The St. Louis Cardinals manager Tony LaRussa and first baseman Albert Pujols are going to be honorees at Glen Beck’s “Restoring Honor” rally that will take place tomorrow. The highly publicized rally is expected to be politically charged and is being seen by some as a platform for the conservative Tea Party movement.
The rally is taking place on the 47th anniversary of Dr. Martin Luther King’s “I Have a Dream” speech and in the same location, the base of the Lincoln Memorial. The rally will not only feature Beck, but also former Republican vice presidential candidate Sarah Palin.
LaRussa says “I made it clear when we were approached: I said, ‘If it’s political, I wouldn’t even approach Albert with it.’ I don’t want to be there if it’s political.” LaRussa says he was told this would in now way be political and was told invitations were sent out across party lines. “I don’t know who’s going to be there, who’s going to accept it. But the gist of the day is not political. I think it’s a really good concept, actually.”
First of all, when has there ever been an event that involved Glenn Beck or Sarah Palin that wasn’t politically charged? These two will take every opportunity to preach their political ideas – and LaRussa should know this. He has the right to show up, but doing so is a dumb move. He needs to concentrate on winning baseball games and not stick his nose in anything political. He also shouldn’t be dragging Pujols to the rally. Pujols is not smart enough to say no. He just knows that they want to give him an award and he loves awards.
End the end, this will hurt the image of both LaRussa and Pujols. No matter what their political stance is, they shouldn’t be publicly displaying it. LaRussa came under fire a month ago for supporting Arizona for its strong stance against illegal immigrants. With his baseball team dying in the wimpy National League Central, maybe LaRussa should worry about learning how to manage a baseball team before he concerns himself with politics.
We’ve probably all looked at the front of a car and thought, “That kinda looks vaguely like a face.” But we probably never looked at it and thought, “This car needs some eyelashes.”
But someone did, and now they’re trying to earn a few Pet Rock-like bucks selling Carlashes. For only $24.95, you can stick these dumbass eyelashes around your headlights and drive around town like a clown. And for $19.95 more, you can add “crystal eyeliner” over the top of it for that extra DAZZLE!
Aren’t we in some sort of recession? Do people really have the disposable income to waste on shit like this?
When I look at my junk, tattooing is probably the last thing I think it needs. Grooming and an occasional bar of soap, yes. Tattoos? Maybe not.
The latest craze to sweep the Sex And The City crowd of overpaid, self-obsessed shrews is something called “vattooing.” As the name coyly suggests, it’s tattooing on a vagina. I really don’t mind if a woman vattoos her hoo-hah, just as long as the tattoo doesn’t read “Ray Stay Away.” Because, you, know, I sure do love the pussy.
How would you like to be the poor girl that is forced to spray paint stupid-looking shit on the slits of these miserable whores? And please wear some reinforced latex gloves! We’re talking about sluts getting tattoos on their axe-slash! They’re not exactly virginal Heidi skipping down the mountain from her secluded forest home! If you’re going to put your hand where countless men have deposited their gene pool, you might as well just go and start licking toilets in the mall.
And to any of you dudes who’ll start telling me how “hot” it is for one chick to do this to another chick, come on over to my place … I wanna show you how hot it can be for one guy to spray paint Pepe Le Pew on another guy’s taint. It’s the same damned thing!
There was a time when I absolutely loved Dead Or Alive, the synth-pop trio fronted by singer Pete Burns responsible for the dance classics You Spin Me Round (Like A Record) and Brand New Lover. Burns was a weirdo even then, an androgynous guy who still seemed somewhat masculine (as opposed to Boy George, who felt more feminine). Like Boy George, Burns had a fantastic voice. And, like Boy George, Burns has spent the last twenty years wasting his talents.
Since the music industry abandoned Dead Or Alive’s brand of synthy cheese sauce, Burns has spent the last two decades and countless thousands of dollars surgically-altering his face. He now looks like a Kabuki performer who stuck their face in a hornet’s nest. The only substantial music this golden throat has created in that time period are endless remixes (also known as rip-offs) of their biggest hits. Sad, sad, sad.
Now Pete Burns is preparing to release a new single titled Never Marry An Icon, and he released the cover art for the song: (more…)
