I tried to refrain from posting anything about Balloon Boy because that was just too obvious. BUT apparently the Heene boys made a music video called “Not Pussified” that jumped to about 500,000 views as of today. They kind of sound like the Beastie Boys meet the Moffats. How can someone let their kids do this, you ask? Why not let your kids do this?! Check it out after the jump.

Majority Whip Richard J. Durbin finally caught onto all the crack jokes and introduced a bill that will once and for all settle the differences between crack and cocaine, the Washington Post reports:
Under current law, it takes 100 times as much powdered cocaine as crack to trigger the same mandatory minimum sentence…
…Durbin’s bill would also increase the quantity of crack cocaine required to trigger a mandatory prison term, as well as stiffen penalties for large-scale drug traffickers and violent criminals.
Essentially they’re loosening the reins on crack due to the number of people incarcerated for drugs and increasing punishment for coke dealers because Durbin got a whack ass bag last week.

A reunion episode of popular Aussie variety show Hey Hey It’s Saturday featured an act dressed entirely in black face that called themselves “The Jackson Jive.” Bet they didn’t that one was going to piss anyone off.
Actually, no one was pissed off except for singer and guest judge on the show Harry Connick Jr., who gave The Jackson Jive a ‘0′ and told them that if they “turned up lookin’ like that in the United States… it’d be like Hey Hey There’s No More Show.”
Host Daryl Somers was completely oblivious, asking Connick if he could redeem them a little, “just for turning up, maybe a two or a three?” So was the stupid lady sitting next to him, who gave the act a ‘7,’ calling them “cute” with “great choreography.”
The Sydney-based hacks who called themselves a “Tribute to Michael Jackson” were actually a group of medical professionals (including a therapist, I think!). More racist Australian television and Daryl Somer’s half-assed apology to Connick after the jump.
So after a year’s hiatus, I’m back. I’m sure this website and all 10 posts were dearly missed by my eight readers.
In celebration of my highly-anticipated comeback, here’s an episode of Kablam! after the jump.
