The 82nd Annual Academy Awards Blah Blah
By far, the most interesting part of the 3 1/2 hour long Academy Awards show last night was Steve Martin and Alec Baldwin's short spoof of Paranormal Activity.
One may argue just as pointless as the actual film, sure, but much funnier.

President Announces New Undead Stimulus Package
WASHINGTON - Early this morning, President Obama announced his new "undead" stimulus package.
At a hastily called press conference conducted at midnight at the White House today, President Barak Obama announced another new trillion dollar stimulus package targeted, he said, “at a segment of the population grossly under served by government.” Flanked by Chief of Staff Rahm Emmanuel, Treasury Secretary Timothy Geithner, and a surprisingly robust, if pallid, Strom Thurmond, Mr. Obama laid out the details of the latest stimulus package.
In addition to the required multi-billion dollar payouts to large Wall Street interests such as Goldman Sachs and Merrill Lynch the latest round of stimulus spending carries generous allotments for traditional, blood-drinking, vampires. “This society can no longer turn a blind eye toward the poor, the downtrodden and the deceased,” Mr. Obama announced. “For too long this great nation has left vampires to fend for themselves. Well no longer.” Mr. Obama then laid out an Undead Recovery Stimulus Plan which includes increased funding for blood banks, an expansion of retirement benefits for undead senators and other federal officials, a permanent waiver on taxes for those over 130 years old, and a tax credit for new window shades and sunblock for the recently deceased.
House Approves Billionaire Stimulus Package
WASHINGTON - Today the House of Representatives approved the $20 billion stimulus plan for those worth more than $1 billion.
The plan, aimed to "give back... to those who have lost the most" in the recent economic downturn passed with little debate on a bipartisan vote. Meanwhile, the controversial $5 million "Food Stamp Reform" bill, aimed at providing a select group of low-income Americans with an average $13.50 increase in their food-stamp allowance, continued to draw fire from both sides of the aisle.
"Today we were able to help some Americans," said Representative Ron Smithe (D-New York), "but we need to walk cautiously on HR 6955 [The Food Stamp Reform Bill]. I'm glad my colleagues across the aisle agree for once. Now who wants ice cream?"
Sarah Palin's Subconscious Interview
The following is an unauthorized biographical interview I did with Sarah Palin's subconscious.
Me - Sarah, you recently forced Obama's advisor Rahm Emanuel to apologize for using the word "retarded," saying it was an insult to your son. Was that a publicity stunt or an attempt to re-write the English language?
Sarah - How dare you?
Me - It's easy.
Sarah - Okay then. No, I did it because it's heartbreaking.
Me - But the word "retarded" is an accepted word in the English language.
Sarah - It's an insult to my son.
Me - Would you also be against the use of the words, stupid, idiot, moron, cretin and numbskull?
Sarah - Yes.
Me - Because they're an insult to your son?
Sarah - No! They're an insult to me personally.
Me - Why did you say publicly you'd consider running for the president when you've already made the decision to run because you'd like to be the first woman president so bad you can taste it?
