It's The Pitts

I tuned into more than enough of the NBC Nightly News with Brian Williams to find out Brad Pitt will be a part of tonight's telecast.

I'm willing to wager that whoever interviews him will not ask about this sentiment, he would consider executing those responsible for the BP oil spill if he was in power.

"I was never for the death penalty before -- I am willing to look at it again."

But Brad, I thought you believed -- "...no one has the right to deny another their life, even though they disagree with it, because everyone has the right to live the life they so desire if it doesn't harm another and because discrimination has no place in America...".

For the most part, Pitt's grandfather sums up how I feel about the actor --

I phoned my grandparents and my grandfather said 'We saw your movie.' 'Which one?' I said. He shouted 'Betty, what was the name of that movie I didn't like?

Inglorious Basterds was good and the scientific community is united in that fact.

Is it a coincidence that Brad Pitt and British Petroleum share the same initials?

Time has come today

Time magazine's 100 most influential people is out.

I checked the Merriam-Webster Online Dictionary for the meaning of influential...

one who has great influence.

Checking the meaning of influence...

an ethereal fluid held to flow from the stars and to affect the actions of humans.

"Ethereal fluid"...Isn't that what Bubba got on the big girl's dress?

Checking the meaning of ethereal...

lacking material substance.

That certainly accounts for:


Leonardo DiCaprio
Rosie O'Donnell
Sacha Baron Cohen
Kate Moss
George Clooney
Brad Pitt
Justin Timberlake
Tyra Banks
Cate Blanchett
America Ferrera
Tina Fey

Also lacking substance...Hillary Clinton and Barack Obama and the scientific community is united in that fact.
