I can’t believe Jesus would wear jeans like this. They’re so eighties.

The FCC fined CBS over a half a million dollars because for several seconds viewers got a glimpse of Janet Jackson’s surgically-enhanced boobie. Infinity Broadcasting, which employs Howard Stern, has been fined in excess of three million dollars for sexual comments deemed “indecent.” Everyone’s scared of nudity, everyone’s scared of sex, and everyone is horrified […]

Just in case you’re not a net nerd like me, and I’m assuming you aren’t, one-time presidential candidate Arianna Huffington has started a blog, and boy it’s a doozy. She has posts on there from Spinal Tap and Simpsons genius Harry Shearer to Mr. Helter Skeleter himself Charlie Manson. Old Charlie’s actually a pretty funny […]

Tonight Leigh and I saw Dave Attell perform at the Empire Theater. What a diverse crowd. It was like being at the carnival. On the front row were people in business suits, and then in the row directly in front of me and Leigh (which was row 3) there was a woman who looked like […]

Blogging will be light through the end of this week. Papers to turn in, exams to prepare for, yadda yadda yadda. If I find something funny I may post, but don’t expect anything more substantial than that. Good luck to everyone else finishing up the semester. I hope you’re not as haggard and unsure of […]
