Say hello to Bachelor Number One.

Convicted serial killer won on 'Dating Game'

This story is disturbing in so many ways, from the fact that this guy had already raped an 8 yr old 10 years earlier, to the creepy introduction on the show - "Bachelor No. 1 is a successful photographer who got his start when his father found him in the dark room at the age of 13, fully developed" - to the fellow contestant who has somehow made this story all about him.

Weird, weird, weird.

Sammy Sosa is white now.

Former Cubs slugger Sammy Sosa denies suffering from skin condition that plagued Michael Jackson

You know what? People are weird.

Not a profound sentiment, no, but sometimes that's all I'm left with when I read about this kind of stuff.

People are weird.

It's no wonder Phil Spector wears a wig.

Sweet Jesus. I miss the Hair Bear Bunch days.

Excuse me while I throw up.

Mickey Rourke wrestles Victoria's Secret model 32 years his junior into submission.

I don't think that guy has washed his hair since 1992.

I'm thinking MSNBC's Locked Up could be a shoe-in, though.

Judge denies Rod Blagojevich's request to be allowed to appear on "I'm a Celebrity - Get Me Outta Here":

“It’s way too soon. I don't think this defendant in all honesty ... fully understands the position he finds himself in,’’ said U.S. District Judge James Zagel in denying the bid.

On the nosey, Judge! This guy has got to be the most deluded, self-aggrandizing person on the planet. He really has no clue.

Rock of Love gets its cast from the Free Clinic this year.

Sheila and I watched Rock of Love 3 last night and OH MY GOD. I have never witnessed such a group of skanky, repulsive and stupid women in my life!!! The depravity level was off the charts. What a freaking spectacle! You guys, one of the skanks (Nikki) actually did a shot from one of the other skanks’ (Gia) lady parts!! (Both have been sent packing already) I kid you not! And the man-made boobage on display is truly remarkable.

I cannot WAIT to watch it next week. Hee! (I had better take my penicillin before I do)

My mother was telling me about this last night.

Adult Women Play House With Fake Babies:

"What's so wonderful about Reborns is that, um, they're forever babies," said Moore, who has grown children and grandchildren. "There's no college tuition, no dirty diapers... just the good part of motherhood," she added.

In her Kansas City home, Moore even has an elaborate room for the dolls. She organizes birthday parties, bakes a cake and even invites guests.

That's not right. My God that is so NOT RIGHT.

Do you think this was a conscious choice?

"This undated image provided by the Michigan attorney-general's office shows Daniel Allen Everett. The 33-year-old Clarkston, Mich. man faces two 20-year felonies after authorities say he arranged a meeting for sex with an online contact he believed was a 14-year-old girl and showed up wearing a T-shirt that read: 'World's Greatest Dad.' Everett was arraigned Tuesday, July 15, 2008 in Novi, Mich. district court on charges of child sexual abuse and using the Internet to attempt child sexual abuse.(AP Photo/State of Michigan, Department of Attorney General)"

For the details on how Paula completely lost her mind last night, read this.

Paula gets confused on Idol.

I've read that the judges normally listen to the dress rehearsals and base a lot of the their critiques on that on not the live performance, but I'm not sure the powers that be want that cat out of the bag. There will major damage control tonight.

I may not watch - I need to really start organizing my stuff for my NOLA trip - but I will post the results.

This is CNN on meth.

CNN reporter Richard Quest arrested in Central Park: "Quest was initially busted for loitering, the source said. Aside from the oddly configured rope, the search also turned up a sex toy inside of his boot, and a small bag of methamphetamine in his left jacket pocket.

It wasn't immediately clear what the rope was for.

The criminal complaint says the officer at the scene was able to ID the drug because of 'his prior experience as a police officer in drug arrests, observation of packaging which is characteristic of this type of drug, and defendant's statements that . . . 'I've got some meth in my pocket.' '"

You have to read the article to find out how the rope was "configured".

Whoa!

Oklahoma sheriff charged with using inmates as sex slaves: "Custer County Sheriff Mike Burgess resigned Wednesday just as state prosecutors filed 35 felony charges against him, including 14 counts of second-degree rape, seven counts of forcible oral sodomy and five counts of bribery by a public official."

Yeah, this is the guy. He doesn't look like he's even had sex before!

I kid. Seriously, though, how is it possible that no one else in that sheriff's department has been brought up on charges?

When Busey Attacks

This, ladies and gentleman, is what makes live television so great and so terrible all at the same time:

Wasn't this a Law & Order: SVU episode?

Young man's suicide blamed on mother's cult: "Former sect members tell CNN Berg encouraged adult-child sex. More often than not, they say, the chosen child was Rodriguez, the son of Karen Zerby, who Berg called his queen. Zerby became the leader of the sect when Berg died in 1994."

Well, whether it was or not, it's still horrifying. That poor guy.

Joan Van Ark is a zombie.

That's the only explanation I can find for this.

Braaaaiiiins!

I saw this on the local news last night.

Police fear child porn stash could yield hundreds of victims: "A doctor who once faced child abuse allegations kept a staggeringly large collection of child pornography -- found nearly a decade after his death -- and investigators fear there could be hundreds of victims, authorities said Wednesday. The owner of a West Hartford home formerly owned by Dr. George Reardon found the images -- 50,000 35 mm slides and more than 100 8 mm movie reels -- in a hidden storage space during a renovation project in May, town police said."

Wow.
