John McCain Does The Monster Mash

HerBadMother — Thu, 16 Oct 2008 16:57:00 GMT

You didn't know this, but last night's Presidential Debate was actually followed by a dance-off. And guess what? JOHN MCCAIN WON!

This will not turn Republlican fortunes around, of course, nor will it convince John McCain's children to stop rolling their eyes at him, but still, it's pretty awesome, and I think that John McCain should be proud.

(Obama was doing The Robot. He's not very good at it, though, so you can't really tell.)

John McCain Bingo!

sweatpantsmom — Tue, 07 Oct 2008 23:05:00 GMT

As a parent, I'm always looking for ways to get my tween daughters interested in the political process, especially events like tonight's Presidential debate. So imagine my delight when I discovered John McCain Bingo! Now, instead of duct-taping my kids to the couch and bribing them with quarters, I can play a fun game with them that will teach them important buzzwords like, 'maverick' and 'accountability.'

Here's how to play!

Before tonight's debate, visit John McCain Bingo and print one copy of this game card for each player, refreshing the page before each print, or have the players print their own bingo cards. These instructions will not be printed. You can also select card only and multiple card versions of this page when playing on line, or with a PDA.

Check off each block when you hear these words during the speech or debate. When you get five blocks horizontally, vertically, or diagonally, stand up and shout OBAMA!

Combine this with your favorite debate drinking game, and it'll be loads of fun for the entire family!

Tina Fey Getting Set To Do Palin Debate Spoof This Weekend

HerBadMother — Fri, 03 Oct 2008 22:46:00 GMT

... And guess who's coming onboard to play debate-moderator Gwen Ifill?

Queen Latifah will be making a guest appearance, apparently, and will play Gwen Ifill. Which: awesome. No word on who's doing Joe Biden, though. Whoever that is, I have got all fingers crossed that they spoof that moment where Biden puts the smackdown on Palin for suggesting that she's special because she's a mom - you're a hockey mom? OH RLY? Well, my wife DIED (wipes tear).

That moment was genius. If the SNL crew could work that moment into the sketch - winking Palin and weepy Biden and all - I'd be eternally grateful.

Joe Biden Chokes Up on Matters of Family: Video

Whit Honea — Fri, 03 Oct 2008 22:04:00 GMT

During the SNL skit that was the Vice Presidential Debate last night there was one moment that jumped out as pure truth and genuine sincerity. I know, we're not used to such things in politics, but it was there and it was touching.

Some background: Joe Biden's first wife and his young daughter were killed in a tragic accident in the early 70's. His two surviving children were in very serious condition. Biden was literally sworn into his seat in the U.S. Senate while standing at the hospital bedside of his injured sons. Regardless of your politics that is undisputed and utter sadness.

Last night Biden touched, albeit briefly, on that time in his life and for just a split second America saw something better than politics and finger-pointing. They saw a man's love of his family and the shadows of his loss.

Sarah Silverman: The Great Schlep Video

Whit Honea — Fri, 26 Sep 2008 22:51:00 GMT

Sarah Silverman used to grace these pages a bit more when she was the subject of pregnancy speculation by one Jimmy Kimmel (or Matt Damon). Then she and Kimmel broke-up and the speculation ended. Then she and Damon stopped f*@%ing, and Silverman rode off into the FameCrawler sunset. Or so we thought.

She has a new video and it doesn't involve her being a celebrity parent. It involves her being a celebrity grandkid. Sure, we'll roll with it (because it's funny).

The video is very ~~liberal~~ progressive and will probably offend someone, which I'm sure will make Silverman quite happy. Every time she pisses someone off she gets a dollar. That's a good deal, especially for her.

Here's Sarah Silverman and The Great Schlep Video (NSFWish):

GQ Presents the Most Whipped Husbands in the WORLD!

Whit Honea — Sun, 30 Mar 2008 22:34:00 GMT

GQ has compiled a list of men that have been subjected to the proverbial "p" whipping by their bossy and/or powerful women. Many of them are fathers as well. I think there is a big difference between being a dotting dad and wuss, I hope GQ took that into consideration.

