Friday Cat Blogging: Save the Twelve Bucks Edition
Posted by Jill | 8:49 PM
Look, I like a brooding, sensitive type as much as the next somewhat neurotic female. But there is ABSOLUTELY NOTHING about the Twilight movies that appeals to me. If you're like me, you'll be happy then to be able to go through the entire story in five minutes here...in lolcat form.

Best. Web. Job. Ever.*
Posted by Jill | 10:00 PM
I Can Has Cheezburger is hiring.

*Either it's the best web job ever, or by the end of the week you'll be as revolted by LOL kittehs as a Baskin-Robbins employee is at the thought of ice cream by the end of Fourth of July weekend.

Air America hitting the Rhodes?
Posted by Jill | 7:01 AM
TRex is reporting (via Green960) that Randi Rhodes has been fired. Nothing from Air America yet, but that's what we hear.

If that's the case, I have just one thing to say:



UPDATE: Press release from Air America. Yeah. "Exciting new talent." Last time they used that line they replaced Sam Seder with "Lionel". I'm not kidding, AAR....you give Sam that PM drive time slot or refund my premium subscription money.

ANOTHER UPDATE: Wow...would that every unemployed person in America who was shafted by an employer could land someplace else that quickly.

Press release from NovaM Radio:

The Nova M Radio Network is thrilled to announce the addition of “The Randi Rhodes Show” to its nationally syndicated talent offerings beginning this Monday, April 14, 2008.

Randi Rhodes is the #1 rated progressive talk radio host in the nation.

Nova M CEO John Manzo says, “I just can’t stop smiling - Randi is simply the biggest and the best. Randi Rhodes and Mike Malloy under one roof – talk about TALENT!”

Randi Rhodes adds, “With Manzo at helm of Nova M, I am truly going to work for the best of the best. He is radio elite…and I am too . I’m home, I’m home, I’m home!”

“The Randi Rhodes Show” will air live Mon-Fri from 3-6pm Eastern on The Nova M Radio Network.


I finally joined NovaM as a founding member this morning. At least they're trying.

Best New Flavor
Posted by Jill | 9:36 PM
Every now and then a product comes along that's so perfect, so fabulously conceived, so wonderfully zany that it seems like destiny. Usually such products are only purveyed at Trader Joe's (like reduced guilt french onion pita chips) or Vermont Country Store (Tired Old Ass Soak), or concocted in whatever bong-den Ben and Jerry use to come up with their flavors like Phish Food, or the regretfully nonexistent Yes, Pecan, or the best one ever -- a Slovenian brand of bottled iced tea called -- no I am not kidding, I used to have a bottle of this stuff brought to me by a Slovenian friend -- Tea-tanic, and yes, it did have a picture of the sinking White Star liner on the label. But this one happens to already be carried at my own local A&P, and even though I have largely sworn off soda, this could tempt me to succumb every now and then:



Want YOUR lolkitteh to be a Soda Star? Jones Soda is having a contest to find the perfect lolcat. More information and contest rules here.
