In the News Today

Miss USA, also known as Tara Conner, almost had to give up her crown for "partying too hard." CNN's words, not mine. But luckily, Donald Trump came to the rescue and decided to give her a second chance after a way over-publicized press conference where she cried a lot. I love how even the anchors on CNN thought this was stupid.

In other news, Joseph Barbera, of Hanna-Barbera (you know, the Flintstones, Jetsons, and all those excellent cartoons), passed away today at the age of 95. He will surely be missed.
