Is Joe Paterno Really Dead?

Is Joe Paterno really dead?  Mark Twain immortally said once, "The reports of my death are greatly exaggerated."  Various news organizations spread the news that Joe Paterno had died last night, and I recalled reports of  Zach Braff of Scrubs in which a webpage was set up by a Scrubs fan announcing that Zach Braff had committed suicide. It was an attempt to fool some friends and film their reactions, however he neglected to take the web-page down and it became a Facebook and Twitter sensation.
It just goes to show that you can't believe everything you hear and read.  I guess when it is my time to go I will be the first to know!  Oh, and by the way, I am back blogging!  Reports of my demise are greatly exaggerated also!

Dr. Jack Kevorkian died early this morning at a hospital in Michigan. He was 83. Rumor is he took his own medicine! :)

WeinerGate : The Shame of CNN or "News Gone Wild"!


Today's post was an obvious choice because it is so ridiculious to even talk about.  I watched CNN's Wolf Blitzer Interview with Rep. Weiner video with absolute befuddlement!  For those of you who do not know, Rep. Weiner supposedly sent a picture of himself in his underwear to a woman in Twitterland!  Is that now the definition of a lewd photo?  Then, I guess all of the Sears catalogs that have been published, even K-Mart's too, are smut peddling devices!  Even if Rep. Weiner did send a picture of himself in underwear, and even if he is covering it up by deflecting comments about it, it is an example of a news media frenzy gone wild!  If you watch the interview with Rep. Weiner, it is 7 minutes 36 seconds of ludicrous nausea that I felt CNN and E! sprinkled in with "TMZ" merging into one piece of garbage!  And CNN actually headlined this at 5PM!  Satan himself is laughing somewhere!

NHL Back In Winnipeg...DO YOU EVEN CARE?

After 15 years of exodus, the NHL has returned to Winnipeg! Why would you care about such a thing; you probably don't even like hockey. I'll give you a couple of reasons why you should. 1. The NHL gets to right a wrong leaving a passionate city such as Winnipeg in this first place! 2. The NHL signed a major television deal to last the next 10 years bringing more hockey into your living room, even on Thanksgiving! 3. Canada gets another hockey team again, making our next door neighbors happy! 4. Hockey gives us all a diversion from the chaos that is called life! So there, I said it! So, learn to like hockey! Or I will throw an octopus at you!
