  • White House Blocks POWs Compensation

    The Bush administration is fighting the former prisoners of war in court, trying to prevent them from collecting nearly $1 billion from Iraq that a federal judge awarded them as compensation for their torture at the hands of Saddam Hussein’s regime. The rationale: Today’s Iraqis are good guys, and they need the money.

  • Funniest Jokes of All Time

    My favorites from the list of 100 Funniest Jokes of All Time: Three kids come down to the kitchen and sit around the breakfast table. The mother asks the oldest boy what he’d like to eat. “I’ll have some fuckin’ French toast,” he says. The mother is outraged at his language, hits him, and sends […]

  • Saw

    I remember seeing the preview for Saw and totally loving the concept behind it: two men chained to floor of a room with a dead body and no idea how they got there or how to get out. It has the claustrophobia that fuels most of Cube. The kind of ‘two guys in a shithole’ […]

  • Andrew Lloyd Webber's The Phantom of the Opera

    I was hoping to make some crack about ‘raise your hands to the level of your eyes’ about this movie but it was pretty good for a ham-fisted musical parade. The Phantom of the Opera always seemed more like an American musical than a British one. So heavy-handed, over-produced and melodramatic. Sort of like a […]

    Anybody know anyone connected with the Gay Games? I just saw they’re hiring for an IT coordinator – I could totally rock this job. I just emailed my resume.
