Buzz Kill

Editor’s Notes: This is my first post for Andrew Breitbart’s BigGovernment.com. It has to do with all things young and sexy, i.e. booze and fun. As always, a government agency proves to be the antithesis of such things. Enjoy! Many remember a creation, or rather concoction of The Drew Carey Show, Buzz Beer. The delightfully titled beverage was a mix of coffee and a presumably dark beer… stout perhaps. Buzz Beer almost became a character of its own, as it evolved into an ongoing... more

You Can’t Please Everyone.

Editor’s notes: Not that this is a surprise to ANYONE, but apparently Michael Moore is a drinking buddy of Hugo Chávez. Moore-over, he apparently helped write the anti-American rant Chávez gave at the UN. Wow, WTF? When is Hollywood going to get its collective head out of its ass? Who knows? But until then, here’s what E.M. has to say:   If you have a story about how you got trashed on tequila with Hugo Chávez, its really best to keep it to yourself. Michael Moore, the filmmaker who is a... more

We’ve all seen those festive, special edition logos on Google’s homepage, to commemorate certain events. These include holidays and celebrations, as well as historically significant dates. Some over the years have been somewhat obscure, and leave people wondering what day it is. Half the time, I’m not even familiar with the event being commemorated. For example, last year Google commemorated the 50th anniversary of the LEGO brick, worldwide on January 28th with this logo: I mean,... more

I’ve thought for many years, that US education is in decline, especially among universities. Not because they’re underfunded, or the students don’t care, but because of political correctness. In our current political climate, offending anyone is the chief concern at most schools. We’ve all seen this play out in the textbook wars. Even though history is sometimes inconvenient and somewhat offensive, it is what it is. But that hasn’t stopped textbook manufacturers like... more

The UN makes life a little easier… for pedophiles.

This is a story that SHOULD HAVE broken, back in June. I can’t believe it stayed under the radar this long. People… I dig up news all day! It’s what I do for a living and I just heard about this today. Clearly, this is a story that the mainstream media and very few independent sources wanted to touch. I guess I can sort of understand why. It has “controversy” written all over it. On June 21st, the United Nations Educational, Scientific and Cultural Organization (UNESCO),... more

Go green! Pee in the shower!

The environmentalist fringe of society has always been… a little off, and it’s become even worse in the wake of global warming hysteria. In the last few years, I have heard some of the strangest prescriptions for “saving our planet.” I saw some guy on Fox News the other day, telling people to keep their homes at 78 degrees, EVEN WHILE SLEEPING! I’ve heard people say it’s best to gas-up your car, either before the sun comes up, or after it goes down. Somehow it... more

Cowabunga Dude!

Yesterday at her confirmation hearing, Judge Sotomayor went into great detail about nunchucks… I know, awesome. But I don’t think we needed this much detail. Just get to the point Sonia. We’ve all seen the Ninja Turtles and know what weapon Michelangelo uses. By the way, why does Orrin Hatch interject by saying nunchucks are bound by “rawhide?” Senator Hatch, you’re really dating yourself dude. Or was that a throwback to our Native American bretheren? Everyone... more
