Lou Dobbs was recently awarded a Lifetime Achievement Emmy and, with his usual low-key, even tones, he ended his CNN show yesterday by thanking a host of people who helped him obtain his 'lifetime' award, making the usual joke as to wondering how someone can win a 'lifetime achievement' award when...

The Cop And Doughnut Cliche Get Man Arrested
A Michigan man on a scavenger hunt walked into a police station (I know, I know, it sounds like a joke but it isn't). He asked the police officers present if they wouldn't mind posing for a picture he needed for his scavenger hunt, one in which a police officer was eating a doughnut. They agreed. In...

ANWR Saved From Drilling -- For Now
The hotly contested issue of oil drilling in the Arctic National Wildlife Refuge has been tossed out of a current bill circulating in the House. This is in complete opposition to an appropriations bill passed by the Senate which would allow for drilling in the Refuge. Also tossed out of the sweeping... Sign in to see full entry.

The Royals Are In The United States
Prince Charles and Princess Camilla of Wales came to America yesterday. They had dinner with the Bushes in Washington tonight. Aside from the fact that this will possibly be a question on Jeopardy! or a future edition of Trivial Pursuit, can anyone tell us why we Colonials should give a damn? I... Sign in to see full entry.

White Sox Stainless In Sweep
Cubs fans may be a little jealous right about now, considering that the Chicago White Sox have won the 2005 World Series. And they did it in style -- four straight. They looked like the team that burst out of Spring Training and amassed a 17 game lead in their division by the All-Star break. They... Sign in to see full entry.

Why CBS Is The Number One Watched Network On Television
The long-lasting news magazine 60 Minutes and CBS showed the rest of the networks the future tonight. Less commercial breaks, less commercials, companies paying for a larger amount of time or for the entire show. Tonight's segments were sponsored by Phillips. The news segments were longer, the...

Try The New And Improved Moron Weight Loss Program
The results of a study on the corrolation between seeing food and eating it was as you expect -- if a person does not see the food, there is a high probability they will not eat as much. Do you get the feeling that those lab-coated repositories of MENSA wannabes may have hid their own food just a... Sign in to see full entry.

Rush Limbaugh Is Still A Big Fat Idiot
I saw Limbaugh earlier tonight on Hannity/Coombs lauding Bush and slandering Democrats and liberals, which are basicly the same thing in Limbaugh's limited view. He also made the assinine comment that Dubya, despite his low popularity rating, was and would be seen by history as one of the greatest... Sign in to see full entry.

Another Thing About This Avian Flu Madness
With all the media hype surrounding the avian flu, that asian virus that has experts believing it to be the second coming of the Spanish Flu of 1917-18 -- and could be a distant cousin, cosidering that the Spanish Flu was a type of avian flu -- there are a few things the media is leaving out that...

Wars, Famine, Hurricanes, Tornadoes, Floods, Fires, Mudslides -- What Next?
With all the tragedies occurring in many parts of the world in the past year, you'd think that the list of catastrophic events was at an end -- but you'd be wrong. The United States is gearing up for a worldwide epidemic, a pandemic, of the bird-borne avian flu that is running amok in Southeast Asia... Sign in to see full entry.
