Rush Limbaugh says Senator Ted’s gonna get dead.

I wish I could say something witty here like “does anyone even listen to Rush Limbaugh?”, but I know there are plenty of folks out there addicted to his crazy diarrhea mouth. Today Limbaugh decided to take a break from maligning President Obama (sort of) on his daily radio hate-fest and took a swipe at the ailing Massachusetts Senator. Limbaugh’s poorly timed jab was in relation to the time he said it would take to pass the current health care reform legislation. Here’s more from Mr. Oxycontin himself:

Before it’s all over, it’ll be called the Ted Kennedy memorial health care bill.

In other news, smoking a cigar is no longer sexy.

So what’s the bad news Doc…?

Former Monkee, Peter Tork says he has been diagoned with a rare, slow-growing form of head and neck cancer. Tork (pictured above) will start radiation treatment after an upcoming surgery to remove cancerous regions on his tongue. Sadness…

Obamas! Neither healthy or hygenic so they are probably delicious…

An Indonesian company has created a snack with a cartoon image of President Barack Obama ( I never get sick of typing that). The snack made of flour, sugar, salt, vegetable oil and something sexy called flavour, costs about 4 cents a bag.

The Indonesian Consumer Foundation requested that the government to investigate the snack as “Obama” contains a small plastic toy which is considered “unhygienic” (!) and could be mistaken as food by infants. The Foundation also said that the image of President Obama on the bag, featuring Obama dropping a grenade into a trash can while waving a flag that says “Snack Anti Terrorist!”, is derogatory.

The Scandalous Adventures of Brown Cow and Brown Chicken…

There are days when my brain prefers humor that is marketed to my inner 13 year old. Today is one of those days. More info on the upcoming series coming soon to itsokaytobebrown.com.

Juliette and the New Romantics…

Per their Myspace page, Juliette Lewis of Juliette and the Licks confirmed that the Licks have disbanded. Lewis cited creative differences, revolving door lineup changes, fist fights, Scientology, screaming, drugs, Tom Cruise, and bagging on gigs for the demise of her band. Here’s more from L. Ron Hubbard’s punk rock poster-child, Juliette Lewis:

The bottom line is it is extremely hard to keep a band together and to keep people growing creatively in the same direction as songwriters which is nearly impossible. I’ve been fortunate to work with very solid and talented musicians and good hearted human beings regardless of anything else. For all the drama I’ve heard other bands have; screaming matches, fist fights, not talking at all, drug use, missed shows etc. We’ve had little in comparison. So I am thankfull for the guys that came along. And in the end I realized “The Licks” was my naive idealized version of what a rocknroll band should be. And not everyone can fit that.

Lewis’ new band, Juliette and the New Romantics, will play SXSW on March 18th and San Diego’s Indie Fest on March 28th. Lewis says the band will continue to play Licks songs with the new band taking a rougher, more dreamy direction. Whatever that means…

Mickey Rourke takes a drag in LA.

It’s been a while since any photos new photos of Mickey have popped up out on the Internets, which initially made me worry a about his well being. Thankfully, as you can see in the photo above, Mickey is just fine. Over-accessorized perhaps, but fine.

You can see the rest of the photos at Dlisted. Including this one of Mickey shooting the paps a double-bird with while wearing baby blue gloves. Sexy!
