Essay: "I'm the proud owner of Karl Rove’s father’s solid gold #%$@ ring."

And now for something completely different . . .

This first link is suitable for work, but be forewarned links beyond that may contain images that are NSFW or possible offensive to some folks.

It's a remarkable story and appears to be true, but should probably by taken skeptically for safe measure. If true, Rove's position as one of Bush's senior advisors and being an admitted atheist with an "interesting" step-father, is the epitome of ironic, IMHO.

Excerpt:

So who cares about one man’s journey into piercing? For me it is not about a gossipy story, though some people will take it that way. It is not about telling secrets or things left best unsaid; it is about a little piece of history. Perhaps in telling this story someone else will be able to tell a better one another day.
