Angelina Jolie?s Assistant Tells All About Her Bizarre Obsessions

Learning from the bizarre case of Sai Baba
2011-08-30 00:11:00 Today I am promoting an excellent blog with the views of an independent source -(i.e. someone never a devotee) called Julian Walker. My acknowledgement to him, his constructive and sensible writing is worthy of wider dissemination. The following is a very foreshortened version of the ten points which the author makes at www.elephantjournal.com entitle-d 10 Things We ...
Poor calls by the IRL IZOD IndyCar Series officials in a bizarre race overs
2011-08-15 02:06:00 This article is part of a cross-promotion between both my blogs RaceDriven.com and ThinkingBrian.com. Over on ThinkingBrian.com, I discussed Dario Franchitti-Sato incident and the championship outlock. Over the past two seasons, one of the biggest problems that IRL IndyCar Series drivers and owner, not to mention some fans including me on some cases, have been poor officiating (namely poor calls by the officials in charge) from the tower on race day. I mean one poor call that struck a chord with not only a driver, but the fans were last year?s black flag call on Helio Castroneves at Edmonton, Canada where the headline read ?IRL IndyCar Series officials screws Helio Castroneves out of win and hands it to Scott Dixon.? However in my opinion Castroneves?s black flag doesn?t even compare to watching today?s IndyCar Series race from New Hampshire Motor Speedway because that was a blocking call with a line on the restart, as today?s issue was with the officials in the tower putting dri...
If the White Sox win a bizarre game from hell and no one watches, do CQ&apo
2011-05-25 09:55:00 In an 162 game season, individual games get minimized as a matter of necessity. There's always a game tomorrow, so sometimes you've just got to decide to give 5 innings to Tony Pena so everyone can go the hell home. Other times, without warning, single games morph into drawn-out wars of attrition, with the two squads sloshing through the proceedings like local schlubs waging a never-ending drinking contest without realizing they both have work in the morning. Tuesday night's 8-6 win over Texas most resembled scenario #2
Meet Andrew Zimmern of Travel Channel's "Bizarre Foods!"
2011-04-20 23:29:00 From dung beetles and rotten fish to fertilized duck eggs and brain tacos, we've watched Andrew Zimmern freak us out eating unthinkable things we didn't even know existed on Travel Channel's "Bizarre Foods!" But let me tell you from a personal relationship, he is far more than just able to shock & excite. He's worldly, intelligent, entertaining, magnetic, funny and well versed in all things culinary & culture- and I really think you should meet him while he is in town next week! So you know, I also am an Andrew fan in part because he is a huge fan of Chicago, calling us "America's Greatest Food City" when I interviewed him for the olympics, and recently came to...
A Love Bizarre: Baseball and Women
2011-02-24 00:42:00 I always look forward to the month of February for two reasons: 1) Valentine's Day is my favorite holiday. 2) Spring Training begins! They always coincide...my love of baseball and romance. In fact, my longest romance has been with baseball, in particular, with the Chicago Cubs. I don't remember a day in my life when I didn't love the Cubs, and I owe that to my die-hard Cubs fan grandmother, who was born in 1906, and lived a year past the 1989 Division Championships. With love, however, heartbreak is inevitable, and especially for the Cubs' faithful. For me, though, there has been one heartbreak, even bigger than October in Wrigleyville, that accompanies Spring Training every year: The realization that MLB is...

A Wonderful Season, A Bizarre Ending
2011-01-24 04:50:00 If someone told you in August that Jay Cutler, Todd Collins and Caleb Hanie would each take snaps in the NFC Championship Game against the Green Bay Packers...what would you have said? I don't know what my exact words would have been but they would have rhymed with "buck cough". We'll have weeks to discuss the severity of Jay Cutler's knee injury. Weeks to analyze Mike Martz calling an end around to Earl Bennett on a game-deciding third down. Weeks, nay months, to criticize Lovie and Mike for having Hanie behind Collins on the postseason depth chart. None of it matters now. The Bears are out of the 2010 season. That's the truth.I was proud today of the way the defense...

