The warrior’s life is particularly suited to Zen study because it demands vitality, courage, and "death energy--the readiness to confront death at any moment." --Suzuki Shosan (1467-1568)

THOUSANDS of new MG Rover cars stand rusting at two disused airfields — a sad memorial to the fallen motor giant.
Some of the vehicles — worth £100million — have been stockpiled for months, depriving the firm of much-needed cash.
Administrators selling off MG Rover’s assets have to decide who owns the 10,000 cars at two Oxfordshire sites in Upper Heyford and Chipping Warden.
Distribution company Axial, which owns the airfields, says it is owed £1million by MG Rover, and has refused to release the vehicles until it has been paid.
But workers sacked from the firm’s Longbridge plant say they should get the cars.
The plot thickens. The conspirators -- Gilles Duceppe as Cassius, Jack Layton as Trebonius and Stephen Harper as Brutus -- have agreed that Caesar must be murdered so they can get his job, or as they put it: "for the good of the people."
Caesar, the veteran Paul Martin whose performance as Prime Minister has been called "hilarious" by just about everyone, has gotten wind of the plot and will address the nation tonight, just before Survivor.
Friends and countrymen. An election is afoot.
She's been seen in grilled cheese and even in my kitchen curtains; now people are claiming they she her in a salt stain at a Chicago underpass. This lady sure does get around doesn't she?
Before we even turned on the news or opened the paper this morning, we knew that the Vatican had chosen a new pope. How? Well, as we were making toast for our breakfast, a puff of white smoke issued from the toaster. Then we were amazed to find what was surely a sign from on high: a piece of toast emblazoned with the unmistakable image of Cardinal Joseph Ratzinger, the new Pope Benedict XVI.
While I was going over the line, I noticed that paintings by Dutch master Mondriaan are all about lines (at least his later work). And there I was shown how to create your own piece of lines, based on your personality. Here is My Mondriaan.
Autopsy means "see for yourself". It is a special surgical operation, performed by specially-trained physicians, on a dead body. Its purpose is to learn the truth about the person's health during life, and how the person really died.
There are many advantages to getting an autopsy. Even when the law does not require it, there is always something interesting for the family to know. In doing around 700 autopsies, I have always found something worth knowing that wasn't known during life. Even at major hospitals, in about one case in four we find major disease which was unknown in life. Giving families the explanations they want is one of the most satisfying things that I do.
So how do you do an autopsy?
The word just got out that there's white smoke coming from the Vatican.
This means that the new Pope has been elected. This comes as a surprise, because it usually takes a lot more than just two days. And especially for you I have a photo of the new Pope.
What ideas will come from the mind of this new pope?
"A good song should make you wanna tap your foot and get with your girl. A great song should destroy cops and set fire to the suburbs. I'm only interested in writing great songs." -Tom Morello
The Canadian Armed Forces unit Joint Task Force 2 is a shadowy, highly skilled counter-terrorist force of undetermined size, based somewhere near Ottawa with an anonymous commanding officer.
And that's the way the military wants to keep it.
It is a highly specialized unit – a scalpel, not a hammer.

Eleven years after his death, Kurt Cobain's hometown has finally embraced the legacy of the late grunge icon. Last week, the title of one of Nirvana's signature hits, "Come as You Are," was added to the "Welcome to Aberdeen" sign on the anniversary of Cobain's April 5, 1994, suicide.
"I think it's a good idea, and it's about time," Kurt's grandfather, Leland Cobain, told Aberdeen, Washington's local newspaper, The Daily World. "I drive by there every day and look for it. I have been waiting for it to go up."
It's hard to resist but the message is clear: do not press the red button. But still, you do...

Car enthusiasts love to sit around drinking beer and arguing the merits of their favorite vehicles. Ultimately, what we all want to determine is: What's cool? What cars really get attention at a show or on the street? What cars make their drivers seem cool? We polled our staff and contributors, whose prejudices have resulted in a fascinating take of the nature of automotive coolness. We whittled their selections down to a highly subjective list of the 100 Coolest Cars, presented here in descending order. Let the arguments begin!

Ever since prehistoric man first scraped a seashell across his cheek so prehistoric woman would let him dance cheek-to-cheek, shaving has been a part of the male experience.

Today’s Tech Editor Corey Greenberg is here with the latest trend in male grooming that promises a better shave by going back to the old school.

The bet was who could eat more McDonalds Cheeseburgers. It was a very silly thing to do at eleven o' clock on a Wednesday (or anytime really). Ben and I went to the McDonalds on 34th street and 3rd avenue, looked over the dollar menu and decided what to get. The nice lady took our order. Then she did a double take and asked us to repeat it. “Ten cheeseburgers please, we’ll be back for ten more soon. We don’t want them to get cold.” She looked at us with her mouth open for a second then started laughing and talked to the other ladies in Spanish. They all looked at us and smiled broadly. “We have a bet, we want to know which of us can eat more cheeseburgers. They only cost a dollar each, so we figured why not?” She placed our order and soon we got a tray piled with ten cheeseburgers and two Coca-Colas.
The Legendary NWA Quiz !
I have always been a fan of gangsta rap music, particularly the lyrics. In the mid-nineties I knew a couple of guys who spent their time passing lyrics back and forth to one another as a test to see who could write the next line of a song. I always thought that was the kind of test I'd like to take. So back when the Phat Phree was downloadable, I submitted a list of questions to test everyone’s knowledge of the greatest gangsta rap album of all time, N.W.A.'s Straight Outta Compton.
Charlie took the questions and created an interactive quiz that would shoot you in the face if you fronted. Now after a further Redux the quiz is available for the Phat Phree community. Good luck, punk
A man got on an elevator. When he entered, there was a blonde already inside who greeted him with a bright, "T-G-I-F."
He smiled at her and replied, "S-H-I-T."
She looked puzzled and repeated, "T-G-I-F," more slowly.
He again answered, "S-H-I-T."
The blonde was trying to keep it friendly, so she smiled her biggest smile, and said as sweetly as possibly, "T-G-I-F."
The man smiled back to her and once again, "S-H-I-T."
The exasperated blonde finally decided to explain. "'T-G-I-F' means
Thank Goodness It's Friday.
Get it, duuhhh?"
The man answered, "'S-H-I-T' means 'Sorry, Honey, It's Thursday'"
