POP: 10 best Christmas comedies; old PopCast; Buffy!

The return of Buffy


We don’t want to jinx anything. In fact, we won’t even comment. We’re just going to link to this right here and walk away. Slowly. Shhh. This is like the fourth inning and the pitcher is throwing a no-hitter. No one say anything.

Dollar General

Boy, howdy, but this site can be aggravating! For 45 minutes I've been trying to find the story about the Dollar General to be built on St. Helena- I catch a glimpse of the headline, go to navigate to it and it jumps out of the way and disappears like a ghost! Just gone. What is going on with this?


Black Friday Madness Shootings, A Stampede, and 70 Stores in Charleston Super Glued Shut

Yep! Some pranksters put super glue into 70 King Street Store Front Door locks last night or early this moring. Details at http://cedarposts.blogspot.com

While is CA there was a shooting between to rival groups in a Toys "R" us store, I'll assume fans of Guitar Hero vs Call of Duty fans?

And a 34 year old Walmart employee was trampled to death after he turned his back on a crowd of nearly 2000.

Y'all shop I'm going to watch from the sidelines.


Alter ego maniac

Today I am both tired and stuffed, which makes me not care too much about real news. Well, that's not really true...I'm up to date one what's going on in the world but I don't feel much like writing about it. Instead I will tackle a subject that has always interested me: alter egos.

I got thinking about alter egos a few days ago when I was reading a Slate article about the birth of Sasha Fierce, Beyonce's alter ego.


Shop 'til you die? This is disgusting. . .

A man was KILLED by a crowd of 200 people who trampled him to death trying to get into a Walmart.

You have GOT to be kidding me. There is NOTHING worth dying for in a Walmart. There is nothing worth killing someone else over in a Walmart, even that $120 blu-ray DVD player I personally purchased this am at a Walmart which had almost no one in the parking lot at 9am.

Then the crowd trampled a pregnant woman and killed her unborn child.

People, its only stuff. You can get more stuff.


Remembering Pearl Harbor Day!

Dear Editor:

As we approach the 67th anniversary of the tragedy known in history simply as Pearl Harbour, the United Fascist Union thought it appropriate to offer our heartfelt sympathy to the real victims of those horrific events; Japanese-Americans and the Japanese Empire. We know now, that December 7th 1941 really was a day in Infamy like the devil in human form, Franklin Roosevelt, proclaimed.
