On January 19, 2010 at 3:24 pm
BOSTON GLOBE PUBLISHES ELECTION RESULTS 7 HOURS EARLY Earlier today, the Boston Globe posted online the results of the Massachusetts special election for U.S. Senate. A screenshot of the posting reveals a razor-thin 1% victory for Martha Coakley over Scott Brown with 100% of precincts reporting. The only problem with the post, however, is that [...]
Underpants Bomber Special Guest at Michelle Obama Surprise Birthday Party
On at 7:53 amfrom The Endive… First Lady Michelle Obama got more than she bargained for when Umar Farouk Abdulmutallab, better known as the Underpants Bomber, showed up as the guest of honor at her surprise birthday party. “This is all, well, it’s a misunderstanding,” said President Barack Obama, who spent days arranging the party, “I really thought [...]
Obama’s Kiss of Death
On at 7:32 am
Congratulations to Democratic Senatorial Candidate Coakley, the latest recipient of the Obama’s Kiss of Death. President Obama appeared at a lackluster event in Boston where the room with a meager 3000 person capacity couldn’t even be filled, something the almost never happens for a Presidential appearance. He then proceeded to spend the majority of his time trashing Coakley’s opponent in between shouted downs by anti abortion protesters. The result was nothing short of a complete blowout.
Gilbert Arenas, You are an Idiot!!
On at 7:13 am
Gilbert Arenas of the Washington Wizards has pleaded guilty to felony weapons charges. In case you haven’t heard, Arenas brought unloaded guns into the Verizon Center in Washington, D.C., and kept them in his lockers. Then (just in case that wasn’t dumb enough) he took them out in a failed attempt at humor during a dispute [...]
My Blue Alien Heaven

In Peter Weir’s “The Truman Show,” Noah Emmerich’s character Marlon commented on the sky above as he talked life and love with Jim Carrey. The two gaze at a sunset, during which Marlon brought up the brush the “big guy” upstairs used to sculpt the moment. The big guy upstairs wasn’t the “big guy,” as [...]
Haiti Relief
On at 9:37 am
Ironically, in a move modeled after Bush, Obama has turned to his two predecessors to do the job. The fact that this is probably the wisest move he will ever make, notwithstanding; it’s most curious, considering his response to Bush’s Hurricane Katrina. Maybe he feels he is being charitable, or maybe it is a move [...]
The Ladies Room: Your Glittering Lady Business
On at 9:04 am
Remember those crystal tattoos that were outrageously popular a few years back? Ever want one on your muffin? Jennifer Love Hewitt glamed out her bajingo and isn’t afraid to talk about it. In fact, she included an entire chapter about it in her book. Yes, she has a relationship book. (Dramatic pause for laughter.) “Vagazzling” [...]
“THE SPY NEXT DOOR” (Film Review)
On at 6:49 am
* (out of 4) Director: Brian Levant Rated: PG (mild violence) I actually kinda liked this movie the first time I saw it. Of course, back then it starred Vin Diesel and was called “The Pacifier.” This second time, however was a different story. I think. Honestly, there may have been a good 15 minutes [...]

“The Lovely Bones” (Film Review)
On January 15, 2010 at 6:48 am
Anyone who has dealt with death knows that it is one of the hardest things to cope with. Those of us who had to deal with death as a child know how difficult it is to comprehend the finality of it at such a young age. This is a subject that is tough to portray [...]
Deity Death Match
On at 6:35 am
When I was a kid, there was a term used to describe a natural disaster. It was called an “Act of God”. As the good parochial school boy I was, the terminology didn’t coincide with my religious teachings. After all, God was one angry guy in the Old Testament. Floods. Fires. Locusts. Lot’s wife. Truly, [...]
Final Fantasy Crystal Chronicles: The Crystal Bearers (Game Review)
On January 14, 2010 at 9:05 am
Final Fantasy: Crystal Chronicles for Gamecube was a good game. Final Fantasy Crystal Chronicles: The Crystal Bearers for Wii, is not a good game. In fact, Crystal Bearers goes down as another entry on the growing list of unfortunate blatant FF spin off cash-ins. Any fan boy should feel aggrieved, and will be left nursing [...]
It’s a Longshot, But it Could Save Us
On January 13, 2010 at 9:56 am
The United States Congress is about to put its finishing touches on legislation that will drastically change our Health Care system forever. As Americans, we all would support such a move if it was a step forward with improving a system where premiums are reduced and coverage is expanded for those who need it. However, [...]
Best Films of 2009
On at 7:00 am
Here are my favorite films of the last year. Those with links will direct you to my review of the film. Inglourious Basterds- This is Tarantino at his absolute best. The Hangover- The most successful comedy ever for more reasons that I can type. District 9- For a genre that is dead to me, this [...]
Big Mac Comes Clean
On January 12, 2010 at 12:40 pm
Mark McGwire has come clean. He has finally admitted today that he has done steroids. This is like Cher admitting that she has had a little plastic surgery. Nobody in the sports world is surprised that Mark McGwire did steroids. We were shocked when he denied it five years ago in front of congress because [...]
Who’s Your (baby) Daddy?
On at 10:05 am
Ugly Betty has catapulted from Friday night prime-time exile to the top of the heap – right after ABC’s clever and well- written Modern Family and the popular-yet-depressing-to-me Cougartown. I work in fashion, live in New York City and have long hung out with gay guys, so Ugly Betty has been a guilty pleasure for [...]
