Don't forget Gino Torretta!

More proof that ESPN's Lee "Don't forget Gino Torretta" Corso is a complete and total moron. Corso threw a major fit while being interviewed by a couple of sports radio guys in Dallas earlier this week. (Audio is here.) For those of you who are unfamiliar with Corso's nickname as I have given him above: […]

Don't Panic!

The new Hitchiker's Guide to the Galaxy trailer is available on Amazon.com. I'm not sure I quite like how they've dealt with Zaphod Beeblebrox's two heads, but here's hoping they didn't screw up Douglas Adams' work too badly.

Speaking of criminal lawyers

Lawyer Lynne Stewart, who was convicted of numerous terrorism-related charges is quickly becoming a cause celebre among leftists terror-supporters. The National Lawyers Guild -- a bunch of America-hating lawyers -- is sponsoring a "National Day of Outrage" Thursday.

Crime round-up

Today's Union-Tribune crime briefs contain four violent attacks. Only one of them used a firearm; two were knives and the last was a broken bottle. If people want to hurt other people, gun control won't stop it from happening.

Friday Night Lights

Just got done watching the DVD and I was really impressed with the movie. It's probably one of the, if not the, best football movies made. I might have to raid the elder Hoy's bookcase and dig up his copy of the book. One thing I thought was humorous was the movie's explainer on Brian […]

Clerical errors

I'll bet that his ghost would get kicked off the jury for cause. A Delaware County man who prosecutors say was killed by his father-in-law was called for jury duty in his alleged killer's murder trial. A court clerk says Scott Borton's name was listed in the jury pool for the first-degree murder trial of […]

More on the media

I must admit that I love it when people cite Media Matters for America as a source of unbiased information. Most times, when a journalist admits that he or she has been a liar, they disappear from the radar. You don't see Janet Cooke, Jayson Blair or Jack Kelley running a media criticism Web site. […]

Eason Jordan is gone

Apparently he got a job offer at al Jazeera. (Not really.) CNN's top news executive had accused the American military, at a forum in Davos, Switzerland, of deliberately targeting journalists in Iraq. A few thoughts: I'm surprised that Jordan has resigned. I believed that if Jordan's admitted sell out to Saddam Hussein (Jordan confessed to […]

Quote of the Day

From the former vice-presidential candidate and senator, John Edwards. "Republican leaders believe in only one thing, wealth," Mr. Edwards said. "President Bush talks of an 'ownership society' but it is nothing but an exclusive club with the doors closed for people who work hard for a living." John Edwards net worth is estimated at between […]
