Alright. I know. This post is late… but it’s both of our faults. I’m having some trouble getting Chris to send me his posts on time and he’s having some trouble getting me to post them when he sends them. Oops.
This week Toni Basil joined the panel of judges. Back in the day she was [...]

read emails between sanford and mistress.
Last Thursday The State, a South Carolina newspaper, published emails (allegedly) sent back and forth between Governor Mark Sanford and his mistress. The ones in this article were sent around the Fourth of July last year, which of course means only one thing: Mark Sanford hates America.
Take a look for yourself. These emails are just…embarrassing. [...]

the girl who does not age.
I’m not going to comment a lot on this story because I really don’t even know what to say about it other than you MUST read this. It is, by far, one of the craziest things I’ve ever read. It seems like it should be science fiction.
Brooke Greenberg, age 16, does not age. The doctors cannot figure out why. [...]

grayson wynne is boy vs. wild.
Apparently shows like Discovery Channel’s “Man vs. Wild” have some value. When 9-year-old Grayson Wynne was separated from his family during a camping trip in Utah’s Ashley National Forest, he remembered the things he had seen Bear Grylls do. (That man, by the way, is the biggest fake. Not that the New York Post is [...]
