Oh, my Lords of Kobol, was last week’s episode unpleasant, or what? I mean, fake babies that screamed all the time–what the deuce, Project Runway? What did we ever do to deserve such heinous treatment? Seriously, don’t ever do that to us again. Also, how many fashion “lines” does Heidi have?
Whelp, there’s really no point in Bruce Willis’ John McClane actually saying much in the first teaser trailer for the fifth offering in the Die Hard franchise. Nope. Really? You don’t know what John McClane says and how he says it? Who are you? Some kid born in 1992? If you don’t know, it’s usually some grouchy, grizzled version of “I’ll kick your ass, because ass kicking is what I do, kid.” Imagine Bruce Willis said that. See? This is what we’re saying.

…and we’d like to tell them that they’re insane. Ok. Seriously, sure, fine, we get it. Let’s do exercise! It’s good for the body and the soul. It’s all about mind over matter, friends. “You can do it!” says Chuck Norris probably. Ok. We really hate Chuck Norris.

This week, my Super Squats Challenge to myself was to conquer the jewel of Phoenix, Camelback Mountain. There are two hiking trails – one for the tourists called Cholla, and one for the triumphant called Echo Canyon. I figured that if I were going to do it, be triumphant about it. In truth, the Cholla hike requires more climbing near the summit that my fear of heights prevents me from even considering. Continue reading
The pundits and news sites, even MSNBC’s Chris Matthews and the Huffington Post, all seem to agree that Mitt Romney won the debate last night. If you’re a Liberal, the display was a bit hard to bear. But was the debate won on substance or style? Continue reading
Due to circumstances completely beyond my control, this column is a tad late this week. My wife really hammered me on picks. Anyway Week 4, yay! The real referees are back. Wait, is the honeymoon over already? Did the NFL sneak a replacement crew into the Green Bay game? Why are the Cardinals 4-0?
The Great Brain Robbery Pt. II – It was a pleasant experience to see the regular officials back on the job. For the most part games ran more smoothly. Continue reading

With only five weeks until the election, the GOP’s point of no return zipped past in the rearview weeks ago. About the time Mitt Romney spent a muggy night in Tampa following up the weirdest public display by a senior citizen since Reagan’s second term with a bore-fest, the tide started turning against America’s favorite Mormon-Plutocratic-Android.
Tonight, that could all change. Mitt Romney could give the performance of a life time, the President could have a ‘Kill Whitey’ moment, and Ann Romney could spend Thursday morning planning for ways to keep ‘you people’ away from the Executive Mansion. Continue reading
In his mountain fastness of Castle Romney, high in the windswept Utah Alps, Willard Mittonicum Jackasticus Lannister Romney, Lord of the Robo-men and Republican Presidential nominee, prepared for the first Presidential debate. His campaign is in something of a shambles, and his advisors were hoping Romney could turn it around with a non-crappy performance at the debate. Continue reading
