Netflix Kills Plan To Split Off DVD Rentals To ‘Qwikster’

Netflix is in trouble, and panicking. I keep away from companies that can't make up their mind..especially when my money is involved.

So Marge wrote Barbara a letter in which she explained that she was “deeply hurt” by the criticism, and that she wasn’t sure why  Bush hadn’t given her family “the benefit of the doubt.”

Charlie Sheen vs Charlie Sheen: Who Will Win?

I have never jumped on the bandwagon to talk lengthy about Charlie Sheen when he was on his drunken (alegedly) rants. I do find it funny that the Comedy Central Roast of Charlie Sheen is on against 2 1/2 men on CBS. Maybe it was meant as a stunt, but a bad one I must admit. Everyone will be tuned into CBS to see what happens, how good Ashton Kutcher is taking over the part, what the kid looks like now that his voice changed, whether Jon Cryer is really a troll.
