Fat, drunk and stupid is no way to go through life, son

Well I have decided to move on from Mindsay and do all of my sundry blogging with Blogger. I figured since 90% of my web life is wrapped up in Google stuff anyway I might as well go the whole 9 yards.
Anyhoo for anyone who liked my brand of silliness feel free to stop by my new residence:


Peace out, homeskillets!

Especially not at some cheesy ass, bullshit awards show that aired on the SPIKE channel.
I wonder if Academy Awards can be revoked?

Okey-dokey so The Beloved One announces Sonia Sotomayor as his pick for the soon to be vacated Supreme Court spot and in a sign that the party is intent on maintaining its irrelevance, The Republicans decide that the best angle of attack is to go the reverse racism route with a dash of "she's a friggin' moron with a fiery temper!' thrown in for good measure.
I have to stop being amazed at the stupidity of the modern Republican Party. This is the same Party that thought an animated corpse like John McCain was the best choice for President last year. Now never let it be said that people like Rush Limbaugh and former congressman Tom Tancredo (he actually equated La Raza with the KKK with a straight face) have ever missed an opportunity to let their anti-brown people bias shine through but when even supposedly bright guys like Newt Gingrich start following along with that meme it shows that there is something fundamentally wrong with the GOP down to its core.
It's fine to be dicks to black folks because black people are used to that treatment from the GOP but to go out of your way to alienate the Latino community is just plain old retarded. If not for the Latino vote we would have been spared the nightmarish 8 years of George W. Bush as president and to push away a voting block that is still up for grabs is the definition of self-destructive behavior. I have been hoping for the Republicans to get their act together because I am no more enamored by the thought of a Democratic one party rule than I was of the thought of Republican one party rule back in the early 2000's but it is getting harder and harder to root for these douchebags as they keep shooting themselves in the foot over and over again.

Now on to Ms Sotomayer...on paper she looks perfectly qualified. She went to the right schools, she has experience, she's a woman and a minority...she is the perfect candidate for the time we are living in. On paper. See my issue isn't with her slip of the tongue about judges making laws since Supreme Court justices have been legislating from the bench since forever and its a bit too late to start whining about it now. My problem is with a few of her rulings (namely Ricci vs DeStefano which I am almost positive the Supreme Court will overturn next month which should be a bit awkward and Doninger v Niehoff, Schwartz in which Sotomayor ruled in favor of a school district punishing a student for off-campus speech))and the fact that she isn't nearly as big a Lefty as I think this first nominee should have been. We already have a gaggle of very conservative Justices and I think it would have been great to nominate someone who was a bleeding heart liberal instead of yet another "middle of the road", centrist Dem.
But my major issue comes from the fact that we really have no clear picture of where she stands on abortion or how she would rule on Roe v Wade and wasn't that the line we were constantly being fed (more like threatened with) during the election?

"If you don't vote for Obama then Roe v Wade will be overturned!" The only way to safeguard Roe v Wade is to elect Obama because he will only nominate people who agree with that ruling!" "Plus we will all get ponies!"

Sorry 'bout that, I lost my train of thought. Anyhoo, what I want to hear is whether Sotomayor (who is a practicing Catholic btw) supports Roe v Wade or not since that has always been the litmus test for every nominee to the highest court regardless of which side of the political fence they lived on. And I don't think that has changed at all.

Meatloaf (70's version circa Bat Out Of Hell) & Kelly Clarkson (who looks like she's auditioning for the Mama Cass Elliott story)

Just giving a shout out to all the great mom's out there on their special day.

