Burlesque?! This year must have been harder up for comedy than I thought.

No, really, Burlesque?! Now, it may win the Razzie just so the Golden Raspberry Society can be bitchy.

Nothing about SPL? I heard they just gave all their upper management cushy raises, just weeks after huge layoffs and demotions to library staff...

"Sometimes, she stuffs the generic cereal into brand-name boxes so her son won't notice."

hmmm... I'm not sure if I can feel so sorry for these "new hungry"

"Tobacco enforcement?" You guys enforce tobacco laws? Shit, that would be unheard-of here.

So wait, tobacco enforcement agents can't tell the difference between a paper tube that ignites, burns down, smells and causes users to exhale copious amounts of smoke, and a piece of plastic with an LED on the end?

They must be really, really bad at their jobs, because I think most lower primates could be easily trained to make this distinction in about five minutes.

Yay, Lee Remick! Yay, Go-Betweens! First single! I love how raw they sound. The wonderful Lindy Morrison hadn't joined yet; they're much more choppy and New Wave sounding here than they were later. Oh, I'd kill for a copy of this on Able. I have the Postcard one, "I Need Two Heads".

Better Steele than somebody competent...

The E-ciagarette issue is the very definition of nanny statism. Other people seeing a person with an e-cigarrette get confused and light up, causing second-hand smoke. What about someone who doesn't like the real cigarettte saying something like, "Hey, you can't smoke here"?

I don't understand why on earth they don't make the e-cigarettes bright red or something, so they can easily be told from tobacco tubes.

Isn't this argument for banning eCigarettes equivalent to banning diabetes patients from injecting insulin because we can't tell if it's heroin? Or banning 16oz cans of energy drinks because they look like Rainier or Pabst tallboys?

Please wait...
