Holidays inspire all kinds of gimmicky things. Peeps, for instance, are at the top of my list of favorite holiday tackle, as are those chalky Valentine’s Day hearts, thanks mostly to this episode of Futurama. (”This concept of ‘wuv’ confuses and infuriates us!”)
It doesn’t really matter that even the most entertaining of this stuff is [...]

One of them, Malecia El-Amin of the Dallas Morning News, has filed a very [...]

We wrote recently about the chances of putting more presidential faces on Mount Rushmore National Memorial (very slim). Now Barack Obama has weighed in on the issue. Well, sort of.
The likely Democratic candidate for president took a break Friday night between campaign stops in Montana and South Dakota – where the last presidential primaries are [...]

Someday, I hope to be able to visit this majestic monument. It must be awe-inspiring to stand in front of something so huge! In the meantime, I'll have to content myself with pictures, and the kids with their history books.

The Catalan believes the home fans are adding unneeded pressure and being overly reactive to him and his teammates. He goes on to compare football to theatre, which is quite interesting, and also does a Chris Crocker by telling the fans to come after him when things go wrong and not his teammates.- Rushmore star Jason Schwartzman has broken his toe playing shoeless soccer. The irony of it is, after filming a movie for four months in India and being shoeless for

l-r Washingon, Jefferson, T. Roosevelt and LincolnMt. Rushmore is one of those American icons that everyone knows what it looks like before actually visiting in person, sort of like the Statue of Liberty or Disneyland. We made this pilgrimage for my daughter, but also because my husband and I think it's one of those places you have to see in your lifetime as an American. I had low expectations, and I'm glad I did otherwise I would have been sorely disappointed in the tourist trappings around this institution. That and we got yelled at by some crazy old man for pausing long enough to allow some folks to take photographs of the monument before blocking their view with our car going through a narrow tunnel.I wanted to yell out of the car, "Hey, we're on vacation and trying to have fun here, dammit!", but refrained. Though his outburst did put a damper on the energy building towards the climax that would be a full frontal view of Mt. Rushmore memorial. But, in the end, I had to adm

Our wives are smarter than us. In fact, we have no problem with it. There is very little downside. We aren’t asked our opinion on important stuff. When the computer is broken we don’t have to fix it. When our kids have homework, they insist on helping. Sadly, we also have to admit that our sisters are smarter than us too. Both of them graduated Magna Cum Laude, while we graduated Magna Cum Lucky. Both of them were some sort of “dictatorian” in high school. Both of them left high paying jobs in the private sector so they could give back to the comm
Peyton Manning may have finally won the Super Bowl, thus unofficially making him the best quarterback in the NFL, a spot previously pretty much reserved for Tom Brady, but Tom seems to fall out of bed and land on a pot of gold every damn day so it matters not to him.