WGN-TV: Michael Jackson tribute brings out the bizarre in Gary, IN
2010-06-25 16:09:00 PLEASE Stop We Have Got Enough!The King of Pop passed away one year ago today.WGN-TV's Dean Richards will be LIVE in Gary, Indiana - Jackson's home city - throughout the day. This morning he was out front of Jackson's childhood home, where a new monument was waiting to be unveiled. It sat draped in a black garbage bag, resembling the monolith from "2001."It was 8:45 a.m., but that didn't stop the MJ faithful from coming out and getting a front row seat. There were people with bad tattoos, a man with way too much energy, and even Ronnie Woo Woo Wickers, who was making his first media appearance of the day before the Crosstown Classic.Here are some images from the...
A Bizarre, Yet Telling Michael Jackson Commerical
2010-06-25 09:13:00 Michael Jackson was not only the king of pop, but he was also the master of marketing his own brand. Somewhere around 1992 just after releasing Dangerous, Michael Jackson shot yet another commercial. This commercial, which featured an older Michael Jackson meeting his younger self, was originally to sell Pepsi. This directors-cut like version of the ad doesn't feature any Pepsi product. This commercial does however provide a telling sign of Michael's emotional state. In the ad itself, Michael is playing a sobering less youthful version of his classic with the Jackson 5, "I'll Be There". Midway through playing it, the young Michael makes an appearance. When he looks back, a series of photos and videos of Michael in his...
An Update About The Bizarre Fatal Crash In Steger
2010-05-16 06:10:00 The news accounts of the events leading up to the death of that child were so off the wall that it begged for hard questions to be asked.

Repost: Bizarre clothing options in the "tweener" weather season
2010-05-13 15:00:00 Note: Today's Tribune carried a weather story about "May's iffy weather makes it the month of maybe." Reporter Gerry Smith referenced this CTA Tattler post from last May. I thought I would repost it since it's certainly germaine in this weather. The last few weeks constitute what I call the "tweener" season for weather. It's hard to figure out what to wear to work when it's cool in the morning and it's supposed to get warmer. But many of us folks go too far and it's just a little strange. There's the guy in short sleeves when it's barely 50 degrees. And you wonder, what was he thinking? And of course it's mostly guys, but I've seen a few women...

Bizarre Headlines from Tiger Woods to John Daly Cheapen Masters Ambience
2010-04-06 21:44:00 Each year during Masters week, the game of golf has been reflected upon in its purest form. Golfers of days gone by were revered, statistics and quotes of incredible shots were remembered and everyone was deciding on the "right" way to make a pimento cheese sandwich. Do a Google search this week for "Masters" and a more bizarre and less "Southern" feeling emerges. John Daly has set up his RV directly across the street from the Augusta National parking lot conducting his own business by selling and signing memorabilia to fans. Daly was not invited to Augusta National as a guest but decided to show up anyway, hoping to make more money in sales than from an appearance fee. There is more Tiger Woods chat than you can shake a stick at since he is the big draw this week and the reason for an 82-person security detail. Partnering with Woods will be K.J. Choi and Matt Kuchar. The big scoop, however, is that former(?) mistress Joslyn James will be headlining her own act in nearby Atlanta....

When It Rains, It Pours Bizarre
2009-12-08 01:42:00 I blame the rain. My world has never been normal, but it's now taken a full-fledged turn for the bizarre. Fiona the Cunt My mortal enemy is now sexting me about how she wants to do a threesome with me and Blair. She hates Blair. And Blair hates her. Worse, I'm supposed to hate Fiona the Cunt and she's supposed to hate me. Granted, I tricked her into believing that I was not responsible for the death of her sister, Conklin's dead slutty wife. And even though I did not kill her, she accidentally died during our failed attempt to murder her. Am I responsible? It's a very grey area in my book. But regardless, even if she knew the facts, somehow I don't think she'd see it my way. Now, don't get me wrong. There would be nothing more freaky and wonderful than sex with two psychotics like Blair and Fiona the Cunt. But as bizarre as things are, that will never happen. Blair would never share me with anyone, least of all her own enemy. I wouldn't even attempt to persuade her.&...

Most Bizarre Use of a Shop Award
2009-07-24 18:02:00 There's no way I don't get nominated this year. As prologue, let's step into the WayBack Machine and bump the dial back to early June, when I casually mentioned to Doc Karen that I had seen several feral cats on my evening dog walks. In addition to being an MD, Karen is also a NYS licensed wildlife rescuer so I should have known that I was shaking a hornets' nest. A week later, over my fourth or fifth margarita, I found that I had agreed to allow my shop to be used as a holding facility for the Great Owls Head Cat Roundup. Karen hooked me with the Mayor's Alliance and the ASPCA for a trap-and-release campaign (called a TNR -- I learned some new lingo hanging with these people). The TNR would encompass at least two known colonies and four caretakers (again, lingo) over a geographic area of about five blocks. I was surprised to learn that feral cats aren't usually loners but are part of a loose colony of ferals. A cat that isn't part of a colony is called a rogue. Do I...
