A Great Day For Broadcasting And Logic
‘Wardrobe malfunction’ fine dismissed for CBS The three-judge panel of the 3rd U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals ruled that the Federal Communications Commission “acted arbitrarily and capriciously” in issuing the fine for the fleeting image of nudity. The court found that the FCC deviated from its nearly 30-year practice of fining indecent broadcast programming only …
How Did He Walk Home?
Man Loses Prosthetic Leg While Skydiving A skydiver in upstate New York is hoping someone will find his lost leg. Scott Listemann was skydiving above Gardiner, N.Y., June 14 when his prosthetic leg came off. He has printed up posters to distribute around Gardiner, asking anyone who finds his leg to call him.

What A Nutcase!

At least I hope they don’t, or I’ll have to be on high alert for the rest of my life! Threatening someone who …

Would You Like To Play Again? You Have Selected No.
If you really want to feel like an immense loser, play the Blind Date Game from RNIB! You can feel like a dork in flash, or HTML! Oh my god, there were only two choices of dudes: one who was an Elvis impersonater, and the other was a partially sighted computer geek. At least with …

They Do Say The Guilty Always Sleep, But Isn’t That Supposed To Be After They Get Caught?
When I first saw this story, I didn’t care about it, but upon closer inspection, I can’t stop laughing. I laughed so hard that Steve wondered what was so goddamn funny. Well, what do you think of the image of a couple of drunken fools breaking into a store, stealing a bunch of patio furniture, …
