History repeats itself: Mike Huckabee calls Natalee Portman's pregnancy 'troubling' because she is not married
Reminiscent of years ago with another politician attacked a pregnancy, although Murphy Brown’s was fiction. But Dan Quayle wasn’t running for president. Mike Huckabee is..
Huckabee: If Natalee Portman’s pregnancy troubles you, guess what, your weird kinda creepy not at all interesting weekend talk show on Fox News troubles a lot more people than a gorgeous Natalee Portman carrying a baby with pride..

Happy Friday night ..with Britney babe
I'm curious to ask my followers, and other Tumblr users, this question
Is Tumblr, in your mind, trustworthy? Do you feel confident not backing up your data? Do you think the amount of times the site goes down has been an impairment to gaining credibility? .. Someone I know told me every time they tried to read Coal Speaker, it was unavailable.. thoughts? ideas? ..

Eight legged freaks
65,000 Mazda 6 cars are being recalled.. Not for electronic issues.. not for brakes.. not for safety concerns. But instead because of eight legged freaks, the tiny version..
The Japanese automaker is recalling more than 50,000 Mazda6 cars from the 2009-2010 model years in the United States and an additional 15,000 vehicles in Canada, Mexico and Puerto Rico..
The company said the spiders could weave a tangled web in vents and clog up ventilation..
Even more frightening would be the dreaded brown recluse spider.. In this case, though, it’s the less dreaded by still scary yellow sac spiders, which can still pose a threat andleave a lasting impression..

Oh what strange things people do. I am eagerly anticipating Paula Deen riding some part of Gingrich’s head on the website Paula Deen Riding Things
Newt Gingrich in front of stock photos. It’s a web site. That’s his wife Calista there on the right. Names of kittens n/a.
Absolutely hysterical..
Here's a happy mid-day lift for you
Who owns America, and consequently, you?
China 20.4%..
Japan 20.2%
England 12.4%
Oil exports 5%
And the list goes on, with some fine folks like Brazil, Caribbean Bankers, Hong Kong, and the friends to the North in Canada.
You can find the full amount of information on our owners here..
Now hopefully if our dollar keeps crashing none of the owners will try to collect on the debt…
The airports were apparently testing grounds for further body scans
ATTACK OF THE BODY SCANNERS, 2011 edition..
Indeed, if the airport body scanners had a stigma connected to them, just imagine what the new crop of body scanners will do—body scanners that will be train stations and also in mobile vans, roaming the streets, blasting high powered radiation to pedestrians who just want to jay walk and go on with life..
Interestingly, the body scanners have been ‘debunked’ by several sources over the past years, saying they were simply ramblings of paranoid conspiracy hacks. Now, with the information appearing in FORBES, either the world has turned upside down or those conspiracy hacks were on to something for years.
Scan me up Scotty.
RIP the cougar?
We are being told that the eastern cougar has become extinct.
If you ask me, evidence would say otherwise:

TIME magazine confirms what we know: America is no longer number 1
But on the flipside, many good people have always been number two. And some people think David Letterman is funny, and he’s been number 3 since 1995..

New Stephen King book announced
Simon & Schuster has just announced that a new Stephen King novel, 11/22/63, will be released on November 8th, 2011 and will focus on someone going back in time to try to prevent the death of JFK
Sounds like a good book. Of course good only if it’s not 200,000 pages long, as Mr. King so often hands us.

Some unpleasant evening oil prices.. shockingly high.. frighteningly increasing as the seconds tick on..
Having the dreaded midday slump? .. enjoy some LOVE TODAY from Mika.
My wife and I have also found this song to be the most joyful to play while cleaning up infant regurgitation. Enjoy.. Be happy. Life’s short.

The Charlie Sheen soap opera continues today
After last night’s Hugh Hefner-lite appearance on ABC, a court order led to a late night removal of his two sons from his party mansion.. Sheen is now busy making the rounds launching a counter offensive against all those who are anti Sheen..
Are we watching the dimming of a once bright star? Or .. are we being “Sheened” ..?
Good morning all..

Will the outrage from last time continue? Once again Facebook is changing its privacy policy and agreeing to share information with third parties..
And just yesterday, the Coal Speaker warned to beware the Facebook policy changes.. They are trying it all over again.
And yes.. They intend on sharing home phone numbers and addresses stored within their vast servers of personal information on you—information you (and somewhat me) freely gave throughout the years..

