As most of you know by now, the George W Bush Sewage Plant proposal--news that SFist broke way back in March (yay, us!)--is making the rounds all across this great country of ours. And after landing on FOX News last week, the steady stream of hate mail makes for a fantastic read. Here are two of our favorite,most thought-provoking rebuttals so far. Ahem:
Compelling television's loss is the bargain bin's gain. KRON 4 is up for sale. Again. Amid a "high level of interest," it seems, Young Broadcasting plans on possibly peddling the network to the highest bidder. KRON 4, once the golden child as the Bay Area's NBC affiliate, was sold eight years ago and turned into an independent station. After seeing much of the KRON 4 news team jump ship - like Pete Wilson (RIP), Wendy Tokuda, and wet dream-inducing Ross Palumbo - the place was renovated into the Fox News Corp's MyNetwork TV. Ta-da. (Really, the station could have saved itself if they had planned a local reality show on the lives of crystal meth-infused trannies. We're not kidding.)
What's on the cell phones of those who survived the recent tiger attack?
Anyways, Sean saw this, failed to see any humor in it, and made his offer to be the money bags to everyone's favorite "hunky-hipster attorney". Again, we don't know if this is true or what the what is with the story. It could be a joke, a crazy rumor, or something Sean and Matt jokingly talked about while drinking some wine and discussing the finer points of Costas Gravas's L'Aveu.
Looks like we're in a heapin' load of trouble as those who like to get outraged at us are outraged again. Or, at least something the Archbishop of San Francisco did. Last weekend, while conducting mass, the Archbishop was giving communion when up came two people "wearing bizarre makeup and costumes, including one dressed in a parody of a nun's habit." Hmm…couldn’t that also describe the Pope? Anyways, the "offenders" in question, of course, were members of the Sister of Perpetual Indulgence. So Archbishop George Niederauer gave them communion.

You know that woman who was a Madame in the DC area who threatened to release all the names and info on her client list? Well, she just went out and released all the names and info on her client list. In an e-mail to a Washington D.C. radio station, the Madame, Deborah Jeane Palfrey, said she gave everything to "what I believe to be one of the most reputable and respected investigative news organizations in the country, to assist me with my needs." We somehow don't think she meant NPR.
A thoughtful reader sent us this link from racist Asianweek columnist Kenneth Eng's interview on Fox News with John Gibson. Can we just pass along the following quotes?
