More Loss Of Great American Lives

And we're not talking about Iraq...

Kevin DuBrow, lead singer of the band Quiet Riot, died on November 25, 2007. Promoting a tactile version of synesthesia with the hit song "Cum On Feel The Noize" back in 1983, Kevin was found dead in his Las Vegas home. Pending an autopsy, police speculate that he did, in fact, have his "cock out".

Casey Calvert, guitarist for emo-punk-goth-screamo-folk-gospel band Hawthorne Heights, died on November 24, 2007. Not really knowing who Hawthorne Heights were, MTV reverted to interviewing a more-popular friend of Casey's, Fall Out Boy's Pete Wentz. "Uh, yeah, that sucks man. I was flat-ironing my hair when I heard and I remember when me and him were like, doing stuff and I was like 'dude, who are you again?' I didn't wanna sound like a dick but... yeah. Did you see me modeling for Dolce? I was hot".

Dr. James Robert Cade died today at the all too tragic age of 80. Dr. Cade was the inventor of Gatorade, and the sports world is turned upside down. "This is worse than the death of Vin Scully", stated newly contracted slugger Alex Rodriguez. "Wait, he's still alive? Eww".

And yet, Britney Spears and Lindsay Lohan... Still alive. Yes, this is proof that there is no god.

Maybe Violent Video Games Are Good For Kids

Well, at least for a girl in Tucker GA. "Two men tried to kidnap the girl near Tucker Middle School Monday night, police said.The 14-year-old was on her way home from dance practice when a black van pulled up, and the men tried to grab her, Police said, adding that the girl got away when she stabbed one of the men in the arm with a pencil. The girl was not seriously hurt, police said."

Of course, the right to do was to just let the men kidnap you and take you to a far away place and have their way with you so that maybe you could either escape and write a tell-all or die and have a new kidnapping law made after you. Stabbing a guy with a pencil is wrong because violence is wrong, and you lose your victimized glory at the end. That's what our founding fathers did when... Oh wait, they didn't. They actually defeated the British and fought, with violence, to defend their principals and freedom.

So A message to the kids: Choose your violence wisely, it could mean the difference between glory or more Marylin Manson album sales.

This Day in American History

On November 18th, 1883, American and Canadian railroads institute five standard continental time zones, ending the confusion of thousands of local times.

Life before this was pretty hard for the bi-coastal traveler, as they didn't quite understand what "Train-Lag" was. "This is some fucked-ass homo shit!" Exclaimed President James A. Garfield. "I get off this train to a campaign lunch in Oregon, and I was two hours late! What the fuck is up with these homos! I didn't even know that this was a state, next thing you know, they're changing the position of the sun! Fucktards."

Don't Fuck With The Writers

Huckabee And Norris Vs. Lame Liberal Issues

Ron Paul Starting New Government

And he's starting with making currency with his likeness on it! Go Ron! I'm sick of these morons feeding me utopian lies about political systems that are "for the people". Democracy, Communism, it's all bullshit! The Roman Empire lasted 800 years and they didn't give a shit about the people. As your new constituent/lemming, I hereby pledge allegiance to your greatness and the political mandates that you preach, while smiting the people and issues you abhor!

Oh... It was a campaign stunt... Ahem...

I hereby re-align myself with the United States and it's not-so-perfect-and-okay-for-now political system.

Semper Fi.

Lohan Jailed For 84 Minutes

Yeah, yet again another celeb shows us how our justice system works. Not that she has money and was able to buy freedom, but the overcrowding of our prison system. The real losers? Two people actually. Me: She wasn't in there long enough to have some hot lesbian prison sex and write about it in a tell-all, Africa: She wasn't in there long enough to have a life changing epiphany and decide to join the celeb ranks and bring even more awareness to a place saturated with it.

My loss is more tragic though.

Editorial: What Is The Lessor Of Two Crimes?

Beating the shit out of a white kid for no good reason, or hanging nooses in an area where black kids hang out?

Well, according to the thousands of people marching today in Washington DC, it's the latter.

Mostly upset about the "Jena 6", protesters, lead by Al Sharpton and Martin Luther King III are calling on the federal government to get tougher on hate crimes. Several incidents involving noose hanging are springing up, but under current federal law, it's a state issue. Unless the build one big enough to span two states, it's out of the Fed's hands. Undaunted, and severely ignorant to the way federal law works, marchers still demanded they crack down.

My beef is not with the Jena 6, or with the people hanging nooses, it's with the "leaders" of the black community that insist on calling racism on anything they can. Obviously hanging nooses is a racist act, but to rally the way they're doing today is stupid. Al Sharpton does more to divide the races and promote racism than any noose can, and spends way too much energy fighting white people on behalf of the black people than actually doing anything to fix the problems in the black community itself. Propagating a culture of blaming your problems on everyone else does not help your people.

And for the noose hangers? They're getting the reaction they wanted. So today is lose-lose.

We Lost A Great American Today

Norman Mailer, American author, died today at age 84. Author of "The Naked and the Dead," "The Armies of the Night" and "The Executioner's Song," Mailer was also known for his brash personality, and for never backing down from a fight. He pissed off feminists by writing "Prisoner of Sex", and also, well, stabbing his second wife after a party. (That's actually true). Most of us know him from the articles we didn't read in Playboy, and when you go back and read them, you can tell that he knew what was going on.

"-- So as the sun sets on the mountains of Da Nang, I heard the whisper of our GI's, and they spoke to me... Wait, fuck it, no one's reading this shit anyway. Did you see the tits on the page 14 girl? Man! I would love to spray some of my napalm on that!"

