He’s the best “amateur” pop culture critic I know.  Entertainment Weekly needs to hire him immediately.* *(On second thought, his commentary is way too smart for EW.)

Holy shit Avatar is amazing
Go see it immediately.  Preferably on Imax.  Definitely in 3D. This movie had some of the most mindblowing visuals I’ve ever seen.  Instant Oscar front-runner, in my opinion.  James Cameron’s done it again.

Life imitates "Better Off Ted"
HP’s new webcams have “face tracking” technology that zooms in on your face as you move around the room. One problem — it doesn’t work with black people.

The CBO score makes it sound like a win-win: It will reduce the deficit by $132 billion over the first 10 years and then $1.3 trillion over the second 10 years. In addition, CBO estimates that the legislation would cover more than 94% of all Americans under 65, and provide coverage to an additional 31 million Americans who currently lack health insurance. The people opposing this bill are not...

Your tears… they taste so sweet: After hearing of Ben Nelson’s gutless selling of his soul to the Devil… I decided I should tune in C-Span 2 to watch the destruction of the Republic as we know it first hand.

This sucks: C. Spencer Beggs, Multimedia producer for the New York Times News Service/Syndicate, tells us: “I’m out Dec. 31. Been there a year and a half. Got 4 weeks salary. I was full-time, non-union.” Fuck off, NYT.  I hope you go bankrupt the day after his severance runs out.

Apparently it's drunken Christmas hijinks day
First the drunk 4-year-old, now this: Police in Sparta say they cited a man dressed as Santa after witnesses told officers he stumbled out of a vehicle, approached several children playing in a yard, hugged them and demanded to know the whereabouts of his reindeer. My favorite is the quote from the little girl: “He smelled like alcohol, so I knew it wasn’t the real Santa, because...

I don’t want to say he deserved it, but this was no tragic accident — it sounds like he was in the process of beating his fiancee: Police released two 911 tapes. The first was from an unidentified woman who said she was following a yellow pickup truck. “It’s got a black man on it with no shirt on, and he’s got his arm in a cast and black pants on,” she told a...

GOP begins efforts to slow down health care bill →
The party of “No” will stop poor people from getting health care by any means necessary: Oklahoma Republican Sen. Tom Coburn, who is also a physician, has just set into motion the reading of an entire 767-page amendment on the Senate floor.  Typically, “the reading” is waived, but Coburn objected, which is his right. Republican sources say this is an intentional use of...
