NBC's West Wing was canceled by the network Sunday after
seven years on the prime time schedule. Martin Sheen knew in
advance but was able to be tight-lipped about it. He's the only
member of the Sheen family who can breathe through his nose.
Howard Stern was ordered to clean up his act by Sirius
executives in a memo Monday. Some listeners are upset about Howard
getting lesbians to have sex live on his show. There's a place for
that kind of thing and that place is a cowboy movie.
Harry Belafonte likened Homeland Security to the Gestapo
Friday a week after he called President Bush a terrorist. Words
have consequences. Harry Belafonte could be banned from New
Orleans if the mayor orders a chocolate city without nuts.
Google refused a Justice Department request last week to
hand over all its searches for a pornography investigation. It's
easy to stumble onto pornography by accident. Everybody who's
running for governor of California is required to submit a reel of
their work.
John Kerry refused to tell ABC News Sunday whether he will
run for president again. He did say that both Richard Nixon and
Ronald Reagan needed two tries to get there. It's the broadest
hint of a Democrat's presidential ambition since Hillary Clinton
said she's committed to doing a good job for the people of New York.
Hillary Clinton urged health care reform at a pharmacy visit
in Rochester on Monday. Seniors agree that the new drug law is a
bureaucratic nightmare. Supermarkets are now required to stock
chicken soup on the top shelf of Aisle Six Hundred-B. The USS Winston Churchill intercepted a pirate ship off the coast of Somalia Sunday and detained the pirates. The suspects roam the seas robbing ships and assaulting women. Every time the Minnesota Vikings go on a cruise it causes trouble.
