The second installment of new products that catch my eye is devoted to only one item: the Black & Decker Automatic Jar Opener. Is this a sign that the U.S.’s obesity battle won’t be won anytime soon? If some are too lazy to open a jar I doubt they’ll be willing to take a walk […]
There will be a second-annual TAM Weblog Awards this year. It’s only the opinion of one person. For something more democratic there are the 2004 Weblog Awards. The catagories TAM would have the best chance in (however slim) are the Best Conservative Blog and the appropriate Ecosystem level.

If TAM were to do a list of “most despicable people” O.J. Simpson earned his way onto it with his comments.

Expect a new TAM feature soon to help you out with your Christmas shopping. Think Oprah’s Favorite Things except nobody’s getting anything for free (including me), and they’ll be things you can actually buy without requiring a billionaire’s bank account. I’m working out some of the details but I can’t resist not pointing out that […]
Steven Taylor is right about Dr. Dean running the DNC. Unfortunately for the Democrats he might just get the job by default.

Right now, Michele has one of the greatest pics ever gracing the top of her weblog. Her kid’s (I’m assuming) cooler than me since I only have a Packers hat and a couple jerseys from ex-Packers in my wardrobe.

Credit has to be given to David Stern for his tough response to the Motown Melee. Suspending Ron Artest for the season was a no-brainer for me, but I wasn’t sure the NBA understood the seriousness of Friday’s fight. I’m happy to say they knew a poor reaction to this black eye could have been […]
A bunch of people who get paid to talk about retail said pretty much the same stuff I did about the death of Kmart. But you got it from me two days sooner.

If you missed the Motown Melee Friday night you couldn’t miss the replays on news networks and ESPN. (I gave up on the game at half time since Pacers were controlling the Pistons.) It started with Detroit’s Ben Wallace pushing Indiana’s Ron Artest. They pushed and shoved. Eventually Artest was lying down on a table […]
The reconfiguring of intelligence agencies failed to pass Congress today. Democratic leader Nancy Pelosi can blame this “failure” on Republicans who “control the House, the Senate, and the White House.” But let’s be serious. This was a lame duck Congress who only really needed to pass a spending bill and increase the debt ceiling. In […]
Besides his unique writing style, Tom Wolfe is a successful author because he knows how to promote his books. For weeks, he’s been quoted in newspapers and interviewed on television all in preparation for the release of I Am Charlotte Simmons. Ed Driscoll attended a talk in San Francisco and reports.

Madison radio yapper John “Sly” Sylvester’s racial insults to Condi Rice and Colin Powell have made national news.
While Mark Belling initially joked around about his uttering of a racial slur he eventually issued an apology. Sylvester won’t back down. Instead of apologizing to Rice he apologized to Aunt Jemima.
I ask that those individuals who […]
It’s a bummer liberal Al Hunt is leaving the Wall Street Journal. While more often than not I disagreed with his weekly column, he broke up the right-wing editorial page. Hopefully Paul Gigot realizes he page will be stronger and more interesting if there’s a regular Lefty writing. He should even go so far as […]
Another big business story hit us this week with Nike’s CEO and President Phil Knight announcing he’s stepping down and becoming Chairman of the Board. Replacing him will be William Perez. Perez was the CEO of Racine’s S.C. Johnson and a running maniac.
