“I Mean…What?!?” – Abe Gurko

Like this comes as a surprise to anyone? Shame on those people to ran to buy tickets to listen to Charlie Sheen rant about nothing in the first place. Like he put together some kind of amazing show in one week? People were leaving in throngs and asking for their money back.  I do hope no one was refunded a dime because you get what you deserve. Seriously, who gives a flying cahoot about this nut bag?… Read More »

What’s all the fuss about Snooki being cast, I mean, booked at Rutgers University? It should come as a surprise to no one that we as a society have gone so far off the mark of excellence, that a Snooki appearance actually makes total sense. Frankly, I am surprised that she will not be the commencement speaker, but the fact remains that Snooki is part of a Rutgers University Programming Association sponsored comedy show. Why anyone is bringing Toni Morrison into this conversation is preposterous. Toni is sooo not funny. Granted, it is shocking that $32,000 is what Snooki gets… Read More »

NEWS UPDATE (April Fools, no joke) – Before you read yesterday’s story, the big story today is that Donald Trump will get a “morning chat” kind of spot on Fox News, during Fox and Friends. Bold, brash and never bashful is his slogan. Hot. He will appear every Monday, kind of like a Monday morning quarterback. (MARCH 31, 2011) – Anyone that cannot see that Donald Trump is taking the birther stance in regards to Barack Obama does not understand the politics of the Nielsen Ratings. Donald Trump has no interest whatsoever in becoming President of the United States. The… Read More »

Couldn’t let this one go by. Yesterday, Page Six compared the upcoming nuptials of Prince William to Kate Middleton with the pending marriage of Victoria’s Secret stunner Lily Aldridge to Kings of Leon front-man, Caleb Followill. Now, look, I am by no means an obsessive Royal Watcher, or an anarchist, nor am I hip enough to know the name of the front man for any group these days, but to put the two events in the same category, well, the word stretch seems like a stretch.… Read More »

Oy, does the term TMI (too much information) apply here? That would be a yes. A new book, Great Soul: Mahatma Gandhi And His Struggle With India, depicts the Indian icon as a sexual weirdo who left his wife in 1908 for a German-Jewish architect and bodybuilder. Talk about moonlighting. The tome, written by Pulitzer prizing #winning author, Joseph Lelyveld, addresses some of the letters and dishy bits about the romance the two had for six years. Recently, the Oscar-winning Best Film, Gandhi, was on TCM and no where does it mention this factoid. I loved that film. And now,… Read More »

Thanks to Twitter, Marc Jacobs now knows the downside of Social Media. Some intern had the quintessential bad first job experience and Twittered about how horrendous Robert Duffy is. Look, I am sure he is no picnic, but who is? It sounds like this boy, fresh out of college and being mollycoddled his whole life, could not figure out how to deal with the real world. There are studies after studies showing that the Baby Boomer parents have raised a generation of the neediest, spoon-fed, car-pooled tangerines. When kids get into the work force, they are overwhelmed for not being… Read More »

Please note that I Mean…What?!? has been hacked. If you received multiple emails from me, it is because of some douche bag that has nothing better to do. Please accept my apologies for this error. Hoping to fix this sitch. Peace and Grooviness…ABE… Read More »

Having worked in fundraising for wonderful charities, it is with a heavy heart  to learn about the horrendous scam circling Madonna‘s now ill-conceived school for girls in Malawi. I say ill-conceived because if this project was properly structured, with vigorous oversight, then 3.8 million dollars would not have vanished. Who is to blame? Surely the Executive Director, Philippe van den Bossche, who became involved with Madonna’s trainer, Tracy Anderson, in the middle of the project. Now it makes sense why Madonna fired her “celebrity trainer ass“. Now, someone tell me how a 15 million dollar project allows for a 3.8… Read More »

Did you hear about the mural featuring working people that was just ordered to be taken down by Paul LePage, the Republican Governor of Maine? Yes, the above beautiful piece of art was considered inappropriate and moved from Portland City Hall. In what sounds like a Fahrenheit 451 move, this Gross Baboon (I hereby nominate Lepage) thought it was worth his time and energy to censor this artist, Judy Taylor. Well, that’s really what it is going on here, right? What is happening in the United States? When did the working class become the enemy? It is as though the… Read More »

Whether Sarah Palin runs for President or not, the problem here is that she does not know how to shut her pie hole. Just yesterday she vomited these pearls on, what else, Fox News. “I’m still wondering who the heck is going to be out there with a servant’s heart willing to serve the American people for the right reason, not for ego, not for special interests, not with obsessive partisanship,” Palin, a paid Fox contributor, told the network’s Greta Van Susteren. I am confident that she will not run for President. Yes, she is a dumb ass, but Sarah… Read More »
