2009-09-23 08:39:00 Kevin Jonas, who previously picked his best men, has sparked speculation that a pre-nuptial agreement and bachelor party are being planned. The 21-year-old singer is looking into a pre-nup with fiance Danielle Deleasa, just in case things don?t work out. It is because he has millions to protect, so he?s asked Danielle to sign a prenup, ...
China's 'Green Dam' Censorship Software Looks Pretty Damn Lame
2009-06-10 06:50:00 The Wall Street Journal wrote a piece earlier this week entitled 'China Squeezes PC Makers' where they outlined the Chinese governments' recent requirement that PC makers to ship their machines with internet filtering software. The Green Dam software is intended to filter out explicit language and pornographic images, but early user reports indicate that this software might not be as slick as many might have expected.

The Lame Excuses of Democrats Who Voted for AIG Bonuses
2009-03-21 01:30:00 No wonder Democrats are tripping over themselves to denounce the bonuses paid to AIG executives. They’rre trying to try to deflect attention from their votes to guarantee such bonuses (when they voted for the “stimulus” which included a provision doing just that). Michael Barone sees their grandstanding as a “moment of panic for House Democrats” and ...

I "Dig" this bed. I know, lame, but I like my puns.
2008-12-12 15:52:00 We have a boring bed. No offense to Sweetie, who picked it out, but it's JUST a bed. It's got the headboard and footboard and mattresses and all, but that's it. It doesn't add anything to the room or anything like that.The kind of bed, the way it looks, doesn't make me sleep any better -- but it makes me feel better about my house. That's why, after all, we don't just pile mattresses on the floor. The bed we've got now is just a step above that.Which is kind of a shame, when you think of all the different beds that are out there. Take Time4Sleep, which sells beds online. They have, I bet, over a hundred different styles of beds. No, I haven't counted them. But I've been looking at them, and they've got all kinds of different beds that not only allow you to sleep on them, but they serve as great-looking furniture that really dresses up the room and looks nice.Like the "Divan Bed" they have, a bed that looks all modern and stylish, like it should be in the house of ...
The Final "World AIDS Day" For Lame-Duck Dubya
2008-12-01 18:23:00 This VOA News story tells us that..More than a thousand people living with HIV and their allies (were) expected to gather near the White House (on November 20th) in a preemptive public demonstration for AIDS advocacy. They are staging a pretend inauguration ceremony to urge President-Elect Barack Obama to improve the way the United States fights AIDS domestically and globally.The rally comes one day after former Senate Majority Leader Tom Daschle accepted Mr. Obama?s offer to become Secretary of Health and Human Services (HHS) and implement a campaign pledge to deliver comprehensive universal health care to Americans. Associate director Michael Swigert of the group Africa Action is coordinating today?s simulated inaugural ceremony near the White House, which takes place two months before the actual swearing-in on January 20. He says that President Obama?s first 100 days in office will be crucial in setting priorities for fighting HIV/AIDS.I would be remiss if I didn?t note here that...

A Closer Look At... The Best Actor Who's So Lame He's Cool.
2008-08-12 16:44:00 The Best of Everything has a tremendous amount of impact in the world. Not only did the re-examination of Paris Hilton's celebrity prompt Paris to go to great lengths to retain her status as The Best Gossiple, but a mere mention of Tom Cavanagh now has him starring in his own midseason show coming up this year.Tom Cavanagh, you'll recall, was picked back in April (Lame/Cool Month) as "The Best Actor Who's So Lame He's Cool." At that point, Tom (who I like to think of as "Ed") wasn't doing much besides being a part-timer on some show called "Eli Stone," which maybe violates the rule about having only Morgan Freeman play God; I'm not sure because I haven't watched it.But since being named The Best Actor Who's So Lame He's Cool, Tom Cavanagh has picked up the lead role in a series called "Truth In Advertising." TBOE congratulates Tom, and we'll await our commission -- 10% seems fair. Other actors/celebrities/socialites-- -take note: You need TBOE!Is Jim Gaffigan the next celeb...
Lame-ass lyrics
2008-06-03 21:32:00 I was doing the washing up last night, listening to the shabby local radio station - "Radio Aire best of the 80s,90s and now!" - In defence, the missus was helping, it seemed a fair deal. Anyway, I hear this inspid plodding rock song which I hadn't heard before. I immediately recognise the faux-growl as Nickelback. Normally this wouldn't wind me up too much - Nickelback happens. What really wound me up were the song's lyrics. A sample of my favourite rhyming couplets: read more
Bush At His Shrink: The Lame-Duck Session
2008-06-03 16:25:00 by Bernard Weiner "I'm with my closest colleagues at the top of Mt. Everest. Below us on the snow, or maybe it's white sand, are thousands of bloody bodies. Suddenly, I see a line of approaching figures, armed with pitchforks and clubs, coming up the mountain. At first, I'm happy because they're carrying an American flag, but then I realize they're coming after me, led by a Toy Soldier wearing black. I turn around to figure out a counter-attack strategy with my key aides, but I'm all alone. I hear myself shout: 'A horse! A horse! My kingdom for a horse!' And then I wake up, sitting bolt-upright in bed, trembling and covered in sweat." "And that's the dream that brought you back here, Mr. President?" "Well, that one and at my wife's and physician's insistence. They seem to feel I'm in bad shape and could use your help." "And you? What do you feel?" "Those times we talked before?** You made me really angry. You forced me to face...

