Quotes for the Week:


"I went to Portland; I saw Portland; I'm staying in Witchita" - Winston Brooks, former candidate for school superintendent of Portland's God-awful school system announcing that he's bowing out of the running. Two others preceded him in saying "holy shit" upon seeing the train wreck that is our school system and swiftly returning home.

"What the fuck is that smell?" - The guy that found Layne Staley's already decomposed corpse yesterday. Staley, who spent more time inventing new ways to ingest heroine than he did in treatment, was the front man for grunge band Alice in Chains. Fans mourn the singer's death, but all agree that if he had to OD, he should have done it about five years ago when AiC still had momentum.

"Quick! Hide the duct tape" - Catholic priests around the country as the child-molesting scandals have opened the door to scrutiny of the Vatican, and become the basis for a new generation of child-molesting priest jokes.

"Who's at the door?" - Robert Blake before his arrest for the murder of his wife almost a year ago. Blake and his bodyguard were arrested outside the Blake household last week
