POPSBoobs on the Street Images! STICK 'EM UP! These gravity defying ads for DTACK - Adhesive tape, use extreme examples for the tapes use in hilarious ways. As funny as it may seem, the humour is also very relevant in today's age defying conscious society. We think perhaps the male version of the ad may have been a little extreme! by Andy G

POPSWhy Americans Should Never Be Allowed To Travel A woman called to make reservations, "I want to go from Chicago to Hippopotamus, New York" The agent was at a loss for words. Finally, the agent: "Are you sure that's the name of the town?" "Yes, what flights do you have?" replied the customer. After some searching, the agent came back with, "I'm sorry, ma'am, I've looked up every airport code in the country and can't find a Hippopotamus anywhere." The customer retorted, "Oh don't be silly. Everyone knows where it is. Check your map!" The agent scoured a map of the state of New York and finally offered, "You don't mean Buffalo, do you?" "That's it! I knew it was a big animal!"

POPSSigns you're getting old... "I just can't drink the way I used to" replaces "I'm never going to drink that much again". I'm not that old...but 'tis true compared to how I was last year...no more downing 6 pints of beer in a row for me...

POPSCoke man punched out by Pepsi delivery man It was classified as common assault even though the Coke man's nose got broken. Coke don't want to talk about it, and there have been no charges laid. Seems if you're a Pepsi man, you can break someone's nose, in front of many witnesses, and only be described as a known suspect. A man who pushed a clerk while stealing a donut was charged with a felony, and given $ 100,000 bail. perfect sense.

POPSAquafina Bottled from the Tap I think this is funny, especially in light of those people who insist that bottled water tastes better and is healthier. Personally, I only buy bottled water when I'm out and won't be able to get something to drink for a while.

POPSThe arrests begin at DNC So, not giving their names is considered a minor infraction and yet they were arrested for it. Denver Joint Information Center would not give out information, shouldn't they be arrested under the same rule?

POPSWhen English and Spanish Collide Scoop. *LOL* I love it when people talk funny. It's so endearing. I don't speak Spanish myself, though I would love to. All I can say is the Spanish word for beer, which is cerveza. That's all you really need to know. :)

POPSThe Economics Of Prostitution Edlund and Korn admit that spouses and streetwalkers aren't exactly alike. Wives, in truth, are superior to whores in the economist's sense of being a good whose consumption increases as income rises--like fine wine. This may explain why prostitution is less common in wealthier countries. But the implication remains that wives and whores are--if not exactly like Coke and Pepsi--something akin to champagne and beer. The same sort of thing. As with Becker, a key differentiator in Edlund and Korn's model is reproductive sex. Wives can offer it, whores can not. Why do hookers make so much money? According to data assembled- "Combine this with the fact that marriage can be an important source of income for women, and it follows that prostitution must pay better than other jobs to compensate for the opportunity cost of forgone-marriage market earnings,

POPSWil S**t Hapen? This smacks of petty paranoia. Comments at the source offered some creative solutions: "waterguns full of bleach or urine, just like releasing poisonous snakes, just like the balloons filled with hydrochloric acid... this is just police fantasy. There is a big difference between being prepared for a situation and preparing for a fictional tactic that you came up with yourself" "Carry empty buckets and fill them on-site. Ex-Lax helps. " I can see it now: "Is that a bucket of feces?" "No, officer. It's a firkin of feces." "Oh. Okay, then."

POPSFrivilous court cases While researching for a writing project on Victimology I found these 'Stella awards' named after the woman that succesfully won a lawsuit against McDonalds. (checkout the website for more details and other lawsuits)

POPSIdentity Politics — It's What's for Dinner In Denver For a campaign that promised post-racial politicking, its candidate and surrogates haven't been above race-baiting at the drop of a hat. This goes hand in hand with Obama's repeated baseless smears of John McCain as a racist. Emil Jones just followed Obama's lead, as Obama has followed his. Post racial = everybody is a racist, so the word no longer has any meaning?

POPSFlood victims say FEMA is doing a heckuva job Since FEMA received mega-press for it's perceived failures during the Hurricane, it seemed fair to post a clip that gives the organization some praise for doing a good job. However, I believe the magnitude and circumstances are entirely different. I am still amazed by a government/Country who will so willingly hand out millions of dollars to its citizens who have lost homes and property in these *natural* disasters.
