If 1 this is true, it’s awesome. Frankly, if my issues writing was as stupid as some of the things I’ve seen come across there, I wouldn’t admit to writing it either. It is with some trepidation that I even mention it, because a lot of bloggers post their opinion anonymously. IR...

A Hell's Kitchen diner found "something" unrecognizable in a salad, and it was sent back to the kitchen. All that drama, wait until after the commercial, and what the diner didn't recognize was the core of the lettuce. Much was made of this. Ramsey said that it would be better to serve an undercooke...

So it was Stefan, Hosea and Carla, and we all know who won. What do you think? I was relieved Stefan didn't. They said it best: great technical skill, no soul. Arrogant prick, too. Carla? She made the same mistake twice in letting others overrule her better instincts. It bit her hard today. Long-ter...

In his column today, Frank Rich correctly points out that America suffers from chronic denial. One of the most persistent cultural tics of the early 21st century is Americans’ reluctance to absorb, let alone prepare for, bad news. We are plugged into more information sources than anyone could have...

What's the worst thing that could happen to a band that is adamantly pro-DRM and anti-filesharing? Having an unreleased album leaked all over the Internet, of course, and by one of the Big Four labels to boot. U2's upcoming album, No Line on the Horizon, is slated for release on March 3, but it's al...

MATT DRISCOLL: NOT AS POPULAR AS IT SHOULD BE? >>> David Brooks is one of the few conservatives I can stomach. In fact, thanks in no small part to his cameos on the Jim Lehrer News Hour , I've actually come to really like the guy. I could imagine kicking back beers with the dude, and ma...

Although I have over 800 followers on Twitter, I would not call myself an avid Twitteror(er). I rarely update and sporadically read tweets. This is not for a lack of wanting to participate, it’s just that once I get started it’s hard to stop and I have things to do. With that said, I do find mys...

Last week, we noted some recent announcements from college newspapers cutting their Friday editions. Here’s the letter from the editor of the Ball State Daily News. Samantha Zilal puts the best possible spin on the decision: Suspending Friday publication is not a death sentence, and our Friday...

Congratulations to Darren Perron and the rest of the team at WCAX television on their GLAAD media award nomination. GLAAD, the Gay and Lesbian Alliance Against Defamation, hands out annual awards to those members of the media and entertainment worlds who demonstrate "fair, accurate and inclusiv...

OK, so we have here an idiotic lawsuit on absurdly lame legal grounds. So what? This nudnick deserves to get spanked by the judge, and then we move on. But, as usual, Conservative Reading Comprehension Disorder sets in, and the wingers get themselves all in a panic over shit they don’t underst...