Scott McClellan WAYLAYS Lame-Duck President “Surge” W. Bush In
2008-05-28 13:05:00 Former White House Press Secretary Scott McClellan Admits To Aiding And Abetting President Bush In Deceiving The American People Into “Rubber-Stamping” Invasion Of Iraq… We’re all going to be “o-pining” on Scotty McClellan’s new book over the next few weeks instead of incarcerating him and his former boss on charges of intentionally conspiring to defraud the American Public into agreeing to allow our military forces to INVADE a sovereign nation based upon what “Scotty-boy” himself NOW admits was nothing more than Bush Administration “propaganda”. The man and his former boss, at the VERY least, should be under scrutinous federal investigation and most probably, wearing black-and-white jumpsuits in a federal penetentiary while awaiting trial, should these allegations prove to be TRUE. For example — let’s say a buddy of mine robbed a bank and I knew about it all along. The media, knowing I’m a close ...
Anderson comes up lame
2008-05-24 05:28:00 Marlon Anderson attempted to beat out a ground ball and came up lame. Anderson left the game immediately and was replaced by Fernando Tatis. Initial reports were that Anderson has a strained hamstring, my guess is that he's heading to the disabled list. I felt the team needed to obtain an outfielder when Alou went down and now I think it's imperative. I was surprised when the Mets didn't recall Val Pascucci when Alou went down but now it's almost certain that he's coming up. The big right hander is hitting .293 with a .671 Slg. pct, but he's a defensive liability which leaves the team with one defensive replacement in Endy Chavez who is only batting .167 and hasn't looked the same since he injured his hammy last year. The Mets now have Beltran, Church, Chavez, Tatis, Easley and Pascucci (probably) for the outfield which tells me they need to make a move. Metsblog reported that Jose Valentin made a rehab start and hopefully he'll be replacing Casanova soon, the team doesn't ...

The Best Emotion That's So Lame It's Cool.
2008-04-26 18:07:00 Okay, I started this early, and I'm ending it early. I'm not ending it because I can't keep it up, but I'm bored with it. By now, you get the point: Things can be so lame they're cool, because The Coolness Continuum dictates that.And those "things" can include things that aren't things at all, like "emotions." Emotions are not things. They're... something that's not a thing. And the lamest of all emotions is "love."Love is, as an emotion, hopelessly lame. There are cool emotions, emotions that are just perfect the way they are. Like "happiness." Nothing wrong with "happiness." Happiness is awesome. Happiness makes you laugh along with the thing Joel McHale says. Happiness lets you walk with a bounce in your step. Happiness helps you get out of bed in the morning.Another cool emotion? Righteous indignation. This one is underused, but is very cool. It's not just being indignant, but righteously so -- so smack, there, in the description, you've got permission to feel indignan...

