Amy Fisher Sex Tape?

What the hell? Why is it that when you are down in the dumps you can just have a sex tape released and all is well again? If you didn't already know, Amy Fisher, YES THE Amy Fisher, has a sex tape out. Apparently her husband put it out there. Good or bad thing?

Either way, in the interview that I read, all she talks about is how good it is to be paid just to go places or appear at a club or do interviews. Everyone knows who she is and what she has done in the past, what the hell are people doing encouraging this?

Whatever, that's news I guess.

Britney Spears: What's up With That? Part II

I am sure that you all read the story this morning about Britney Spears being taken to a hospital after a 3 hour standoff at her home. The standoff was caused by Britney not wanting K-fed to take their 2 young sons, as was planned.

You can see multiple photos online I am sure and one officer at the scene stated that Britney appeared to be under the influence of an unknown substance. We all know what that means, right?

Well, if you don't, it just means that she is still on the long train wreck scene in a movie that will not end soon enough!

Man Saws House in Half

Did you see this story? Apparently a man, upset that he couldn't buy a house, decided to take a saw to it and cut it IN HALF! Yes, in half. On the MSN.com website there is a video as well. According to reports, a friend of this guy was building the house and was supposed to sell it to him when completed. When his friend said no go, dude went crazy and cut it up. Apparently he went all the way around and the only thing that was keeping the home together was GRAVITY. Dude gets to go to court now and explain. How nice!

The Jena 6 - What if they were all White?

I can't help myself with this one. What if all the boys were white? All of them, all 6 where white. It can happen, right? Kids hate other kids and they get a crazy idea from the "great idea maker" in the group and then one kid is in the hospital, while the others try and stay out of prison. Would we be getting this kid of news at the top of every hour? Maybe for the first day, but not like we are getting right now.

It's ridiculous to compare the two, but you just have to ask yourself, what the hell?

Just reported on Google News that 2 students from Delaware State University were shot and are listed in serious condition. The shooter is still at large. The two have been taken to an area hospital, and are likely to survive.

OJ Simpson has to be Stopped!

What next for this z-lister? The guy is obviously hard up for money, doesn't want to pack groceries for money or get a real job with his sports background. Now he is being accused of robbing a guy? What the heck is next, kidnapping and a hostage situation leading to murder suicide? Man, it's been a while since he made quality news, but I must say that this is quite an interesting story so far. I am sure it will get better.

Cracking Down on Showing Crack

Just wanted to comment real quick on an article I read at lunch time. Police starting to crack down on teens wearing pants so low their underpants show. It's about friggin' time! Why can't they just fine the manufacturers that make a pair of pants with a huge ass that hangs to a teens knees? Oh yeah, they would just buy larger pants, right? Oh well, I can't wait to see how far this goes.

Plane Explodes in Japan

Passengers sitting on a run way waiting for their plane to park, were surprised by an explosion that happened only one minute after the plane stop moving. 165 passengers including the pilot, who jumped out at the last minute, escaped without injury.

There wasn't any distress call or mayday before the plane landed, according to the traffic controller. The fire was put out in under one hour. Flights to and from Japan are probably discounted :)

Hurrican Dean Packs a Whoopin'

Sometimes I wonder why people in "tornado alley", or anywhere near the Gulf of Mexico can be ok with living there. Year after year they get pummeled with tornadoes or hurricanes and they just keep building.

Am I missing something?

Barry Bonds, Big Deal, right?

So, Barry Bonds finally smacked the home run that will make him forever famous. But will it be remembered as the home run that broke the record, or will it be remembered as a home run that tainted baseball? I say that because most people will always remember the home run, but will only associate it with his alleged steroid use.

Bummer for Barry I guess, he should have thought about that before he was getting muscle mass faster than the incredible hulk.

Britney Spears: What's up With That?

Has the whole world gone crazy? I am the only one around here who gives a shit about the rules? Every morning I wake up and by the time I get to the frontpage of MSN.com, there is already a crap load of trashy news in the entertainment industry that wasn't there the morning before.

Today I read about Britney's OK photoshoot that went nuts and how she walked away with thousands of dollars of clothes and jewelry. Why is she still in the spotlight? I wonder how long it will be before we read about her being found face first in a pile of cocaine and red bull cans all over the room.

She has lost it. There is not a doubt in my mind that she has gone off the deep end and all I can think about is "What about the children?" Who takes care of these poor things when mommy is out all night sucky red bull and smoking like a chimney?

Just another example as to why "kids" cannot have children. They will grow up never knowing their mother, or father for that matter, and most likely be as messed up as the parents are. Too bad, for us that is.

Worlds Tallest Man Meets Worlds Shortest

Imagine being taller than 7 feet! Now, imagine being only 29 inches tall. Now, imagine seeing these two people meet. It's real, there is such a thing and it happened this week. When I read the story about how the two meet, I couldn't stop thinking about what each of them was thinking when they saw the other.

Shortest man: "Maybe he can get me some cookies
from the jar atop the fridge?!"

Tallest man: "Now he is exactly what I need to
tie my shoes, my back is killing me!"

Ok, ok. I know it's cruel. What would you think they were thinking when they met? Leave your answer in the comments section.

Baby Jessica Back in the News

Everyone remembers "Baby Jessica", right? But does anyone realize that she hasn't been in the news ONE time since she was rescued from a 59 hour ordeal involving the well she had fallen into?

That's right. She hasn't given an interview or even gone back to the well before her interview with TODAY host Matt Lauer.

"Baby Jessica", whos real name is Jessica McClure Morales, says “For me to come back 20 years later, it was a little difficult because I had no earthly idea or anything of what had ever really honestly happened there.”

I can't imagine it was a very pleasing feeling, but she was only 18 months old. What do people expect her to remember? I guess that is maybe the reason why she hasn't done any interviews about her ordeal. Read more...

Paris in, Paris out, Paris in and shake it all about

I see this is all over the internet by now, but I figured that I would toss my two cents into the kitty.


I think this is just a coincidence, but this post about how Paris thought she could do what she wanted is interestingly close to my post about brats, don't you think? We all know the stupid story so I am not even going to go there, but what the hell is going on here? It's all about the money. Her lawyers see her money, they play the "she's a mental case" card, maybe the judge who excused her saw some money signs, heck, maybe even the "private" doctor saw some money. That's all it takes and the "brats" in society get to do what they want.

Oh wait though, she's going back to jail. I am sure it's not because she looked like a total retard leaving the jail and the publicity would be bad. Nah, she probably just wanted to make sure she did the right thing, like not violating parole in the first place :)

Perfect quote from the movie "Liar Liar", "Stop breaking the law asshole".

www.FindKelsey.com

The 26 year old suspect in the kidnapping and killing of an 18 year old woman may have had a www.myspace.com page.

On this page, it is reported by MSNBC, that there were bizarre claims of "eating small children". Kelsey Smith, 18, was abducted as she left a Target store in her home town. Immediately a website, http://www.findkelsey.com/ was created in the hopes of finding Kelsey alive. Those hopes were dashed when her body was found in a wooded area near Grandview, Missouri, less than 4 days after she was kidnapped. The kidnapping was caught on video in the parking lot of the Target store she was leaving at the time.

The website maybe taken down since her body has been found, but the family has yet to decide this.
