Second, Blog-God and Gracious Host Pixy Misa tears the MSM a new one for ridiculing the notion that bloggers are journalists. It's a good piece and well worth reading, even if it is a familiar topic.
Third, Paul has some really cool vintage video of some familair technology... from 1968!

On a related note, why do we always say "F*cking-A"?? Isn't F*ck WAY higher up than a$s on the scale of naughty words? Shouldn't it be "F'ing A$s"???
Just a thought....

I've discussed American Idol many many times on this page. But we haven't discussed the American Idol controversy brewing over Corey Clark and his story that he had an affair with American Idol judge Paula Abdul and that she promised him a career and bought him gifts.
Here's LaShawn's experiment: Corey Clark is a cad
Here's mine: Corey Clark sucks. Also, Cory Clark sucks, and for those of you who can't spell into google: Corey Clark sux
If you came here looking for a story on the ABC "Primetime Live" special Fallen Idol with Corey Clark, go here for more info...
If you're a regular reader and want to weigh in, you know where the "comment" button is....

If I could be a scientist (with unlimited grant $$)... I'd set up a state of the art research facility in a little beach town and study how the human brain develops and take lots of breaks to walk in the sand...
If I could be a farmer... I'd raise all kinds of animals and have acres and acres of grapevines....
If I could be a musician... I'd be rich, dammit. RICH! And I would have the coolest tours, with special effects and bubbles and toys for the audience...
If I could be a doctor... I'd cure neurological disease
If I could be a painter... I'd fill my house with murals of things and people I love
If I could be a gardener... I'd have the perfect Southern garden: Wisteria, honeysuckle, roses, jasmine, dogwood, and azaleas, and it would be beautiful with minimal input from me..... Damn I'm going to miss the flowers....
If I could be a missionary... (OK, Rose and Bou both made the joke first, so I won't) I'd spread the Gospel of Dean Smith to the unwashed masses of dookie...
If I could be a chef... I'd be a pastry chef and open a bakery with my friend
If I could be an architect... I'd build my parents their dream house
If I could be a linguist... (again, the joke has already been made) I'd speak French, Armenian, Spanish, English and Polish fluently (I already know how to swear in all of those languages)
If I could be a psychologist... I'd tell people to grow up and quit whining.
If I could be a librarian... I'd be second in command to my mom, the greatest librarian I know 
If I could be an athlete... I'd play Baseball in the summer and Hockey in the winter
If I could be a lawyer... I'd sue for the practice of common sense
If I could be an innkeeper... I'd run a victorian B&B on the central CA coast. That would be heaven.
If I could be a professor...I'd teach Neuroscience
If I could be a writer... I'd write novels I'd like to read
If I could be a backup dancer... Naah. Too many ex-Fresnans in the biz already....
If I could be a llama-rider... I'd break these guys' backs
If I could be a bonnie pirate... Arrgh. I'd sail the high seas with Ith and Nin and the Pirate before retiring to work in the Pirates of the Caribbean ride as an extra (Yo Ho, Yo Ho, A pirate's life for me.....)
If I could be a midget stripper... Wait, isn't that what moms do when their kids get messy??
If I could be a proctologist... I'd certainly try to remember the difference between brown-nosing and being a sh*t head: Depth Perception
If I could be a TV-Chat Show host... I'd beat Oprah's ratings, and still not be a smarmy arrogant condescencing b*tch as often as she is....
If I could be an actor... I'd make good movies. Not intelligent movies, or artsy movies. Movies people can actually watch!
If I could be a judge... I'd make a law requiring people to take responsibility for their own stupidity.
If I could be a Jedi... My lightsaber would be green, and I would have a purple Jedi robe. Oh, and I'd have Princess Leia hair, too.
Ok, that's it for me. Now I get to choose. Mwahahahahahaha.
Duck, Duck, Goose!
Eeny Meeny Miny Mo!
Ink, Pink, you (don't) stink!
In case you can't recognize your own links, that's Ben, Blogbaby Paul, and Ith! (all of whom, somehow, seem to have missed out on being tagged as of yet... and who should all have pretty interesting answers....)

Your Birthdate: November 10 |
Your birth on the 10th day of the month adds a tone of independence and extra energy to your life. The number 1 energy suggest more executive ability and leadership qualities than you path may have indicated. A birthday on the 10th of any month gives greater will power and self-confidence, and very often a rather original approach.
This 1 energy may diminish your ability and desire to handle details, preferring instead to paint with a broad brush. You are sensitive, but your feeling stay somewhat repressed. You have a compelling manner that can be dominating in many situations. |
DH's is not quite as accurate....
Your Birthdate: November 15 |
With a birthday on the 15th of any month, you are apt to have really strong attachments to home, family and domestic scene. The 1 and 5 equaling 6, provide the sort of energy that makes you an excellent parent or teacher. You are very responsible and capable.
This is an attractive and an attracting influence. You like harmony in your environment and strive to maintain it. You tend to learn by observation rather than study and research.
You may like to cook, but you probably don't follow recipes. This number shows artistic leanings and would certainly support an talents that may be otherwise in your makeup. You're a very generous and giving person, but perhaps a bit stubborn in ways. |

74% Republican. | "To you, Fox News really is 'Fair and Balanced'." |
From SWWBO
Update: My DH took the quiz and, well, it's pretty right on (much to his parent's liberal chagrin....):
41% Republican. | "Congratulations, you're a swing voter. When they say 'Soccer Mom', they mean you. Every Democratic ad on the TV set was made just for your viewing enjoyment. Don't you feel special?" |
