Dept of WTF: PETA now in the chocolate business.

There probably aren't too many U.S. troops in Afghanistan who would pass up the opportunity to bite Osama bin Laden's head off, and soon, thanks to PETA, they can. Following news reports that chocolates are almost as hard to find in Afghanistan as an oceanfront, a longtime PETA supporter and chocolatier is making special chocolates embossed with the head of bin Laden himself. And there are other pluses -- the chocolates are dairy-free, which means that no cows were harmed to make them, and anyone, including lactose-intolerant soldiers, can eat them.

"These delicious dark chocolate 'bin Laden Bites' give a whole new meaning to the adage 'Revenge is sweet,'" says PETA President Ingrid E. Newkirk. "Our troops deserve a chuckle, and PETA's vegan chocolates will give them that as well."

PETA has its own bone to pick with bin Laden. In addition to bin Laden's murder of humans, one of his sons wrote a memoir in which he revealed that his father gassed the younger bin Laden's two dogs in a chemical-warfare experiment. Also, countless animals suffered and died of starvation and dehydration when their guardians were killed in the attacks on the World Trade Center, leaving the animals without care. Many more animals suffered and died from exposure to toxic fumes and from other causes when apartments in the "hot zone" were sealed off for many days with dogs, cats, companion rats and mice, guinea pigs, gerbils, rabbits, and fish remaining inside. In memory of them all, PETA is arranging to have extra chocolates made to be sold stateside.

And this prevents cruelty to animals precisely HOW?

I confess last night I went to a bar where the martinis are chilled with liquid nitrogen. I didn't have one of those, but holy shit those guys are dedicated to their craft.

When you think of the world's most prolific pot smokers, certain names come to mind: Snoop, Cheech and Chong, Willie Nelson.

How about Irvin Rosenfeld?

The 56-year-old Fort Lauderdale stockbroker will put his name among the greats when he sets a world record tomorrow for weed consumption while lighting up his 115,000th joint.

The best part is that it's all legal.

"Yep, provided by Uncle Sam," Rosenfeld told NBCMiami.com. "They grow it for me, I find that quite ironic."

Rosenfeld's pot has been provided by the government since 1982, when he became a patient in the Federal Drug Administration's Investigational New Drug Program. Grown on a farm on the campus of the University of Mississippi, the weed is delivered to a local pharmacy where Rosenfeld gets it by the bushel.

Rosenfeld suffers from a rare bone disorder called multiple congenital cartilaginous exostoses, which causes severe pain, alleviated by a healthy dose of ganja.

He's been getting 300 joints every 25 days for the past 27 years, and said he smokes between 10 and 12 per day.

Truckers Delight animated video clip directed by newcomer wunderkid J�r�mie P�rin who takes the song's title (a tribute to those little pleasures that the lonely truck- driver indulges himself in) and takes it to the next level. Think Spielberg's Duel + Russ Meyer's Faster Pussycat Kill Kill! and Marc Dorcel's wildest fantasies. All warped into an 8-bit Sega era style graphic. And this clumsy and somehow pretentious description doesn't even come close to what you're about to see: it's tr�s funny,tr�s dirty, -tr�s sexy. Tr�s Flairs indeed.

I couldn't sleep last night because it's so hot here. Not helped by the mosquitoes which proceeded to bite me and buzz around my head because somebody else left my door open which has no fly screen and my mosquito net kept getting tangled in my tossing and turning.

Don't know if this was posted anywhere, but here's a short piece on the guy who allegedly shot the vid. He's seriously in need of a life, when you look at how much planning went into his 15 minutes of fame:

Quote:

Michael David Barrett, the man who allegedly secretly filmed ESPN reporter Erin Andrews nude in various hotel rooms, stalked her around the U.S. to do so.

That's according to federal investigators building their case against him.

The feds claim that Michael Barrett called seven hotels in Columbus, Ohio from January 28-29, 2008, trying to find out where the reporter would be staying.

After striking gold with a Columbus Hotel, the peephole perv got a room next to hers, altered the door of her room and secretly shot the Erin Andrews tape.

Barrett then got on the Internet to send the Erin Andrews nude video to his email account. Bada bing, you've got yourself some authorized, creepy footage.

Michael Barrett is Erin Andrews' alleged peeping tom.

Fast forward to July. He called 14 hotels in Milwaukee, Wisc., and found where she was staying. Again, he checked in, altered the peephole and shot video.

In September, Barrett called a hotel, located Andrews' reservation, requested a room next door and the next day, altered the peephole and filmed her nude.

The email he sent the video to: handsfouryou@yahoo.com. Eww. He also posted the tape on Google video account, calling it "Erin Andrews Naked Butt."

Classy guy, that Michael Barrett.

Two questions: 1. Does this guy have a job? 2. Why would multiple hotels possibly reveal that a semi-famous guest is staying there, and in what room?!

A statement from Barrett's lawyer reads: "Mr. Barrett would like to express deep regret for the circumstances that caused the issuance of the charges against him today. It is his hope that this matter can be resolved as soon as possible."
