FOX News Is Dying
Fox News is dying and has seen it's best days. It's now in its Swan Song. It's dying. They've outlived their welcome and are in decline. Why? Because America is sick and tired of them spewing hatred? Is it Obama? Have they just outgrown the American public? If you take a look at these five factors I've listed below, you can see why they will no longer be the top news channel and why there ratings are at an all-time low. Watch it while you can because unless they change their ways and start telling real news, their days are numbered.

Five Groups That Want To Secede
There's been a lot of talk, lately, of groups or states that would liket to secede from the United States. I am sure most people have thought about this in the past, but none actually plan on doing it. As times continue to head towards the more lunatic fringe, however, there has been more talk about actually pulling away from the United States. It's not going to happen, but they are getting some press time. The act of secession would most likely lead to bad circumstances from the state deciding to make the shift. (See the What If article "What if Texas Succeeds in Seceding?"). Here are five groups that still think that leaving the United States is a good idea and what they plan on doing after they make the move. Read more...

Harold Camping’s Five Best Excuses For The Rapture
OK, I need to get one more Harold Camping "Rapture" post out before I let it die. Hmmm...maybe a bad choice of words. This guy has cried Rapture too many times.

None of them are real, of course. He believes that he misjudged the date. I think he's crazy. Read more...

What If Fox News Made Movie Reviews?
Welcome to the world of "What Ifs?" We're going to look at the harsh, fake reality if Fox News actually controlled our movie reviews. I am not trying to suggest anything derogatory about Fox's "Fair and Balanced" news umm...well, I guess it is "news" coverage, but they do have a way of separating reality with commentary. Somehow, that commentary always leans one way, too, so I can't imagine it would be any different when they reported on the movies that people go to see. Here is a look at what some of those reviews might be if they were to talk about our very favorite series. Read more...
