    Normally, I'd argue that shouldn't be a factor, but Lita does look older than her 30 years.

    Too bad she doesn't act like it.

     

    I'm sorry, that was unfair, given that the general tendency of people in the wrestling business to resort to juvenile behavior, singling her out was uncalled for. True, but uncalled for.

     

    (I suspect the reason Batista got over so big earlier this year is because he was, at the time, the only worker on the roster who acted like a mature adult. Something that was proptly flushed once he began doing backstage skits with Eric Bischoff.)

    I'm just wondering what is up with DCAU Supergirl wearing an outfit like Movie Supergirl in that "Upcoming Episode Preview Shot" thing they do during the credits.

     

    Anyone have a screencap of that?

    Its not the "Supergirl" movie costume, but the midrift-baring one she currently wears in the comics.

     

     

     

    Also, what was up with the "you didn't miss my dress last night line"? Surely they weren't implying...

    Given the build-up, I found "The Daily Show" this week to be a little disappointing. I enjoyed the Evolution stories, but I don't understand why a show devoted to that controversy requires an interview with Gweneth Paltrow about her new movie. In short, I wish they'd stuck to just stuff about evolution and left the irrelevant celebrity interviews out of it.

    "Pull his troops out of occupied New Orleans"? I thought people were supposed to be mad at him for not sending them there fast enough. And as much as I agree invading Iraq was a mistake, a sudden pull-out would make the sacrifice of all the Americans who died there meaningless. Pulling out now will rip whatever silver lining the cloud of the Iraq War might have had.

    “So many of the people here . . . were underprivileged anyway, so this is working very well for them.” - Barbra Bush on refugees at the Astrodome

     

    Wait a second...

     

     

    Um...

     

     

    ...What????

    Barbara Bush, who accompanied the former presidents on a tour of the Astrodome complex Monday, said the relocation to Houston is "working very well" for some of the poor people forced out of New Orleans.

     

    "What I'm hearing, which is sort of scary, is they all want to stay in Texas. Everyone is so overwhelmed by the hospitality," she said during a radio interview with the American Public Media program "Marketplace." "And so many of the people in the arena here, you know, were underprivileged anyway, so this is working very well for them."

     

    You just can't make stuff up this funny.

    After Kanye West got on the stick at the NBC telethon, and then I heard that Rehnquist died, my first thought was, "Fuck. Chief Justice Thomas."

    Interesting point, but I think the President probably believes that having two consecutive African-American Secretaries of State insulates him from any and all criticism on the issue of race.

    Bush isn't the only one who thinks that.

     

    Appointing an African-American to a prominent position is the political equivalent of saying "some of my best friends are black".

    But he's giving the jobs to two very qualified individuals in Powell and Rice.

    Appointing Powell and Rice has nothing to do with how his policies effect the other 37 million black people living in the U.S.

     

    They happen to be two very qualified individuals, but appointing them does not insulate Bush from any and all criticism of his policies as they pertain to African-Americans.

    I don't nescessarily disagree with WWE pushing guys like Conway and Masters, even if they don't get heat, the bottom line is, at least they're pushign new and different talent. The first step is establishing guys legitimacy in the ring by giving them wins, you can work on the crowd reaction later.

    The sad part is that Conway is actually a talented worker, but they keep sticking him with poorly conceived gimmicks that hurt any credibility his talent might gain him. He is the new Val Venis.

    Will they really job HBK out to Masters? The certainly seem determined to get Masters over no matter what, but given the zero heat he is getting they'd be smart to declare it a lost cause. I suspect, though, that there will be some form of interference to keep both men looking strong going into their inevitable PPV match.

    He's definitely a one-trick pony in the ring.

     

    Can someone please sell me on Cena and list some positives and reasons to like him? Whats his upside?

    He can cut excellent promos when he's not preoccupied with pandering to the crowd, over-using his catchphrases, or relying on homophobic plays on words.

    I just described his entire gimmick, didn't I?