I want to ride my tricycle
…And Google will ride it where it likes.
As a matter of fact, Google is now employing the use of bikes as a means of street view!
And leave it to a big tech company to embarrass those documenting and search-enabling the world, street by street: They aren’t even using real bikes, but instead tricycles ..
The dress is killing her--literally
I’m not a Hollywood star or starlet.. I’m not a mogul.. I’m not a part of the vast array of the rich and famous that grace the streets of Tinseltown.. But I also can say with confidence, I don’t know of anyone who would wear a dress so tight that it made the person go to the hospital due to pain!
That, however, is exactly what happened to Joan Collins at the Oscars, where she wore a dress so skin tight even her skin was shocked..
When you need hard hitting news about stars and their strange occurrences, turn no further than to the UK EXPRESS TIMES, which reports the event like this:
“We had been there for seven hours and I started feeling dizzy,” she told interviewers. “I tried to get some air but I felt really faint.”
At this point theatre manager Percy Gibson, 45, the star’s fifth husband, took decisive action. “I wanted to leave in our limo but Percy decided to call an ambulance,” added Joan.
“We went to the hospital and they did all the tests before the doctors told me I was absolutely fine and released me. The truth was, I made the wrong decision to wear a very tight dress and had something rather like a Victorian swoon.
Joan Collins can thank her 5th husband. No thanks to her taste in clothing..
Revenge of the 80s! John Stamos is potentially being considered to replace Charlie Sheen
Charlie, in the mean time, declared war on CBS and has achieved blanket media attention. Good show, Charlie.. reminds me of Andy Kauffman’s outbursts in the last century.

Great TV for those who missed it
Alex Jones from THE VIEW today.. Competent unscripted.. Absolutely hilarious to watch the hosts’ faces as Jones unleashed about the Iraq war, Building 7, and Iraqi civilian deaths.. You’d think they would have done 10 seconds of background research if they didn’t want to be caught off guard. Jones’ unpredictability is predictable. And it made for great unscripted daytime TV..
Great TV for those who missed it
Lest we forget..
Charlie Sheen is a reasonably decent actor. His latest actions, I still contend, are partially just that: Him doing his craft (very well too)
And the VIEW didn't know Alex Jones would do that??
The ladies looked shocked. He plugged himself and attacked George W Bush more than defending Charlie Sheen.. Plus mentioned Building 7.. I got a kick out of the whole thing..
Real Charlie Sheen quotes may be better than fake Chuck Norris facts
One of my favorites: On CBS ‘war’
‘Defeat is not an option’
How will Charlie win his war with CBS?’With zeal and violent hatred’
I think he also has tiger’s blood. And Sheen will not allow defeat to be an option, he says.. And he wants a pay RAISE…
'Duh.. Winning!'
Three earthquakes in the past few hours strike Arkansas
The U.S. Geological Survey recorded the 4.7 quake at 11 p.m. Sunday about four miles northeast of Greenbrier— which is 35 miles north of Little Rock..
But it didn’t end there..
There was a preliminary magnitude 3.8 quake 18 minutes later and a preliminary 3.6 magnitude quake was recorded at 2:46 a.m. this morning..
Rumors have been abounding over the earthquake swarm that is hitting the state recently. Some theories include hydraulic fracking—the process that the extracts natural gas from the ground.
Just 60 tremors hit Arkansas last week, not including the three within the past few hours..

Talk about dodging a bullet.. Earth did just that ..
A monster solar flare spewed for 90 minutes but it was not directed at earth.
The raw images from the video are startling..
Expect lots of Charlie Sheen quotes
..after his intriguing and somewhat frightening appearance on the TODAY SHOW this morning..
Good morning. The sun is rising and the light is shining. May you be safe throughout the hours of this day and week and do something positive for earth. Happy Monday.

In the wake of strong earthquakes, deaths, injuries, and landscape changes, a new threat has emerged: Incidents of domestic violence are also surging..
Fatigue and frailty of humanity.. and a skyrocketing increase in abuse and violence..
"Sometimes the way that it’s expressed, people are a lot (closer to) their breaking point and sometimes some of the reactions can be quite out of character. Certainly domestic violence is something that becomes more obvious."

Weather to watch for: There is a possibility (only at this point a possibility) that the East Coast may see a major snow event somewhere along the East Coast.. It's worth watching
And it’s also worth noting: The blizzard of 93 occurred well into March of that year, as well. It could happen. Chances are it won’t. But after this year’s wild winter weather, once last hurrah is a very possible situation..

I've noticed something about parenting..
Having a child makes parents speak in code. I am not joking.. Mom or Dad will say things to each other through their infant who can’t speak yet. Case in point, if Tara wants me to do something, she will tell Ayden, “And now daddy is going to help out and get [insert task or item]”.. And I do it to her.. While changing a diaper, “Now mommy will get me the butt creme.” Well not always butt creme.. but no matter who much I mature or progress in age, the term ‘Butt Creme” for a product will always make me laugh—just don’t get it on your iPhone screen, it’s a chore getting clean.
Johnny Cash takes us into another Sunday..
This Sunday is Oscar Sunday. It’s set to be dull.
It’s also cold in Tinseltown.. But never too cold for a red carpet..
What is it about a Sunday morning that makes you feel like everything is coming down…?
