  • Anna Nicole Smith. Today Was Her Birthday.

    If Anna Nicole Smith was alive, she would be turning 40 years old today. I remember looking at her Guess jeans posters and wondering what she would look like at 40. But thanks to Howard K. Stern and other toxic people in Anna Nicole’s life, we will never know.

    With all the insane chaos surrounding the [...]

  • Manic Monday. Wish It Were Sunday.

    Today is Monday, and that’s a big downer, but I had a wonderful long weekend and it was just the mini vacation I needed to help propel me through the end of the year.

  • Hogan Knows Divorce. Coming Soon!

    This news may not have come as a surprise to you, but it certainly did Hulk Hogan, who was informed by a reporter that his wife Linda has filed for divorce.

    What a crappy way to start the holidays. I wonder if it has anything to do with the fact that their daughter is a ogre [...]

  • Give Thanks To A Recovering American Soldier - CORRECTION

    So apparently the email I got a few days ago was a fake. Which is totally messed up since the idea behind it is a nice one. What would possess someone to send out a fake address?? Thank you, Big John for pointing this out to me. I apologize for any grief or confusion my [...]

  • Gobble! Gobble! Gobble!

    Happy Thanksgiving!

    Ben Franklin thought the turkey should be the official bird of the U.S.

    Since 1970, turkey consumption as gone up 108%.

    The average weight of turkeys on the table for Thanksgiving is 15 pounds.

    A 15 pound turkey is about 70% light meat and 30% dark meat.

  • Thanksgiving. Thanks For Nothing!

    Ok, so I’m not exactly thankful for nothing, but I’m not overflowing with thanks either. Raise your hand if this past year has been as hard for you as it has for me. Yes, yes, I know it could be worse…blah, blah, blah…but the fact remains that as of this instant, my life is pretty [...]

    Well, I am certainly having a case of the Mondays today. I hit my head earlier coming up from plugging something in under my desk. Then about 10 minutes ago I pinched the side of my palm in a rusty metal lock and am now watching it turn different colors. Yes, I have ice on [...]

  • Monday Morning Poem

    I guess I can’t complain too much that today is Monday – it’s a short week in the office, after all. But that’s really of little consolation. It’s still Monday and I still wish it wasn’t. Worse than that, it’s Monday morning, the worst morning of them all.

    On November 19, 1863 President Abraham Lincoln delivered [...]

    Ever hear of Stockton, CA? Well Ozzy Osbourne and Rob Zombie have, and tonight they’re performing at the Arena there. I will be attending, along with my boyfriend, one of the people I went to the Download Festival with, and my wise friend Rhobby. I’m guessing it’s going to be a pretty kick-ass night.

  • Thanksgiving Dinner Rules

    One week from today, Thanksgiving will kick off the 2007 Holiday Season. Well, in America anyway, and only if you don’t count Halloween. But other than that, it’s the beginning.
