This is a photo captured with Bush on MLK day at an event in DC on the 21st of January, 2008.  What would your caption be?  How about… “Who the HELL invited YOU to this party?!?”

Guardian Unlimited is reporting that Google and Simon Fuller (creator of all things Idol, not Simon Cowell mind you) has been in talks with Google for quite some time.  Speculation is that it’s about Internet and TV and entertainment… That’s not a hard speculation to make considering that’s what both parties do.  Likely just rumor however…  Doesn’t make sense that Google would be talking to "one guy" who claims Spice Girls and American Idol are his crowing achievements. 

You can Google what she said at her acceptance speech for winning an Emmy… it was a bit blasphemous but very true to Kathy’s colors.  E! has said they will censor it and several others have “condemed” it.  (P.S. Why do all these people care?) 

Well, aside from that, FOX News Coorespondant Lauren Green has insightfully proclaimed that it IS the very person Kathy claimed was NOT responsible for her winning who is in fact responsible for her Emmy win.  Whew!  Good thing someone finally came out and correct this very misguided… what do we call her?  Oh yeah… COMEDIAN!

Miss Teen USA contender from South Carolina (Lauren Caitlin Upton) this past Friday offered up her idea on why 1/5 of Americans can’t find the USA on a map.  This is rich! 

Upton said she “completely misunderstood” the question.  “I didn’t do anything wrong,” she said. “I wasn’t expecting (the question). I lost my train of thought.”

I fuond one of tshoe uarbn lneged eimal fawrrdos taht syas taht a sdtuy form Cigbrdae Utivnresiy fonud taht if the fsrit and lsat letetr of wdros are psrerveed in the sienlplg, taht the haumn biarn can dpciheer the wrod as it dsoen’t pcsroes ltteres idlnluaividy. You tlel me, can you raed tihs txet?

The theory isn’t nearly as simiple or true as that however.  (PS, If you couldn’t read the above, then read the below and come back to this….)  You should be able to read what is below much better, which is what was circulated around the Internet in 2003.  It has something to do with the first and last letter, but the arrangment of the scrambled letters is also condusive to allowing you to deciper the word.  What I have above was created randomly using my input verbiage and a CGI script to truely randomize everything between the first and last letter of the word.  Therefore, it is likely not as easy to read as what is below (which is the circulated snope);

Aoccdrnig to a rscheearch at Cmabrigde Uinervtisy, it deosn’t mttaer in waht oredr the ltteers in a wrod are, the olny iprmoetnt tihng is taht the frist and lsat ltteer be at the rghit pclae.

“God, I hate mustard. I don’t like condiments. Condiments in general I find unsettling. I don’t like ketchup. I don’t like mayonnaise. I didn’t have salad dressing until I was in college, I swear to God.”

“I wasn’t ready. When I was a little kid I wouldn’t eat cucumbers unless my mother cut out the seeds. That behavior should not be tolerated, first of all. My mother did a horrible, horrible job. Thankfully I can now eat a whole cucumber. ”
