She tried to go to the Grammys, but they said no, no, no

Amy Winehouse will not be going to the Grammys (the British government would not give her a visa), but will perform via sattelite.

What the hell is she going to sing? Maybe she should perform a cover of Alanis Morissette's "Ironic".

OK, cheap shot, I know.

I like Amy Winehouse's CD, "Back to Black", but her song, "Rehab", is nominated for 4 Grammys. We all know the lyrics: "They tried to make me go to rehab/I said no, no, no". So, since she's in rehab now (doing well, according to her publicists), wouldn't it be hypocritical of her to sing that song?

What's a pop singer/tabloid target to do?

Would it be less ironic if she sang "You Know I'm No Good" at the Grammys?

giving humor a bad name

Why is it that when someone in politics - or just in the public eye - says something offensive, they back peddle and claim they were trying to tell a joke or be funny? Read the following article from Politico.com and you tell me, was the comment by Michael Barone of U.S. News and World Report funny in any way at all: Barone: Media wanted Palin abortion By MIKE ALLEN & ANDY BARR | 11/11/08 5:58 PM EST A roomful of academics erupted in angry boos Tuesday morning after political analyst Michael Barone said journalists trashed Alaska Gov. Sarah Palin, the Republicans' vice presidential nominee, because "she did not abort her Down syndrome baby." Barone said in an e-mail that he "was attempting to be humorous and ... went over the line." Barone was speaking at the Palmer House Hilton in Chicago, to the 121st annual meeting of the National Association of State Universities and Land Grant Colleges, which calls itself the nation’s oldest higher-education associatio...

'Tis the season to be voting

I haven't enjoyed a primary season like this one in SUCH a long time! First, I'll say, I haven't paid as much attention to primaries in the past as I have this one, but damn, I sure picked a good one. So, Clinton and Obama are in a dead heat (always thought that was a weird phrase). OK. I'm an Obama supporter, but if Clinton gets the nomination, I'm fine with that. If all of the Democratic contestants were still in the race, she wouldn't be my second choice either. However, if it's her, I can deal. I'd like to see how a female president would work. I think, very well. I do feel - though - that we need a real change in this country. The idea of Bush - Clinton - Bush - Clinton is not appealing to me at all. Yes, things were going well in the 90s, but that's so last millennium. Enough of the past. I think we need a real change, or - to paraphrase Monty Python - we need something completely different. I think that's Barack Obama. As much ...
