1. My son just texted me: "the world just got a new urinal today"

He knows emptying my bladder on Cheney’s grave is on my bucket list.

2. There's gonna be a long line by his grave of people waiting their turn.

Hell, it could turn into a regular festival in memory of him.

Think about it: Concessionaires could have a good day selling merch there --selling little plastic urinals and toilets with his face in the splash area, vials of salt labelled "ANTHRAX", a little handbook titled "How to bring public ruin, for fun and profit to any who attempts to reveals the truth about your lies" (Check with Scot Ritter for more information), my favorite for young capitalists: "How to get your company an $800,000,000 non-compete contract by waging an unprovoked war," and, of course, an assortment of "Enhanced Interrogation Techniques" handbooks, illustrated and including muffled audios of grunts, screams and whispered pleas for mercy.

Gosh, an enterprising young man could make his fortune at the gravesite.

But I listened this morning to the MSNBC pundits talking about what a good guy he was. I didn't -- and won't -- check out CNN or, god help me, FOX to see what wonderful things they have to say about him.
