5. Whoever took that pic of *...
A little high on the contrast and the digital camera's saturation level is off. (the bulk of photojournalism these days is exclusiverly done with digital cameras.)

4. 2004 was the "Year of the Monkey".
I know because it's my year. A few good things happened to me and my fellow monkeys.

Just cause bush is a chimp..he was born The Year of the Dog.

Whatever..bush is the anti-Christ.

We're going into Year of the Rooster!

6. haha, too bad you're wrong. On the other hand
Something about Bush's stupid mangled "Texan terminology" and "Roosters coming back bein' sherrif and ruling the roost, like we say in Texas" has a lovely foreboding for Bush.

...heeeeeeeere they come to snuff the rooooster, oh yeah..
