    Posted: May 7th, 2012 - 5:53pm

    Maybe he shouldn’t have played with a temperature of 102F.

    Posted: April 9th, 2012 - 5:12pm

    Witticisms like that have endeared fans of celebrity chef Anthony Bourdain, but barf and diarrhea is no fun, especially for kids. Bourdain’s good with a quip, as he showed last night on The Daily Show, but still comes across like Hunter S. Thompson-lite.

  • Julia Roberts covered in bird poop

    Posted: April 3rd, 2012 - 1:50pm

    I do not like the actress Julia Roberts. Her movies suck, and she wasted a marriage to real talent, Lyle Lovett, back in the 1990s (but it did help Lyle create great art). Julia now says it was "torture" being covered in bird poo for her latest role in Mirror Mirror. “All that 'beauty' stuff was so disgusting.”

The ingredients of public outrage over pink slime melded like a savory stew last night on the Daily Show to produce a potpourri of insights on how not to chat with people who eat. And it was so easy because the politicians and industry seem so hapless.

    I’ve been around parents and little kids for 30 years and had endless discussions about home-birth, breastfeeding, nutrition, and the consistency of baby poop. Bird feeding hasn’t come up. But you may after watching this video.

  • Tennis and hockey and barf

    Posted: March 13th, 2012 - 6:54pm

    An outbreak of illness might have more to do with the final results than the actual tennis at the BNP Paribas Open tournament in Indian Wells, California, which is about to move into its second week.
