This is certifiably hilarious: Thanks to A.J. for passing it along.

Charlsie sent this Op-Ed today and I agree with it 100%: I’ll say this upfront: I hope the titans of finance who expect us little people to save them are ashamed of themselves. But at the same time, in painting Main Street solely as a victim of a rapacious Wall Street, we [...]

Ladies and gentlemen, the best time of the year is upon us: football season. I’m talking about real football. College Football. Lots of games on tonight — I’m not sure which one(s) I’ll be watching. Oregon State at Stanford sounds more interesting to me than NC State at South Carolina, but the SEC fan in [...]

I just don’t really have any words to describe this (emphasis supplied): Until Sunday, 35-year-old Carla Ramson lived in an apartment in southwest Atlanta with two men she identified as her husband and live-in boyfriend, according to an Atlanta police report. Both men were arrested after they got into [...]