A Science Lesson

This Day in American History

On November 9th, 1862, Union General Ambrose Burnside assumes command of the Army of the Potomac, after George B. McClellan is removed. This would be the general's calling card, and an important part of American fashion history. Gen. Burnside was known for having an extreme mustache, and the term "sideburns" came from him. Here's an excerpt from his 1875 biography "Fuck, Wars Suck Ass".

"I grew this stache' back in the 40's, thinking it would get me some pussy, and it worked! Girls would be like 'Mmm, that facial hair makes me want to turn into a harlot, wanna see some of my ankle?' Boom! Next thing you know, I was fisting her anus. That's where I really got the term 'sideburn', cause' I'd fist them so hard it would burn up their insides. I don't know who changed the term to be about hair on the side of your head, I think that's gay."

Are You On The Border With Mexico?

Have you witnessed the atrocities committed by Mexican drug cartels on American soil, and also noticed the insouciant nature of the Mexican and US government towards this invasion of our country? Do you feel helpless as the government and the media seem to ignore this moth gnawing at the fabric of our society??

Then e-mail the man that is doing what everyone else can't, he's making a shitfit out of nothing. His name is Glenn Beck, and he'll sensationalize your story better than anyone else!

Well, I saw this on his show last night, and he gave a special e-mail that he's setting up just for this on the show, which I can't find anywhere. So I'm gonna make it up. shitonakitten@glennbeck.com.

This Day in American History

On November 7th, 1917, In Petrograd, Russia, Bolshevik leaders Vladimir Lenin and Leon Trotsky lead revolutionaries in overthrowing the Provisional Government, and thus giving power to the Soviets.

"Hey asshole, that's not American history!" You might exclaim while eating cake frosting and watching CSI. It's true, this was a important part of Russian history, but this single event would help shape the United States we have today. Opening a new front in WW2, giving Joseph McCarthy a reason to be put in history books, inadvertently getting us on the moon, and hiring really good graphic artists to make semi-enslavement propaganda "hip" to kids today, it's a fact that without the Soviet Union, the US would be a completely different place.

ICE In Trouble Again

No, not Ice T, Ice Cube, or the man with the icy career Vanilla Ice, no we're talking about the Immigration and Customs Enforcement department's head Julie Myers. She was hosting a Halloween party when one of her guests dressed up in prison stripes, dreadlocks, and black face paint. Wen word got out that she not only let the guy have free booze, but also gave him a prize for "originality", she immediately backpedaled, apologizing for the "deeply offensive" costume and "regretting that it ever happened".

Racist humor tears at the very fabric of our society and divides us as a people... but only when white people do it. What's that smell? Oh! It's the pot of refried beans I'm making that I bought with food stamps that I don't deserve and welfare money that I mostly send to my family in Mexico. Viva La Racism!

This Day in American History

On November 5th, 1979, the Ayatollah Khomeini declares the USA to be "the great Satan" after taking hostages at the US Embassy just a day earlier. Here's a transcript of the meeting between the Ayatollah and his top adviser before the declaration.

Ayatollah: Man, I think I wrapped this towel on too tight --
Adviser: Your greatness, I have your prepared speech ready for you.
Ayatollah: Sweet! Lemmie see that... "The Great Satan"? I think that's bad grammar.
Adviser: Well, you will be speaking in Farsi, not English.
Ayatollah: Ah, good point... But I like "Country of Fat Homo Bitch-Fucks" better.
Adviser: ... Um... Okay, well, this will stir up more anger within the fundamentalist community.
Ayatollah: Really? "The Great Satan"? I guess you're right. Get the Jimmy Carter effigies ready, we're about to start a Greehad on these mother --
Adviser: -- It's "Jihad", sire.
Ayatollah: Whatever.

The Writer's Strike Will Not Affect The American Culture

Thou we are totally cool and stuff with the writers, we'll be all up on this shit yo! Well, some of our peeps have to go hold those sign things, so we had to bring in some amateurs to write our stuff until the wga and producer's come to a more better agreeance. Yeah... that's all...

This Day in American History

On November 4th, 1964, Lyndon Baines Johnson is elected as the thirty-sixth president of the United States of America after finishing out the term left (by force, some will say) by John F. Kennedy. This would prove to be a hectic term for LBJ; the start of the Vietnam war, sending national guard troops to a schools in the segregated south to allow black children to sit the same classes as the white children, (and thus creating Eminem), and a propensity for teabagging transsexual hookers, defined his presidency. Although hated amongst conservative ranks for his spending, the botched war effort, and his inability to get the hooker to bring him a pizza (mastered by Bill Clinton), LBJ stood the test of history as one of the greatest presidents of all time.

Cultural Assimilation Is A Bad Thing?

Not this guy! Stuck in a prison and about to be deported, Francisco Castaneda had to have his penis amputated due to a severe bout of cancer. In a last-ditch effort to show that he's all about being an American, he decided to sue. "Government officials imposed a death sentence on Mr. Castaneda, without benefit of judge or jury, by their failure to provide a simple and inexpensive diagnostic procedure to rule out a life-threatening disease," said his attorney, Conal Doyle. The decision to sue was brought to Fransisco, who was rather surprised that you can do that here in the United States. "Really? I can sue for this? Wow! You know, I spilled some coffee on my lap a while back and it burned me really bad, can I sue for that too? I can! Awesome!"