Because it has people acting like crackheads out there. I'm halfway expecting laws to be passed making Popeye's as illegal as meth. Something needs to be done because past history has shown that Popeye's can cause major violence.
First there was the incident of the couple who got mugged for their Popeye's chicken by our dudes. Now what the hell were four grown ass men going to do with one box of Popeye's chicken? From the video it looked like a single meal not even the family size:



Then there was the situation where a Minneapolis Popeye's refused to honor the "8 Pieces for $4.99" meal deal that caused a near riot, bnrought out the police, and even had one dude dry snitching to Popeye's corporate headquarters:



Most recently there was the problem of a Rochester Popeye's running out of chicken during a special:

This sad turn of events had Rochester residents pissed off and ended up making me mad too because the black folks in that news story were just acting ridiculous. "How we gonna feed our children", "They should have a truck out back full of chicken on ice", "We been really looking forward to this day"...WTF is wrong with the black populace of Rochester?



Look I haven't had Popeye's in a while but the last time I did I recall that the chicken tasted like ass, the sides were disgusting and the employees were barely functioning above a 3rd grade special ed level. The greasy chicken is not tasty enough to make people act a damn fool like this!

I know Michelle Obama has captured the hearts and minds of the majority of the U.S. public but I would trade her straight up for the awesomeness that is Chantal Biya, First Lady of Cameroon.
This chick has it all...gigantic hair, crazy clothes, chola eyebrows and best of all enough attitude to power the entire East coast.
Showing utter contempt for the other First Lady's of Africa (look at how pissed off the First Ladies of Namibia and Cape Verde are in the presence of her royal highness):

And other First Ladies do not fare any better; check her out throwing some serious side eye action at France's First Lady Carla Bruni:

And having a little left over for British First Lady Sarah Brown:

Her chapeau game is matched only by Aretha Franklin:

She works with the mentally handicapped:

The hair...Jiminy Cricket, wouldja just look at that hair:

Plus she bears an uncanny resemblance to Heat Miser:

PICK THE PERP


The objective of this wonderful online experience is to pick the actual perpetrator of a selected crime from a lineup of five shady characters.
I have to admit it is hard trying to pin a face to a crime....everyone in the lineup looks equally guilty to me but it is oh so much fun trying to get a streak of five correct answers.

52 year old Jo Ellen Nolan, of Akron, OH, was recently laid off from her job so in order to make some cash to pay her bills, Jo Ann decided to become a stripper.
I'll give you a second to re-read that sentence and no that is not a typo on her age. She is indeed attempting to become a stripper at 52 years old. I find it a bit hard to believe myself.
So anyway Jo Ann got hired at the swanky Club 1245 (where evidently only the most experienced ecdysiasts are allowed to practice their ancient artform) and on her first day of work, before she even had a chance to jiggle her saggy tube socks for spare change even, she gets beat down by a co-worker!
It seems that the other stripper , named Beautiful and reported to be in her 40's (what the hell kind of strip club is this!?!?!), felt so threatened by the devastating beauty that is Jo Ann Nolan that she went apeshit and began to beat Jo Ann all about the cranial region with her stripper shoes. And what is funny is that reportedly Beauty wasn't the only dancer feeling threatened by Jo Ann's presence, all of the girls working that day were pissed but Beautiful was the only one who felt the need to open a can of whoop ass over it. What have been saying all along about daytime strippers?
So let's just imagine what the median age of the gals at Club 1245 must be that they feel threatened by a 52 year old who (no offense to Jo Ann) looks about ten years older than her actual age. Let's be honest...Jo Ann looks like she has been rode hard and hung wet quite a few times in her life, people. She is a Bea Arthur 52 not a Raquel Welch 52 if ya get my meaning.
This economy needs to get turned around because the next step down from Club 1245 has to be granny porn.

A speedy How-To video on how to apply a quick weave to ya dome because I know today's career woman does not have the time to spend in the Korean market shopping for that Yack AND then get their gay best girlfriend to glue their hair on for them.



Jumpin' Jack Flash! That looks like a lot of hassle. I would just shave my head and wear an off the rack wig (it worked for my grandma!) before I would go through all of that nonsense with the chemicals and the sticking caps and scissors.
It looks dangerous too...like if you stood under the hot sun too long your head would go up in flames.
I am a bit confused as to why she didn't just cut her own hair into that style instead of going through all of those machinations but I am a man so I probably will never truly understand.
