How to Save the World?


I haven't posted in some time and it's not because I don't have anything to say. It's just that - strangely - just after I posted about Farrah's death, and heard about Michael Jackson's, I was taken hostage and put into a think tank with a varied group of thinkers. Our mission: save the world.


And we came up with nothing. So I'm sorry if that brings you down. But we're still thinking. And now that I've been freed I can post again, and take your suggestions back to my group, should you have any.


I suggested in an effort to rid ourselves of the unemployment problem facing America that we should just abolish work altogether. As you can imagine, I was mocked mercilessly for that idea, most notably by the farmer and the ice skater. I was like give me a break, I'm just brainstorming. Whatever.


What about you? How would you save the world?

RIP Farrah


I goof around a lot on this blog and say a lot of stupid things, but now let's just take a few moments of silence for Farrah Fawcett who died after a 2 1/2-year battle with cancer. I know I speak for Generation Xish boys everywhere when I say there was no woman whose poster looked better on our bedroom wall. Remember that shot where she's wearing the orange bathing suit?


But really, Farrah, was just an all-around lovely person. And if you saw any of her documentary on her struggle with cancer it was clear how much of a survivor she was, how much she loved her family, and we even got a peek into her artistic talents.


I wish her family and friends the best during their grieving process.


Good Night, Angel.

O-H

Only one force could truly spur revolution in Iran.

That’s right, his shirt does say, "Ohio State."



You know this guy is calling on the power of Woody Hayes to bring freedom to Iran. And if any power out there posssess both the knowledge of military history and the sonuvabitchin hard-headed gumption to do so, you damn well know it’s W. Woodrow Hayes.
