End of Pontiac

No car brand in the United States ever enjoyed as much free publicity and promotions as Pontiac.  From the days of Ronnie and the Daytonas singing about the GTO in the 60′s: To the hysteria over Smokey and the Bandit in the late 70′s:   When I was seventeen or so, you weren’t cool at all unless you had a… (more…)

Mel’s mistress tinkles?

Every so often I see a headline that makes sense.  This one does not.  But, it might explain what is so special about Oksana Grigorieva:   Mel Gibson’s alleged mistress Oksana Grigorieva tinkles the ivories I can honestly say that is a special trick I’m not too interested in.  Mel can have her. UPDATE: May 25, 2009:  Apparently Oksana did… (more…)

That Miss USA controversy

Ok, for starters, I haven’t watched a Miss USA pageant since college I guess.  It made for some chucks and giggles in a house full of half-drunk guys “judging” the talent on display.  But, since I don’t do that a lot these days, it just gets kind of droll and boring.  With the advent of movie channels, I just don’t… (more…)

Why photoshop Jennifer Love Hewitt?

This is in Maxim: Now, look at her feet.  As far as photoshopping goes, this is awful.  A simple tool called “smudge” would have done the trick, and no one pays me to do that kind of stuff.  But, the bottom line to me is, why even bother?  This is Jennifer Love Hewitt for crying out loud.  No one is… (more…)

Mainstream media going tabloid

Mrs. Moon and I both have both been irritated, and sometimes amused at what passes for news these days.  Foxnews has gotten predictably trashy.  Just a sampling from today’s headlines: Cheerleading Coach Fired After Posing for Playboy  Porn Stars and Puppies ( No, it’s not what you think.  At least, that’s not the story. ) 10 Cuddly Cougars ( They’re not… (more…)

Hannah Montana: The Movie

In order to have a family event, Mrs. Moon decided we needed to go see a movie. Given the fact me and the boy had already seen the other two or three kids’ movies, we were pretty much compelled to watch Hannah Montana: The Movie. Now, the first thing I noticed was my boy and my two nieces sat all… (more…)

Rescue Shelter Boys?

PETA never ceases to amaze me.  Today’s stupifier: “Dear Neil and Chris, You have many loyal fans of the Pet Shop Boys here at PETA. We have a request that may at first seem bizarre, but we hope that after considering the following facts, you will understand why we are asking this of you: will you please consider changing your… (more…)

DD explosion in Australia

Foxnews ran this teaser: Cups Runneth Over: Up to 40 Percent of Australian Women Wearing Size DD Bra or Larger? Which, per Fox norms, linked straight to another article: Boom in bust sizes for Aussie women, buying DD or higher In the second article, they came to all kinds of conclusions about women with larger cups being fat, or younger… (more…)

Watchmen

  Me and Mrs. Moon went to see Watchmen yesterday.  It was kinda neat in some ways, very annoying in others.  It really seemed hung up on violence moreso than anything else.  Although the movie had some inexplicable plot changes throughout the movie, and some soap opera elements, the one thing you could count on in each scene was the… (more…)
