Priorities

You know the President has them. Can he strong-arm the Copenhagen selection committee as only a Chicago thug knows how? We shall see …

“Who better to share with members of the International Olympic Committee the commitment and enthusiasm Chicago has for the Olympic and Paralympic Movement than the President and First Lady.”

Forty Nine Years Ago Today

A real American hero went out in style:

For JohnFN…

…and any other blues-lovin’ folks. Just watched this boy (all 22 years old) stand toe-to-toe with Joe Satriani, swappin’ solos on “Bad Motor Scooter” to close out the Chickenfoot show. Damn.

Sadly, no Davy Knowles, but what’cha gonna do…

Did Penn State lose this weekend? I don’t remember anymore.

For Republibot 3.0 (and Rufus … kinda)

No He Din’t

Barack Obama may commit the ultimate sin. It’s one thing to be incompetent. Being arrogant is another. Strike three? Being a killjoy.

Now, I know longer school days and school years are not wildly popular ideas,” the president said earlier this year. “Not with Malia and Sasha, not in my family, and probably not [...]

N.Y. Post: Commies frog-march Kyle Smith

Threedonia friend and N.Y. Post columnist Kyle Smith gave Michael Moore an easy out with an easy question. It was an honest chance for Moore to go on record that he was not all that his conservative critics accuse him of. The results were predictable.

I went to a mike and said (I am [...]

Swiss Guard

The Swiss authorities have made an arrest. The question is… will the L.A. County DA seek extradition on of Roman Polanski?

He declined to explain why Polanski was never previously arrested in Switzerland, where he has often traveled or stayed. A 1996 interview with Canada’s Menz magazine describes Polanski’s visits to the luxury resort of [...]

All The News That’s Fit To…well, who the hell are we kidding anyway

I found out about this incident ( The report from the Dallas Observer newspaper )from my good friend ’67 Cougar…not that he’s not a great guy, but why would I hear about this first by clicking on his website on the 26th of September and not from a major news outlet?

Yesterday, the 24th, Hosam [...]

Thank you, President Obama?

Blessedly haven’t been paying enough attention to any lyrics on Pearl Jam’s latest, Backspacer, to pick up any specifics on what they claim were songs joyously written in the wake of last November’s presidential lunacy election. Dirty frankly, right now I don’t care. Pearl Jam finally did what so many of us have asked [...]

After Multiple Viewings of “Mulholland Drive”…

Bill Clinton has changed his mind on gay marriage. “I think Naomi Watts should be allowed lifetime access to state-sanctioned girl-on-girl action on principle,” President Clinton told CNN’s Anderson Cooper.

In an interview with CNN’s Anderson Cooper Friday, Clinton explained that he still believes each state should decide whether to legalize gay marriage, but [...]

Winning Score

These things always run the risk of being maudlin, but having a cousin who has Down Syndrome I can vouch that this will forever stick with this kid. Day? Made. He will tell the tale for the rest of his life.

Also watch this because this is and will continue to be a [...]

3D Weekend Five: Songs You Can’t Admit You Love

– except here, of course.

5.  Julie, Do Ya Love Me?/Bobby Sherman: Ah, my first love.  About ten years ago, this song came on the radio…hadn’t heard it since, uh, the 70s…I screamed and started singing along. Scarily, every single word came back to me.  Immediately.

4. I Think I Love You/The Partridge Family: David [...]

Friday Night Fight

I bet Mitch Gaylord could kick his ass.

“It’s old-school, not old-fashioned. That’s football.”

For the lefty trolls, a reason to hate Penn State.

Fully admitting my blue-and-white bias, for those fans of football who may want to forget about politics for about three hours, tomorrow night’s game between Penn State and Iowa looks like just the stuff for ya. ESPN’s Ivan Maisel provides a great pre-game back-drop.
