Dudes continue uninterrupted exercise of divine right to annex uteruses as political tools, almost as if International Women’s Day had no impact whatsoever! Whups! Looks like I missed International Women’s Day. I was preoccupied with extensive preparations for my “Dancing with the ...

TALLAHASSEE, AP–Bobby Bowden appealed to the NCAA to include wins from his past before. He may have to do it again. Florida State will appeal the NCAA ruling in an academic fraud case including the vacating of 14 wins, but should the University lose the appeal Bowden will likely try a new tack...

Most of the people who so disliked the policies and administration of George Bush wanted to see him impeached - all legal-like and proper. The right isn't so kind and decent to Obama. After slightly more than 50 days in office, the wingnuttery on cable TV want to see armed rebellion, revolt, or just...

...Then Don't Complain When You Don't Receive Semper Fi OORAY! Greeting. Good God. We're only 50-plus days into the reign of TelePrompTer Christ Superstar. How do I get off this train wreck....

I've mentioned this before: I'm not a big fan of animal death in film. That being said, I'm fine with it when it's necessary (and not a 20-tissue family film). I love pit bulls, but the bodies in No Country for Old Men made chilling sense. As did the dog death in Watchmen, or rat devastation in Will...

"Oh, it didn't pass? OK. So we still need to pass it? OK. So we'll try to pass that one for you, too. But that's why we need it. And of course Obama supports that, our Congress supports that, our Senate supports that. I thought we did pass it, so we will try to get that. But that's exactly why we ne...

By now, you've probably already heard of 23-year-old Amir Shiekh, accused of beating a 74 year old George Mirzayan over a parking spot in Upper Darby Monday afternoon. And while the crime itself is despicable and I sure hope Mr. Shiekh gets what's coming to him in terms of jail time and/or fines, th...

All because a Jew showed up to play a little tennis. More here and here. It's tragically comic to watch the world turn itself inside out and destroy its own society so as not to insult Islam, a political, social, military, cultural ideology of suprmacism, suppression, hate and violence....

Fat Possum's efforts to diversify beyond their largely blues-based roster of artists has lead the label into the realm of noisy pop with recent additions Wavves and Crocodiles. I recently posted about Wavves, and after checking out (thanks Stereogum) Crocodiles, I gotta say Fat Possum is 2 for 2. Cr...

I'm... scared. I'm very scared. The doctors told me that if I lost the weight, my period would regulate itself. And I have been losing weight -- went from a size 32 to about 24 -- and... well, I don't know. This is the third time today I've had to take painkillers for cramps. As for the... rest, it'...
