Janet, Ricky Bobby & Martha

Big News

After losing 60 pounds, singer Janet Jackson appears topless on the cover of Vibe magazine. Before she lost the weight, she wouldn't fit on the cover.
- Rumors indicate Janet is try really hard to get a date with Ricky Bobby.

Martha Stewart will pay about $195,000 and cannot serve as the director of a public company for five years under a settlement announced Monday on civil insider trading charges with the Securities and Exchange Commission. This means Martha is now a free woman and will retain her full divaness.

Just think, some day we'll all look back on this and barf.

A Very Special Week Indeed

This is Elvis Week, time to go to Memphis and stand in line at Graceland to feel the vibrations from the rockabilly spirit world.
- And don't forget to buy a younger-skinnier souvenir and have a memorial chicken-fried steak.

This is National Chigger Week, time to warn everybody to be on the lookout for the dreaded chigger, which usually can be found tiptoeing up your body looking for a place to have a picnic.
- Chiggers are 100% crude. They not only eat your leg for lunch, but then they spit on it. It's the spit that makes your leg itch.
- But trying to get even with a chigger is hopeless. They're so tiny, you can't even see one, much less spit on it.
- There is a way to stop the itching. Mix a dab of ordinary meat tenderizer with a tablespoon of water and rub it on the chigger's picnic site. The tenderizer contains an enzyme called papain, which performs several miraculous wonders, one of which is the neutralization of chigger spit.
- See how we learn things on this blog.

On August 8th in 1981 President Reagan endorsed production of the neutron bomb, a bomb that kills people without damaging their property. Which makes about as much sense as the neutron rifle, a gun that would blow your brains out without messing up your hair.

Today's politically explosive trivia question: How can a nation that builds nuclear missiles, atomic submarines, and neutron bombs call itself civilized?
- Because in some cities we do outlaw firecrackers.
