Our lady of snuff films

Crazy Catholic Mel Gibson has always kind of rubbed me the wrong way. Now I have a reason. (Please note: I am not seeking to insult Catholics with this tirade because I was raised Catholic. I will from hereon in be making disparaging comments about CRAZY CATHOLICS, the kind who build their own church in Malibu because the local churches already in existence in their area aren't strict enough.) Never mind the fact that the man made millions making a snuff film about Jesus. Never mind the fact that his father is an established Holocaust denier and rampant anti-Semite. I realize that it is not fair to judge a person by the behavior of their parents (if it were, I would still be apologizing for my dad's screaming match with an Air France gate agent sometime in the 1980s and his debaucherous behavior from 1970 until today). However, you know what they say about apples and trees.

I would like to point out, in an attempt to be fair, the original source for this story was TMZ, which, if I am not mistaken, is not the most reliable source for entertainment news.

Of course, my favorite coverage of this whole debacle are the comments from US Weekly blog. I'm so glad that Mike from Sheboygan (which is probably spelled wrong and guess how much I give a crap?) still likes Mel "as an actor". My favorite quote -- and I'm sure you will all agree with me on this one -- is "Forget you ignorantes!" It's been a while since I took my SATs and my vocabulary isn't what it used to be so let me check the dictionary. Yep, not a word.

Completely off the topic but I am addicted to Youtube and find something new to entertain me on there EVERY SINGLE DAY. How did ANYONE, let alone Sharon Osbourne not know that Lance Bass was gay? Look at the little dog he is holding when he answers the door?
