The one with evil Spider-Man

First of all, if you've never made herb-roasted chicken, I highly recommend it. It's tasty goodness and not too hard to make. Tying together the chicken's feet before cooking it was a little ... umm, awkward. But not enough to keep me from roasting and eating it.

What's been going on in the news you ask? Well, let me tell you:

Spider-Man has apparently taken to robbing comic book stores. Spidey supporters say the story is a fabrication, but J. Jonah Jameson stands by it.

A gang of thieves in Britain got away with $43.5 million after robbing a cash-sorting company. They kidnapped a manager and held his family hostage to gain his cooperation. Unfortunately, in this case, the manager turned out not to be Harrison Ford, and they got away with it. But authorities are already adding extra security to Las Vegas casinos for when the robbers get around to watching "Ocean's Eleven."

The iTunes Web site hit its 1 billionth download with a Michigan man's download of a Coldplay song. Millions of other people breathed a sigh of relief and immediately began downloading the Kelly Clarkson, Britney Spears and Ashley Simpson songs they'd been holding off on for weeks.

Things in Iraq just keep getting better.

In Nigeria, Christians have decided to show that Muslims aren't the only ones who can get a good riot started.

In related news, Muhammad and Jesus are totally pissed at their followers.

And finally, why did the chicken cross the road?
To bite you.

1. You've stuffed a turkey but you think that tying a chicken's feet together is awkward?

2. I'd just like to say that I'm very happy that we declared victory in Iraq and had it totally secure over two years ago. Imagine how terrible it would be right now if that hadn't actually happened and it was just political smoke and mirrors.

You tied together the chicken's feet or its legs? I don't think I've ever seen chicken feet on the birds sold in grocery stores. Or, are you hunting these days? :-)

As long as we're being picky, the iTunes Music Store isn't a Web site.

And of course the billionth download would be Coldplay. Statistically speaking, it couldn't have been anything else.
