In a year worthy of your rage, metal delivered in spades. What with the economy circling the drain and Sarah Palin coming down from the tundra and then refusing to go back, 2008's been the kind of year that really makes you want to smash your head into walls or punch random strangers in the face. Good thing there were so many awesome records available to serve as a soundtrack for exactly that kind of behavior. The ten discs below are just the tip of a very big, very heavy iceberg. Metal seems t
December 18, 2008Worst Lyrics of 2008
And now it's time for the "I love you like a fat kid loves cake" memorial Worst Lyrics of 2008, March Madness-style tournament, this year a terrifying mélange of appalling oral-sex requests, bargain-bin philosophies, grammatical atrocities, and cringe-inducing pillow talk. To elevate the drama, I provided a trusted colleague with the 16 artists who qualified and had him assign seeds--Lil Wayne you expect to go deep into a showdown like this, but Lucinda Williams? Some fantastic match-ups resul
December 19, 2008Hitsville: The Year in Music, by the Numbers
You don't need a half-wit music critic to tell you it's been a remarkable year for America, one historians will be discussing and researching for centuries to come. War, financial collapse, politics, technology: All have been dinner-table topics for many Americans. Racial barriers in 2008 were demolished by a Midwestern black man, and gender barriers were hurdled by an Arkansan and an Alaskan.Democracy has a few awesome new dance moves rolling into the Obama presidency, and it'll be a feast fo
December 24, 2008Coral Ridge Surrenders; Jack Seiler Explains
The church that D. James Kennedy built is waving the white flag in the culture war -- just in time for Barack Obama's inauguration. By hiring 36-year-old Tullian Tchividjian -- Billy Graham's grandson -- Coral Ridge Presbyterian has all but surrendered its right-wing, homophobic agenda. Oh sure, it'll still flare up from time to time, but the days of Kennedy's overbearing, right-wing, homophobic, hate-drenched sermons are over. The headline over Jawe

November 13, 2008Conservatives Rise Up, Hit Local Streets
This week, even his most ardent haters had to be stunned at Rush Limbaugh's remarkable political sway. The conservative radio host, who broadcasts from a "bunker" in Palm Beach, got an "Obama bump" when the prez dissed him publicly, casually remarking that Republicans ought to stop listening to his show. Turns out, the president's words may have had the opposite effect. Days ago, Michael Steele, chairman of the Republican National Committee, agreed that Limbaugh didn't deserve much attenti

January 17, 2008And Now a "Fair and Balanced" a Report From Yesterday's Tea Party
Flickr user: Sweet CarouselHey, remember that delightful Coral Springs lady who took a shine to Sarah Palin, launched a blog for her, and -- perhaps because this was so patently absurd -- received some media coverage for it? And then some media coverage about that media coverage? Well, you won't believe this, but she was at the tea party thing yesterday. If that shocked you, then you'll be flabbergasted to know she pronounced it a "huge success." A bit of hyperbole, that. Success = a bunch of si
April 16, 2009Can Florida Governors Save GOP From Its Self-Destructive Impulses?
Flickr User: marsdencartoonsMaybe Rush Limbaugh doesn't spend enough time in his Palm Beach home. Because clearly, there's no path back to political relevance for the Republican Party that does not include winning back Florida. And yet the two figures who have the most credibility on that front, governors Jeb Bush and Charlie Crist, are being tossed aside by the radio personality turned voice of the party as well as by others on the party's far right.During a time when Limbaugh was preaching his
May 11, 2009World-Renowned Poll Cruncher Awed by Crist's Popularity
No true political wonk goes 24 hours without checking fivethirtyeight.com, except maybe the people in Congressman Kendrick Meek's senatorial campaign, because seriously, campaigns run on hope.Last week, the site's wunderkind blogger, Nate Silver, devised a new metric (always with the metrics, this one) for analyzing a governor's popularity. Silver took the governor's approval rating from the most recent three polls, then built in a set of expectations: that governors of large states are less pop
June 8, 2009Air Sex is Better Than No Sex
Flickr.com Like air guitar, but with different fake instruments. But no air sex--that's the worst of all. And right now South Florida is effectively air-sex celebate. (Don't get me started on the air-religious groups.) What is this "air sex," you ask? "It's a lot like air guitar, but replacing the guitar with sex," says Chris Trew, one of the organizers of the Air Sex World Championships. Competitors essentially mime sex to music, often with a funny narrative involved. One woman

RBerteigIf the website NoGovernmentHealthcare.com is any indication, the group of conservative folks who organized the local version of the nationwide "tea parties" have become emboldened by the turnouts they've drawn. Now they are fighting Obama's plan to move toward nationalized health care. If they have their way, they'll become the anti-MoveOn.org. Already, local blogger/Sarah Palin supporter Daria DiGiovanni and friends showed up to protest at Congressman Robert Wexler's office July 2 (they
July 7, 2009A Maverick Match Made in Republican Heaven
Flickr User: flsurfkarmaMarco RubioAfter Charlie Crist annihilated Marco Rubio in the most recent round fund-raising for the U.S. Senate campaign, the boyish former House Speaker needs a Gamechanger. You know, someone who can bolster his maverick persona. Maybe someone who, like Rubio, gives Republicans hope that there's a younger, more attractive generation of GOP who are bold enough to upset the old guard.Enter Sarah Palin. The recently turned ex-governor of Alaska may be toxic to Democrats bu
July 15, 2009Cheap Wine That Doesn't Suck: Good, Cheap Pinot
Photo by Flickr user chickeninthewoodsCheap pinot noir is a moron. Cheap, good pinot noir is an oxymoron. Pinot noir, you see, is the Sarah Palin of grapes -- flighty, erratic, unpredictable, hard to handle -- though unlike the nitwit from Wasilla, the result can be anything but simple and stupid. It's that ornery nature that demands exceptional skill from the winemaker, not to mention exceptional fruit, typically produced from low-yielding vines planted in limited areas
July 20, 2009Screw Raw Food, Author Says, Because Cooking Made Us Human
You may have thought cooking was just a way to get something to eat. Actually, it's why homo sapiens developed bodies strong enough to bench-press a dump truck and brains that could create incomprehensible "financial instruments" to sell to widows and orphans and crash the world economy like a drunken NASCAR driver. Oh, and you raw-food types? If our ancestors paid any attention to you, we'd be a bunch of 98-pound weaklings with the energy of a tree sloth and the cognitive powers
August 5, 2009Crist's Bulldog in Lipstick
George LeMieux: Looks better in a skirt than in a U.S. senator's seat.Citing a Marco Rubio campaign ad, St. Petersburg Times politics blog Buzz earlier today asked whether Charlie Crist had "pulled a McCain" -- committing a tactical blunder that gives his opponent evidence that he's out of touch and unfit to lead.Purely from the headline, Juice assumed that the paper was referring to McCain's disastrous tapping of Sarah Palin as a running mate one year ago. By selecting George LeMieux for U.S
September 9, 2009Frank "The Fist" Ortis Tells Nation's Mayors to Play Nice
That's video from August 29, when Pembroke Pines Mayor Frank Ortis climbed in the ring with NFL Hall of Fame linebacker Lawrence Taylor. Considering that LT could have crushed Ortis' skull with one swing, I suppose we shouldn't be surprised that the rolly-polly mayor is an advocate of civility and good sportsmanship.In an op-ed that he wrote for the San Antonio Express-News, Ortis called on the mayors attending this past weekend's Congress of Cities to keep the political punches above the waist
