This blog post has been percolating for a long time in my head. I finally snapped this morning when seeing a completely benign twitter message from someone. It said:
Ok, totally offended by the W article: » link to Money Honeys: Celebrities: Wmagazine.com Aren’t we beyond this?

George Carlin, known for his role as the conductor on Shining Time Station’s seasons 2-4 (one of Rube’s favorites), was also known for being a socially observant comedian. He shuffled off his mortal coil this past Sunday. How about we look back on the 7 Words You Can’t Say. Oh, and you [...]

Rainy Boston morning, no ideas right now for a post. While I was drinking my coffee, browsing Break dot com, I came across this video. I’ve always thought monkeys are the funniest animals, but when you combine a squirrel eating a cracker with Huey Lewis’ “If This Is It” struck me as pretty [...]

I’ll admit, I’ve been a little disappointed by the lack of Paul “Fitzy” Fitzgerald’s Wicked Pissah Webcasts over at Townie News as of late. BUT, this one is pure gold. No Sox, Pats, Celts, or Bruins news in this one. Nope, Fitzy sums up pretty much all of our collective opinions about [...]
