The Ladies Room: Pretty on the Outside
On February 22, 2010 at 9:08 am
Entertainment Tonight has redefined quality news reporting. Vanessa Manillo went undercover for the program to provide quality, in-depth investigative reporting. She put on a fat suit and they taped people’s reactions. Their range of journalistic creativity is mind-blowing. I can’t imagine a more gripping news feature!
We’ve seen this before. When you start ripping off Tyra’s [...]
Tiger: By the Tale
On February 19, 2010 at 3:43 pm
The hour had come – 11am Eastern.
The focus was on a lone podium with an audience of family and friends, but no reporters.
I was stiffing my bias and the questions that whirled around my mind: Will Elin be there? Will he be contrite or combative? Will he walk out after his statement on the mend [...]
Athletes and their second chances
On at 8:48 am
Second chances. We love to give them.
As a matter of fact, we give second chances to all sorts of famous people all the time.
But we really love giving them to athletes. By “we” I am referring to the paying, sport-loving public. Just give it some thought - how many athletes have we forgiven?
We have forgiven Mike Tyson for raping a woman. [...]

NASCAR veterans Dick Trickle, Greg Biffle and Rich Bickle came together in a rare panel discussion yesterday after Jamie McMurray’s Daytona 500 victory.
“McMurray was in quite a pickle,” said Trickle to Bickle, “Dale Earnhart, Jr., was coming up fast.”
Roush Racing’s Greg Biffle agreed.

Bobby Steele on Health Care
On February 16, 2010 at 8:31 am
Here are a few facts to consider when you’re listening to discussions on this issue.
I was born in 1956 with Spina Bifida. At the time, my father worked for a small auto dealership as a mechanic. In 1962, he left that job and a year later landed a new one. In the interim, we moved [...]
Happy “Washington’s Birthday.”
On February 15, 2010 at 9:27 am
Today is not, as the vernacular would have it, “Presidents Day.” The national holiday today is in honor of our Founding Father and first President, George Washington.
At least one authority says George Washington’s Birthday, February 22, was celebrated by Americans in 1778, a mere two years after our Declaration of Independence.
Broad-based public celebrations of the [...]
Snopocalypse

(Editor’s note: this piece was found in the hand of an 8-foot snowman with a Rolling Rock bottle for a nose. In the other hand was a Starbuck’s venti mocha skinny latte-turned-Popsicle.)
It’s day five… and I’m completely past the beginning stages of cabin fever. For this, I apologize for the lack of organized thought in [...]

America’s obese youth, fed-up by the First Lady’s one-woman campaign against youthful fatness, have launched a campaign of their own.
“We will not rest until we have rid this country of Michelle Obama,” said childhood portliness advocate Randy Revis, “Well, actually we might rest for a while after dinner, until it’s time to [...]
NBA All-Star Weekend!! (sarcasm intended)
On February 10, 2010 at 6:00 am
Who really cares that the NBA All-Star weekend is coming up?
That’s the real question at hand. Who cares about the NBA at all until the very last playoff series?
I know I don’t. I am not suggesting there isn’t talent in the NBA. Obviously there is. The league features stand out stars like Lebron “I don’t shake [...]
If Congress Ran Toyota
On at 6:00 am
by Bogie
Chief Executive Officer Akio Toyoda recently apologized to the public and continues to struggle with Toyota’s unintended acceleration crisis. He could have saved himself a lot of trouble by responding the way the US Congress would if they ran the company. Listen and learn, Mr. Toyoda.
First, our congressional auto executives would angrily [...]
