Pit bulls and rottweilers, along with several other breeds of dog, suffer needlessly from bad reputations given by an ignorant public. It doesn't help that the "news" media seems to be constantly reporting on "deadly pit bull attacks," that those reports use the word 'pit …

If being a louse were a crime, John Edwards would hang for it. But he is instead facing prison for alleged campaign-finance violations, and it is our obligation to come unenthusiastically to his defense. He may be guilty of bribery, and if he were a sitting senator he would lik …
Levon Helm either dead or dying.
Yess sireee do I remember the good 'ol days like it was jus yesterday. The year was 2008 and some fella by the name of Obama was runnin' for president. This was back'n the day and we didn't have no fancy "customization features" on our home page. I tell you, if us ol' timers wan …

The Super Bowl champion Green Bay Packers got their championship rings Thursday night in a ceremony at Lambeau Field. Here's a look at the behemoth finger decorations that would rip the arm out of the socket of a normal human being.
Jon Stewart owed the American public an apology. And Tuesday night they got one — and something extra.
: excerpt: LOS ANGELES — Has the 3-D boom already gone bust? It’s starting to look that way — at least for American moviegoers — even as Hollywood prepares to release a glut of the gimmicky pictures. Ripples of fear spread across Hollywood last week afte …
With baseball season going on, as little as I pay attention, I’ve noticed most times I see a game I see a lot of red and blue. Baseball is a very old and traditional game, so the standard patriotic color schemes make sense.
My town has become ground zero for the end of humanity. I send this message to you in the hopes that this can still be stopped before it spreads to far. As far as I can tell, I am the only survivor.
