Nobody sits down to compose a letter these days. Instead, they talk, text, or Tweet, so we've prepared a time-saver for those hipsters, geeks, and Twitteristas who haven't the time to reduce the classics to Twitter's required 140 characters, counting spaces. We've prefaced them...

In a one-off interview with God (sorry, no photographers were permitted), this reporter had the privilege of learning His plan to file lawsuits against individual members of Congress and clergy. Though I could actually not see Him, I knew He...

The Republican Party's planned another attack on America last night, appears to be the number one topic this morning. When congressman Puppet shouted out his vile and lying accusation, it was designed to distract Americans from talking about the President's speech. They succeeded.

We've been waiting almost a year to find out from John McCain where bin Laden is hiding, since McCain said during the campaign that he not only knew where that was, but knew how to get him. Want to...

Elsie Poncher was one smart lady, and so was her late husband, Richard. In advance of the inevitable, he had purchased two side-by-side burial spots in Westwood Village Memorial Park from Joe DiMaggio when Joltin' Joe and Marilyn Monroe were divorced. One spot is...

In a debate with Rachel Maddow on MSNBC, President Obama said, "If only we had had the Public Option in our health overhaul, Wolfgang Mozart would be alive today."

Due to high ratings generated by the appearance on CNN's Larry King Show of Michael Jackson's brothers, Michael Jackson's sisters, Michael Jackson's father, Michael Jackson's ex-wife's ex-lawyer, Michael Jackson's ex-doctors, Michael Jackson's bodyguards, Michael Jackson's own ex-lawyers, Michael Jackson's good friends, and the...

When it comes to great characters from famous television commercials, the most memorable appear no more: 1997 Taco Bell's talking Chihuahua ("¡Yo Quiero Taco Bell!"); 1989 LiteCall's Mrs. Fletcher ("I've fallen and I can't get up"); and 1984 Wendy's Clara Peller ("Where's the...

When Kenny Rogers sang, "Ya got to know when to hold 'em, know when to fold 'em ... " in his hit, "The Gambler," he was singing about more than playing cards, he was singing about housekeeping.

With all that's going on in the...

Everybody loves a bride. Why, women love to see one almost as much as we love to be one, especially a June bride.

Back in the 15th Century, most people got married in the month of June because they took their yearly baths in...

Before the days of modern medicine, people relied on folk remedies. To ward off the flu, for example, you might have to wear a sock full of onions eat a spoonful of hot chilies on a piece of pumpernickel, or hold your face over a steaming haddock. Today, fortunately, we...

On May 11th, a 44-cent rate-change stamp featuring the great thoroughbred racehorse, Seabiscuit, will be issued by the U.S. Postal Service. This stamp is significant for one huge reason: We the people did it! It took us eight long years, but we did...

Ah yes, comfort food. We're talkin' mashed potatoes and gravy, Mallomars, potato chips and meatloaf. But for me my friends, it's the time of year where new dimensions will be reached to the very definition of the word "comfort."

It's Peeps time. And...

97.3 per cent of all statistics are made up. That's why it's so helpful for insomniacs to listen to our Washington politicians quoting statistics. Since we have no idea where their numbers come from, we also have no...

TPTB at CNN must be watching MSNBC, because it's apparently trying hard to compare Campbell Brown to Keith Olbermann.

What, CNN's not happy enough with the hate-spewing Lou Dobbs? That's not enough negativity for one channel? They...

Sarah Palin has not suddenly become environmentally hip, but she has gone green... with envy. She may not yet be able to answer which newspapers she reads, but she certainly has figured out how to stay on their pages.

She picks out celebrities and piggybacks her name onto theirs, just...

When Al Gore sounded an alarm about global warming, everyone became aware that mankind (an oxymoron if ever I heard one) must preserve itself and the environment. If we are to survive, we must waste nothing and, like the Corleone and Soprano families, we must enter the business of waste...

When I was assigned this interview with a bunch of reindeer, I could not have known how difficult it would be to get to the bottom of the Rudolph myth. Neither could I have known how complicated would be the logistics involved in getting...

Sarah Palin, on hearing of Governor Blagojevich's recent alleged bribe-seeking troubles, has offered herself up on the political platter to govern Illinois as a sign of friendship, emphasizing that she "only needs to find out also where it...
