Liberal Punks Overrunning American Government With Four-Wheeled Contraptions [L8R SK8R]

Skateboarding legend Tony Hawk posted this snapshot of himself yesterday, skateboarding somewhere it's probably not allowed: The White House . He writes: "here is the real deal (not EEOB). Tried to get a better pic...but got shut down." Awesome. [ Via. ] Published by Original source : http://feeds.gawker.com/~r/gawker/full/~3/OIEf0rPr...

WSJ: Steve Jobs' Liver Transplant [Don't Call It A Comeback]

Steve Jobs had a liver transplant in Tennessee two months ago, he's in recovery, and is going to be back to work before the end of the month. Just like they said he would be. Yukari Iwatani Kane and Joann S. Lublin of The Wall Street Journal - who, it now appears has an outright monopoly on exclusives and leaks regarding Jobs (something that'd make sense, considering the most direct implication of the Apple CEO's various health crisis: Apple's stock price) - reported last night on the revelation. Though not going to far as to state anything but the surgery as outright fact, the Journal 's filing vaguely speculated that Jobs' 2004 cancer came back, and spread to his liver: William Hawkins, a doctor specializing in pancreatic and gastrointestinal surgery at Washington University in St. Louis, Mo., said that the type of slow-growing pancreatic tumor Mr. Jobs had will commonly metastasize in another organ during a patient's lifetime, and that the organ

The William Morris Assistants Lose Pay So the Endeavor Kids Won't Feel Bad [Pay Cuts]

Toiling as an assistant within the smoldering bowels of newly-formed superagency William Morris Endeavor should, apparently, be its own reward. Because the $9.50 an hour the gig pays won't buy any other kind of reward. Nikki Finke was tipped that the William Morris kids, who were making around $13.50 an hour, are getting a pay cut to reflect the $9.50's worth of nickels thrown at the Endeavor slaves' feet every sixty minutes. Now the poor WMA staffers are getting their pay scaled back, what with the economy and all. WME bosses are calling it "recalculating." Brutal. It's a potential pay decrease that "would honestly make the wages unliveable," according to one brave but anonymous soul who cried out from the fiery chasms of the still molten-hot headquarters. All this is extra funny and sad when you consider just how insanely much those blustering, besuited Ari Gold-wannabe agents are making. Though, once a few of these youngsters start mo

God Also Hates Jews, Crazy People Report [God Damn America]

The Fred Phelps "God Hates Fags" lunatics weren't getting enough attention with the picketing of soldiers' funerals and whatnot, so now they are just straight-up taking on the Jews . Hey, they're coming to New York! This coming Sunday, in New York City's Central Park, the Phelps clan plans to visit an Israeli tourism event, with a calendar entry that reads, "All the remainder can sit and stew in your own filth, remain filthy until the day God spews you out of the land and punishes you for never repenting from having killed Jesus. You will be destroyed at the hand of Antichrist Obama, and you will eat your little cute, chubby, Kosher babies ." But... why would Antichrist Obama kill the Jews who haven't apologized for killing Christ and will they eat their little cute, chubby, Kosher babies before or after their destruction? Think these things through , Westboro Baptist Church ! Also we can't believe they didn't think to go after
