Is It Time to Stop Picking on Glenn Beck? {Inside TV Blog}

Nov 20th 2009 6:53PM Hey, listen up, everyone: it's television, it's not real life. It's fake. It's fiction. It's entertainment. You've been suckered into thinking there's some kind of real dialogue going on. It's all been scripted for your amusement (and to manipulate you). You want reality? Look out the window - not at an LCD screen!

New Minute Maid juice packaging -- can it avoid the Tropicana disaster? {WalletPop}

Nov 20th 2009 10:55AM Judging from the ridiculous and wasteful packaging and the even more ludicrous advertising, it would be my guess that more and more advertising agency "geniuses" are getting their inspiration from nose candy (you know: the white, powdery kind).

Palin photographer breached contract with sale to Newsweek {Daily Finance}

Nov 18th 2009 7:22PM Come off your besmirched ivory tower, Palin; that cover shot is EXACTLY how you want to promote yourself. It was the whole substance of your vice-presidential campaign, as well. You just can't seem to get enough of yourself, can you! But don't think you can fool us with any made-up primness now.

REPORT: Senator John McCain doesn't believe Chrysler will make it {Autoblog}

Nov 17th 2009 12:26PM The also-ran man - the genius who brought Sarah Palin and her brood into the national eye - has no business saying anything about anything. Well, yes, he has his first amendment rights, of course, but it's beyond belief that the media think it's worthy of repeating on the national stage. Go away, John.

Nicolas Cage's Financial Problems Linked to His Lavish Spending Habits? {Popeater}

Nov 5th 2009 2:41PM Tsk, tsk, all you naysayers. Think of how much he's contributed to the economy by buying all that stuff and consuming all those services! Why, he's practically a one-man stimulus package! (Yeah, I know; truth is, I'm jealous as hell, too.)

Everybody Loves Jeff Dunham -- Or Do They? {Inside TV Blog}

Nov 5th 2009 9:00AM Yes, Daynah, you are missing something. You are missing the fact that many Americans are sick and tired of lackluster, politically-correct, mustn't offend anyone humor. Dunham has the character (chutzpah, balls, cojones, whatever you like) to present his material the way he chooses. I enjoy it, as do many others, obviously. You, on the other hand, have the option not to watch his show. But thank you for speaking up, your opinion is very important to me. Not.

Perky Jerky: This caffeine and meat snack has a dash of charitable cause {Daily Finance}

Nov 2nd 2009 12:42PM Okay, caffeine in meat jerky sounds okay. Now, how about the brownies - with their old-fashioned traditional additive - for dessert?

Chinese chicken: Which fast food chain may serve you this scary import? {WalletPop}

Nov 2nd 2009 12:39PM Whole Foods is marketing Romaine lettuce from Mexico - the land of fertilizing crops with you-know-what, but at least they label it clearly so that the public can choose whether or not to buy it. Will McDonald's or any other food chain label the origin of the chicken they serve? If not, it might be best to boycott it althogether - not to make a political statement, but to keep you and your family healthy.

Real 'Paranormal Activity' Reactions: New Movie Seriously Haunting Fans {Inside Movies Blog}

Oct 30th 2009 12:15PM When I want scary stuff, I look out of my window at night and watch the goings-on in the street below. When I want more scary stuff, I put on the TV news and watch the goings-on in the world. Problem is, when I curse and run out of my home "theater," I find myself in - you guessed it - the street below.
