Edison’s Lights Put Out

The Congress has spoken. That light bulb you climb on a chair to change every so often? Banned within a few years. Instead, you’ll be forced to buy compact fluorescent lights, CFL’s, those squiggly blubs. Here’s what GE says, and remember they WANT you to buy CFL’s. Because the wattage of a CFL bulb is much lower than that of an incandescent, you can use higher wattage CFL giving you the equivalent light of a higher wattage incandescent. For example: If your fixture says not to exceed 60 watts, you can use a 15 watt CFL to get the same amount of light as an incandescent bulb or use up to a 42 watt CFL and increase the amount of light. CFLs are safe to use in your home. CFLs contain a very small … Read entire article »

Questions That Must Be Asked

To Congress: Who’s running this circus? To George Bush: WTF? To Paris Hilton: How about lifting that restraining order? To the Republican Party: WTF?

Pitching Television Pilots

Having gone through the listings from the three major networks for the “new” season beginning this Fall, I was left without much to choose from. So, here’s some ideas of my own. Feel free to steal them. I’ll only sue if the series is a vast success. Agent of the Vatican In a world of devilish Masonic conspiracies and fanatical Muslim plots, only one man can save Western civilization. Leo Secundus, agent of the Vatican. It’s Crowded in Here Life, from the perspective of any of the many personalities of Sarah. Yes, a new look at an old personality disorder. You Pick Your Friends, You Live With Your Family A reality show pitting a contestant’s family against his friends. He must decide who has helped him the most during that week.

Things I Learned From Saddam’s Hanging

It’s much more difficult to tear a person’s head off of his shoulders than you might think. It doesn’t matter how you look; you’re still dead. There is a good use for hemp. There’s no shame if your last words are “I think I pissed myself.” Hood? I don’t need no stinking hood! I’m the President of Ir… … Read entire article »

Mary Katherine Ham

Mary Katherine Ham is the latest darling of the middle aged men that make up the right wing blogosphere. She’s pretty, smart, pretty, well-spoken, pretty, and just barely legal. And pretty. Townhall prints her bio but it is as dry as the Sahara and as bereft of content as a John Kerry speech. I’ve done some digging and found out the things not included in her offical bio. Mary Kate was born into a poor farming family in the hills of North Carolina. Her roots in the deep South have, to this day, failed to have any effect on her affected French Canadian accent, however. Her family lived way back in the hills. They were so isolated that the only time they left the farm was for church on Sunday. And Wednesday. … Read entire article »

Snarkiness and Other Thoughts

Did you ever wonder if Captain Kirk ever got it on with Yeoman Rand? And if she kept her boots on for it? Whoever cancelled Whoopi is an idiot. They need to fire the writers for General Hospital and All My Children. And, yes, I would so do Kendall Hart. I saw Fantasia on Fox and Friends Weekend. I hope she sings a hell of a lot better than she talks. Cause she sure seems to be a self-centered ass. Miss Australia. Crikies! Good on ya! So who would win in a fight, Jessica Lynch or Lynndie England? How about if there was jello involved? John Kerry has a bad temper and he has a control problem. Temper, not bladder (so far as I know). I bought a new mattress and box spring, King Coil. Paid a … Read entire article »
