Good evening fellow Drudgaholics! This week...

• Our long national nightmare ended with a verdict in the Scott Peterson trial. Now there's nothing left but to figure out who'll play Gloria Allred in the TV movie.
• CBS axed a producer for daring to cut into CSI with actual news that Arafat was finally dead, but the same cannot be said for the one which presented fake news to Danno.
• "America's trade deficit is soaring and the once high-flying dollar has sunk to record lows against Europe's common currency. But the Bush administration has reacted with remarkable calm to developments that raise worries about a possible dollar crisis." [AP]
• Star Jones (AKA Bridezilla) finally got married
• Blair defies critics to stand by US alliance...
• "Can the new Band Aid beat £110m for Africa?" This must be the worst story of the year. The first one was bad enough...this is total, shameless elitism now. "Do they know it's Christmas?" Probably not. By and large, they're not Christians.
• And if one more idiot tells me I don't know music if I'm not listening to Joss Stone, I'm gonna slap 'em.
• I saw the CMA awards. Country's kind of like hip-hop. They even both have bling.
• Is Ashlee Taking Too Much Heat? -- check out the bottom. Whitney Houston's famous National Anthem performance was pre-recorded? I never knew that.
• Dick Clark's American Music Awards are underway. How many different tributes to ODB will be forthcoming...
• The CBS Category 6 movie! Decisions, decisions

But, what do I know. Comment on what you hear here!

[lainie]

It's 10 o'clock (almost) ping

[the invisib1e hand]

we know the medicine bottles are all tuned in.

[BradyLS]

Heh! Was just on another thread talking about that!

Good evening hostess! Everyone!

[BradyLS]

Do you get a special "talking points" list from Matt?

[A CA Guy]

That makes no sense. How much are they planning to charge for drugs if they are going to chip the bottle?

[mylife]

L0L! Matts all upset about having to wrap his aspirin in tinfoil :^)

[lainie]

nope, I just sit here and blabber all by my lonesome. Hi! (another thread talking about what?)

[A CA Guy]

Can there be anybody more ghetto than Star Jones with all the tacky ads?
SNL even did a bit about her husbands homosexuality.
They had a man playing Star Jones, the scary thing was he was prettier than her... LOL

[mylife]

Heya hostess!

[lainie]

FEDS TO PUT RADIO ANTENNAS ON MEDICINE BOTTLES
Food and Drug Administration and drug makers are expected to announce an agreement Monday to put tiny radio antennas on labels of millions of medicine bottles to combat counterfeiting, abuse and fraud... Developing...

wtf?

[mylife]

The chips cost squat. and the cost of manual inventory is far higher than using the RFID readers. actual costs will decline

[RonDog]

It seems that the audio-streaming from WABCradio.com is OFF-LINE, temporarily. :(

[A CA Guy]

These chips would not broadcast then and would be scanned instead.
So, who's planning on scanning America's prescribed medications?

[stockpirate]

Is it required to put the tin-foil on your head if you listen to Drudge on the radio?

[BradyLS]

Talking about the whole "Aspirin bottle radios."

[BradyLS]

What tacky ads?

[lainie]

She is so ridiculous. People have been saying all along he is only marrying her for her shoe collection but I wouldn't know :)

[lainie]

Howdy!

[mylife]

all scanning will occur at the point of sale just as with barcodes. it is just more efficient. Here is how it works

[A CA Guy]

Hi LAINIE, it's great Arafat is dead. I would have suggested they put a stake through the heart, then burn him to make sure he stays dead.

I don't like all these sources harping about the death of a GREAT MAN...
This was a major terrorist just like Bin Laden. So when we hear people cheering Arafat, it is as disgusting to me as people cheering Bin Laden.

[lainie]

Awwwwwwww that blows. (thanks for the info)

I see Drudge took it off the page, too. Oh well, we have to entertain ourselves for the next :45...

