Mark your calendars folks. Television's apocalypse begins July 15th on G4.

Quoted: Take, for instance, "Hurl," an eating-and-regurgitating competition in which contestants gorge themselves on everything from chicken pot pies to peanut butter sandwiches, then get strapped into spinning contraptions -- whoever vomits last wins.

Personal accountability, the latest victim of No Child Left Behind.

Quoted: At issue is a memo sent to high school teachers Thursday -- the day grades were due for seniors -- saying staff will not be allowed to mark students as failing because of attendance. Students received grades for the third and fourth marking periods plus a final exam, and previously were required to pass at least two of the three. That rule also was eliminated. Teachers were told passing grades in the district's computer system would be locked, preventing staff from lowering them for any reason.

Of course GRPS officials characterize attendance issues a little differently. According to them Grand Rapids public schools are just teeming with geniuses:

Quoted: Committee chairwoman Amy McGlynn said some students "don't need to be in a seat for six hours every day in order to understand the content. We need to look at how long kids really need to be in school. The end process is more important than how you get there."

You stay classy Fox News.

Quoted: A fist bump? A pound? A terrorist fist jab? The gesture everyone seems to interpret differently. We’ll show you some interesting body communication and find out what it really says.

For a good tree bringeth not forth corrupt fruit; neither doth a corrupt tree bring forth good fruit. For every tree is known by his own fruit. For of thorns men do not gather figs, nor of a bramble bush gather they grapes. "

Quoted: As members of the Democratic National Committee's Rules and Bylaws panel voted in favor of the measures, some supporters of Hillary Clinton's White House bid rose from their seats and began to shout “Don’t steal my vote!” and “Let’s go, McCain!” Several paced the back of the ballroom, yelling at the committee members and chanting “Denver! Denver!” – the site of this summer's Democratic presidential nominating convention. When Barack Obama’s name was mentioned, boos filled the room.

How any Democrats can still vote for this woman is beyond me.

Quoted: "My husband did not wrap up the nomination in 1992 until he won the California primary somewhere in the middle of June, right? We all remember Bobby Kennedy was assassinated in June in California. I don’t understand it."

Its time to invade Canada. This makes me furious. I hope Pennsylvania is paying attention.

Quoted: Mr. Brodie, apparently seeking to play down the potential impact on Canada, told the reporters the threat was not serious, and that someone from Ms. Clinton's campaign had even contacted Canadian diplomats to tell them not to worry because the NAFTA threats were mostly political posturing. The Canadian Press cited an unnamed source last night as saying that several people overheard the remark.The news agency quoted that source as saying that Mr. Brodie said that someone from Ms. Clinton's campaign called and was "telling the embassy to take it with a grain of salt." The story was followed by CTV's Washington bureau chief, Tom Clark, who reported that the Obama campaign, not the Clinton's, had reassured Canadian diplomats.

Clinton's campaign isn't denying this, they're just saying "What? We can't help it if people get the wrong impression from this photo.", despite the fact they they already tried this once with that "sworn in on the Quran" e-mail junk earlier in her campaign.

Quoted: The picture, which appeared on the Drudge Report this morning, was attributed to sources within the Clinton campaign – although the Web site did not reveal how many, or who, might have received the photo. In a statement, Obama’s campaign manager, David Plouffe, said Clinton’s campaign was engaged in “shameful, offensive fear-mongering,” though he did not point to any proof beyond the original item that appeared on Matt Drudge’s blog. “This is part of a disturbing pattern that led her county chairs to resign in Iowa, her campaign chairman to resign in New Hampshire,” said Plouffe. “and it’s exactly the kind of divisive politics that turns away Americans of all parties and diminishes respect for America in the world."
