Lefty or a Righty?

It's that time of year again, The 4th Annual Masturbate-A-Thon up in Toronto.

Guys do it, nice girls do it so say it out loud: Masturbation. Come As You Are encourages everyone to touch themselves for a good cause. The fourth annual Masturbate-A-Thon is a weekend of solo sex to raise funds for women's health organizations. Ask your friends and neighbours to sponsor you for every minute of masturbation during May 18-19. The event is held on the honour system and you decide how long you want to masturbate in the privacy of your own home. This year's charity is the Hassle Free Women's Clinic.
An entire weekend is devoted to staying in your house and do some handywork for a good cause. It's a win-win for Catholic priests in Canada. The flaw in this event is that it's based on the honor system. I can imagine these people telling their neighbors and friends: "I jerked it 30 times this weekend, happy all that training is paying off." But, can we trust anyone that's asking for money to spank it alone all weekend?

Blue's Clues

Anyone with a child knows what an annoying show Blue's Clues is. I always thought the host was kind of creepy. Well he's gone and they found a new guy to take over. Read the exciting behind the scenes article. What a struggle it must be having to act against a blue screen and pretending to be talking to a blue dog while at the same time entertaining your 2-4 year old audience. I have a lot of respect for the new guy.You're probably wondering what Steve (the old host) is up to now. Well click on over to his little corner of cyberspace and listen to tracks off the record he's making called "songs for dust mites". This is what talking to a blue dog against a blue screen for 6 years will do to you. I think I'm starting to lose some respect for the old guy.

SIDS

This is very sad, very sobering.Chase Cringely

" Chase Cringely sounds like the name of a NASCAR driver. Chase Cringely was my son. He died this week after 74 days of life, a victim of Sudden Infant Death Syndrome (SIDS). He literally stopped breathing lying in my lap while I did e-mail. There was no sound, no struggle. I just looked down and he was no longer alive. I have no idea whether he had been dead for one minute or 10, but we were unable to revive him. He was never sick, he just died, and now there is a void in our lives that we can never fill. "

Blake arrested - Media bored.

As you probably know actor Robert Blake was arrested in connection with the killing of his wife.Is this newsworthy? Definitely. But do we need to watch Live on TV the police car driving to the police station? Come on. Why is the media trying to turn this into O.J. all over again?? What a joke.Aaron Brown (on NewsNight w/ Aaron Brown) couldn't get over the flashbacks he was having to the O.J. chase watching the white unmarked police car drive on the expressway. He couldn't help repeatedly comparing it - poorly - to the O.J chase. There's a lot more going on in the world to waste time on this story.Is the media bored with the abundance of international news? Terrorists got you down? Well, we've got a Hollywood scandal for you. Aren't we smarter than this? I think so, I turned off the TV.
