Common Sense

Like that protest this morning at Chet’s office. An enterprising reporter would have been there, camera in hand ready to take some quotes. I stayed up all night watching the Jaws-athon on Encore and didn’t get to work until after 8 p.m.

Kim Kardashian and Paris Hilton are no longer BFFs. Kim’s stepping out of Paris’ shadow to have her own sex tape and to be featured herself in magazines as the “New Paris.”
“Even when I would talk to editors of magazines and other media outlets about featuring Kim, they would comment on how they are moving […]

I thought I would break my silence by shouting out to some bitching photographers. I mean that literally; one is my bitch by extension and the other is my bitch-in-law. Take that, straight from my pimp hand to your lips!
I also wanted to mention that I’ve changed my Top 8 around somewhat. My new No. […]

To be honest, I’m a little hesitant to just jump into someone’s corner for 2008.
I like Obama. I like his personality, his charisma and I definitely like where he stands on Iraq. But I’m tired of just having a Democratic litmus test that candidates need to fit to get the nomination. I don’t want to […]

Now that Democrats have taken both houses of Congress, we can actually have a debate on the merits of what we should be doing. I’ve long been of the opinion that we never should have gone in and that we should be leaving as […]

That’s really misleading, since I cannot possibly make real predictions. I’m a cripple, not a psychic.
But I can think out loud, as it were, about how I feel this election is shaping up now that early voting has started and the big day is only two weeks away.
First off, the gubernatorial race: Call me crazy, […]
