Waffle House (Guest Rant)

Tuesday, June 26th, 2007

Waffle House. When’s the last time you’ve been to Waffle House? Want a third world experience in your own backyard? Go to the House.
Don’t get me wrong, I don’t mind the former inmates flipping the bacon, the crusted material on the chipped coffee cups, the dubious matter in the grout of the [...]

Giuliani and the Iraq Study Group

Sunday, June 24th, 2007

Rudy put personal financial gain ahead of politics and national security.[Slate]
If you don’t read Newsday, you might not know (I didn’t until this week) that Rudy Giuliani was an original member of the Iraq Study Group—the blue-ribbon commission co-chaired by James Baker and Lee Hamilton—but he was forced out after failing to show up for [...]

Thursday, June 21st, 2007

Strong bitch, weak scrotum, I guess. But damn…she tried to EAT it.
Amanda Monti, 24, flew into a rage when Geoffrey Jones, 37, rejected her advances at the end of a house party, Liverpool Crown Court heard.

A funny parody of their commercial:

Who needs a draft?/War can be fun!!

Sunday, June 17th, 2007

An image I snapped at a small-town carnival this weekend. Shit like this really bothers me, though most people I know think I’m nuts for saying so.

Tommy Chong on MS-NBC/Colbert Report

Wednesday, June 13th, 2007

Funny vid. Colbert’s coverage of Chong’s NBC interview about the Paris Hilton media flap. Yeah, so that’s a little convoluted, and if you’re seeing it first on this blog, via YouTube, well….that’s about as “meta” (as my friend Tamer would say) as it gets.
So Chong goes on MS-NBC to discuss Paris Hilton…I have [...]

Indian “Thriller”

Yeah. That Thriller.

Boots Riley Racially Profiled

Wednesday, June 13th, 2007

“They were saying, ‘Don’t fucking move, don’t fucking move,’ and came straight at me,” Riley told the Guardian. “They put my hands above my head, searched me, and searched my car, even though they were looking for someone who was stealing tires. You know, if they had a description of a light-skinned black man with [...]
