    Governor Blagojevich, I Salute You

    By Michael Wolraich on Wed, 12/10/2008 - 2:34pm | Politics, Humor & Satire

    The mob has gathered round the house of Governor Rod Blagojevich, waving their virtual pitchforks and shrieking for justice. Our own Deadman has even called him "ugly." Shame on him. Governor Blagojevich may not be married to a hot Star Trek actress, but he's a fine looking man, if a bit jowly. And no one is fooled by Aman's crocodile tears; we know that he yearns to return to his hometown and claim the office of Governor for himself. (When asked who would replace Blagojevich as Governor, he innocently shrugged in mock ignorance.)

    Why do doctors suck so much?

    By Orlando on Tue, 12/09/2008 - 7:09pm | Personal

    I’ve known a lot of doctors in my life. And when I say known, I mean spent five minutes in a small room with, while I explained what was wrong with me after which they made their diagnosis and got irritated when I asked my inevitable questions.

    What can I say? I like to learn stuff. I’m inquisitive that way.

    More fun with cardboard: Obama speechwriter Jon Favreau gropes cardboard Clinton

    By Michael Wolraich on Tue, 12/09/2008 - 12:37am | Politics

    Cardboard strikes again: Jon Favreau has been busted for a facebook photo in which he was caught groping a cardboard cutout of Hillary Clinton. Now I can understand the allure of two-dimensional women. In college, my (coed) roommates kept a cut-out of a model stroking a massive six-foot bottle of beer in our common room.

    Fallen heroes, Jinximus Maximus Mortimus, and some quick football thoughts ...

    1) How sad is this photo below? Charles Rogers was a former star Michigan State wide receiver and a first-round pick of the Detroit Lions just a few years ago. Like most of the Lions picks over the past decade, Rogers was an unmitigated disaster; doing very little on the field except suffering season-ending injury after season-ending injury. He was quickly out of the league, and apparently has since experienced only trouble. His latest arrest was for violating probation stemming from an assault and battery case in September.

    To Bail or not to Bail

    By HSG on Sun, 12/07/2008 - 1:54pm | Business

    To bail or not to bail, that is the question,
    whether tis nobler for Detroit to suffer
    The slings and arrows of outrageously high unemployment
    Or to guarantee huge loans against a sea of debt,
    And by paying them off end them?
