the 941

We’ve really been struggling with what to say about the late Jerry Falwell. These folks weren’t.

+ “Rest in peace, you blowhard.” [slate]
+ RE: Those Westboro Baptist Church people announcing they’re going to protest at Falwell’s funeral: “Holy crap… Falwell, Phelps, Falwell, Phelps… whose side do you take in this fight? And I had no idea that Falwell was wrapped up in Free-Willism. You think you know a guy, huh? You get a good hate going and then you find out he had a soft spot for killer whales. Sure makes you think.” [slog]
+ “Bigoted religious phony Jerry Falwell went to hell today. Voices of American Sexuality collected some of the stupidest things he said while he was befouling the living world…” [boing boing]
+ Our favorite: “Falwell talks about his first time.” [bb]
+ Oh, and here’s where he talks about how, on second thought, feminists, gays, lesbians and ACLU weren’t responsible for 9/11. [cnn]

Onto other questions…
+ Is Coppola directing Senate hearings now? [poho]
+ How can a sprinter without legs have an advantage? [nytimes]
+ Wha wha Waldorf in the Sota? [ht]
+ Wait, she has four security cameras around her house and you still tried to pull this? [ht]
+ Has there ever been a better day around the Giro Helmet offices? [cnn]
+ Does it get uglier than this? [metafilter]
