The angels cheer: "They killed Kenny!"
No, I don't normally watch "South Park". I'm not sure why - we used to have an awesome "South Park" pinball machine here in the Labs. Anyway, the buzz was that yesterday's "South Park" was going to be a very special one - and it was. Andrew Leonard tells all over at Salon: "But wait! Kenny isn't dead! Doctors manage to resuscitate him! With a feeding tube! He's in a 'persistent vegetative state.' Heaven is doomed!... The feeding tube is pulled. 'They killed Kenny,' the angels cheer! Heaven is saved, as Kenny, using a gold-plated PSP given to him by Peter, defeats the forces of Satan."
Brilliant. Tasteless? Sure, but it's a breath of fresh air after the recent media circus.
And coincidentally Kenny popped up again today, over at Boing Boing: trench art from Iraq. (See thumbnail.) Full size pic at Flickr.
