The House of Representatives today passed a bill to set rules on government eavesdropping and wiretapping. At least, that’s what President Bush heard through his headphones in an adjacent, soundproof room.

The bill now goes to the Senate, where the White House will be monitoring its progress. In fact, you might say they will be watching and listening to its every move…



Warner Bros. announced this week that Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows, the 7th and final book in the series, will be adapted into 2 movies. They will be shot simultaneously, but released a year apart so young fans can save up enough money for a 2nd movie ticket.

J.K. Rowling and her publisher are proud that the 2 movies should be able to keep more of the original story, and encouraged fans to support the idea of the 2 films buy buying a second copy of the book.

Rowling says she won’t see the films, because she’s been blinded by wealth.



Gulfstream Aerospace has announced their newest, largest, fastest private jet: the G650, which, starting at $58 million, can fly over 8,000 miles, and reach a speed of almost 700 mph. So, not only are the rich getting richer. They are getting richer, faster.

The roomier G650’s cabin is 8 ½ feet wide and 6’5” high. It can accommodate 18 passengers seated or 8 lying down. And if you’re with a high-powered executive, you’ll be more likely to be accommodated, the more willing you are to lie down.

Their marketing department says this jet is ideal for heads of state, CEO’s, or any man with a very small penis.
