• Vote: Should a candidate's private life be open for scrutiny?

  Fri Jan 20, 2012
  • When a politician bases their entire political career yapping on about "values" as Gingrich has done, then "Yes", their private life is completely relevant. If a politician argues for privacy for everyone - not just themselves - then they earn more of a pass for privacy from me.

• Bourdain kind of regrets 'crass' comments about Deen

  Tue Aug 30, 2011
  • I enjoy watching the Food Network, but the fact is that you would kill yourself quickly eating the food they promote on a regular basis.

• Buffet challenges GOP dollar-for-dollar on debt

  Wed Jan 11, 2012
  • Buffet's a good guy to call the Repub's bluff this way - but the real scandal is in how the whole "writing tax policy" scam works.

• Fed investments send $76.9 billion to Treasury

  Tue Jan 10, 2012
  • Yeah - end the 1 part of the government that gets an actual return on their investments. Somehow it doesn't seem like the best idea in the world to me.

• Alaska town buried in snow gets shovel help from troops

  Mon Jan 9, 2012
  • I wouldn't live in Alaska, but I've been there, so I know how GORGEOUS it is - the people who live there have lots of reasons to do so. I hope they don't get hurt during this series of storms.

• Trump: Huntsman and Paul are 'joke candidates'

  Mon Dec 5, 2011
  • Huntsman isn't getting traction because he's an intelligent guy who usually doesn't speak in sound-bites - and unfortunately being intelligent and not kneejerk is a detriment in today's political environment where Mr Casino Trump can be taken seriously as a candidate. Jeeeesssh!!

• Share your movie pet peeves

  Wed Oct 12, 2011
  • My big complaint? In the era of big multiplexes with small staffs to run them, if there is a glitch in your theater - the projector freezes mid-frame and stays there - nobody running the theater will automatically notice.

• Vote: Is Romney the inevitable nominee?

  Wed Oct 12, 2011
  • Romney would love to be the inevitable nominee and he's the classic Republican nominee - disciplined. on-message, tough to ruffle, unexciting but stable. But this isn't your grandmother's Republican Party and once people start voting in the primaries, anything could happen.

• New ice cream flavor: Fat Cat Fudge Ripple?

  Mon Oct 10, 2011
  • Occ-u-pie ice cream - a delightful combination of vanilla ice cream flavored with bits of octopus and apple pie. I'd pass, but I'd pass on MANY of Ben & Jerry's unique ice cream flavors - most of them, in fact. Still, I'm glad they are supporting this important protest movement.

• Secret panel can put Americans on 'kill list'

  Thu Oct 6, 2011
  • For everyone that objects to the killing of this guy - do you want to be on a plane when the next person that he counseled and inspired flips the switch on their explosive ipod or cellphone or diapers or whatever they dream up?
