Noteworthy news

On Friday, July 9th, the very last PT Cruiser rolled off the line.

sniff, sniff, sniff.

No, I'm not being funny. My PT Cruiser is my dream car. I want to own it forever! If I could afford it, I'd buy another one right now so when this one dies, I'll still have one. Chrysler is going to replace it with the Fiat 500, a really stooopid looking car. Booooooooo. It just looks like an amped up version of the Smart car! Blech.

The other incredibly stooopid news story I saw this weekend had to do with, surprise, the Rev. Jesse Jackson. He said, in regard to Dan Gillberts statement that LeBron James was a coward;

"He speaks as an owner of LeBron and not the owner of the Cleveland Cavaliers," Jackson told The Associated Press. "His feelings of betrayal personify a slave-master mentality. He sees LeBron as a runaway slave."

I don't give a shit about LeBron James. He's NOT the greatest to ever play. He's not even in the same league as Magic or Jordan or Bird or Shaq. He sure is full of himself though. His old team feels betrayed that he's leaving, and so do the fans. It happens all the time for heavens sake! But for Jesse Jackson to make a statement like that is so incredibly asinine, on soooo many levels!! If someone told me this story, I would have said they made it up. The Rev should retire. His time has come and gone.

My favorite article is written by Jason Whitlock;

And the big question Yahoo is asking this morning? Are silly bandz just a fad? Duh.

Oh brother.
