“The man who committed this horrible fraud is not the man whom I have known for...”
– Ruth Madoff
Bull. Fucking. Shit. Ruth, how dare you. The least you can do is stand with your man. You knew what was going on. You slept in the same bed as this guy for decades, witnessed first hand the impossible results of his investment firm, enjoyed a life of extreme wealth, and you’re...

avid watchers of Pop-up Video will recall that Michael Jackson owns the rights to the Beatles’ catalog. looks like he’s leaving them to Paul McCartney.
I have said this before, Sir Paul is a dweeb, most for switching the the song writing credits around after Lennon’s death. Overall I am happy to know that one of The Beatles owns the credits again.
I hate(d) Michael...

Ringo WantsTo Sing More
Here’s that Beatles song I wrote a while back. Let me begin by saying two things: I tease out of love and I am aware that “Yellow Submarine” came before “Octopus’ Garden.”
My friend Scott Taylor plays Ringo and I think he did a great job. I also think Vinnie is amazing as Paul.

Best CH Original of all time.

Reminder: Paul McCartney
Paul McCartney tickets go on sale at 10AM this morning. The show itself wont sell out for a while but I bet the cheap $49.50 seats will. I saw him a few years ago in Boston and it was one of the most fun concerts I’ve ever been to.

Friday, June 12th is Loving Day, a holiday that deserves widespread attention.
Loving Day commemorates the Supreme Court’s 1967 decision in Loving v. Virginia, the case that made interracial marriage legal. Both the case and the holiday take their name from Richard and Mildred Loving, a couple who grew up and fell in love in Virginia, a state that epitomized America’s...
Facebook Vanity for Pages
Is it true that you can only reserve a vanity name for a Facebook “Page” (not profile, but page, like BustedTees’ or SIx13’s) if you have over 1000 fans?
MacOSX 10.6 - Snow Leopard
Last night I installed the WWDC build of Snow Leopard, the new MacOS. Some initial thoughts after 30 minutes of use:
1. Safari. Of my god. It’s by far the fastest web browser I’ve ever used. Goodbye Firefox, Goodbye Camino. Safari 4 is the shit. It even loads disaster sites like Gizmodo (LOVE the content, hate the site build) very quickly and smoothly. They were not kidding —...
