Friday Cat Scratch Fever: Some Deadly Tedly by Pantera

Top 10: Biggest bombs of the decade

Financially speaking, the biggest flops of the aughts. Not shockingly, Will Ferrell, who has been revealed as the worst return-per-buck in Hollywood, is prominently featured. Nicole Kidman, who skyrocketed after divorce from Tom Cruise, shows her pale face.

Thanksgiving Hubba Hubba

My Thanksgiving hubba hubba is Bridget Lancaster from PBS’s “Cook’s Country.”  Here she is, just about to serve up an enormous helping of something delicious.

Why is she my dream girl?

Because at my age…

…when I hear “great rack” my thoughts turn to lamb.

…when a friend characterizes a girl as a “butterface,” [...]

Hide the Decline — Kiwi Edition

It seems that New Zealand’s National Institute of Water and Atmospheric research (NIWA) is under fire for “cooking the numbers” — a la the East Anglia Climate Research Unit.

The New Zealand Government’s chief climate advisory unit NIWA is under fire for allegedly massaging raw climate data to show a global warming trend that wasn’t [...]

Gobble, Gobble!

Happy Thanksgiving! If you are renting a car this holiday season don’t forget your rental agreement.

UPDATE: I just watched the actual video at Plane Stupid’s website. Click here to get there.

It’s even better than the skydiving polar bears that Tracy suggested. It’s more like the Inuits are bombing New York with polar bears. Which is another way of saying that it is F***ING AWESOME! If they ever [...]

I Need Food! Stat!

I’ve addressed this before, but one of my biggest pet peeves and one of the top 5 threats to our nation behind lawyers, Obama’s domestic policy, Obama’s foreign policy, and “moderate Republicans” are soft scientists (social, climate, et al) and bullshit statistics (they are joined like a good marriage and thus go together). Only [...]

(bumped) Champion Dose of Hubba-hubba: Donny Osmond

edited to add: Hewonhewonhewonhewonhewonwonwon!!!!!

A favorite story of mine involves two great storytellers in their own right:  Garson Kanin was chatting with David Niven and mentioned in passing something to the effect of, “Now that we’re both middle-aged men…”
