George Michael dies

Rest in peace, good sir.

George Michael, the man doing a nationally syndicated sports highlight show before “Sportscenter” had even grown pubes, has died according to the Washington Post and DCRTV.com.  He had been battling cancer over the past two years.

Michael, a longtime Washington D.C. sports anchor, rose to fame nationally thanks to his syndicated program, “The George Michael Sports Machine”, an edgy (for the time) look at the week in sports.

I can’t tell you how many years I spent watching this program (every Sunday night, after the NFL had run its weekly course), and this is a very sad loss for me.  What makes it sadder is the man’s apparent integrity and honor. 

Geez, can you imagine Rich Eisen or Chris Berman doing that?  Me neither.

Linky-loos you can use.

You know what’s in poor taste? Posting on someone’s Facebook page that you’re in a wheelchair and wouldn’t it be great if you could see their titt-ays!  On account of you being a cripple and all.  Lamebook.

Oh cripes.  Kevin Federline is breeding.  Again.  He must be stopped.  Ladies, just say no.  I don’t think you’re ready for his jelly.   D Listed.

Halloween may be over, but it’s never too late to make fun of people who make stupid ass Star Wars costumes.  Holy Taco.

The Republicans took back Virginia.  Democrats?  Visit before it’s too late.  Charlottesville really is beautiful this time of year.  And be sure to check out the business school.  It’s byoot, but it looks like a plantation.  I’m just sayin’.  Wonkette.

Scientology is getting kicked in the nuts lately.  First, France, in all of its irrelevance (ahem, Mae), convicted Scientology of fraud.  Then Paul Haggis, Oscar-winning director of Crash [::overrated, clap, clap, clap clap clap::], left the church in a huff because of its anti-gay rights stance.  So now it’s up to Kate and Tom to pretend like Scientology’s shit don’t stink.  [P.S.  Just kidding France.  You know I love you.  Bonjour!  La baguette est dans la salle de bains.]  The Superficial.

Eat a dick, Jar Jar

The last three Star Wars movies would have been a lot more enjoyable if
Lucas had given R2D2 subtitles. Well, as long as Lucas didn’t write them
that is.

It’s amazing how much adding the word pants changes some of your favorite Star Wars quotes.
