They're popping up....
Due to the fact that Michael Jackson was 99% plastic when he died, he's being melted down into Lego blocks so children can play with him for a change.

REEEEEEEALLY tasteless joke!
This is so totally tasteless... but y'gotta admit that this is comedy gold we're mining here!
Right!
So, Farrah Fawcett dies. She gets up to the Pearly Gates and there's a huge crowd there to welcome her. St. Peter says "Head right in!"
A crowd of angels escorts her in and takes her right to the Celestial Throne.
God stands up, comes down and hugs her, and says "My child, you were a wonderful entertainer. I'm sorry you had a painful end, but all your suffering is now behind you. You may have anything you wish."
Farrah says "Anything?"
God says "Anything. What would you like as your heavenly reward?"
Farrah thinks a moment and says "I want all the children in the world to be safe."
And God says "Fine!" and killed Michael Jackson.
REEEEEEEALLY tasteless joke!

Homeland Security, by any other name...
...would be just as bad. The original Department of Homeland Security was something from Germany in the 30s and early 40s, with the “Abteilung der Heimat-Sicherheit” ("Department of Homeland Security"). What I hadn't stopped to consider was that the Soviet "Komitet Gosudarstvennoy Bezopasnosti” (better known as the KGB) translates as "Committee for State Security." There's a lovely short piece about this obsession with "security" here.

Very good choral piece
"I Bless the Rains Down in Africa" done by Perpetuum Jazzile, a Slovenian jazz choir, who do a very nice simulation of a rainstorm using their hands before they start singing.
