  Do you remember the “grunge music”? It was a short-lived variant of meathead stadium rawk featuring incoherent wails of discontent, terrible music and a sort of homeless-lumberjack-sasquatch costume. Nobody liked it. Anyway, one of the “grunge sensations” was called “Pearl Jam” which, we think, is some sort of

  I wrote on TMV about Taslima, a poet and doctor, against whom a fatwa to behead her had been called ….for she dared to write poetry about “honor killings”; she was imprisoned for writing about women taken to the stadium and stoned to death while the mullahs present were laughing.

  When I was growing up, the government of the United States of America seemed to take one obligation very seriously: setting an example for the rest of the world on how to conduct a country’s internal affairs. I’m willing to conceded that perhaps this perception was based largely on propaganda that I was fed as a young lad during my

  With Alberto saying Adios as Attorney General, the rumor mill is churning about possible replacements. The consensus seems to be that DHS Director Michael Chertoff is indeed on the short list. And while some may say he isn’t that bad of a choice given his background in criminal justice and as a deputy AG, we would all to well to remember

  Today was a day of vindication for our four legged friends in the canine world. A dog killer met with justice and the President’s bulldog will no longer be in a position to administer injustice. Michael Vick will likely be headed to the big house and Alberto “Fredo” Gonzales, who has been in the dog house for months, will finally

  Mobile telecommunications behemoth Verizon Wireless has decided to get into the nanny business - or more correctly, your personal moral choice business.
