My new favorite t-shirt

I was at a comedy club last night and saw Gabriel Iglesias. First off, the guy was freakin' hilarious. And what was great was that ALL five other comedians were outstanding as well.

But I must say, one of the highlights was when he referred to a T-shirt he saw. Yes, I went and looked it up. And yes, I have already purchased it. Regardless of your political affiliation, or who you're voting for, you gotta admit... it's classic!

Hero of the Week - Voters of Brattleboro, Vermont

Last Thursday I started a gimmicky blog feature called "Creep of the Week" that basically calls out people in the news for their behavior. Now while I admit, it's fun talking about people, I've noticed that in my search for creeps, there were five times as many heroes. So as to not wallow in negativity, every Tuesday I'll offer my Hero of the Week, spotlighting people who go above and beyond to help out, have a cool idea, or just normally do good by others. You know, the stuff we're supposed to do.

This week's hero(es) are the good folks of Brattleboro, Vermont. They've basically drafted a symbolic measure to have President Bush or Vice-President Cheney arrested if they ever visit their town. Of course it's a bit extreme and will never be taken seriously... but let's face it... the idea is AWESOME! Good job guys.

Gotta love stiff old white men

I'm a little late to the party but I finally heard/saw this today. Needless to say, it's an instant classic. He definitely gets my vote now, due to the fact that he speaks my language. He really has his finger on the pulse of the young African-American. OK, but seriously, how fucking condescending, ignorant, and just plain racist is it to feel the need to "talk black" around Black people? You can't just say, "Hello?", or "Nice to meet you all!", or the very simple but still popular, "Good afternoon!" Do you think that if there's no reference to a rap song then we won't understand what you're saying? I wish there were such thing as a negative vote. Fuck Romney.
