Toddler sings, wins hearts, asks for contract extension
He was known for commanding a stage presence like no one in his preschool had ever before.
In related news, his parents were arraigned yesterday for enslaving the child with twelve-hour singing lessons daily, with no bathroom breaks or snack time.
Come on, sing it again for the camera.”
Note, this may not be true at all.
The Temple News loves CREED!
I have been cleaning, organizing and scanning many of the 86-years of archives of The Temple News, the college newspaper for which I work, and every once in a while you come across a gem.
Remember Creed? Of course you do. Well, in 1998, while Creed was at its peak, the band came to Philadelphia and TTN was there, with a review, interview and plenty of love. Rock it out, my friend.
Yes you read that headline right, ‘Creed continues to rise!’

Patrick Murphy: preserving the American way in Philadelphia
Anyone catch the best story of the month a couple weeks ago?
U.S. Congressman Patrick Murphy (D., Pa.), who serves the Philadelphia suburb of lower Bucks County, was the only dissenting vote in a House resolution congratulating the New York Giants on their victory in Super Bowl XLII.
As a former 700-level security guard and lifelong Eagles fan, I couldn’t, in good conscience, vote for the New York Giants. The only thing worse would have been a resolution honoring the Dallas Cowboys.“
A 412 to 1 vote in meaningless, fluff legislation congratulating a sports franchise in a victory. I don’t care who you, that’s funny.
Chris Berman: screaming and defending
Read a bit of an interview from famed sports announcer Chris Berman, who has come under fire for a video depicting him screaming his head off. Surprise, surprise, it found its way onto YouTube.
God and politics in Lynchburg, Tennessee
This video is typical puffy shirted yuppie goes to the South to make someone with an accent seem stupid. It is unfair, and harmful and… undeniably amusing. …But damn it if I am not at least somewhat against it.
See what two women, and a teenager, think about Barack Obama and the bible.
I saw this video on the Clog, the news blog of Philadelphia CityPaper.
A video tribute to George Washington's birthday
Today, Feb. 22, is the 276th anniversary of George Washington, the dude who is recognized as the first president of the United States. Good for him.He is dead now, though, died Dec. 14, 1799, according to my calendar. Still, he died a long time ago, so it isn’t that sad. Let’s celebrate him with, perhaps, a decidedly strange song in his honor?
I saw this on Digidigidigi on President’s Day.
Stuff white people like
Every once in a while you come across something so hilarious that it is bound to be
something you would never want your name associated with. Still, the blog Stuff White People Like is worth mentioning, particularly a post that nails the concept beyond all others.
So much of my travel experiences have taught me this valuable, valuable lesson.
I didn’t read all of them, but I sure hope ‘having minority friends’ is one of them. White people collect black/Asian/Hispanic/Indian/U.S. Census form “Other” friends like baseball cards.
Reporter takes fall on TV for our enjoyment
Watch this get-out-and-get-’em adventure TV news reporter ruin (or make?) her career in Oregon forever.
I spotted this on a blog called Funny Video of the Day.
Understand the Democratic vote through dance
Are you having difficulty understanding why Barack Obama is soaring and Hillary Clinton is drowning in Democratic Party primaries and caucuses all of sudden? Do you love to watch politicians dance or talk about the importance of dance education? Well, boy, do I have a post for you.
See, I have summed up the recent dynamic in the Democratic Party through something we all understand… dancing.
Online searches for Barack and Hillary dancing come up with two distinctly different interpretations ensue. Seriously, watch, you’ll get it.
