Read moreNothing is more essential to crisis communications than an idiot to create the crisis… Rev. Dickie had that item yesterday about the Lululemon co-founder who observed, on national TV, that yoga pants don’t work for all women. Ask your doctor if spandex is right for you, huh? I guess we now know why he’s the former CEO. He’s not the
Read moreAs explained to me by my 14 year-old daughter, Chloe. So, the St. Louis Rams had their star QB Sam Bradford, who is majorly hot, go down for the season with a knee injury? And word is Tim Tebow was thinking here was his chance – an NFL team needs a quarterback and he’s an NFL quarterback? But the Rams
Read moreI really liked Sam’s piece this morning on dog dreams. But in thinking about it, I’ve come to a disturbing conclusion. The dog is mystified by science and technology. He can’t tell the difference between what’s real and what’s imaginary. A lot of his happiness in life results from his ignorance. Sam, your dog is a Republican. Jesus is coming,

Read more– Okay, you know how when you’re pouring a beer and you pour it too fast and all of a sudden it starts to foam up really fast and you’re like, ohmygod, and you quickly stick your mouth in it and try to suck off the extra foam before it spills all over the place? Right. Don’t try that with

The United States spans six time zones. I have now lived in four of them (Eastern, Central, Mountain and Pacific), visited a fifth (Hawaiian-Aleutian) and flown over the sixth (Alaskan), so I feel comfortable addressing the question of which one is best with some authority. Eastern Time Zone I begin with a certain bias. Like most kids, I hated going

Lonelyman walks into Ernie’s a pizza and Italian in Northwest Denver. The hostess, a pleasant enough looking blonde woman, greets him and asks “how many?” Lonelyman has always dreamed of responding to this sort of query with some wiseassery, like motioning to either side and saying “just the six of us” or “table for 8 – I like to move

Our buddy Greg Thow (one of the mainstays at S&R’s sister site 5280 Lens Mafia) and I were guests on episode #28 of the E Wilks Show last night. Okay, mainly Greg was the guest. I tagged along because I had nothing else to do. Eric and sound engineer/sidekick extraordinaire Tony are genuinely funny guys and it was an absolute
Read moreIf you haven’t see this video yet, strap in. Hilarity is a’fixin’ to ensue. SFGate has the gory details here. The key, it seems, is this part: KTVU Channel 2 News owned this breaking news story with a number of firsts! – First on-air. – First on-line. – First with alerts to mobile devices. – First on Twitter & Facebook.
Read moreAs you probably already know, the world ends tomorrow. If you didn’t know this, you might want to Google “Mayan calendar” and start getting right with Jesus. Anyhow, the end of the world is a pretty big deal, and we’d like to know how you plan on spending it. Also, we want to know how you’d spend it if you
Read moreMy little sister sent me this the other day and I’ve been having flashbacks ever since. There’s only one false note: no Southern woman in history ever said “is my hair too big?”
Read moreHappy Saturday, kiddies, and welcome back to another exciting episode of SVR! Today, let’s see if you can guess the theme. Up first – I’ve heard of “gangbusters,” but “Gangnambusters” is a new one. Next: In retrospect, it’s hard to understand why they didn’t do it this way in the first place. Finally, the only thing wrong here is that
Read moreI broke the story back in June that “Donald Trump” is a hoax. In actuality, the real Donald Trump sold his identity, back in the 1980s, to none other than Andy Kaufman. Kaufman then staged his own death and assumed the Tony Clifton-esque Trump persona in pursuit of the greatest mass pranking since War of the Worlds. Today, millions of people
Read moreEverybody seems to be so negative about campaign season. They hate the ads, they hate the mudslinging, they hate the lying, they hate the candidates. Not me – I LOVE campaign season. Why? Because it’s an opportunity to learn stuff that not only didn’t I know before, but that I’d never learn any other way.
