Happy Halloween!



Courtesy of CNN, and one of the most depressing grouping of lead stories, ever. (Click to enlarge, cause for some reason I can't seem to make pictures post the size I saved them as.)

When did Cracker Jacks start to suck?

This is probably the most important question you'll ponder today. Why has Cracker Jacks decided to only populate its classic American snack with stupid ass prizes. I want my damn temporary tattoo or reflective sticker. All you've given me lately is a weird factoid sheet about George Washington and a pencil topper. And by pencil topper, I mean a piece of paper with a hole at the top and the bottom.

You know the country is in bad shape when Cracker Jacks starts the downward slide. Of course, I just had my first box in about 10 years last week, so I could be a little slow on realizing the demise of the product... but seriously, it's shocking.

I'd listen if a candidate brought this up. Could make me change my vote.

Hey Russia, buy me a battleground state ad!

Have you seen the nutty rumors about the McCain campaign asking for money from Russia to fund TV adds? And Russia declined, making a point to mock the campaign for asking for money after being critical of the country's handling of the Georgia situation? 

It all seems really strange, and I'm not seeing much mainstream media coverage of this. Here's a breakdown from Politico. They say they're verifying it, and if this is true, I don't understand why more people aren't picking up on it.

The 112 comments on this post as of 9 p.m. on Monday are pretty entertaining.

The Important Question

Wondering when someone is finally going to ask the candidates..."What's on your DVR?"

Long time no blog, folks. I suck.

However, I have somehow managed to continue to feed my monster TV habit despite being busier than I've ever been in my life.

A few random thoughts:

-Very excited that Pushing Daisies is back.

-Can't get into Heroes this season. I think it kind of blows.

-Still find Boston Legal both fantastical and funny, but it's always the one thing left on my DVR that I just can't make time to watch when I get too busy.

-Greek is the best show on right now targeted at people 10 years younger than I. Yes, even better than Gossip Girl, which I still unabashedly love for the campiness factor.

-Last weekend, while friends were in town, we discovered Parking Wars on A&E. If you're not familiar, it's pretty much what it sounds like... a reality show that follows the Philly PPA as they boot, ticket and tow around the city. It's both terribly boring and terrifically awesome.
