  The Raw Story | Dirty jokes
One of the members of the group started to make a slightly off-color joke in reference to a story of his own dating life with which he had just been regaling us.
The person telling the story and I had been out socially several times before, and thus he knew that I would not find his joke offensive, would think it was funny, and would likely respond with a similar ribaldry of my own.
When we act as though sex is somehow intrinsically bad for women—as though everything from pornography to dirty jokes offends all womanly sensibilities and should only be aired in locker rooms and cigar smoke-filled back rooms—we perpetuate a well-intentioned and watered-down version of the same chauvinism that says women can’t handle working outside the home.

 Portland Mercury - Theater - Dirty Story   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-14)
With the selection of John Patrick Shanley's Dirty Story, Third Rail is two-for-two on scripts that subvert up-to-the-minute current events with bizarre situational comedy.
Story can even be seen as a sort of sequel to Events; where Wright's play addressed the horrors of 9/11 itself, Shanley's overtly allegorical script tackles the nightmarish econo-political cesspool that has become the aftermath of that horrific day.
The weird deviations in the first act aside, Dirty Story is a shockingly unoriginal satire befitting of a Saturday Night Live skit, filtered through the three-hour musings of a brilliant playwright.

 Wired News: How Bad Can a 'Dirty Bomb' Be?
All the experts stress that a "dirty bomb" is not the same as a nuclear weapon, which generates intense heat and radiation from splitting atoms, according to a statement from Rob Fanney and Jim Tinsley of defense watchdog
A dirty bomb packs radioactive material inside or around conventional explosives, which are then detonated to spread the radioactive material.
If a relatively tiny "dirty bomb" -- one containing only ten pounds of TNT and pea-sized amount of cesium-137 -- were detonated in Washington, federation scientists recently told Congress, "The initial passing of the radioactive cloud would be relatively harmless, and no one would have to evacuate immediately."

It is unclear whether Attorney General John Ashcroft was referring to this person when he said Padilla worked with someone in Pakistan on plans to build a dirty bomb.
A dirty bomb is a conventional bomb equipped with radioactive material designed to spread over a wide area.
The attorney general said Padilla would be treated as an "enemy combatant" of the United States, a move that means he has fewer legal rights than an ordinary defendant in a criminal case.

While Shanley is to be commended for the depth to which he is able to take his conceit, he has overindulged himself with our time, given his abandonment of the initial story in favor of social commentary.

 Ol' Dirty Bastard - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Ol' Dirty Bastard simultaneously brought a measure of humor and a touch of the absurd to the Wu-Tang Clan.
Ol' Dirty Bastard was born Russell Jones in Brooklyn in 1968, and grew up in the neighborhood of Fort Greene.
Armed with a seemingly crazed, slurred, often off-beat, half-sung half-rapped delivery, bizarre lyrics and humorous antics that were unlike anything ever heard before in rap, he seemed to encapsulate and personify the raw, unadulterated and innovative style of the group.

 The Dirty Story of Where we Get our Coal
NSP gets that coal from the El Cerrejon Norte coal mine in northern Colombia, a notoriously dirty piece of business in that unfortunate country where it's hard to tell which is worse: the army and its paramilitary killers, the armed narco-traffickers, the rebel insurgents or the foreign corporations backed by the World Bank.
My March 26 column entitled "The dirty story of where we get our coal," about the human and environmental brutality surrounding the Colombian mine where Nova Scotia Power gets its coal, brought me some illuminating responses regarding some of our own dirty coal stories.
First, the Nova Scotia government has called for proposals for up to 10 strip mines in a 20-kilometre radius from Sydney, mostly along the shore from Boularderie on one side to past Port Morien on the other.

What he did was get arrested as soon as he stepped off the plane on May 8, having come full circle, back to Chicago, the site of his first encounters with the law.
He alarmed Americans and roiled the markets by describing Padilla as a "known terrorist" pursuing an "unfolding terrorist plot"—leaving the impression that other bombers were still at large.
He said, wrongly, that a dirty bomb "can cause mass death and injury." White House officials fumed at what one called Ashcroft's "grandstanding." The officials concede they approved Ashcroft's statement but complain they were given it only at the last minute—and didn't anticipate his overly dire tone.
