The Editorial Board is no stranger to household pests — if the rats living in our ceiling aren’t bad enough, we’ve recently developed an ant problem that won’t go away no matter how many ant bombs we put around the office.
One thought for why Pete Carroll is bolting for the Seattle Seahawks is because USC is about to be hit with sanctions.
“I have never seen outright hatred for a president like I have seen with Obama,” is a quote from Paul Murty’s guest column on Friday. I would like to disagree. First off, the only president our generation can compare President Obama to is President Bush
I found a chart online recently consisting of two pictures. The top picture had a map of the United States with states highlighted where gay marriage was legal: Massachusetts, Connecticut, Iowa, Vermont and New Hampshire. Pretty simple picture — five states. The picture below it was the same map but with a lot of states colored. That one? States where it’s legal to marry your first cousin.
Remember that YouTube video starring the overly concerned Britney Spears fan begging the American public to just leave the pop princess alone?
It was a banner week for bipartisan tomfoolery, culminating on Friday and coming from both Republican National Committee chair Michael Steele and Democratic strategist James Carville.

John Walsh Needs to Keep His Mouth Shut. It’s not that his crime-fighting endeavor “America’s Most Wanted” hasn’t proven to be successful — it has, most recently with the capture of Jupiter massacre suspect Paul Mehinge — but rather that he, in his position of influence as a popular television host, should stop trying to be judge, jury and executioner, as he did recently when he called for capital punishment for the above suspect.
An undefeated season and the chance to win a second BCS National Championship in the last five seasons gives Texas a lot to play for today.
The question is, nearly a decade later, is it still too soon for 9/11 references?
The end of a decade is naturally a time for reflection, and the end of this decade has inspired overwhelmingly bad reviews from everyone who has taken the time to ponder the last ten years of depressing suckitude.
It’s almost that time again. That time when no one is safe from the mass of blue, orange and red fliers.
