PSA: Amazon's Veronica Mars sale

Longtime readers of this blog will remember how much I loved the too-short-lived Veronica Mars. So I'd like to let you know that Amazon is currently selling the first two seasons of the show for fifteen bucks each. Enjoy!

A gaffe is when a politician accidentally tells the truth

Just ask Senator Bob Corker (R-TN).

We're heading out of town for a bit...

...so posting will be light-to-nonexistent for a bit. In the meantime, enjoy this year's Doctor Who Children In Need special, which is simply fantastic, even if I personally would have switched the billing order. Seniority and all that...

THIS JUST IN!

Airport screening is a joke. A bad joke that wastes everyone's time, millions of dollars, and does absolutely nothing to make anyone safer.

UPDATE: Don't worry, that won't stop TSA from coming up with new ways to waste everyone's time and damage your expensive electronic equipment.

Things like this make me miss THE BRAVE & THE BOLD

Batman meets Tim Gunn.

Kids, you prayed and you failed!

The moral is, don't pray!

Hey!

Hey! I have a question: Why do the e-mails I get from the Obama and Dodd campaigns all start off with "Hey!"? Will this continue if either one wins the election?

What he said.

This bit from a recent Lance Mannion post needs to be repeated, loudly, everywhere:

Before we go any further, a note to any members of the Media who may be reading. The Catholic League is not a religious group, it is not a Catholic group, it is a political pressure group pushing a reactionary political agenda that has virtually nothing to do with the teachings of the Catholic Church. If you feel you need a Catholic to give you a good quote for your story, the Church has people on their payroll who'll be glad to talk to you, and none of them is Bill Donohue.

Alternately, you can call up the theology departments at one of the many Catholic colleges and univerisites and ask somebody there to explain things to you.

You don't need Donohue and his minions for anything.

Thank you.

"Is Artie Bremer here tonight? Where's Artie Bremer!?"

He's right over there, apparently. Weird. I wonder how many people today have ever heard of Arthur Bremer. Or even of George Wallace...

It's not that I didn't enjoy "Ed"

...at least for the season and a half or so before he turned into a deranged stalker, and I'm always glad to see Tom Cavanaugh guest-star on Scrubs, but when exactly did he become made entirely out of David Gest?

The greatest movie never made

This is completely and totally unsafe to watch at work, school, or even, probably, at home. On the other hand, it's completely hysterical and awesome.
