I was watching clips from the Today show today and they had that kid who got a book for Christmas. Needless to say he was not thrilled and proceeded to call it poo. Fair enough. I know I’ve gotten my share of poo gifts through the years. The clip is, apparently, a big hit on [...]

Irate that his teenage daughter was dating an older man and frustrated that the police refused to intervene, a German dad went to the 57-year-old’s home and castrated him with a bread knife. Helmut Seifert recently pled guilty to attacking Phillip Genscher; with the help of two of his co-workers he went to Genscher’s home [...]

What is it with Asia’s fascination with all things involving American pop culture?  The Europeans don’t really care about us they love their soccer.  Latin America kind of cares about us but they’ve got telenovelas and soccer.  A wedding at McDonald’s isn’t really something they’re cheering about.

So the 33 Chilean miners trapped more than 2,000 feet underground for 69 days are now free.  But who really freed them?  Different churches are lining up trying to claim their unique divine intervention in the rescue, forgetting about the impressive technological achievement and cooperation of the Chilean engineers and government officials. So these opportunistic [...]

Conceptually, I like both Mike Myers and Pepé Le Pew. But two things disturbed me about this pairing.
