Three suspects have been arrested for burning down 9 churches in Alabama. All three were college students. One of them says that the fires were "a joke" that "got out of hand". Uh, yeah. Hilarious joke. If they're convicted, lock them up and throw away the key for a long, long time.

On April Fool's Day, our local Socrates Café had an interesting discussion around the question of what makes something funny.
Man, this Keith Henson character is a fearsome dude. He was convicted of a crime, fled the state, has been on the lam for 6 years, and was finally caught and thrown in jail, with bail initially set at half a million dollars. What heinous act won him such a nefarious reputation?
Fanaticism and oppression work! The latest editions of the comic strip Opus are being censored by at least 25 newspapers around the country.
Yesterday I inadvertently offended the Sb Overlords in an interesting way. Since I came on board 2½ years ago we've had a series of handlers or "community managers" who have all been competent, charming women. Punning a little, I have fondly called them my Ovarylords.
So after they've thrown away the key and long, long time has passed, will they go digging through the landfill to find the key? ;)
Where's your sense of humor?
They were a gang... who set fire... to churches. And what was the gang's name?
The Aristocrats!
Heh. In Poland, quite a lot of fires were caused by... voluntary firemen. Some of them were idiots who laid fire and then ran to put it down. They did it either for money (the first N voluntary firemen get paid), some of them for fame. How more stupid can people get?
According to Dembski's weblog, it's actually the fault of Panda's Thumb:

DaveScot continues to prove his utter idiocy on a daily basis. I can't believe even Dembski hasn't seen the embarrassment this cretin is causing him.
I hope someone is preserving the content on uncommondescent, just in case the inanity gets disappeared. DaveScot's original tirade is nothing. His reaction to criticism is the most convincing indictment of his mental state. His comments speak for themselves. If people like that ever held power in this country, I would flee immediately.
