I know they have differences, and I know it’s a bit obnoxious to interchange their names like I just did, but I am a little bit of a pain in the neck, if you haven’t noticed. Sorry, I just think mussing up Mitt Romney and Newt Gingrich’s names are funny. And to be frank, I’m ...
Mainstream media is accusing the Occupy Wall Street movement of not having a unified message. They are using that accusation to discredit the movement entirely. Since the adorable little hippies are braiding their hair so closely to mi casa, I figured I’d visit them again to see if any of them can, indeed, articulate a ...
You know I wouldn’t be doing my thing if I didn’t have a little fun, but in all seriousness, I very much
How is it legal to inflate the value of homes, property, or other assets to the point where a market downswing would mean the disappearance of trillions of dollars?

Apparently, Mark Twain’s “Huckleberry Finn” is going to be reprinted with the N-word being removed. All 200+ instances of it. Whaaaa? It’s easy for me to say censorship is NEVER a good thing, but I’m not an African American. I am not descended from people who were enslaved, so it’s hard for me to grasp ...
Happy New Year, everyone! I think I’ve made it clear in the past that I’m not a New Year’s resolution type of human, but I DID think it would be interesting to hit the streets of Times Square to see what other people are expecting to happen around the globe in 2011. This video is ...
Whatevs. This video is about how fame-obsessed our society has become, aight? Whether it’s how many Facebook friends, YouTube views, or dumb reality TV show appearances we have, our measurement of self-worth has become a sort of fame that is meaningless, not earned nor deserved, fleeting, and soul-crushing. Not to mention just plain irritating. Who ...
