I watched some of the Chris Rock HBO special the other night, and of course politics were the main topic for the opening. Much of it was funny and on point, but one specific joke really stood out to me. He described what Sarah Palin looks like in the photo of her standing victorious over [...]
Want a nice pair of boots this fall, but can’t afford the hundred bucks or more most boots require? Target has some fantastic styles that won’t break the bank. Heck, you can get all three pairs and you still won’t spend over a hundred bucks. Now that’s a great deal for those on a shoe [...]

Let me guess – they offer cheese burgers, pizza and other crap without a single piece of greenery in sight – well, maybe some anemic looking iceburg lettuce on a sandwich.