[mylife]

I listen to drudge every week L0L

[stockpirate]

I would to if I could find the time, but I do check out his site several times a day.

[lainie]

Arafat was no hero. He didn't even operate with his own peoples' best interests at heart, much less the outsiders.

[A CA Guy]

You missed one I bet Drudge talks about.

"Presbyterians un-investing in Jewish companies over the occupation of supposed Palestinian lands."

Total bullsh1t and bad form on the Presbyterian Church's part.

[Allan]

False advertising!
WABC's internet feed is out of commission for a few days.
No show until 10PM!!

[A CA Guy]

Exactly, he was a horrible terrorist who enriched himself more than doing anything else.

I'm sure all the dictators at the UN can relate.

[mylife]

so whats the next best stream available?

[ConservativeMan55]

Thanks for the ping!

[Allan]

KFI.

[mylife]

thanks

[bahblahbah]

I think I'll go out and buy counterfeit drugs if they resort to putting RFID on the labels.

[A CA Guy]

How about KFI 640AM Los Angeles?

[A CA Guy]

Many here in CA save money by taking their prescription bottle south of the border and filling 3 months worth then coming back.

Legally you may have 3 months of prescribed medicine from Mexico. Being the drugs are in prescribed bottles, many get away with it.

[mylife]

there is no "if" its going to be on everthing sold

[mylife]

Yup. People do it all the time

[TechJunkYard]

Yeah, looks like no NYC show tonight. Oh well.

I laughed at the Star Jones pre-wedding skit on SNL last night, no idea she was actually gonna do it. Is her fiance really as gay as was depicted?

[CedarDave]

Evening all -- very rainy here in SE NM. Just right for going indoors to our area's newest attraction: A casino and racetrack. Yep, our little town on the Texas border opened the casino at 1 p.m. to VIP's and those who registered on line. You don't have to travel 400 miles RT to get to the Indian one in the mountains anymore.

It employs 200 now and another 200 when the track is complete. Right across the street from the college, but they got an exemption for gambling and alcohol. No Indians around -- this is strictly big time Anglo investment.

I know about the stories of how it will hurt the local economy (folks will spend money here instead of going to restaurants, etc.) but since we don't have any restaurants except Bert's Burger Bar and Juan's Taco and Tamale joint, and no stores except Walmart and a half dead K-mart it won't be too bad. Talk is we may actually get a new restaurant or two -- a Red Lobster, Olive Garden, Outback or even a 24-hour Denny's would be nice

Got in with a VIP invite from my boss who was already there; grabbed a couple of free beers and a dozen shrimp and scarfed them down. Went to find him and his wife and they said they were up $600 on quarter slots. Put in my $10 and came away with $47. Loose slots the next couple of weeks and then I suspect they'll tighten them down.

Left just about two hours after I arrived and there was a line of headlights down the highway. Boss just came by the office and said they had to close down the place to new arrivals because the casino and parking lot were both overflowing!! Grand opening is tomorrow and it will probably be a repeat of today.

[lainie]

They're switching to WINDOWS format. Ugh!!!

[lainie]

I found that out at 6:15 too. :( No fair!!

So whatcha been up to?

[CedarDave]

They say they're switching from Real Audio to Windows Media.

[lainie]

"folks will spend money here instead of going to restaurants"

Everyone who sets out for one evening of fun at the blackjack tables is going to turn into a hopeless gambling addict!

;)

[CedarDave]

Non-Indian casinos in NM are limited to slots and horse racing (off and on track betting).

[lainie]

44 MEMBERS OF CUBAN TROUPE PLAN TO SEEK ASYLUM IN VEGAS... DEVELOPING...

[Cheapskate]

more WOD silliness!!!!

[lainie]

As many as 1,600 insurgents in Fallujah were killed so rapidly that streets were littered with 'alarming' number of bodies...

If it was that easy, why wasn't it done months (or at least weeks) ago?

[lainie]

Ah ok.. slots only. Isn't that a boring night at the casino? :)