Lame way to tackle Fuel Prices
2008-04-22 22:47:00 The Australian Competition and Consumer Commission (ACCC) announced yesterday that motorists would get at least 15 hours notice to buy petrol before prices increased under a government fuel monitoring scheme.Some points of note from the announcement were:- The ACCC will operate the scheme, which is expected to start by the end of the year and will give consumers information about the next day's petrol prices via text messages, email or website.- Consumers will know when the price is going to increase or decrease and they can therefore defer their buying until they (fuel prices) get to their lowest points."- Every petrol station that was part of the scheme would be required to lodge with the ACCC their proposed fuel price for the following day. The ACCC would then publish those prices within one hour of the information being lodged. The price would apply from 6am the following day for 24 hours.- "More importantly through SMS services, through email and through our website, you will ...
The Best Musical Instrument That's So Lame It's Cool
2008-04-20 02:44:00 Among my many hidden talents are the ability to play several musical instruments. Or to almost play several musical instruments. That is, I play a couple of instruments, and I almost-play a couple of instruments.The instruments I can play are the guitar, and the piano. I'm way better at the piano, including knowing by memory a couple of very impressive songs that I can just sit down and tear into. You have to be able to do that because if you play an instrument and people find out they will always ask you to play something, and if you say "Oh, well, I need my sheet music to play that" then they think you're just a big liar, because real musicians can just sit down and play something.Like in Forgetting Sarah Marshall, which Sweetie and I saw on a date last night, when [SPOILER ALERT INVOLVING A DATE AND A FUNNY SONG] the guy who is trying to forget Sarah Marshall is at a bar and his date asks him to play a song from his Dracula musical, he gets up there and just plays it. That's w...
The Best Comic Strip That's So Lame It's Cool.
2008-04-18 17:39:00 I'm kind of cheating again here, because I've already picked one Comic Strip in a Best Category. But that was over two years ago, and also was only a one-panel comic, and also was long before I started Lame/Cool month, and it was long before I discovered "Buttersafe."There are, as I've found out, a zillion webcomics out there. The Internet, so kind to aspiring writers like me, is also kind to aspiring cartoonists and has thrown open the door to those whose sense of humor is, simply put, awesome, but whose sense of humor, at the same time, is the kind of thing people would not expect to see in their morning papers. There is, I estimate, zero chance that "Buttersafe" will ever appear in a newspaper, and not just because its strips are unusually formatted and long, but also because its strips feature Skeleton Harvesters:I stumbled onto Buttersafe, and immediately was drawn to it the way I'm drawn to other lame things -- and I immediately noted it as lame, because it's drawn weird ...
The Best Correction To The Correction Of A Lame Interpretation of A Song.
2008-04-18 17:20:00 The controversy goes on! All the way back on Wednesday, I gave you "Come Sail Away" as The Best Plot Twist In A Song Which Makes A Lame Song Cool." I noted in that article that the angels/aliens maybe didn't take the guy with them because the singer says they climbed aboard their starships, not we climbed aboard.Then, I corrected myself after having listened to the song again, and decided that in fact the singer explained that, no, he'd gone with the aliens, so everything was okay.But then, I remembered that I'm never wrong, so I did some research -- research being Googling "Come Sail Away" lyrics. And this is what I found: nearly every website that I checked agreed with my original interpretation:LyricsFreak.com- says it's:I thought that they were angels, but to my surpriseThey climbed aboard their starship and headed for the skiesSinging come sail away, come sail awaySo does Seeklyrics.com and LyricsDepot.But, again: Sing365.com has it as "We," as does StLyrics, although they q...
RECAPPING The Best Of Lame/Cool
2008-04-18 16:53:00 More than halfway through the month. They said it couldn't be done. Didn't they? Or did they? Well, it can be done. The Best of Everything has and will spend the entire month of April celebrating The Best of Things That Are So Lame They're Cool.Things like:Nonfiction books about lame/cool topics., Or things like music that was brought back by the two greatest forces for social change in the world, Or things like movies your kids make you watch but which turn out to be pretty good because of the songs in themAnd including things like TV shows you wouldn't guess are so cool, guys who should be on TV more, superheroes who can't be gotten rid of, food that defies Newton's laws, this guy, places you can take the whole family and they'll actually have fun, and my ideal pet. Oh, and this other guy, and a song you can't live without hearing.
The Best Correction of A Lame Interpretation of A Song
2008-04-17 15:19:00 I have a correction to make. Yesterday, in discussing The Best Plot Twist In A Song Which Makes A Lame Song Cool, I said this:But wait... don't get too comfy, because these, in fact, are not angels, they are aliens, with a starship that heads towards the skies! And possibly still takes the guy with him! (I say possibly because if you look at the lyrics closely, you'll see that the singer says they climbed aboard their starships and headed for the skies, not we or I and they or something. So it's possible that the alien angels came, showed the guy how great life could be, and then flew away, leaving him more morose than ever. But I don't like to think about that option.)Then I went home and was feeding the Babies! dinner and listening to music -- something we usually do when Sweetie is gone at night; dinner consisted mostly of cookies -- and listened more closely and found that in fact, the singer says: "we climbed aboard their starship..."So that's a relief. It wasn't just the...
The Best of Lame/Cool: The Best Plot Twist In A Song Which Makes A Lame So
2008-04-16 16:07:00 Since April is continuing, lame/cool month continues.We all love a good plot twist, don't we? We all love it when a story suddenly takes a dramatic turn in an unexpected direction that makes us very glad that we only got a medium soda so that we were not in the bathroom when it happened, whatever "it" is -- it might be [MAN THERE ARE A LOT OF SPOILERS IN THIS PARAGRAPH, SO JUMP AHEAD IF YOU LIKE ENTERTAINMENT AND THINGS] Morgan Freeman being a kidnapping cop, or Darth actually being Luke's dad, or Mr. Furley thinking that Jack's hot date is actually a sailor who dresses up like a girl.Okay, that last one was not a plot twist. But it's still among the greatest stories ever told in the history of human civilization.Now check out this plot twist:A guy is sitting around, musing about how his life has taken some turns for, if not the worse, at least the mediocre. He's missed out on the pot of gold, even though he's the Captain on board. So he's just trying, best as he can, to caaa...
The Best of Lame/Cool: The Best Pet Which Is So Lame It's Cool.
2008-04-15 23:14:00 This gets harder and harder every day, because while lots of things are The Best and lots of things are Lame and lots of things are Cool, there are not a lot of things that are so Lame they're Cool and are also The Best of those things. So how about a little credit here?There is a secret purpose to this nomination: I am secretly researching this pet because I think it would be a good pet for the Babies! but Sweetie is opposed to getting them a pet -- any pet-- because we have three cats and because the Babies! are only 19 months old. So I am preparing a case to convince Sweetie that it is a good idea to get this pet for the Babies! at some point in the near future, and this nomination is a test run.I don't have to worry about Sweetie finding out that's what I'm doing, because Sweetie doesn't care much for The Best of Everything. Sweetie only rarely reads what I write, in the first place, since she is treated to the raw version of it at home. She reads some of it; she read my st...

