The Lost Nixon Tapes

Matthew June 26th, 2009

Lets get it on.  You know what Im talking about.  Come on baby!When it comes to presidential controversy, Clinton is the Barry Bonds to Nixon's Hank Aaron. Sure, Clinton may have bested Nixon on paper, but in our hearts, no one could ever replace Tricky Dick. Truly, there will never be another Nixon (to kick around).

That's why we're so jazzed that the National Archives has just released a whole new batch of Nixon recordings. And if you thought you knew the man before, brother, take a listen. You don't know the half of it.

The PETA Files

Erik August 11th, 2008

As we reported this weekend, the recent horrific cannibalistic attack on a Greyhound bus in Canada has prompted a newspaper ad response from People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals.

What, you may ask, does the tragic beheading of an innocent 22-year-old man have to do with animal rights?

Here's a quote from the PETA press release regarding their ad:

Celebate

Matthew July 22nd, 2008

The good news: teens are having less pre-marital sex. The bad news: it's probably just because they're too busy taking stolen pain meds, illegally downloading music, and obsessively texting each other.

Or maybe they're having less sex because of a revolutionary new product called Celebate.
