Here's what's spinning around in Charlie's head today...
Who Ya Gonna Call? Remember the Stay Puft Marshmallow Man? He's probably not going to make a return appearance, but there is talk of reuniting Bill Murray, Harold Ramis and Dan Aykroyd for a new Ghostbusters flick.
Are they padding their retirement income? Probably... but it's got potential. The producers of NBC's The Office are writing the script.
Haven't We Seen Her Before? You can't go anywhere these days without seeing or hearing Republican VP candidate Sarah Palin.
A Fairly Unbalanced Political Source Now we can make an informed choice. Mug shot-a-riffic Lindsay Lohan has decided to grace us with her opinion on how to handle Republican VP Sarah Palin's pregnant teenage daughter. Read her stellar cutting edge insight on her MySpace blog. Or, you could learn more by reading the back of a box of Coco Puffs.
Alaskan Baby Mama Drama Ok, we know that Barack said family matters are not fair game, so we'll just do this once. Nervous looking Bristol, (right) the daughter of elephant-loving VP candidate and MILF wannabe Sarah Palin is preggers. Not sure that teeny pregnancies are part of that whole family values dealio.
In any case, they say she wants to marry the guy. So...if his last name was Myers, and they named their baby Squibb, the family could be just like pharmaceutical...
All Hail The Mighty Oprah! The Forbes list of the World's 100 Most Powerful Women is out. We'd like to share it, but Oprah ate it.
Just kidding. She comes in at #36. Hillary tops her at #28. The talking heads on TV news are all in the 60 range and First Lady Laura Bush takes a mediocre #44. Germany's Chancellor Angela Merkel is #1. Achtung Baby!
Can I Join Coldplay's Knitting Circle? Lead Singer and English bloke Chris Martin was recently quoted saying the group has knitting sessions as a way of forming unity within the band. He says everyone takes pot shots at them and they more things they do together, the better.
Can't...resist...another...pot...shot. What happens when you play Coldplay music backwards? You wake up and start becoming happier.
Ménage à Four? American Idol is adding a 4th judge next season. Kara DioGuardi is a songwriter that's written several songs for past Idol contestents.
Here's a basic TV math equation. Ratings drop + fading interest = change of formula. That usually means the beginning of the end, or the jumping of the shark. See: Cousin Oliver from The Brady Bunch.
Barenaked Ladies Are Indestructable The Barenaked Ladies are apparently trying to top each other with crazy headlines. Ed Robertson (right, not the coke guy) managed to walk away from a plane crash on Sunday in Ontario. WALK AWAY! He's a known flyboy, but its unclear if he was the pilot. In the meantime, Steven Page (left, the coke guy) is awaiting trial for powdering his nose.
I wonder what the three other guys in the band are gonna do?
The Effects Of Too Much TV & Video Games Best news story of the week. Two New York guys have been arrested for dressing up in fully loaded Ninja outfits with a message for drug dealers... "stop your impure activities." Check out the whole story, then keep an eye out for weapon wearing turtles this weekend.
