"ATLANTA - For the first time, an influential government panel is recommending a vaccination specifically for smokers. The Advisory Committee on Immunization Practices decided yesterday that adult smokers under 65 should get pneumococcal vaccine. It protects against bacteria that cause bacterial pneumonia. Smokers are about four times more likely than nonsmokers to suffer pneumococcal disease."

"The R&B singer has christened herself “Sasha Fierce” for her new double album, “I Am ... Sasha Fierce,” due in stores on Nov. 18, and has released a lengthy justification for the comical moniker. 'I have someone else that takes over when it’s time for me to work and when I’m on stage, this alter ego that I’ve created that kind of protects me and who I really am,' she said in a statement. 'Sasha Fierce is the fun, more sensual, more aggressive, more outspoken side and more glamorous side that comes out when I’m working and when I’m on the stage.'”
Wtf? Career implosion in T minus 3 . . . 2 . . .
Shanks and praise: WWTDD?

Jon Stewart takes a well-deserved shot at some of my least favorite people in the world - talking heads.

Every day we give Shanks and Praise, and many of you ask us - why do you do, what's in it for you? Some of you know it's because we have big hearts. Others know it's because we can't be held down by the man. Still others ... well, sorry that I forgot my wallet and couldn't pick up that check.
Here's your chance to help us to help you give back to the community, in a form that is undeniable, and unstoppable, and cheap -- all you can eat pizza. You see, we think the future goes far beyond the internets, to a place Pizza Hut, Dominos, Papa John's call home. Will you join us on our journey?
Shanks and Praise to CiCi's, pick up that guitar and talk to me.
I have always been a fan of the Scrubbing Bubbles - energetic and exuberant, yet mild mannered - they are a lot less creepy than the Keebler Evles.
Bored with searching for new friends on Facebook, I decided to look up some old friends. Much to my surprise, these industrious bubbles have been busy.
Apparently, I'm not their #1 super-fan. Shanks and praise to Props and Pans
it's really about the artiste. Write that down.
