She quit acting and then did what for a living? Worked at Starbucks? Puh-lease. She's made boat for the rest if her life and can do whatever she wants. She probably makes money while she's sleeping. Can't take a little negative publicity so you're going to go into seclusion? Rich people's problems …

It would be Alanis ironic.

Real ironic would be if some poor innocent man who looks and dresses like Zimmerman were followed down the sidewalk and gunned down solely because of his appearance.

Take your prepaid card to the cash register at Walmart, buy a Slim Jim, and ask for $50 cash back. Problem solved.

So glad Sandra Bullock is past her serious actress phase and back into Miss Congeniality/Demolition Man territory.

Istanbul is a giant city, as big as London or New York metro. You won't be able to see the city in a day. Aside from it not being 100 percent safe right now, I'd also advise waiting until you have a week to tour around.

That's what deductions are for. Make'em fill out a return like the rest of us.

Not necessarily. The Supreme Court upheld the constitutionality of church tax exemptions in 1970 based on such privileges enjoyed by all non-profits. If California can strip tax exempt status from scouts, it can strip them from churches too. http://ffrf.org/faq/state-chur…

Stupid parents. They should have used a plastic kennel so people can't see in.

I'm guessing Jezebel only has access to the video, which can't be used as a photo at the top (which would also be auto-resized and used as a thumbnail up front.) Technically, the site could use a still from the video as the thumbnail, but there are the questions of rights and whether anyone working on the weekend is…

Sorry, no. That's Téa Leoni in a wig.

Great question, and you're not being a bastard at all. Angelina Jolie's decision is viewed as more brave because it affects how both her male and female fans view her. They'll be studying her on the red carpet to see how she might have changed. There will be stories written about how her mastectomy impacts the kind of…

Aeropress, a burr grinder, a Magic Bullet blender to whip the hot milk for 10 seconds: my morning routine.

Bill Hader is one funny SOB. I'd take him over two John Belushis, three Dan Ackroyds, and a half a Chevy Chase any Saturday night.

Take it away, Stefon!

In the opinion of the police officer, she was obstructing justice. Whether or not the charges stick is a decision of the court. In the meantime, an intoxicated woman was prevented from staggering into oncoming traffic. Well played, officer.

I loved Pleasantville too. When Jeff Daniels wipes away Joan Allen's monochrome makeup, it gets me every time.

My first impression of Reese Witherspoon was formed by "The Election " and reinforced by "Pleasantville." She sets her chin a certain way and let's rip on you. America's Sweetheart? I think you have her confused with Amy Adams.

You can achieve this by just moving about 500 miles westward.

One thing the Founding Fathers could do with their guns is challenge people who disrespected them to a duel at high noon. That's an American gun tradition that deserves a second look.

When all else fails, it's good to know there's always Option Number Two.
