accompanied by chronic flatulence and occasional stomach noises.

Yellow-- All previous symptoms in addition to massive weight gain, shortness of breath and increased stomach discomfort. Saddam demands his palace be filled with millions of plastic balls.

Orange: All previous symptoms, and severe heartburn, and numbing in the arm. Weight slightly over that of John Goodman. Saddam’s brainstarts to slip from all the fat blocking oxygen to his brain. He than starts soiling himself. He begins to think he is the Hamburgler resulting in confusion for his followers.

Red Alert: Saddam’s heart explodes like a baby milk factory and his head falls off. His lifeless corpse falls to the desert sand and sinks rapidly into the earth like the evil Trumpy in Pod People (maybe one person got that one).

The Iraqis start singing REM’s Shining Happy People, but that one of Saddam’s sons gets an American Lawyer to successfully sue McDonalds for killing his dad. He than gets the billions of dollars together to build up a more powerful regime. He is even more ruthless and when Iraqi TV isn’t saying how great he is they show Blame It On the Bellboy non-stop.
