Let's hear this fellow out.

But what about his case?!

pot_book_page-thumb.jpgThis exciting new kid's book, "It's Just a Plant: A Children's Story About Marijuana" is a great way to let your kids know that IT IS OKAY that his or her parents are stoned on pot all the time. It will definitely come in handy when me and JMZZ get around to making a couple of butt babies.

Speaking of which, I hope "It's Just Poppers" is the next title in the series!

dazzler.gifDespite reports to the contrary, it turns out Activision still plans to release the sequel to the amazing Marvel Ultimate Alliance within the year!

At the very least, maybe Psyazzler will be featured in a NPC capacity?


...in front of the FLDS polygamous ladies! Did she really ask them to explain the significance of their hair?!!??!
It's a bad sign when a live performance is necessarily prefaced by a URL address.

Tricia Walsh Smith is a Park Ave trophy wife who is very upset about the dissolution of her marriage, and she's valiantly taken to The YouTube to air her grievances, as well as to crow about her favorable Tarot card readings.

This video is the dark side to the Real Housewives of New York City story, which turned into nothing but Sweetness & Light by its finale last night. Which is exactly why I think Tricia Walsh Smith would make a fabulous addition to their inevitable second season? (Note to BMAD: you may need to update your KWIZ).

Speaking of RHONYC: Is it just me or are all five of the Real Housewives totally wonderful people undeserving of any criticism we could throw at them? I even came around on Alex and Simon Van Camp by the finale...I for one think the fact that their precious son Francois is a normal, plays-with-food and screams-loudly-at-parties type speaks well of them as parents. And who knew Countess LuAnn was so charitable? Wasn't she SO NICE to that struggling poverty mommy...she even called her "CLEAN"!

First Cindy McCain stole Percocet and Vicodin from the hands of veterans at a WAR VICTIMS’ CHARITY and now this! Almost fifteen years after Cindy’s painkiller thievery was exposed, the Huffington Post reports that Mrs. McCain stole recipes from the Food Network and dishonestly passed them off as her own!

On a section of McCain's site called "Cindy's Recipes," you can find seven recipes attributed to Cindy McCain, each with the heading "McCain Family Recipe”…. some of the "McCain Family Recipes," were in fact, word-for-word copies of recipes on the Food Network site.

Yes, Cindy was taking credit for recipes concocted by the amazingly bulimic chef Giada De Laurentis and America’s trash bag Rachel Ray!


Shame on you, Cindy. No wonder your husband has such kind things to say about you.

maximo.jpgMaximo is one of a not-so-new breed of out-and-proud Mexican wrestlers called exoticos. Apparently, they've been around since the 70's, delighting Mexican audiences with their amazing combination of fey, tinkerbellish prancey-danciness AND their strength and utter determination to win, but they've been experiencing a recent surge in popularity according to articles like THIS.

He's the only exotico I know anything about but clearly he is the BEST of all the exoticos. Just look at that skirt...and look at that smile! Anyway there's a VIDEO of him doing his lucha libre magic after the button pressy thingy.



But can it play a BEAMZ?

This AIDS-awareness webseries "In the Moment" is reasonably well produced, acted, and written, as PSA webisodes go. I mean, it's at least twenty times better than QuarterLife. But it is still worth watching primarily to make fun of the embarrassingly "fierce" faggotiness of the dialogue.

Some dialogue highlights from the first ep: "Who's thirty and dirty?!" "Whore!" "I'm Edgar. You're hot." "And Mike gets discounts with his senior citizen card." "Woof."

The most realistic--and haunting--thing about this video is the terrifying sexual avidity of Edgar's gaze. The guy who checked my groceries at the Wegman's on Santa Monica Blvd used to fix me with an identical (and identically creepy) sexual stare.

Also: is "Woof" making a comeback or something? I thought that expression died in the early 80s, along with all the men who ever used it. Moreover, isn't "Woof" like a come-on or catcall to be used on passers-by, not on ALREADY INTIMATE ACQUAINTANCES? LOL.

Last thing: Why is it that when people type on their laptops in bad movies or TV shows (or, I guess, WEBISODES) they always TYPE SO HARD?

Thumbnail image for mccaingirls.jpgIn case this is the only website you read (that is, in case you are my mother) I thought I should break the news here that The McCain Girls were, indeed, just messing around. According to HuffPo, they are the products of comedy site 23/6 and are in no way actual John McCain supporters.

Now that the truth is out, it's kinda funny how little funny there is leftover.

Oh well. Maybe La Pequena is working on something right now.

Is "Rock Band" just TOO INEXPENSIVE to fit into your high-swank lifestyle? Do the garish "Guitar Hero" guitar controllers clash with the furniture in your condominium? Have you always wanted to try a Theremin, but the idea of buying a USED piece of musical equipment gives you hives?

Then "BEAMZ" is the perfect toy for you!

This is video of an AZN pop group's backup dancer having an onstage seizure. I'm posting this mainly for the Disdainful Glance of Supreme Heartlessness at 19 seconds.

Thumbnail image for gay-porn-mystery-man-of-the-year.jpgThis guy is so obviously hot I'm afraid it might be a little too easy to guess, so I am going to be a bit light on details upfront. Let's just say that this former PM of Israel is still a VERY PROMINENT figure in Israeli politics...as well as in MY FEVERED SEXUAL FANTASIES.

I will spare you a full recounting. Suffice it to say, they typically involve me in the role of a peacenik Israeli petitioning him at his office at the Likud -- he's the party's current chairman -- and begging him to ease up on his hardline stance on the Occupied Territories; him calling me a hippie weinie and friend of the terrorists, then proceeding to strip and rape me on his desk.

CTSjpg.jpgAs many of you know, April 15th is a big day in this country. While some losers will be rushing to file their taxes, I will be sitting at home LOLing while watching the long-awaited return of Courtney Thorne-Smith to prime time television. Yes, According to Jim is finally back and according to JMZZ, Hollywood's wealthiest actress-turned-writer-turned-mommy-thorne-smith is going to be better than ever. Here's a sneak peak at what kind of hijinxxx we can expect next week:

Jim realizes that Andy has forgotten to use a gift certificate that he had bought him for his birthday. Not wanting to let his money go to waste, he heads off to a restaurant and treats himself to a hefty meal, and all seems fine until Andy remembers the gift certificate just hours before it's set to expire and invites Jim to share in the feast.

Oopsie! LOL. Thank god those writers are back at work!!

Yeah, we're definitely in diminishing returns territory here...but I made a promise to post ALL THINGS MCCAIN GIRLS and I intend to keep that promise.

I just hope they do "Kiss the Rain" next.

JMZZZ, have you looked into Morton Downey, Jr.'s trashy grave?


Oprah's staff created this loving tribute to the talk show host's recently deceased dog Sophie. It's the same Sophie who recently purchased Gayle King a "$7.1 million full-floor sky palace atop the 36-floor building at 207 E. 57th St." You go, Gayle!
