"One should either write ruthlessly what one believes to be the truth, or else shut up." — Arthur Koestler

My Favorite Kardashian

  Forget about Kim and Kourtney. It’s definitely Khloe, thanks to this Tweet she sent Thursday: I’m sure My Favorite Kardashian™ will want to check out Herman Cain’s article, “In Defense of American Exceptionalism,” from the March issue of The American Spectator. And then she’ll want to join the grassroots online army at Citizens for […]

Is Christina Aguilera On The Same Casey Jones Train As Charlie Sheen?

by Smitty I was introducing a colleague to the fine addiction that is the RSS reader when he brought up a blog that is arguably more shameless that this one (if such is possible): What Would Tyler Durden Do? WWTDD? is a Fight Club reference, and I must out myself as the only human being […]

Charlie Sheen, Victim

Last week, Charlie Sheen got himself denounced by the Anti-Defamation League after a radio interview in which he mocked Two and a Half Men producer Chuck Lorre as “Chaim Levine” (for the record, Lorre’s birth name is Charles Levine).
