Wow, what diversity of thought we have in this country… Law… Read More »
The bad news: Shots were fired outside the U.S. Capitol building…The worse news: No Tea Party members were hit. Bitcoin was apparently used on a black-market website called The Silk Road, and since the authorities raided the site and arrested its founder it has dropped Bitcoin’s valuation nearly 20 percent. Right…uhhh…I totally understand how Bitcoin works and… Read More »
Floyd Mayweather won another fight in a decision against a handpicked opponent most people have never heard of, and now the big question turns to who he’ll fight next. My guess? His toughest opponent yet: a new form of Gonorrhea. Wheel of Fortune recently denied a man a chance at a million dollars because he… Read More »
After months of casting hype, the 50 Shades of Grey movie finally has its two lead stars…Is it Rob Pattinson and Kristen Stewart (as E.L. James originally wanted, these books started as Twilight fan fiction, after all)? Nope…Is it Ryan Gosling and Emily Blunt? Nope…Is it Chris Evans and Shailene Woodley at least?!

Bradley Manning, the whistle-blower who leaked all those documents to Wikileaks announced that he’s really a woman trapped in a man’s body, and he now wants to be called Chelsea Manning. I swear I’m not making this shit… Read More »
Angus T. Jones of Two-and-a-Half-Men infamy (although approximately no one was watching the show because they were such a fan of him…even fans of the show would probably say “Angus T. Who?”) was let go from the show and demoted to a possible recurring character instead of a series regular, most likely because he made… Read More »
And now for something completely different…a run-down of how all the big late night hosts reacted to Leno leaving The Tonight Show…[In order of preference] 5. Jimmy Kimmel’s response was surprisingly not-nasty, and even a little tame… “It is a big one for the world of late-night television. As you probably heard, it was announced officially… Read More »
The Central African Republican experienced a coup by rebels last week, as their president fled to Cameroon (although some reports say he didn’t stay there long and will eventually seek exile in Benin).
