Charles Out of Charge
|
When you consider that actor Scott Baio's career is not exactly at its best, you have to wonder what prompted him to do something recently to send his professional future even deeper in the toilet.
The former sitcom star got scads of negative responses when he reportedly insulted America's First Lady Michelle Obama on the highly trafficked Twitter. Baio
decided to put up a not-so-complimentary pic of Mrs. Obama with a snide remark to make matters even worst. The dedicated Republican probably thought that what's left of his fan would share his humor.
He was mistaken. Instead of agreeing with him, a number of Tweeters went ballistic and took time to let him know of their dissatisfaction. Despite his efforts to convince them that he was just joking around, Baio still received threats so frightening that he told the FBI.
Hey, Scotty, babe, if you want to get your thimble full of remaining fans to love you instead of stalk you, perhaps you ought to pick on somebody with less popularity than you next time around.

Come Out, Come Out, Wherever You Are!

Once again, the media claims to have discovered the whereabouts of golf champ and serial womanizer Tiger Woods. Since his late 2009 car crash fiasco, which resulted in scads of bimbettes coming out to reveal he cheated on wife Elin with them, Woods has disappeared from public view. Folks have declared him being seen in dozens of locations, but with no proof he's actually been to any of those places.
Now, a tabloid has released a grainy photo they allege is the Tiger walking outside a Mississippi clinic where he is supposedly being treated for sexual addiction. Since the facility in question will neither confirm or deny whether or not he's there, we are still put in limbo about where the tee-off prince is.
Here's the deal. Regardless of whether he is genuinely addicted or just a plain old sleaze, he cannot go on indefinitely avoiding the public. This is a person who pushed his phony, "perfect" image on us via commercial endorsements and made huge bucks, so, he sort of owes us some honesty.
Let's hope that he will soon come out of hiding, make a stab at reconciling with his wife, then give a few humble " I'm sorry I was such a dawg" interviews on some talk shows and get back into the "swing" of things.
Tiger, golf is a bore without you, man! |

Foul!
|
Who among us wouldn't love to work at a job we loved that paid us scads of money as well?
That's what most pro athletes get to do, play sports plus get millions of bucks to do it. Why, then, do they seem to continually sabotage themselves by committing asinine deeds that get them into deep doo-doo?
A prime example of this is Washington Wizards players Gilbert Arenas and Javaris Crittenton. They recently made headlines for allegedly pulling guns on each other in the team's locker room. Although rumors prevail that it was over a supposed gambling debt, Arenas has claimed that he did it as a jest and was, at first, unremorseful.
The head honchos of the Wizards and the authorities evidently don't "get" his humor, however. As of this writing, he has been indefinitely suspended by the NBA and it looks like there is a strong possibility he may be arrested. Not only will he probably have to forfeit a contract that might have netted him $111 million, but he may end up spending time in the Big House.
While Arenas claims he kept a gun in the locker room for "protection", it's a lame explanation. Who was he protecting himself from in a locker room, the towel boy?
What an idiot! |

DON'T BREAK THESE!
|
A brand new year often brings a whole new set of laws we are expected to adhere to.
Wondering if you are going to be affected?
Some of the new laws now on the books include:
...No selling toy guns in retail stores if they resemble the genuine article in Arkansas, so forget about buying little Throckmorton that .357 Magnum look-alike he had his little heart set on.
...No more dog racing in Massachusetts. However, watching Harvard Law School students sprint to their next class is still legal, you'll be happy to know.
...A ban on smoking in restaurants and bars in North Carolina is now law. Somewhat ironic, since this state is a world leader in the tobacco industry. If they really wanted to protect people from the dangers of smoking, why don't they just stop making cigarettes?
...California restaurants that cook and serve foods containing any trans fats will now find themselves in big trouble. After all, the state has to make certain that all of its citizens stay unrealistically thin and beautiful.
...Illinois, New Hampshire and Oregon have now prohibited texting while driving, joining 16 other states in the ban. Chances that the diehard bimbettes who are most notorious for texting while behind the wheel of a vehicle will cooperate? Let's just say that law enforcement officials have their work cut out for them. |

FISHING FOR TROUBLE
|
Reality show fans, prepare yourself to be disillusioned once again.
If you are a faithful watcher of A&E's " The Deadliest Catch," you know that its charms are largely founded on the perception that the participants are honest, hard-working, macho crab fishermenputting their lives on the line to earn money.
Apparently, not all individuals who have been featured on this highly popular show may have been as honorable as we assumed. In the case of Joshua Warner, a 23-year-old dude who appeared as a new deckhand on the Alaskan ship The Wizard, crab fishing was allegedly not his only source of income.
According to authorities in Oregon, the strapping, tattooed lad may also have been involved in at least 3 bank heists in 2007 and 2009. Maybe this is not really so shocking, since, during his days on The Wizard, Warner was often uncooperative and difficult.
You have to wonder about the intelligence of a guy who goes on a t.v. show broadcast around the world, meaning that the chances of him being seen and identified by people who saw him allegedly knock over a bank were pretty high.
Obviously, he is not the sharpest knife in the drawer.
As of this writing, his whereabouts are a mystery. |

Farewell to Soaps?
|
Just months after CBS took longtime soap opera The Guiding Light off the air, it has announced that it will also be axing another of its soaps- As the World Turns.
This one ran for 54 years, but it is scheduled to be bounced in September 2010.
This seems to be a growing trend as television networks short on budgets are beginning to eliminate anything that lacks enough ratings to justify spending money. There have been whispers that ABC may also be considering taking their soap One Life to Live off and those actors fortunate enough to still have their soap on the air have had to take drastic cuts in salary.
There was a time when soap operas were huge with stay-at-home housewives who watched them faithfully to help make their busy days more bearable. They even became popular with college students who gathered together to watch them in between afternoon class breaks.
Times changed, though, and the soaps had to suddenly start competing with more women going into the workforce who didn't have time to watch, the internet, cable television, talk shows and reality television, all which drew away viewers. Of course, the fact that some of the storylines in many of these soaps have gotten pretty absurd hasn't helped much either. Sadly, they seem to be losing the interest of the public at large.
Enjoy the few ones that are left, 'cause chances are that this television genre may be about to go the way of the dinosaur.

She Finally Had Enough
|
According to published reports, South Carolina governor Mark Sanford's marriage is over, as his fed-up spouse Jenny finally decided to end the travesty.
You may recall that Sanford gained notoriety earlier this year for lying to his staff about going on a hiking trip when he, in fact, flew off to Argentina to spend some "quality time" with his mistress. He had no choice except to admit it when news of sighting him in an airport was leaked to the press.
Since that time, Sanford's life has been a whirlwind of controversy, as he was accused of abusing his powers, being derelict of his duties as governor and more.
Nobody blamed wife Jenny for deciding to move out of the state's "first mansion" with their four kids, but many were surprised that she didn't just dump the guy totally. Instead, she allegedly made many attempts to get reconciled with her hubby, even knowing that this was not his first time as a cheater.
It has now been six months since the story of Mark Sanford's infidelity broke and, although he has managed to avoid being impeached, his wife is ready to move forward with her life. She has written a book, done an interview with Barbara Walters and is determined not to be bitter about the whole matter.
Hm, wonder if the Tiger Woods thing might have inspired her to finally move on? |
