We’re going in the Hudson, Torn Slatterns and Nugget Ranchers

Bad


There is an active volcano in Alaska. It is serious, Sarah Palin can see the smoke from her house.

The gift

Valentines Day is near and if you are thinking about a gift for your loved one, you can’t go wrong with a Snuggie, the blanket with arms. Because nothing says you care more than a gift that says; “I think you’re too stupid to operate a regular blanket.”

Complicated

The blanket with arms, the Snuggie is everywhere. Paris Hilton got a Snuggie, but she couldn’t figure out the directions.

Not easy to please

How about that US Airways hero Chesley “Sully” Sullenberger.? Not everyone is happy with “Sully”. Today Al Gore yelled at him for polluting the Hudson River.

Not easy

It is not going to be easy for President Barack Obama to institute tax reform. First he has to explain to his cabinet members what paying taxes actually is.

That guy

Bad news, that big annoying rodent that won’t go away predicted six more weeks of winter. What’s his name again? Oh yeah, Al Roker.


Quite a difference

Did you know that, at the inauguration, former President Bill Clinton met Hudson hero Chesley B. "Sully" Sullenberger? One landed in the Hudson the other hopes to land on Kate Hudson. 

Oh no

Rough day in Pennsylvania yesterday. The ground hog, Punxsutawney Phil, saw his shadow and predicted six more weeks of Rod Blagojevich interviews.

Good booking

This Rod Blagojevich nut job is everywhere on TV. Daytime talk shows, night time talk shows morning talk shows. And tomorrow his hair is going to be on “Animal Planet.”

Since you asked:

Now, I don't want to go off on a  rant here - but when has that ever stopped me? - but we need a little perspective with this Christian Bale tool. 

As you've probably heard, pretty boy Batman Bale goes postal on some lighting guy with an F-bomb laden tantrum. Now all these Hollywood big shots are running to his defense spewing about how hard it is to be in-the-moment in a movie scene and have that moment ruined.

Meanwhile while these La La land actors try to hoist Christian on their actor's cross, the cockpit tape from my man, Chesley B. "Sully" Sullenberger comes out with the Hudson Hero reacting to both engines dying and having to ditch his jet in the Hudson like he was just told there would be another minute wait for his table. As we speak aging Yuppies in the entertainment business are melting down hysterically if there isn't enough foam on their Latte. 

So, apparently, movie stars want us to believe that getting make-up put on and playing pretend for millions of dollars is a lot more stressful than landing a disabled plane in a crowded city river. 

Can you imagine how Christian Bale would have reacted if he had to bail a jet in the water?

And yet Hollywood wonders why we think they're a bunch of self-important knobs?
