I just found out that Obama skipped his scheduled address to the Boy Scouts' National Jamboree so he could appear on The View instead. - Fuzzy Jul 29, 15:22 11

i think this janelle monae album might be a touch overrated. -- nm - TFox Jul 29, 15:13 4
- it doesn't live up to the two awesome singles, but she's at least trying something different. - Reagen Jul 29, 15:15 3
  - she definitely gets an A+ for effort. -- nm - TFox Jul 29, 15:19
  - but enough about her hair... -- nm - David Jul 29, 15:16 1
    - it's strange that she'd get hit by a tornado every single day. -- nm - Reagen Jul 29, 15:21

The hell? Jays involved on the Oswalt trade. Flipped their 2011 1B Brett Wallace for a 19-year old CF with speed named Gose. - Name Withheld By Request Jul 29, 15:00 5

  - Either they know something about Wallace that has never come out or they're moving Lind. (Or both.) - Name Withheld By Request Jul 29, 15:07 1
    - That's what's baffling. AA seems to be all about collecting talented players. This trade certainly looks like a net loss of talent. - musubi Jul 29, 15:17
  - Have I mentioned CFers always get overrated? - David Jul 29, 15:07 1
    - Your IM is what I'm wondering. Still, you'd think you could get more than Gose for him. - musubi Jul 29, 15:15
Ikariam question - JaxSean Jul 29, 14:59 2

Whoa. Premiere.com; "Comic Con Is Killing Hollywood " -- (link) - not2fast Jul 29, 14:49 23

      - ridiculous. Julia beats both of them that weekend -- nm - chuckles Jul 29, 15:24
- Ya know...for a guy waxing poetically about movie knowledge and such....he should know Batman was 1989. -- nm - Will Hunting Jul 29, 15:05
- I hope this guy chokes on Scott Pilgrim, easily the most hyped property at Comic-Con this year. -- nm - Mop (221 lbs) Jul 29, 15:03 1
  - i might even suffer through Eat Pray Love just to add another $12 to Julia Roberts' ass-kicking of it -- nm - chuckles Jul 29, 15:04
- What a tool. - Stephen (Status Seeker) Jul 29, 15:01
- uh, cause and effect, there. -- nm - Reagen Jul 29, 14:59

      - Never is right around the corner. -- nm - David Jul 29, 15:08
- I can say many things to this (although I'm sure someone else could say it better and back it up with voluminous stats and facts). Instead, I say... - Mop (221 lbs) Jul 29, 14:54 2
  - The writer comes across as a guy that has been trying to pitch a movie about love or some such and has been shut down every time. - Black Rabbit Jul 29, 14:57 1

- When did pixie start writing for Premiere? -- nm - Black Rabbit Jul 29, 14:51
In a shocking turn of events, Dragonball: Evolution isn't very good. -- nm - David Jul 29, 14:48 6
- Sometimes I get the feeling that you're trying to atone for something. -- nm - Reagen Jul 29, 15:00 3
  - This one is Kim's fault. She's been on me to watch it for a while now. -- nm - David Jul 29, 15:03 2
    - The obvious question whenever faced with an identical clone: "Who the Hell are you?" - David Jul 29, 15:10 1
      - With this Dragonball, he takes his vengeance on the Earth! - David Jul 29, 15:14
