Here's to hoping Michele Bachmann announces she is running for president every single day for the rest of her life.
Ever seen a nine-year-old underprivileged kid perform stand-up comedy before a live, nightclub audience? No, that's not some out-take scene from a David Lynch movie. Jamie Masada saw it first in his mind and then proceeded to make it happen.
[Deep inside a large white house, there is counseling...] "Do I have to lie down?" "Not at all, Mr. President! Not at all! Whatever is comfortable for you."
A: Will this train let me off here? At this stop? B: Ha. A: Pardon? B: Your question. It is absurd. It's the weekend, don't you know? The trains. They will not go where you'd expect.
With several states around the country undercutting workers' rights and passing anti-collective bargaining laws, AFL-CIO has come out swinging on many fronts, including the comedic one.
Being Canadian, my country is An Inconvenient Proof; with King Harpernicus now at the center of our little corner of the universe if we can dig it, cut it, drain it and ship it, we will.
It's interesting to be in a group representing so-called peers, which is the whole point of a jury, yet, looking around and listening to conversations, for the most part they're people with whom I have little in common. But maybe that's a good thing.

Rebecca Black's "Friday" has been removed from YouTube. I repeat this news for it bears repeating. How shall we learn to sail through our mundane, workaday lives? Friday, Friday, how shall we continue to get down with you, Friday?
CNN hosted the first GOP debate of the year that involved actual candidates and some clear winners did emerge: the 99.99% of Americans who neglected to watch it.
Nevertheless, the overwhelming refrain I hear most can be summed up in a single pair of words: Who cares? Who isn't a bit of a (hopefully healthy, consensual, tactful) pervert in this day and age?
This week kicked off with a much better-than-average Tony Awards and a very entertaining Republican presidential debate (despite the lack of Sarah Palin).
CNN should be called the Cluster-F Network. They take educated, articulate hosts like Dr. Drew, and turn them into traffic cops. I'd love to see a 9-hour montage of those guys just saying 'hold that thought' over and over again.
I'm going to go out on a limb and assume that Warren won't find bin Laden's carcass. This, naturally, proves nothing, but I imagine he doesn't care. He's already gotten his name splashed across the headlines.
