Hulk Hogan is a professional wrestler and Jon Stewart is still just a comedian

Hulk Hogan is a professional wrestler and Jon Stewart is still just a comedian
Hulk Hogan was recently booted from the WWE (World Wrestling Entertainment) for racially charged rants dating back to 2012 and 2007.  The only real surprise is that we’re just hearing about it.

O say can you "C - word"

O say can you "C - word"
Paula Deen’s in the news again, this time for some brown paint on her son’s face.  Some “I Love Lucy” thing tweeted out by her social secretary.  Not a Paula Deen fan, but this one’s really stretching the politically correct banner to its limits. Last time Deen was in trouble it involved the n-word and... Read more »

Jack of all trades, rockstar in my own mind

Jack of all trades, rockstar in my own mind
Tonight’s assignment, sent to us at 9:00 PM CDT is to write a blog on the following subject and publish it exactly at 10:00 PM: “Without trying to be humble, write about something you’re really good at.” I spent the first five minutes staring at it, trying to decide if that “at” is a dangling...

Tomorrow: Fact or fiction?

Tomorrow: Fact or fiction?
        The only problem with getting a topic at 9:00 PM about which you must publish a finished, cogent blog by 10:00 PM is…the whole thing.  That’s the problem, the whole thing. Producing an impromptu blog in an hour isn’t necessarily harder than having all day to do it, especially when you... Read more »

Toilets, showers, parking spaces and the Americans with Disabilities Act

Toilets, showers, parking spaces and the Americans with Disabilities Act
Today’s subject is toilets and if you think we’re going to be doing potty jokes here, please flush that thought from your mind.  OK, that’s the last one. Finishing my workout yesterday at Lifetime Fitness in Vernon Hills, Illinois, I stripped down-not a pretty sight-and headed for the showers.  Lifetime has 16 shower stalls, including... Read more »

Kanye West once again proves to Beyonce that she is his one true love

Kanye West once again proves to Beyonce that she is his one true love
Kanye West is a weird guy no matter how you look it.  If he had a little more talent, he would be to music what Forest Whitaker is to acting. No offense, Forest. Whitaker always seems to be deep in thought, as if he’s working to get into the mind of some new character.  To... Read more »

John Boehner had shocking personal relationship with bartender

John Boehner had shocking personal relationship with bartender
If you’re shocked about the current allegations that John Boehner’s bartender threatened to kill him, don’t be.  I would expect no less than a twisted, psychopathic bartender being a member of Boehner’s inner circle.  For a guy like Michael Hoyt-the bartender in question-to be that angry at Boehner, Hoyt must have felt that Boehner betrayed...
