Essential Reading
I've been planning a career change for some time now, and this guide might be just what I've been looking for. Via Quirk Books. They have many other helpful how-to books as well. This book looks promising also.
Mark Your Calendar
The Knockemstiff Hillbilly Bash takes place July 11th-13th in Knockemstiff (yes, it's a real place- I shit you not.), Ohio. The event is sure to be "one of the biggest hell raisin' hogroasts of the year." "The world's largest outlaw gatherin' - AINT NO DAMN LAW MAN GUNNA RIDE INTA THIS FUK'N GATHERN, LESS HE BE HANGIN FROM A BIG OL TREE!!!"~ Mr.Spooky Holler
Is Huck Fin?
Huckabee's high profile supporter is a cheat, among other things. I guess this means Huck is either corrupt, or naive, or both. This race is getting grimmer by the moment. We're used to picking the lesser of (2) evils, but this is ridiculous. I weep for this former superpower. I feel as if I'm trapped on one of the lower decks of the Titanic as it descends into the icy waters of despair. The baby boomers have tossed it all away. I see no hope left. We're going to Hell in a bucket. Maybe partying will help? I think I know how Taylor must've felt in that final scene in Planet of the Apes. I refer of course to the original with Chuck Heston, not the cheesy, albeit aesthetically pleasing, remake with Marky Mark. I shudder to think that society could be en route to a fate similar to that in Conquest of the Planet of the Apes.

Oh Good!, Another endorsement.
so she thinks he'll be another do-nothing, womanizing president who eventually "dies for his country"? John was not the liberal martyr that some would have you believe.The bridge between Kennedy and King was a shaky, precarious link, one built with the purpose of increasing black voter loyalty to the Democratic party. Do you know why Kennedy was never a boxer?....'cause he couldn't take a shot to the head. "err-uh,err-uh,ow!" With all this talk about Hillary and Barak making history by being female and black candidates,respectively, I have to wonder why doesn't Connie Rice run? I might vote for her.I really dislike the front runners in both parties.

Celebrity Endorsements
Rambo supports McCain. Chuck likes Huck. Oprah likes the black guy. Who cares?! While none of these are rockers, this quote seems to fit: "If you're listening to a rock star in order to get your information on who to vote for, you're a bigger moron than they are." ~ Alice Cooper. If America chooses a leader because of what some aged action heroes or fat talk show hostess tells them we're doomed. If it's not already too late. Allowing the ignorant masses to vote is like arming a chimp.

Taxation without legalization
A tax on a commodity that no one is supposed to have? Can they have it both ways? I guess it's all about revenue.

Oh the humanity!
R I P
Suzanne Pleshette. Suzanne was most notable for her role as Emily Hartley on The Bob Newhart Show. Emily was not the typical "Stepford" sitcom wife that audiences were previously used to.She was to reprise this role some years later in the series finale of Newhart. The episode is considered by many to be the greatest series ending ever, in complete contrast to the steaming pile which "rubbed-out" The Sopranos.
New York Islanders sign Colin Powell!
Well, not exactly, but that headline sounds better than "Colin meets Wang!"

"Let's do it."
the famous last words of Gary Gilmore. Gilmore became the first person to be executed in the U.S. after the death penalty had been reinstated. His death by firing squad was 31 years ago today in Utah. His last meal consisted of a hamburger, eggs and potatoes,although his original request was for a six-pack of beer. More on last meals here.
The Fun Police
... are at it again. "Bargain booze" under attack. Tennis to become (even more) boring.
HAPPY BIRTHDAY MICK!!!
Former Rolling Stone Mick Taylor celebrates a birthday today.Mick played with the 'Stones during what many consider to be their greatest period. Another notable birthday celebrated today is that of Eartha Kitt. You may remember her as Catwoman,on the Batman T.V. series.She was neither the original, nor the best Catwoman, however.
Larry Craig
The good ol' A.C.L.U. defends Larry's right to have private bathroom sex. I side with Mr. Broyles on this one .Jackie says "use the bathroom , wash your hands, and get the hell out of there!"

Borat has New Book!

One for Cooney
Technological battle rages on. This is like the Video Tape Format war back in the '70's. Remember Betamax?

What's the Problem?
Maybe they should just take your word for who you are. What could go wrong? Why do just the Democrats see a problem?

Goldie Hawn is full of shit!
Aspen is Full of Paparazzi? Either Goldie is as sick and delusional as Britney, or she's trying to create a buzz about herself. I guess it worked.She's in the press for the first time since god knows when. What a dumb bitch. Does she really think anyone gives a damn about her has-been ass? When I start to think the paparazzi are stalking me, I just take (or sometimes stop) my meds. Maybe she's right. Maybe the press is after photos of her and her children (32,29,and 22 years old) like they were with other celebs and their kids.Maybe she needs to get knocked up like Jamie-Lynn. If she were to give birth at 62 that might warrant some press. Perhaps a "Tony (Randall) award". As for Dr Phil, I get the impression he's just jumping into the middle of a hot topic for his own gain, like Jesse and Al. I must give Ms. Hawn some credit.I doubt that I'd of ever blogged about her before this recent cry for attention. Maybe she should go to rehab,that makes headlines.

Box-office Spin
Box-office revenues are up!, Good news for film industry?, Not necessarily. Studios report revenue, not attendance. Sure, movies continue to set record earnings, but ticket prices have soared. With all the crap, remakes, and sequels Hollywood churns out, it's tough to feel for the striking writers. Maybe a Reagan type housecleaning would help improve the bizz.
