I'm posting this for no reason other than I have to post it.

It’s a moral imperative that I post this – because of Adam West, not because of that turd of a TV Networks that has canceled, cratered and destroyed some of the best shows on television. I hope you live forever, Adam West.

Obligatory "Day After" Thanksgiving Post

JM Bell | November 27, 2009

This has been a particularly annoying year – and it was late in the day before I could wrap my head around anything aside from the default things I’m Thankful for – and, too be honest, there weren’t many things. One thing, however, that I am thankful for, is that after Cartoon Network won the [...]

Mystery Science Theater 3000 is old enough to drink today

JM Bell | November 24, 2009

21 years I’ve been watching this show …. if only it had been on the air that long … From TV Squad – The show officially hit the airwaves on a local Minneapolis station, KTMA, on Thanksgiving Day in 1988 by a young, fresh-faced Joel Hodgson. The rest, as people who rely on cheap cliches [...]

This is the greatest thing of all time. Except for Katee Sackhoff. And Kelly Brook. And Gillian Anderson …. etc.

The Gap – How do I support a store I don't shop at?

JM Bell | November 23, 2009

Joe. My. God. frames it up so well, I’ll just quote him, and then say something pithy at the end … After being targeted with a boycott by the American Family Association as an anti-Christian retailer, GAP began airing a commercial that does use the word “Christmas.” But it also mentions Hanukkah, Kwanzaa, and the [...]

Fox News Fun "Facts" of the Math variety

JM Bell | November 23, 2009

Well, even with their war on science, the GOP has found a way to break the Space/Time Continuum. From Wonkette: What happens when enterprising Americans watch Fox News and use Twitter simultaneously? Constant hilarity, that is what, as you can see from this fun “info-graphic” on the Fox News, which explains how Sarah Palin’s supposedly [...]

The Pledge of Allegiance is un-American

JM Bell | November 17, 2009

I can only hope that my kids end up this precocious. I’d be very proud. From Salon: On Monday, Oct. 5, at an elementary school in Washington County, Ark., Will Phillips, a precocious 10-year-old who had been promoted from third to fifth grade, refused to join his class in standing and reciting the Pledge of [...]

Instant Punchlines – The O'Reilly / Beck Not So Fresh Tour

JM Bell | November 16, 2009

You ever get that “not so fresh feeling?” I’ve got it now … I have to ask again – Why is protesting a war un-American, but preaching and advocating for the overthrow of the elected Government of the United States so patriotic? I once again find myself nodding along with the echoes of former Rep. [...]

John King = Juan King?

JM Bell | November 15, 2009

See you, Lou. Don’t let a fact bite you on your ass while you’re wandering the Earth doing “good deeds” for the White Folks.
