Charlie Sheen - Winning? Nope, Fired!

Warner Brothers announced today that they are officially terminating the train wreck that is Charlie Sheen.  CBS Television had no comment.

Considering "Two and a Half Men" is the #1 rated show on CBS, this decision was not taken lightly.  My regret is for the other actors and crew.  I hope CBS and Chuck Lorre can come up with a plausible plot line and keep the show going.  Though, without the morally bankrupt Sheen, it just won't be the same.

Donald Trump - A Chump! "No Civil Rights for Gays"

The Donald in what may be his greatest act of hubris yet is considering running for President.  In that vein, he has made a sharp right turn to appeal to the basest of the base.  He makes his opposit8ion to same-sex marriage in a recent interview with the Des Moines Register when he was quoted as saying, "they should not be able to marry."  He went on to say he hasn't developed a "fully formed" opinion on extending medical and civil benefits to gay couples, but he added: "As of this moment, I would say no and no."

So The Donald has spoken. Now I wonder what his hair/toupee dresser has to say?  It's time for this rich asshat to be out of the public eye.  His 15 minutes of fame were up years ago and had it not been for a tawdry "reality" TV show he would be off the stage.  It's time to ring down the curtain on him and let him play with his billions in private.  I suggest stop watching any chow with Donald Trump in it, and letting the networks know why you are turning to another channel.

Charlie Sheen Unplugged

The slow motion train wreck that is Charlie Sheen got even worse.  Saturday night he hosted a "webcast" of what he called Sheen's Korner.  As one commenter put it perhaps it should be called Sheen's Coroner.

Sheen rambled without making any sense for an hour and showed off his new tattoo.  Across his left wrist is the word, "Winning".  If his life is winning, I would hate to see what losing is.

Sheen and his cast of misfits, who I can only assume are paid staff and "buddies" who have attached themselves to him made fart sounds, laughed at non-jokes and generally looked like a room full of people who would much rather be boozing it up than talking on the internet. 

As Craig Ferguson noted, in England there used to be a mental asylum called Bedlam where for a penny you could peep through holes at the insane people inside.  Well Charlie Sheen is giving it away for free.

It's a sad journey he is on and he has decided to let the whole world watch as he self-destructs.  Having been around a whole lot more addicts and drunks that I would have ever imagined, I can tell you he is in a manic "dry-drunk" phase if he has indeed stopped drinking. The anger, megalomania and blather coming from him is a dead give away.  He is in trouble and I sincerely hope he can get help before it's too late.

Glenn Beck, Obsession With Fists?

Glenn Beck discovers Fisting!

Shhhh! Rupert Murdoch May Be Listening!

Seems the folks at News Corp have been busy, busy tapping into mobile phones of important people, in the UK at least.

According to the Guardian:

Scotland Yard announced a fresh inquiry into allegations of widespread phone hacking at the Murdoch-owned News of the World in January. The Met also told Prescott there was evidence his phone may have been targeted by Glenn Mulcaire, a private investigator who was employed by the paper.

More information is starting to come out.  I imagine that should these allegations prove true, the FBI will start making a few inquiries of it's own.  I cannot believe that only the UK branch of the Murdoch disinformation giant was alone.  Could FOX news be far behind?

Remembering Jane Russell

In all the craziness I forgot to post this in memory of Jane Russell one of my favorite performers of the 1950's.  This number is about as homoerotic as it can be, but I suspect that was lost on the audience of the day.  Enjoy!

Anti-Gay Preacher Arrested for Obscenity Near School Yard

Talk about your Southern Decadence!  Seems like one of the most vocal critics of New Orleans annual gay summer party has gotten caught with his pants down, literally!

The Rev. Grant Storms was arrested for obscenity after witnesses told police they saw him touching himself while watching children on the playground at Lafreniere Park in Metairie.  

Storm and his minions show up with bullhorns at Southern Decadence every year and harangue visitors with shouts of "perversion and sinners".  Personally, I never considered gay sex a perversion, but jerking off to kids on a playground?  Aw heck that's just plain creepy!
