Heard of a little someone named Franklin Delano Roosevelt? Or perhaps his wealthy cousin Edward??

No, didn't think so.

You sneaky obfuscator, Greg Palast PROVED that the '04 election was stolen in Ohio. He wrote a book about it that has been very well received by serious and disinterested parties in Europe. Why am I not surprised that you failed to mention his book in your article?

..."the suits" are FAR too stupid to understand the dollar potential in Facebook Scrabble. It's just too easy to sit around on their lazy asses and soak up profits from the original bored game.

Did I just write "bored" instead of "board"? My bad...so outre.

If you had said that twenty years ago, I'd be next in line. But now?? Do post-menopausal women really make your bacon???

EEEEEWWWWWWW!!!!

That child is a very young girl, probably between the ages of 12 and 14, who has watched a lot of videos and has an instinctive sense of how to get lots of pervish men (of ALL ages) to tune in. Nothing special, nothing myterious. Just listen to her voice. Any more pubescent helium in it and she'd be making her videos from her bedroom ceiling. And speaking of which, has anyone used the magic "Pause" button (hard to do while typing with one hand, I know) and taken a look at her bedroom? That is the room of a young teen, especially the bed, which is actually that of a child.

The pervier amongst you are going to point out her rather mature-looking breast size. I guess you haven't been reading the reports in recent years of girls from Western, industrialized nations maturing at every-younger ages.

Also, she's clearly not Japanese. She may speak a little (classes, perhaps?), and her "blog" is probably written by someone else.

Frankly, I think Farhad should stick to topics of real relevance. You know, about, like, technology and stuff???

Alan Dershowitz used to be one of my heroes. I would watch him on "Nightline" in high school and college, always fighting the good fight. But then things changed.

I used to work in one of those gee-gaw shops on Fisherman's Wharf in San Francisco, and I met my share of celebrities. In one day walks Alan Dershowitz and his son. Since I was expected to try and sell to everyone who came into the store I walked up to him and his son, smiled, and said "How are you doing today?" He looked at me like I was a slug. And it got worse from there. I was mortified, humiliated and utterly shocked that my hero would behave in such a way. Looking back, I realize I was seeing the man for who and what he is.

Whether acting like an outrageous jackass while debating Noam Chomsky, helping to deny Norman Finkelstein his much-deserved tenure, or advocating for torture, Alan Dershowitz has pushed himself outside the pail of human decency. Remember, it was HIS advocacy of "torture warrants" that opened the unthinkable up to debate. And we know the results - Abu Ghraib, Gitmo and so on.

What a tragic end to a life that started so well.

How do you manage to NOT get banned from this sight?

Oh, that's right. I forgot how far your snoot is lodged up a certain Managing Editor's cooze.

I'm almost sure of it. I know a couple of people who take Ambien semi-regularly. According to them it one tablet knocks a person right on their ass. When he said in November that he was popping two Ambien tablets to get ONE hour of sleep, that should have raised a very large red flag with somebody, because something was drastically wrong. But it didn't, and now he's dead. SHIT!

I've seen the extended trailer to "The Dark Knight" and, oh yes, did we ever lose somebody major. It's like James Dean all over again. This summer that movie is going to come out and everyone who cares about cinema is going to be grieving anew, just like people did in the 50s when "Giant" was released.

I mean really, only someone who regulary has carnal relations with his mother could possibly come up with a piece of shit t-shirt like the one described in this article.
