Time to get back into college football, and to verify that neither the Penn State mascot nor the USC cheerleaders have changed their uniforms in at least forty years. (Click on the images for more detail.)
Elizabeth Taylor - The Last Hollywood Star
Elizabeth Taylor, 77, made a rare public appearance at Michael Jackson's burial yesterday.
Seeing her for the first time in a long time reminded me that she is really the last of the classic Hollywood stars.

Internet Manners
“The velocity and volume on the Web are so great that nothing is forgotten and nothing is remembered, like closing time at a blue-collar bar in Boston.
"Everyone’s drunk and ugly and they’re going to pass out in a few minutes.”
(Leon Wieseltier, literary editor of The New Republic, on the toxic state of online manners)

The Lust Map And "True Blood"
Geographers from Kansas State University have created a map of the spatial distribution of the Seven Deadly Sins across the United States.
This map highlights the concentration of lust.
It's no wonder that Louisiana was chosen as the setting for "True Blood."

Across The Universe Redux
We watched "Across The Universe" again last night.
You should, too, particularly as an antidote to all of the "Remember Woodstock" crap that's being foisted on us right now.
This is a beautiful, impressionistic, accurate depiction of the times.

I Never Knew Minnie Mouse Had Breasts
August 11, 2009
ORLANDO, Fla. --A 60-year-old man has been convicted of groping a woman in a Minnie Mouse costume at Walt Disney World.
John William Moyer of Cressona, Pa., told the judge he is innocent. His son said before sentencing that his father would never inappropriately touch a woman.
He was convicted Tuesday of misdemeanor battery and sentenced to write the victim an apology, serve 180 days probation and complete 50 hours of community service. Moyer must also pay $1,000 in court costs and possibly undergo a mental evaluation.
The victim says she had to do everything possible to keep Moyer's hands off her breasts.
