Yes, the Redneck is going extinct, so they need a survival challenge. No. Jennifer Love Hewitt’s hands will be even busier on Lifetime; Ray Liotta to continue disappointing us; Anne Heche to produce miracles and maybe find Raptor Jesus; The Arnold will be back; Prometheus will be rated fittingly; and we hate Smash’s Ellis. What else needs to be said? Continue reading
Momof3 posted a link to “a right wing blog that [she’s] not terribly ashamed of.”
I’m always game for opposing viewpoints, but within the first minute of perusing the article titles, I knew that this was a comedy gold mine. Not because it was particularly funny or interesting, but rather that it was the same conservative tripe wrapped in a veneer of disrespectability, which is admittedly something new.
So, because I can’t let stupidity like this go unridiculed, I picked a few articles from the homepage and had at them, FJM-style. Continue reading

Don’t blink. We’re at the midpoint, and things are happening fast. So, yes, don’t blink. If you do, you’re bound to miss some of the careful nuance playing out between all of our beloved characters, and if you’re basing your assessment of Game of Thrones, the television series, on Game of Thrones the books?

Everyone try and keep up, because the cow pie just got real. Continue reading

It was always there in the background, caressing the air around us as my mother rolled grapeleaves, or had sweet mint tea with company, or chatted on the phone with my aunts as I played on the carpet.

It’s holidays and the smell of roast lamb or turkey- my mom and my aunt Sona dancing dabke in the kitchen together as they cooked. It’s their fond memories of a childhood in Jerusalem and vacations visiting cousins in Boorj Hammoud (the Armenian quarter of Beirut). And this is something they share with so many people of the Middle East, Christian, Sunni, Shi’ite, Druze… Everyone loves Fairuz. Continue reading

Yes, you read that correctly. Saturday night Floyd “Money” Mayweather made his grand entrance at the MGM Grand in Las Vegas, ahead of his title fight with Miguel Cotto. It turned out to be a great matchup but one of the highlights of the night was when Mayweather came out dressed in a Michael Jackson-esque studded leather jacket and accompanied by 50 Cent, the hulking professional wrestler Triple H and teen pop songstress Justin Bieber.
