Offies 2004: Presenting our annual Off-Guard Awards for the most stupid,..

.. silly, and bizarre acts and events of 2004.

By Tim Redmond

<snip> President George W. Bush announced that his administration "will never stop thinking about new ways to harm our country and our people." <snip>

A 17-year-old was arrested in Palm Desert after allegedly walking into a medical clinic and shooting his girlfriend � because she was about to abort his baby. <snip>

After being sentenced to five months' incarceration for her role in an insider stock-trading scandal, Martha Stewart invoked the name of Nelson Mandela, saying, "Many, many good people have gone to prison." <snip>

"I own a timber company? That's news to me. Need some wood?" <snip>
