• I am 45% Tortured Artist - I found this test on Jafabrit's blog. She's only 17% tortured artist and hasn't come to the realization that everyone is an idiot yet. I think my percentage was higher because I realize that everyone that isn't an artist is an idiot.

• Tom Cruise and South Park - Tom Cruise seems to be in the news for all the wrong reasons lately. It is reported that the actor and scientologist, Cruise has threatened to not promote his upcoming film (Mission Impossible 3) if Comedy Central aired an episode of South Park that poked fun of the "religion". Viacom (makers of MI3) is the parent company of Comedy Central (makers of South Park). Scientology seems to give people an attitude and rob them of a sense of humor.
