Facebook Is Irrelevant

So… Facebook has announced it has passed ONE BILLION USERS. Sounds like a reason for a huge celebration. What an amazingly awesome global community! We should all rejoice together because we built it… together! But unlike the supermarket that rewards its one millionth customer with…

Dueling Fanatics

Two very popular websites and what they posted at exactly 3:00 PM Pacific time today (October 2nd). The real question going into the debates tomorrow isn’t who will win – Obama or Romney? (FYI, Fox News has already declared Mitt Romney the winner.) The real…

The End of Scientology

Like Ragnarok, Harry Potter, Lord of the Rings, and The Sopranos –  all things (good and bad) must end. And that end has come for the Church of Scientology. It was an experiment that just didn’t work. For Tom Cruise, it’s another high-profile bomb  – like…

Is Hollywood Funding Chinese Propaganda?

Hollywood is so desperate to grow their businesses in China they would almost do anything. Look the other way while the Chinese government continues to abuse the basic human rights of its citizens?  Check. Alter the content or severely edit a movie in order to…

Andrew Breitbart – Dead And Already Forgotten

Andrew Breitbart died just after midnight last night. He was 43 years old. I offer my deepest condolences to his family and friends.  A sudden death like this is incredibly tragic. Yes, he was an asshole (at least in my mind) and a much hated…

Because of Sean Hannity, Republicans May Never Win Again

And that’s fine with me. In 2010, when the Tea Party won quite a few House seats and a couple of Senate seats , many people were wrongly tricked into believing that a serious political movement had begun and a rise of the Far Right…
