*You are humorous and cheerful with good friends* I just got that in a fortune cookie… that is not a fortune! wtf?
YES! I’ve been noticing this disturbing trend as well….”fortunes” that aren’t really fortunes at all…they are compliments!
The men who really believe in themselves are all in lunatic asylums.

I’m not ready to let go of this… it’s my favorite thing I have ever made. Re-Blog Party! NO? OK.
Reblogging this because it’s hilarious and my friend Carlos helped Delbert out on this, and I think I met Delbert once when I was a Page? The internets is a small world.
ABC working with Veoh
supersecretdownlowhollywoodradar:
After holding back on joining Hulu, ABC signed a deal with Veoh to make full episodes of prime time shows available on veoh.com… Users who discover a show on Veoh will actually pull up ABC’s own player to watch the video with pre-sold ads.
Dipshit old media move, ABC. Way to think that through. Instead of using an extrememly popular, successful, proven...
The fad is fading
complicatedshoes:
At any rate, I keep thinking about Livestrong bracelets. Those yellow bracelets raised millions of dollars. But how many bracelets do you see anymore?

You can view large versions of all the Radar photos and “follow” new posts through your Tumblr Dashboard or via RSS feed. I initially set out to make a site that would post all Radar items (not just photos), but ran into some...

A truly exceptional thing.
NYT article is here.
supernice:
Tim Russert’s son, Luke, asked Barack Obama and John McCain to sit next to one another at his father’s funeral Wednesday. And they did. From the NYT -
“Then, in remarks from the pulpit, he exhorted them and other politicians to “engage in spirited debate but disavow the low tactics that distract Americans from the most important issues facing our country.” At...