That said, here's the list:

25. Mark Consuelos, wife Kelly Ripa
24. Rudolph Giuliani, wife Judy
23. Larry King, wife Shawn Southwick
22. Michael Douglas, wife Catherine Zeta-Jones
21. Seal, wife Heidi Klum
20. Kevin Smith (the Clerks director), wife Jennifer Schwalbach
19. Sergay Brin (34-year-old Google wunderkind), wife Anne Wojcicki
18. Ben Stiller, wife Christine Taylor
17. Gerald Levin (the former CEO of Time Warner), wife Laurie Perlman
16. Jack Welch (the former General Electric chair-man and CEO), wife Suzy Wetlaufer
15. Tim Burton, wife Helena Bonham Carter
14. Keith Urban, wife Nicole Kidman
13. Elton John, husband David Furnish
12. John Edwards, former presidential candidate, wife Elizabeth
11. Woody Allen, wife Soon-Yi Previn
10. Ashton Kutcher, wife Demi Moore -he's top 5 for sure
9. Howard Stern, wife Beth Ostrosky
8. Rupert Murdoch (Aussie billionaire), wife Wendi Deng
7. Kurt Warner (quarterback for the Arizona Cardinals), wife Brenda
6. Marc Anthony, wife Jennifer Lopez -shouldn't he be higher?
5. Josh Kelly, wife Katherine Heigl
4. Bill Gates, wife Melinda
3. Eminem, wife Kimberly
2. Doug Christie, wife Jackie
1. Guy Ritchie, wife Madonna

There is a slideshow at GQ that explains why each man made the list. It's pretty funny, at least it seems like it is, my wife wouldn't let me read it.

Jamie Lynn Spears in Hustler!

Whit Honea — Sat, 29 Mar 2008 20:05:00 GMT

Britney's little sister Jamie Lynn is appearing in the latest issue of Hustler. Yes, she's pregnant, and yes, she is 16, but that's the point. The picture is below and NSFW.

Her face was superimposed on the body of Ellen Page for a spoof of Page's hit movie "Juno" called "Oh No." By the way, if you are planning to search for "Hustler" and "Oh No" on the internet, brace yourself.

The fake poster includes quotes from such notables as Kevin Federline, Paris Hilton and Lindsay Lohan- a regular who's who of Hollywood players.

Says Hustler's Editorial Director Bruce David, "We just couldn't let this one slip by us! The pregnant 16-year-old sister of Britney Spears, it's too perfect! You can't make this stuff up!"

I know that Hustler was trying to be funny, and I can see the idea of this ad being such, but to be honest their effort is pathetic and tacky. Their writers are pretty weak, which is to be expected considering that people don't buy Hustler for the articles, no matter what Larry Flynt thinks. It's not humorous and while I love me some dirty talk, it is just vulgar for the sake of vulgarity. I thought Hustler was for adults not 14-year-old boys, oh wait, scratch that. That's like saying cigarettes aren't targeted towards teens. Wink, wink.

So here is the ad, it's not funny and not safe for work.

Kate Moss Owes the Easter Bunny a Favor(s)

Whit Honea — Fri, 28 Mar 2008 17:32:00 GMT

The good thing about being rich and sometimes beautiful is that people tend to do what you want. In this case the person is actually a bunny- the Easter kind, not Holly Madison.

It appears, and I'm just going off something the Jezebels said, which they probably made up, that Kate is treating Lila to her Easter celebration some 5 days late. It's okay, Kate, I've had hangovers on Easter, too. Nobody is judging you.

Rapper Cavlar Shot

Whit Honea — Wed, 26 Mar 2008 17:17:00 GMT

According to the New York Post, up and coming rapper Cavlar was "gunned down yesterday on a Brooklyn street as he stepped out of his Jaguar to meet a promoter.

The rapper and father of three, whose real name is Leval Lyde, was hit by a single shot to the chest on Fulton Street at 4:49 a.m. as his cousin watched in horror.

The shooting came after Lyde, 36, argued with the gunman and two of the killer's pals - all of whom fled."

As the story above states, Cavlar left behind three children. Senseless.
