I, for one, am jealous of Jon and Ryan - I wish I could have a weekend holiday, but unfortunately I'm working today (Saturday) from 4 - 7. Hence, I'm going to applaud Jon's heroism in stopping WOWAY from becoming a smoking crater of hypocrisy and home to a totalitarian regime. Bravo, good sir!

I wish we could give him a lifetime achievement, but you'll have to settle on a specific post to nominate.

Here's a good one from Fred Huggins:
Try asking for a Chris Brown album, he's a great influence. Or an R. Kelly album. Or a Toby Keith album. Really, any musician who does drugs, abuses women and/or glorifies war.

Then tell her you played some of HER favorite albums (Celine Dion?) backwards and heard a message telling you to quit school and devote your life to making crackpipes "good enough for the dark lord satan himself."

Al messes around with the music we've all been forcefed, thus encouraging you to think creatively, joke around, and question the status quo. THAT'S why your mother doesn't like him, because he undermines her thought-policing authority. This may seem harsh, but I feel very strongly about this - your mother is not a jerk, she is a fascist control freak, there's a difference. She sees you not as a human being with thoughts and opinions of your own, but rather an investment to be molded to her tastes. SHE IS ONLY PRETENDING TO LOVE YOU. Always remember that.

I admit I don't know the woman, but that's the only reason I can possibly imagine. Either that, or she's saving it as a Christmas gift and using THE WORST COVER EVER.

Patti, that FredHuggins post was great, but is ineligible as it was written after the November 15, 2009, deadline.

I was afraid of that. Ah, well. I am sure there are other gems.

Here is one of those gems now:
For those who feel like getting upset over missing Al on CNN.com, and there being no archive...I assure you, you missed NOTHING. Al's statement "they're out of news" was extremely accurate in more ways than one. The smiling blue-eyed pile of clothing in the rectangle next to Al's asked the same bloody stock questions about Michael, Madonna and Kurt, then asked perhaps the stupidest question of all time: "Are you Weird Al AT HOME too?" Al looked like he was in physical pain at having to dignify that collection of grunts with a "No." Even for the "professional journalist/part-time foot model" standard this woman is expected to perform at, that was stupid. Say what you will about Kevin Pollak, but at least thanks to him I LEARNED a few things about Al.

You missed NOTHING.
just to reiterate, this post is from Fred Huggins. I think it's Post of the Year material.
