Stuff that didn't quite make Bill's Bites. Continuously updated, newest items at the top.

Bill's Bites --- 2006.10.07              Soft Bites -- 2006.10.07

Gonna try a little experiment here and see how it works out. Sometimes as I surf the web I run across something that's more "human interest" than "hard news," more "entertainment" than "news" at all, and I have to stop and consider "Is that worth pushing everything on Bill's Bites" down the page to make room for, and maybe having to move something more important "below the fold?" "Sure it's a cute cartoon but George is still on dial-up. Will he appreciate it enough to justify the download time?" "So, really, what do baseball and football have to do with the price of bullets in Beirut?" Solution(?): A separate post for "Page 2 or 3" stuff that I don't want to clutter the front page with but don't want to ignore completely. Enter "Soft Bites." Is this my answer? Bark at me.

Video: Outrageously outrageous Chevrolet commercial!

The Freepers are trying to kick up some dust about this and now it’s migrated to the Corner, so we might as well post it.

The Katrina stuff isn’t that odd; it’s followed by scenes of housebuilding to show, I guess, the indomitable American spirit. The Nixon farewell is a bit strange, but hey: liberals buy cars, too, guys. For some of us, a slice of cheesecake or beefcake leaning enticingly against the hood might be enough to pique our interest in the product. For others, archival footage of a Republican leaving the White House in disgrace might do the trick.

Sex sells. ...

Video: The most insane political ad ever

For some reason, TV stations won’t run it. Why?

Because it refers to old men masturbating?

Or because it refers to teenage girls watching porn with probes hooked up you-know-where?

Let the word go forth: nothing has ever topped this, and nothing ever will.

Click the Vietnamese prostitute to watch. ...

UK news dominated by assimilation troubles

Veilgate’s been raging there for the past few days but this morning it finally got knocked off the front page. Here’s what replaced it: ...

Thanks to our pal Brian of London for scanning that. The top story before Veilgate was the curious case of Alexander Omar Basha, the Muslim policeman exempted from having to guard the Israeli embassy. Initially, it was thought that he’d asked for the exemption on “moral grounds” — which, to their credit, even the Muslim Council of Britain denounced as an abdication of his duty. ...

Video flashback: Rosie O’Donnell as a retarded woman
Allahpundit

The earlier Rosie video was well received so I thought I’d toss a little more chum in the water. It’s a quickie montage from the 2005 retard masterpiece, “Riding the Bus with My Sister.”

She’s more covincing in this role than in “Nip/Tuck.” I wonder why. ...