The Best of Lame/Cool: The Best Actor Who's So Lame He's Cool.
2008-04-14 17:14:00 Lame/cool month rolls on! A show of hands from everyone who secretly believes that the actors we see are actually a lot more like their characters than they would have us believe, so much like their characters, in fact, that they are indistinguishable from their characters?Also, a show of hands from people who think I'm being sexist by saying "actor" in that paragraph? Zing-- got you. It's not sexist at all because when I say "actor" I mean "men and women who act." I can't stand those people who change "waiter" and "waitress" to "waitron" as though in between bringing appetizers, the waiter is slinging glowing frisbees at the Master Control Program.(I recently rented Tron on DVD from my local library. Expect lots of Tron references over the next couple of days, until the high wears off.)Explaining by people don't need to invent words to describe things in nonsexist ways is just one of the many services I provide you, gratis. So, again: you don't need to have "waitrons." A "wait...
The Best of Lame/Cool: The Best Comedian Who's So Lame He's Cool.
2008-04-13 20:34:00 April is Lame/Cool month-- the month I'm taking to explain (drive into the ground) the concept of things that are so lame they're cool. Let's all take a look at Jim Gaffigan over there on the left, before we consider how I'm kind of cheating here.What do you think? Granted, comedians are not exactly the most photogenic bunch of people. They probably developed comic abilities as a protective mechanism against people picking on them or turning them down for dates or otherwise rejecting or criticizing them. (I got rejected and picked on plenty, but never developed the comic abilities that some great comedians did. I did develop a pretty healthy set of neuroses, though, and those neuroses serve as their own form of protection.)(I hope.)(Those neuroses also serve to make me realize just how crazy I am, such as when I'll decide to have a bite-sized cookie, just one, at 9:00 p.m., and just after I swallow it, my collar feels tight, and my neck feels fatter, and I can almost feel my ch...
