How to Save the Human Race

World conditions got you down? What? Not very optimistic, are you? You're not alone: Stephen Hawking agrees we might very well destroy each other. Does that mean the end of the human race?

Not if Mr. Hawking has anything to do about it.

New York Tackles Greenhouse Gases

Temperatures in New York rose 1.13 degrees last century. The prediction for the next 100 years? Can the summer heat make the pee-infused train stations any more rank?

Apparently, yes. Lots more.

Petition to Make TRUTHINESS Word of the Year

Every year, dictionary supergiant Merriam-Webster calls on you to cast your ballot and vote for the Word of the Year.

And let's face it: past winners sucked.

"Integrity"? "Blog"? Lame!

And so now I begin my online campaign to make Stephen Colbert's "Truthiness" 2006's Word of the Year. Don't let the Word of the Year be taken by some pedestrian noun or unimaginative adjective.

Be on the side of TRUTHINESS!

Let's make it happen, people! It all ends December 4! Click here to vote!

SPREAD THE WORD!

Pamela Anderson Files for Divorce!

Alas, another Hollywood couple, this one with high hopes from everyone of their lasting bliss, has bit the dust. Pamela Anderson confirms: "Unfortunately impossible."

Who would have thought? Is there no one respecting the sanctity of a doomed wedding?

Why Did OJ Do It?

In a photo from the interview, OJ describes how he would, if, you know, hypothetically speaking, he would choke the last breath of life out of the two people he absolutely unequivocally did not murder.

But I guess we'll never know, now that the book and interview have been pulled. The question remains, Why? Why the shamefully tasteless and exploitative publicity stunt?

Is Michael Richards Racist?

He doesn't seem to think so. During his broadcast apology, he defended himself by saying: "I'm not a racist. That's what's so insane about this."

Of course not. Neither is Mel Gibson.

Seriously--what do you think?

Does the US Need Help in the Mideast?

Oh my, but the Mideast never sleeps:
All this attention is sure to make North Korea jealous. Expect them to launch a parakeet into space in a styrofoam rocket, which will explode shortly after takeoff.

OJ Confesses!

Not content to just go away and wither in a filthy rich golf player's paradise over 10 years after the last "Trial of the Century," OJ Simpson brick-slaps society with a one-two punch: an interview and a book that his publisher calls "his confession."

The Marines Reject Jesus!

You can't have Christmas without Christ! Then it'll be just ...mas! And that doesn't have a ring to it, now, does it? Besides, what better way to while away the winter than cuddling with the Lord?

Elton John Wants to Ban Religion

Why? Ruthless persecution of heretics who dared defy the church? Serving colonial interests in the guise of conversion? Killing infidels to secure a place in Paradise? Fomenting nationalism?

Nah. Religion hates gays, so make it unlawful.

Somehow the irony of intolerance is lost on Sir Elton. Just like the irony of his hair.

Post-Election Elation: Dems Control Both House and Senate

Only because I do this news thing for a living do I know such obtuse historical facts as:
With all of these world-shaking events, do the tea leaves of US politics really spell change? Or just another person to hate?

Donald Rumsfeld Resigns!

Donald CutAndRunsfeld, perhaps taking heed of virtually every red-blooded American soldier he leads, turns in his badge as US Defense Secretary, according to an annoucement from George Bush this morning.

Never Saw This Coming

Britney Spears and Kevin "F is for Failure" Federline are no more. Brit ended the rocky union, filing for divorce, citing "irreconcilable differences."

Perhaps she didn't want her boys to grow up like their poppa (computer-generated projected image, left). Understandable. At least now they have the bright future of becoming saccharine white trash ho-bags. Yay!

It's Election Time!

With the dawn of midterm elections just a few hours away, tensions are running high, as are hopes of a new...something. Anything. But be warned: politics are always a gamble. Despite what you think you may know about a candidate, there's always the chance that you will share the blame for putting a sick pedarast in power and one step closer to his dream of a vile boy-harem in the West Wing. Not that that could ever happen.

Why Haven't You Downloaded This Yet?

The videophone has long been a mainstay in science fiction: Blade Runner, the Jetsons, etc. Finally the videophone became a reality, but only if you had 18 billion dollars or were a superagent like 007 or Ethan Hunt.

Well, let me tell you, the videophone has arrived, it's come a long way, and if you're reading this, you can probably use it. For free. That's right--free.

How do I know? Because the company I work for, SightSpeed, makes pretty much the best and easiest video calling software ever. And it's free. Did I mention it's free?

So why haven't you downloaded it yet?
