Jesse Ventura becomes a "troofer"
James Lileks, buzz.mn
Not to bellyflop into the touchy realm of partisan matters, but I think theres broad consensus including those who call themselves independent that Jesse Ventura has completed his long, fascinating morph into an utter maroon.
This didnt get much press around here, but while your host was on vacation, the former governor joined the ranks of 9/11 deniers. Having read some books and applied his piercing incisive intellect to the inherent qualities of structural design, he now believes that the destruction of the World Trade Center was an inside job, and thinks that the corporate media is covering up the truth.
Apparently the energy expended in this endeavor was sufficient to burn his hair off. Either that or hes reverted to Bald Jesse to indicate he's back in Statesman Mode, because no one took Pirate Jesse seriously.
