The top 50 most shocking celebrity pics of 2008
There are many songs that came out of the IRA struggle against England. Most of the songs are dated now, but this one is unique. It is actually an anti-war song. Listen to the lyrics, about an IRA man- who let his target live. Trust me, Al Qaeda has no such song.

PETE LUGAR'S FABLED STEAK AGING ROOM REVEALED, TOP 10 SPACE PIX OF 2008, EARTHA KITT REST IN PEACE, AIMEE MANN'S A CHRISTMAS CAROL, WATCHMEN MOVIE COURT ROOM SHOCKER!
A county health department in southern Illinois found its Christmas party anything but tasty after dozens of people fell ill at a restaurant.
The head of the Lawrence County Health Department says she was among 42 people who got sick during the buffet gathering of 72 people on Dec. 15 in Lawrenceville. http://wcbstv.com/watercooler/health.department.sickened.2.894852.html
Last year, Aimee Mann released a pretty funny short movie about trying to get celebrity guests to join her for her annual Christmas show, and she's followed it this year with a four-part spoof of A Christmas Carol featuring John C. Reilly, John Krasinski, Paul F. Tompkins, and more. If you've got 20 minutes to spare, check it out. If you don't have a ton of time, definitely watch part three, in which she negotiates with Michael Cera. The whole thing was directed by Tim Heidecker of Awesome Show, and he makes an appearance as well.
A woman explains the connection between Ian Fleming, his creation James Bond and why it works. And I think she's right by the way.

Looking back, Michelle Misiaszek thinks she was duped. “Ever since you’re a kid, you are groomed to go to college,” she said. “If you don’t go, you won’t get the job to live in a nice place and raise a family.” But now that she’s trying to repay nearly $100,000 in college loans, she tells people that college isn’t always a good idea. “It’s not worth it,” Misiaszek, 27, said from her grandparents’ home in Wilbraham. http://tinyurl.com/77ognj

BEST SITE OF THE DAY:
Government figures show that of students who entered four-year colleges in 1997, just 54% had earned a degree six years later. A professor wrote about this issue in The Atlantic earlier this year, arguing that it's immoral to tell all students they can go to college, then crush their dreams by failing half of them. But the problem has deeper effects than hurt feelings: the 54% graduation rate means that around 46% of all money used to finance college tuition results in no degree. Which means that financially speaking, the spectacularly high dropout rate boils down to a spectacularly bad investment.

OVERTAXED NEW YORKERS LEAVE FOR ATLANTA, 8 YEAR OLD DENIED DIVORCE, FAMOUS PEOPLE AND THEIR CATS, ENEMA BAG JEWELRY, BECOME BATMAN

Mementos of the 1960's, the cast of an era. And a defense, kind of, of Jane Fonda
It's a taxing tale of two cities.

But when the family moved to Atlanta, Merritt and his wife found they were living far better on about the same income.

Surf W/ Stunning RIAA Reversal
BLAGOJEVICH AT CHICAGO GAY RIGHTS PARADE, BETTIE PAGE GALLERY, SAME SEX MARRIAGE IN CALI MAY BE VOIDED, HOW CONDOMS ARE MADE, IS SANTA CLAUS A HIPPIE?
In a stunning turn of events, the US music industry has ceased its long-time litigation strategy of suing individual P2P file-swappers. Instead, with New York Attorney General Andrew Cuomo acting as a broker, the RIAA has signed voluntary "graduated response" agreements with major Internet service providers. Those currently on the receiving end of an RIAA lawsuit, though, will have to see it through to the (very) bitter end.

The movie VALKYRIE does look good, but actually there were LOT'S of attempts on Hitler's life, before he got into government up until Speer decided to try and kill him in the bunker. This documentary series from the BBC chronicles over 200 attempts!
The Chinese man in charge of a huge amount of the nations money speaks about the current financial crisis: he says no one in government is telling the people the truth, and that we should be nice to countries that loan us money
Surfer Crowe sends us the astonishing story of the vice trial of the century. It turns out, the cops busted 100 women and held them, telling them that if they didn't testify, they'd be given 7 years! A dark side of the trial never told before:
In 1936, the New York trial of "Vice Czar" Lucky Luciano, for the crime of compulsory prostitution, resulted in his conviction. Luciano was the banner name for a trial that also included many co-defendants. This book addresses the other side of the Luciano trial, the story of the low-level street people who were brought into the trial to act as material witnesses. While Luciano's fabled conviction and later, pardon and deportation is remembered, little has been done to tell the story of the material witnesses and co-defendants. This book tells their story.

Surfer Richard Crowe sends us this note with the link, "Tadh (Tim) Crowe, one of the ambushers, was my cousin":
On the very day that Ireland was asserting its right to govern itself in the Mansion House, Dublin, 80 years ago, an IRA attack, though unconnected, was to have as profound an effect on the course of Irish history.
