The most popular college majors

Here’s a list of the 10 most popular college majors. That’s interesting. What I think is even more interesting is what the top 10 *should be* based on the current needs of our economy. My sense is that many of these majors (English literature, biology and psychology) are romantic majors that people take up with [...]

The Greatest Tina Fey Moments

AfterEllen has a nice list of the best Tina Fey TV Moments. Worth a look. Tina Fey is a comedic genius and that has come through brilliantly with her Sarah Palin sketches.

The Sarah Palin SNL Rap

Oh my gosh.  Amy Proehler kicked ass last night with that amazing Sarah Palin rap (that Sarah Palin apparently refused to deliver).   You’ve totally gotta watch.  It’s brilliant.

The Coolest Dog Costume Ever

Ok. Halloween is approaching and I’ve got to say that this is far and away the coolest dog costume I’ve ever seen.

Joe The Plumber Is Not Average Joe

There’s something fishy about the Republican’s newest meme, Joe the Plumber.   And BusinessPundit nails it:  Joe the Plumber is not Mainstream America.  Well, he is and he isn’t.   The Joe that the McCain camp has portrayed is not Mainstream America.  However, Samuel (his real first name) doesn’t actually make more than $250k per year and [...]

Ever wonder where famous people like Steve Jobs, Bill Gates, Barack Obama, Sarah Palin, Howard Stern and Warren Buffett went to college? Here’s your answer: Famous People & The Schools They Went To College. [Via: COEDMagazine]

Thoughts on the last debate (October 15) …

Thoughts on the last debate (October 15) – My view was that McCain had a slight advantage especially with the Joe the Plumber talking point. Despite this, McCain came off as being on the attack, and reinforced his grumpy old man persona. So while McCain probably won, he won by fractions of what he needed [...]

presidential debate october 15

So tonight, October 15th, is the final presidential debate.   Here’s what McCain has to do to have any chance at the win ->  he needs to have a one liner in his closing speech that is the sound byte for the next day.  How does he do it?  I would suggest that he just ask [...]

Palin As President

This is one of the coolest things I’ve seen in a while.  It’s called Palin as President and basically it’s an interactive satire where you see Palin sitting in the Oval Office.  You then click on things with very cool effect. [Link]

David Archuleta’s Ego

Either David Archuletta’s ego wasn’t damaged too much, or he doesn’t want to risk it getting damaged any further. E! Online reports that David Archuleta will not be trying to compete with David Cook and release his album on the same day.

conservative pundits ridicule McCain

This YouTube video makes the clear point that McCain’s campaign is not only in trouble, but has been horribly managed. If McCain can’t run a campaign (and this video has conservative after conservative asserting that his campaign borders on malpractice) then how can McCain run a country? Or just the same, isn’t it reasonable to [...]

dog costumes

Ok. Let’s face it. Some dog owners are just crazy. Like these ones who dress their dogs up in ridiculous costumes.

saving money or wasting time

You know how every once in a while you come across something that changes your thinking. Here’s an article that I read today that asks the reader to weigh savings with costs. For example, to save a few cents on gas, is it worth it for me to drive an extra 2 miles? I think [...]

Sarah Palin Getting Ready for Halloween

Ok.  So I understand that she’s the most attractive political candidate of all time.  But this is getting a little absurd.  Or maybe just comical.   See what I mean:  Sarah Palin Haloween Costumes

Gibbs & Hannity

Robert Gibbs of the Obama Campaign is probably my favorite political operative of all time after he knocked out Sean Hannity. Laid him out. On the floor. Blood oozing from his freakin’ nose. (Video: Robert Gibbs & Sean Hannity)

There are some guys I know who wish more women would step up to the plate like this: Leryn Franco catwalk photos (may be NSFW).

Depression Proof Jobs

Some of my favorites on this list of the The 21 Most Depression-Proof Jobs included mortician (I guess all the Wall Street nut jobs who are being exposed) and the sex worker (for the Wall Street nut jobs right before they go to the mortician).

So I was watching the videos at College Crunch’s Dumb and Funny College Videos and the College Saga video just totally brought back killer memories.
