Nevada GOP Senate nominee Sharron Angle was recently talking to a group of Hispanic high school students. At one point, she was asked about her ads featuring Latinos and discussions of illegal aliens. Angle responded, “I think that you’re misinterpreting those commercials. I’m not sure that those are Latinos in that commercial. What it is, is a fence and there are people coming across that fence. What we know is that our northern border is where the terrorists came through.”

Ok. Well none of the 9/11 terrorists came from Canada and Canada is now trying to get Angle to apologize.

Angle went on though and questioned if the people in the ad were even Latinos adding, “So that’s what we want is a secure and sovereign nation, and, you know, I don’t know that all of you are Latino. Some of you look a little more Asian to me.”

So in honor of Sharron Angle’s remarks, we bring you the Asian-Looking Hispanics for Sharron Angle (because she looks kinda crazy) T-Shirt.

Kendra Wilkinson has a memoir. Really?

What’s crazier: the fact that she does or the fact that someone out there will buy it?

M. Night Shyamalan’s career arc has been a topic of discussion among filmgoers and the entertainment media after his last few films. Some people think that the director’s career has been on a downward spiral over the last few years. They believe his career basically peaked with his third, and most famous film, The Sixth Sense.

I got a taste of the public perception tonight when I attended a press and promo screening Wednesday evening for Scott Pilgrim vs. the World. Mostly public, with a smattering of press. There were a couple of the studio’s trailers before the film.

One was for Drew and John Erick Dowdle’s new thriller, Devil. When the tag “From the mind of M. Night Shyamalan” (he has a “story by” credit) appeared on the screen, the audience burst out into spontaneous laughter. Not a scientific poll, but perhaps an inkling as to what the moviegoing public thinks of the filmmaker’s recent output.

Here’s a look at the trailer for Buried, which comes out October 8th, 2010. In the film, Ryan Reynolds plays Paul Conroy, a U.S. contractor working in Iraq. After an attack by a group of Iraqis he wakes to find he is buried alive inside a coffin. With only a lighter and a cell phone it’s a race against time to escape this claustrophobic death trap.

After Joe Barton’s apology to Tony Hayward, will the Republicans decide to change party nickname from “GOP” to “GO BP”? Or will they embrace clean energy and suggest capping Elisabeth Hasselbeck’s mouth to reduce the global warming caused by all her hot air?

I think this story from Money Smarts Blog is a good enough reason to avoid owning rental properties and buy REIT shares instead.

We noticed we were getting a lot of traffic for a poster we sell of Manchester United’s Wayne Rooney.

We decided we’d fill some of that searching with a new page featuring the star striker: Wayne Rooney (Manchester United) Souvenirs

It’s funny how an appearance on a news show or site can trigger a hot trend in Google. Today, actress Christa Miller — of Drew Carey, Scrubs and Cougar Town fame — is a hot topic. So in the interest of serving Google, here’s a photo of Christa Miller we took back in 1999 at the Golden Globes.

Remember when Lindsay Lohan was known as an actress? Remember when she did comedies rather than being the punchline? Right now she just appears to be circling the drain and the only question is whether the plumbing leads to jail, the morgue, or complete obscurity.

It used to be that the entertainment news shows kept track of her work. Now Access Hollywood’s Billy Bush keeps a running tally of her nights out. It’s almost like he’s trying to publicly shame members of her family into launching a successful intervention, but how do you shame a family that’s shameless?

Michael Lohan does interviews professing his desire to save his daughter but there’s always a feeling that this self-promoting guy has an angle. Like he wants an intervention but only if he can televise it. If he’s serious about his efforts he needs to find a new crusader and take himself out of the equation. His ex-wife, Dina, is no better. In a day and age when paparazzi photos track stars on a minute by minute basis, how can she claim she and her daughter were at home at 11:30pm when the cameras show her at a hotel at 2 a.m.?

As a critic, I think Lohan’s an okay actress. Some people make out like her current state of affairs have destroyed a fantastic creative force, but so far she’s done nothing that will live on in cinematic history. If she has better work, it’s ahead of her. Lindsay apparently has a fascination with Marilyn Monroe. In her drug and alcohol-fueled mind, perhaps she sees an early death as a way to mythologize herself and her talent, rather than face the fact that her career needs a major overhaul.

At this point, it’s even a wonder if her career can be saved. Even if she cleaned up tomorrow, her stumbling, drink-throwing, angry tweeting actions will always be present in every article about her. She’d always be “Hollywood bad girl Lindsay Lohan…”

Where do you think she’s headed? Can she be saved or are we just waiting for the gruesome TMZ story that leads off with “The LAPD reported they found the actress…”

Is there something I’m missing here? One of the top searches on Google right now is for “deviled eggs recipe rachel ray”. Is there something that Rachel Ray knows about deviled eggs that mere mortals don’t? Is there a connection between deviled eggs and Easter?

How do you make deviled eggs?
