BREAKING–Liberal Feminist Loves Her Some Palin.

I’ve always been confused with the rejection by “Big Feminism” of the eminently strong, independent and powerful Sarah Palin. Perhaps it’s because I just don’t understand what it means to be a feminist. I’m sure that’s what some feminists will tell me, but I don’t buy it. I’m sort of smart and good at figuring [...]

Number Two.

Boy, if it doesn’t seem that the Yankees are about to give old Number 2 a “number two” of their own, doesn’t it? For the uninitiated, here’s a good summary to bring you up to speed. “Derek Jeter is a great Yankee and he’s a great player. With that said and done, now is a [...]

GameStop Health Care

I’m no government know-it-all; I’m just a mom, a former elementary school teacher who believes simple is best.  I have been watching as our government partakes in a circus-like atmosphere, trying to choose a health care plan that will cost too much, both literally and figuratively.  I personally have prayed for the uninsured for years; I [...]

Damn Yankees.

In case you needed another reason to hate the Yankees: This year the Yankees moved into a new stadium. According to baseball economist Neil deMause of the excellent Field of Schemes website, the facility cost a stunning $1.56 billion, and the total project (including replacing 22-acres of parkland that had been destroyed by the construction) [...]

“Oh, Homey.”

Marge Simpson to appear in Playboy. No joke: She has just turned 20, boasts an hour-glass figure, and has millions of male admirers around the world. But there Marge Simpson’s similarity with your average Playboy cover-girl ends. In a bold departure for both Hugh Hefner’s empire and America’s longest-running television sitcom, Ms Simpson has nonetheless [...]

Wait, what?

The divorce between Peter Brant and supermodel Stephanie Seymour is getting ugly. According to new legal filings, Brant alleges that Seymour spends $257,000 per month, including $50,000 on new clothes alone (via NY Post.) Brant also alleges his ex is stealing his prized items from their Connecticut home and continuing to abuse controlled substances like [...]

Obama, Jack and Squat.

In the world of SNL, life often imitates art.  NBC’s darling President Obama was not spared this weekend, and this opening sketch sums things up somewhat nicely.  I say somewhat because despite the mocking of what little our President has not done, the unbelievable spending, lack of promised transparency, and general dividing of our nation [...]

Thundercrack.

That should be the new code name for Obama’s “Stimulus” package since it’s clear by now that nothing remotely stimulating has occurred despite his gloom and doom threats (promises?) of so many months ago. And why was the Stimulus doomed from the start? Because when you open spigots of money, people are going to rush [...]

Ch-ch-ch Chia!

Just thought this was classic. I posted something on this during the campaign and I don’t want to go look for it now…but it had to do with ultimate destinations of pop fads being remainder racks and discount bins. I hadn’t thought of this one, though. What do you think? And some are saying that [...]

Dirty Old Manson.

In case you were wondering what Charles Manson looks like now, the good folks at California’s Corcoran State Prison (where the evil dwarf is being held for the rest of his days) thought it might be a nice idea for you to take a look see.

Are you experienced?

UPDATE—-here she is, in the flesh. Easing the transition from awkward big-headedness to sleek doe-eyedness for tweens everywhere. So by now I’m thinking you’ve all heard of the new model they’re about to break out for Dora the Explorer? They’re keeping us guessing as to the details, but they’re hoping we’ll all be titillated enough [...]

Ban on Barbie?

CHARLESTON, W.Va. (AP) – Just in time for Barbie’s 50th birthday, a West Virginia lawmaker wants to outlaw the doll. Democratic Delegate Jeff Eldridge is proposing to ban the sale of the Mattel doll and others like her in West Virginia. He says the dolls influence girls to place too much importance on physical beauty, [...]

Leave it to the Japanese.

To think of something as totally cool as this. I mean, if you’re baby’s already crawling around there on the floor, you might as well strap some pads to his butt and let him wipe up the dust and grime while he’s down there, right? Why didn’t anyone else think of this? Adopt! Adapt! Adept!

Got Milk?

***UPDATE*** 2/9/09-4:54pm–Here’s the video. Sweet fancy moses, is this chick batty? +#+#+#+#+#++#+#+#+#+ Always ready to lend a . . . hand, Salma Hayek is doing her part to save the world, one mouth at a time. Salma Hayek is so fond of breastfeeding (and babies) that she once breastfed another woman’s baby. During a recent [...]

The Swimsuit Issue is out.

In case anyone was wondering. I just wish they’d get better looking girls for this thing already. That’s all I’m saying. Yeesh.

um . . . Ashley Judd?

By now we’ve all heard about Ashley Judd’s tinfoil hat crusade against the aerial wolf killing that’s going on in Alaska. Never mind that the wolves, if allowed to reproduce unfettered, would wipe out the Alaskan moose population and starve, you know, actual PEOPLE. It’s Sarah Palin that Ashley’s after, so there’s no need to [...]

I can exclusively reveal that all four stars—Sarah Jessica Parker, Cynthia Nixon, Kim Cattrall and Kristin Davis—and writer-director Michael Patrick King have now signed their deals for another round of Carrie Bradshaw & [...]

Too much t-t-time on his hands.

Hear about the guy who posted nude photos of his ex-wife online? Brown says Gillen admitted that he created an Internet account in his ex-wife’s name and used it to contact men and engage in racy conversations. Gillen also sent them nude photos of her and posted some online. The DA says Gillen admitted that [...]

There’s a lady who’s sure…

So all that glitters is not gold, apparently. I always like studio performances anyway. Too bad we didn’t get the album version of Born to Run at halftime instead of the old guy running around like a buffoon. Turns out Jennifer Hudson’s performance of the anthem on Sunday was lip-synched. I guess I’ll get over [...]

Simon says…

Let’s party like it’s 1979. Some Simon Cowell pix for you to gawk at while eating your lunch.

The content of his character.

I’ve been thinking a lot today about just what it is about Barack Obama and the entire orgiastic media frenzy we’ve been subjected to these past 18 months that has me so resentful. I think I’ve narrowed it down. I thought I was already post-racial. Oops. I am going to be 39 years old this [...]
