– I don’t mean to alarm anyone, but this snake can open doors.

– Jon Gosselin killed the Ed Hardy brand, according to Ed Hardy. I’m so glad we got that out of the way.

– Here’s a story that sounds like what might happen if the producers of the Saw series made a Lifetime Original Movie:

A teenage girl beheaded her father with a bush knife after he raped her at their home in Papua New Guinea, a report said Monday, with community leaders protecting her, saying the man deserved to die.

The Post-Courier newspaper said the 18-year-old chopped her father’s head clean off after he repeatedly raped her last Tuesday night in their village in the poverty-stricken Pacific nation’s Western Highlands.

The report cited a pastor as saying the father, in his mid-40s, had three other children and raped his daughter when they were alone in the house after the mother and the other siblings visited relatives.

Pastor Lucas Kumi said the man went to his daughter’s room in the night and raped her repeatedly.

“The father wanted to rape his daughter again in the morning inside the house and that was when the young girl picked up the bush knife and chopped her father’s head off,” he said.

Community leaders are now refusing to hand the girl over to police, vowing to protect her.

I can’t really add anything to that, and I’m sure as hell not going to snark about it.
