Playboy, Palin, and the Jerking At The Car Wash Blues
Just catching up from a full weekend of work...
Apparently the economy is so bad, even nudity is not a guaranteed sale anymore. Playboy Magazine is laying off 80 employees. And not the good kind of "laying" either. If we can't count on naked pictures of women to drive the economy, what next? Is free coffee at AA meetings going to drive Budweiser out of business? Even our desperation is getting desperate.
Are those DirectTV "Poltergeist" commercials the unintentionally creepiest ever or what? I don't want to see Craig T. Nelson plugging products to start with, but when you pair him with a little girl that's been dead for twenty years, it gets even worse.
Colin Powell has endorsed Barrack Obama for President. I kept waiting to see the headline on FOX News, "Black Guy Endorses Other Black Guy."
Michigan police have arrested a man for having sex with a vacuum at a car wash. Check out the writeup at The Smoking Gun.com. This guy rode up to the car wash on a bicycle with a pocket full of quarters, just looking for love. I'm not sure what the charge is, but is does make me a bit wary of using the hoses to clean out my car.
The new internet fad is sending out this picture of John McCain from the debate with his tongue sticking out. That seems a bit unnaturally long to me. I think someone from the McCain campaign Photo Shopped it in an attempt to attract the 24-39 year-old female demographic.
US Magazine is reporting that Governor"Palin Makes SNL Debut" I like the way they put that. "Debut" makes it sound like she's going to be a recurring player. Like if the whole politics thing doesn't work out, she'll come back next week and debut her new "Wasilla Girl" character on "SNL Update."
The new James Bond movie, "Quantum of Solace" is coming out next month. I thought the last movie was great, but what the Hell does "Quantum of Solace" mean? That sounds like some kind of Sci-Fi Network movie starring Bruce Boxleitner.
Finally, the longtime host of "Soul Train" was arrested in LA this weekend. Don Cornelius got busted for illegal possession of peace, love, and soul.

I'm glad I'm not the only one creeped out by those "Poltergeist" commercials. I mean, as if the movie wasn't creepy enough that it scared the shit out of me since like 1983....don't try to cash in on a dead kid.

I was expecting your opinion of Chinese Democracy (the single) today . . . any thoughts???
