These people at TMZ just do nothing for me. They have a website, and they have a 30 minute syndicated TV show. What a complete waste. Worse, that our society supports it is just sad.
While I love the opportunity to see what my favorites are doing, …

Being that I’m no spring chicken anymore, I’ve seen more commercials in my lifetime than I’d care to admit. That’s why when a fun group of ads come along, it’s worth mentioning, especially since I use that wonderful remote control to avoid most commercials these days.
Being commercialed-out, it’s …

Probably my favorite commercial creation since the Energizer Bunny is the Aflac Duck. This quacking creature really amuses me, but more so now that Aflac is sponsoring NASCAR driver, Carl Edwards. As a result of the sponsorship, Edwards has been doing a series of ads for TV …

Now that football season (well, pre-season) is starting again, I am once again making my weekly visit to Packers.com in order to read their weekly dope sheet.
