If Daley runs for Mayor of Chicago again, he needs to do this on WGN.
Watch all of it – it’s awesome.
New Soy Product on the Market!
I’ve always found it difficult to ‘name products’. I mean, what is going to capture the imagination of all potential consumers? Plus, you are probably trying to combat an already established market leader, so what do you do? Toss it to the co-anchor. They will ALWAYS come up with something.
Sprout Recall
An outbreak of salmonella in 10 states has prompted the recall of sprouts. You know why else sprouts should be recalled? Because they taste bad. Let me put it another way: Sprouts are dumb. They are a dumb food. It’s like eating dirt.
North Korea, You Don’t Know Who You’re Messing With
Secretary of State Hillary Clinton had some tough words for North Korea over the sinking of a South Korean navy ship. Immediately after, North Korea hired Bill Clinton as an advisor. Also… North Korea’s response to this was “Should South Korea take steps to retaliate, North Korea will “strongly react to them with such merciless punishment [...]
Obama’s Socialist Olympics Fail
Hey folks, Fred the Tuckpointer here with a quick check in from my sister Mis’ place in North Royalton. Since my shoulder separation, Sadie decided we should be separate too, at least until I “get my act together” - whatever that means. Its not too bad – Mis works third shift down at the clinic, [...]
Tea Party Slammer
Hey folks, Fred the Tuckpointer here with one you’ll never believe. Last time I blogged, I was telling you all about how my neighbor Don got a letter from the crummy IRS telling him he owed big time. I’d been seeing all these “tea parties” on TV where a bunch of people who hate President [...]
You have to wonder…what WAS he doing?
(thanks FailBlog.org – you never disappoint)
If I had over $4,602,100
I definitely would have bid on a chance to spend eternity on top of Marilyn Monroe.
Casey Kasem Retires
For all seven people still listening to Casey Kasem, I’m sorry for your loss. Other big news you should know about is that you can now buy music by “downloading” it from the “internet” using “i”-”Tunes.” Then you can put it on your “i”-”Pod…” Nevermind.
Video Friday: The Future of News
Here’s a video I did with some old guys at my work and Schadenfriend Scott Smith. You like?
This Air France story keeps getting more and more like a movie.
So, at first, I likened the Air France missing story to “Lost”. My bad, very insensitive, I’m sorry. But, c’mon, it STILL kinda matches. The plane “disappears from radar” – THEN – we “find” a plane, and parts of a plane… It’s just like “LOST” and I’m holding out that Jacob is real, and that [...]
Everyone in Dayton rest easy, they caught the swimsuit bandit.
There was some drama when I was home in Dayton, Ohio this week. It seems that coincident to my arrival – a bandit, dressed in a swimsuit with a bra stuffed with swimsuits was running around menacing people at an Ice Cream shop and Canoe Rental Shop near the Great Miami River. He’s been caught, [...]
Hip Hops News Mashup
I can’t decide if this is closer to funny or bizarre, but I can’t stop watching it.
Ok – Can anyone tell me…
What was Air Force 2 doing flying around the Statue of Liberty? I’ve been traveling, and all I’ve got are headlines and pictures of people running in the streets because Air Force 2, along with a couple F-16s, were flying around Ground Zero and the Statue of Liberty. It seems to me that no one [...]

National New Anchors
What’s up with national news anchors (CNN, CNBC, etc.) acting like they’re my best friend while delivering the news?? And I’m not talking about the opinion/infotainment shows like Larry King, Keith Oberman, Chris Matthews — I’m talking about the “news” portion of the “news” channels. Stop leaning over the desk and trying to reach out [...]
