News Good Morning, News!

Posted by Wm. Steven Humphrey on Wed, Jan 2 at 9:40 AM

As Amy already mentioned, Commissioner Erik Sten will be stepping down from his post as of April 1, leaving everyone to wonder who will fill that gap. GET IT?? GAP?? He has a big gap in his teeth?? (Am I the first one to do that joke? Anyway, I call dibs. DIBS!)

Polls indicate that Barack Obama and Hillary Clinton are dead even with John Edwards quickly gaining ground with one day to go before the first presidential nominations in Iowa. (Side note: Why do they allow Iowans to do anything?)

Writer’s strike be damned! Letterman and Leno return tonight with new late night episodes. Letterman received an exclusion from the Guild, and will have his full writing staff, while Leno will have to make up his own jokes. OH BOY! THIS IS GONNA BE A TRAIN WRECK!

Happy Days dad Tom BosleySTILL NOT DEAD.

Oregon gays will NOT be able to legally register in same-sex partnerships today as previously planned… but how about a nice candlelight vigil instead?

Riddle: Who’s got two thumbs and a new iPhone for Christmas? THIS GUY! (Note: I already had the thumbs. It’s the iPhone that’s new. That being cleared up, can someone please tell me how to work it?)

An Unlikely Celebrity Sex Tape: Malaysian Minister
By Mike Nizza

If Malaysia’s Minister of Health, Chua Soi Lek, was a lucky man, he might have fended off recent accusations of infidelity the way many others have: by working the he-said/she-said (or he-said/he-said) angle for everything it is worth and hoping that the next news cycle forgets you.

But Mr. Chua is not a lucky man, at least not today.

It seems the ministerial sex romp in question was captured on tape — from four different angles — and then edited into not one but two full-length DVDs, which were peddled on streetcorners and even seemed to reach some people as junk mail, according to the New Straits Times, a major Malay daily controlled by the ruling party.

How to operate your I-Phone-

Take your I-Phone in your hand and throw it as hard as you can at a solid wall, then kick it as hard as you can. After doing those 2 steps, take it outside next to the road and wait for a big truck to come by, like a garbage truck, throw the phone under the tires as it speeds past you. After completing this final step go back inside and thank me.

Another piece of I-Crap gone!
