What’s your favorite “leftover” meal? Somewhere between Shepherd’s Pie and Pasta Puttanesca, there’s Deceiver Stew.
Our “tips” in-box runneth over, and we haven’t yet mastered the intracies of the 25-hour day. So here’s a sampling of what’s been sitting in our e-mail Tupperware, gathering silicon dust:
- In September 2006, Virgin boss Richard Branson pledged €1.9 billion to combat global warming. But now it turns out the money is going to fund “Virgin Fuel,” a for-profit company about which we’re all supposed to feel warm and fuzzy.
- LPGA golfer Annika Sorenstam got her undies in a bunch when Michelle Wie skipped a women’s “major” tour event to play a PGA tournament with the men. “”I really don’t know why Michelle continues to do this,” said Annika — forgetting that she did the exact same thing two years ago.
- Pamela Anderson says her new hotel in the United Arab Emirates will be “built with no fossil fuel at all in Abu Dhabi where they have all that oil.” Technically, she’s not a hypocrite yet, but COME ON! Can you even smelt a steel I-bar or make a brick without fossil fuel?
- U.S. Congressman Pete Sessions, you may remember, was livid when Janet Jackson and Justin Timberlake supposedly forced “their liberal values upon the rest of the country” during their infamous 2004 Super Bowl halftime “wardrobe malfunction.” But now he’s raising political donations at a Las Vegas strip burlesque club.
- Discovery’s new “Planet Green” cable network is all about saving the Earth – except for the advertisers, of course.
Whew! And nary a word about the Breck Girl.
Discuss.

I pledge to fart 20% less.
I pledge to recycle (Just like I do for the last decade).
I pledge to b__tch slap Pamela Anderson when given the opportunity and stuff a dirty diaper filled with the poo of 2 year old who just finished his first serving of Gerber’s Chicken Enchilada baby food down her pie hole so none of ever hear her speak.
Pamela is a hypocrite – she has no idea that the big yellow thingy with the word CATERPILLAR on all four sides is called an excavator and it requires diesel fuel to move the dirt. You can’t make steel without coal, you can’t make glass without lots of heat (think coal or natural gas), and you can’t efficiently cut some sexy brazilian slate stone without a high speed abrasive saw (think gasoline or electricity).
I pledge to interject the term “bull__it” any time I hear the words “green,” “green building,” “green living,” or “green lifestyle.”
Mr. Sleepyhead has had his fill of celebrities and pompous a__es today.
Pamela Anderson has a hotel? My, what fake boobs, dyed locks and an exaggerated sense of self can lead to in this world. But no really I’m glad the hotel is green, since it’s in Abu Dhabi and every one who stays there will have flown in and then fly out. Have to offset that carbon somehow.
I have an exaggerated sense of self. Where’s MY hotel?
So, what *did* the Breck Girl do??? You brought her up, now I wanna know. Has to be more interesting than ol’ Pammy.
Breck Girl is a nickname for John Edwards, owing to his penchant for expensive pretty-boy haircuts.
he pays a lot for his haircut? seriously? omg. hahaha
“Breck Girl is a nickname for John Edwards, owing to his penchant for expensive pretty-boy haircuts.”
Sorry, I did know that. And now that you reminded me, I do know what ‘she’ did.
Pastafarian: Describe your hotel plans?
I think KFC should creat an ad campaign making a comparison between Pamela Anderson’s breasts and the Colonel’s. Something simple like:
“Ours are real”, signed, The Colonel.
My hotel plans? Like an upscale “Porky’s”. Yeah my pop culture references stop at 1983. What can I say everything from then, ’til yesterday is a blank.
When Annika Sorenstam went to the PGA tournament she was already a well established figure in women’s golf. In fact, i think she was number 1 in the world. Nothing left to prove.
Michelle Wie? She hasn’t won a single professional title, in the LPGA or otherwise.
Not one.
Pastafarian: “Yeah my pop culture references stop at 1983″
Nothing to be ashamed of! I think mine pan out around ’89 – not too much past the movie “Heathers.”
In fact, I love making references that the kiddies at work don’t understand because they don’t remember. Because they weren’t alive yet. Referring back to “Better Off Dead” or similar = my favorite kind of recycling (though I do do the trash-related kind, too).
tim dearinger:
Love the slogan. Too bad “Mad Men” is just a show.
@ madne0
Annika had something to prove, that she could play with the men. Michelle doesn’t need to play with the women before she decides she wants to play with the men. There isn’t a ladder of requirements she has to go through.
Hmm you seem pretty clueless about the Annika stuff.
The reason she reacted was that she was the host for that competition and Wie had pledged to come and then feigned injury only to play in the mens tournament afterwards…
To be fair brick can be sun dried and such bricks have more than stood the test of time. So, as long as none of the trucks hauling straw, clay, water and finally the bricks themselves use gas or diesel she’s good on that one.
Up until you try to get a crane (to raise the bricks to the workers) to run on biodiesel, in Dubai…
Maybe she’s planning on a one story adobe hotel?
