Lord Of The Rings. If I have one more Japanese tourist popping out of the undergrowth and asking me to take their photo under some tree roots I'll do for them.

Where's Tom Cruise?

Don't forget his girl toy. I am SOOOO tired of hearing about Tom and Katie. And if I have to hear one more person refer to them as "TomKat" I may lose my lunch.

I couldn't make it too far through the original post that spurring on the discussion. The guy's an idiot or else like's playing devils advocate.

Just a few off the top of my head (As an American on America)...lmao

Paris Hilton... Hot and loaded but as dumb as a tree stump and a bimbo.

Segway scooter..... Fizzled when it was supposed to reinvigorate the personel transportation market platform.

*******Healthcare reform
*******Tax relief
*******Social security reform

******* Bill Clinton's sexual escapade in the oval office and then lie straight to the face of the American public...Need I say more. He could have atleast picked somebody alot more impressive then that bimbo and as well told the truth the first time.

******* Bagdad "Bob" reporting that no U.S. troops are ever going to be in Iraq. (while an abrams zips down the street behind him while hes busy broadcasting sorry you just cant miss the flag on it as it goes by. ) (Charge!)

The worlds largest mathematical Prime number finding (-1) I dont buy any prime number that includes the minus one factor and I dont care if it took 20 supercomputers so many years to come up with it. If I wrote that in Physics in college its still wrong.

And just about any dam thing that senator Ted Kennedy and John Kerry says is good for me or America for that matter. (Birds of a feather)

*** Oh and by the way my friggen tax returns (I swear I got screwed)

*Point bye the way I definately disagree with the list Sparten quoted at page top.
but that MO.

Most overrated? The Internet.

So what we can shop a little bit faster? What else has it done? I'll tell you what, it contributed to the most overused buzzwords in the late 20th century, "information super highway."

Sure, it improved our efficiency somewhat, but at the expense of half of our workforce spending valuable work time sending email jokes to one another. We want workers, not amateur comedians.





























disclaimer: The above is a tongue-in-cheek commentary to make fun of the self-importance of the bloggers.

Got the best one.....MEDIA /NEWS ACCURACY!

because the accuracy of most of the stories sucks! I wonder how much fighting, death and property damage it has stoked in the countries where our troops are!

I hope in the new year the Media starts to feel the heat for the inaccuracies they publish.
