If The Rastacap Fits
There may be things happening in the news, from the Olympics, to world events, to politics, whatever...the only important thing on everyone’s mind is Snoop Lion. The artist formerly known as Snoop Dogg, previously known as Snoop Doggy Dog, went to Jamaica and got him some religion. Yes it’s a religion that involves smoking copious amounts of cannabis, but it’s still a religion. So gone is the gangsta rapper Snoop Dog, and newly born is the reggae artist Snoop Lion.
Snoop Lion has released a single, and there is a documentary in the works about his spiritual and artistic rebirth. As to whether Snoop will be able to pull off the transition from rap to reggae, we predict him be bumbaclot, not irie, mon.
Gay Chicken
The Chik-Fil-A controversy rages on, with anti-gay marriage folks swarming to imbibe in some not-very-good chicken as a way to show their lack of support for equal rights for gay people in response to Mike Huckabee’s call for an “Appreciation Day.”
A counter-protest was held on Friday in which people were encouraged to go to a Chik-Fil-A location and kiss a person of the same sex. Meanwhile, a location in Torrence, California was graffito’d with the phrase “Tastes Like Hate.” The graffiti was quickly painted over, but not before images spread on the web inciting predictably vitriolic reactions from the right.

Harry Reid, who earlier this week made the rather bold and seemingly unfounded claim that Romney avoided paying taxes for 10 years.Romney is now in the difficult position of trying to refute these claims without releasing any more tax returns, which he earlier vowed he would not do.
A Question No One Asked?
Macauley Culkin is not on heroin. That’s what his handlers want everyone to know. Apparently there’s been some speculation about whether the former Home Alone kid is chasing the dragon, otherwise this kind of public denial would just seem bizarre. Which it kind of does, as neither we, nor anyone we know ever heard the heroin rumor in the first place.
Driver’s Revenge
And finally, a driver in Russia got some sloppy revenge on a driver who refused to let him pass. After a bit of back-and-forth that looks like it could go terribly wrong at any moment, the wronged driver makes his feelings known to the pass-blocker in a way that driver isn’t likely to forget. Especially since another driver captured it all on video.
