Brett Favre Sister

his story has everything. Brett Favre. Meth. Well, that’s just two things, but still. “The younger sister (Alleged pic) of football great Brett Favre was among those arrested at the site of a meth lab in Diamondhead Wednesday. Hancock County narcotics agents uncovered the active meth lab at a condo complex off Golf Club Drive. Seven of the units were evacuated. Investigators said they spotted a drug buy in progress at a gas station at the front of Diamondhead. Those suspects then led deputies back to the meth lab location.”

New Zodiac Sign Dates

Remember striking out in the 70s with the line what’s your sign when the girl turned out to be a Virgo and you are a Gemini? Now, you can go back and try again if she is still available. Astronomers have announced that most people have been using the wrong astrological sign due to a mistake in the zodiac chart. They have recalculated the dates that correspond with each sign to accommodate millennia of subtle shifts in the Earth’s axis. I have been informed that after years of living as a Taurus (the bull), I am now considered an Aries (the ram).

The Minnesota Planetarium Society’s Parke Kunkle has caused astrological mayhem by releasing this new chart:

Blood Libel Definition

Sarah Palin, who had been silent for days, issued a forceful denunciation of her critics on Wednesday in a video statement that accused pundits and journalists of “blood libel” in what she called their rush to blame heated political rhetoric for the shootings in Arizona.

“Acts of monstrous criminality stand on their own,” Ms. Palin said in a seven-and-a-half minute video posted to her Facebook page. “Especially within hours of a tragedy unfolding, journalists and pundits should not manufacture a blood libel that serves only to incite the very hatred and violence that they purport to condemn. That is reprehensible.”

Ms. Palin’s use last year of a map with cross hairs hovering over a number of swing districts, including that of Representative Gabrielle Giffords, has become a symbol of that overheated rhetoric. In an interview with The Caucus on Monday, Tim Pawlenty, a potential 2012 rival for the Republican presidential nomination and the former governor of Minnesota, said he would not have produced such a map.

The Game Season 4 Episode 1

The much-hyped Season 4 premiere of ‘The Game’ aired on BET last night (the prior seasons were on CW). Everyone’s talking about the steamy scene between resident Cougar, Tasha Mack (Wendy Raquel Robinson), and Donte (BET’s 106 & Park host, Terrence J).
Actually, they’re all talking about Terrence J’s exceptional acting skills. He really made me believe he has some prior experience with women.
The sports sitcom centers around a trouble making sports agent, Tasha Mack (Robinson) and her professional football player clients, Derwin (Pooch Hall) and Tasha’s son Malik (Hosea Chanchez) — none of whom can act their way out of paper bags. Tia Mowry, who announced her pregnancy yesterday, plays Melanie, Derwin’s annoyingly insecure wife. Melanie and Mack don’t believe DJ is really Malik’s son. So Melanie swabs the cute tyke’s mouth for a DNA test, which turns out to be negative.
Watch Derwin’s reaction below when Melanie tells him that DJ is not his son.

Nelson was the last member of the family TV Nelson, which included actor / bandleader Ozzie, his wife, singer Harriet Hilliard and her brother teen idol Rick. The show originated on radio in 1952 as “Here Come the Nelson”, then ran for 320 episodes on television from 1952 to 1966 as “The Adventures of Ozzie and Harriet” with some lines drawn from the history celebrities own life. David Nelson also produced and directed many episodes of the show throughout its run.
