One of the best actors in filmic history died today. Paul Newman, the other guy from Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid, the guy whose star shone so brightly that even Tom Cruise looked like Oscar material when standing beside him, finally lost a battle with cancer.
You’ve got to give credit to Paul Newman not just for his good-natured humanitarianism [...]

I am so going to hell for laughing at this.
Palin goes from most to least popular candidate
Posted in Celebrities, John McCain, Obama, Politics on September 18, 2008 | Leave a Comment »
The favorability ratings for Sarah Palin slipped over just the course of this week. Sure, the lustre of a charming female candidate from a rugged and mysterious state initially gave McCain a huge boost and stole Obama’s post-speech podium power. But in the sober light of day, the more we know about Sarah Palin, the less we like:
Since [...]
Farfisa Hall of Fame – Rick Wright of Pink Floyd
Posted in Bands, Celebrities, Electronic Music, Farfisa, Obituaries, Performers, Personal Shit, Songwriters on September 17, 2008 | Leave a Comment »
One of my favorite keyboardists of all time, Rick Wright, died yesterday of cancer.
For anyone who loves the early Pink Floyd sound and despises their later stuff, it’s worth noting that Roger Waters basically kicked Rick out of the band just as they were starting to suck, probably because Wright refused to suck as much as the Seventies crapola-fest [...]
Galveston

I’m so sad to hear what Texas and the Gulf have gone through in the wake of Hurricane Ike. True, it’s not nearly as bad in terms of human loss as what happened with Katrina–and I’m glad to hear the population of Galveston has undergone only four reported deaths, a far cry from the 8,000 [...]
Alaskan women reject Palin in largest protest in state history
Posted in Politics on September 15, 2008 | Leave a Comment »
If you’ve been banging your head against the nearest blunt portion of your home because of the poll numbers indicating Sarah Palin gave McCain a much-needed bump in popularity, it may warm your heart to know Palin is not so well loved at home, even among the demographic she was supposed to have swayed.
The Alaskan [...]
PUMAs abuse poor Linda Ronstadt!

Well, they didn’t literally abuse her, but they did use her music to support their anti-Obama agenda.
Too bad it turns out that Linda Ronstadt actually contributed to Obama’s campaign.
I politely mentioned this in the comments on their site, but they deleted the post. I guess not only are they self-centered, ignorant pricks, but they’re also [...]
an invitation to the “Democrats in Exile”
Posted in Celebrities, Other Stuff, Personal Shit, Politics on September 11, 2008 | 3 Comments »
It’s the seventh anniversary of the 911 attacks. Looking back on how badly our leadership has handled everything that’s happened since, it makes me more resolute than ever that McCain must lose this election, and we have to get a Democrat in office. Obama was not my first pick (that would be Edwards, before I [...]
Sarah Palin condoned mistreatment of rape victims in Wasilla
Posted in Celebrities, John McCain, Other Stuff, Politics on September 10, 2008 | Leave a Comment »
Isn’t it funny how much fetid crap there is to talk about when it comes to Sarah Palin? McCain would be a terrible leader, but Sarah Palin is a retarded, hypocritical, abortion-hating, moralizing moose-shooter who can’t keep her hands out of questionable funds.
And now I learn that under her watch, the police chief she appointed charged women for [...]
my biggest problem with Sarah Palin
Posted in Celebrities, Comedy, Politics, Television on September 8, 2008 | 1 Comment »
More than all her wacko pro-life beliefs and her inexperience, I hate Sarah Palin because she tarnishes the name of one of the best comic actors of all time!
