Find the factual error in this title: "Apple's iPod turns five."

T PITIES; “TA,” JEWELS


Mr. T is giving up his gold, out of respect for Katrina’s victims.
“As a spiritual man, I felt it would be a sin against my God for me to wear all that gold again...”



[...]

The former star of “The A-Team” said he’s about more than his rough-and-tough image.

“Yes, I am qualified to beat people up. But I am pretty intelligent,” he said. “That’s what throws people off. If you’ve been through something, that gives you an authority that you can speak on certain things. That’s why people relate to me. I pull no punches.”
Due to the aforementioned qualifications, mind you.

Me, I’m still on my learner’s permit.

That's My Boycott


Unfortunately, it is impossible for me to skip work today. So I can't participate in today's Day Without Immigrants. However, I can do the next best thing and initiate the Day Without Foreign Words.

For one day, this Day Without Foreign Words, I shall struggle to write and talk using only bland American English words. By doing so, I will highlight how people from other countries have enriched America and its language throughout our history.

I urge you to join me in this effort. Today, we can honor the struggle and the enterprise of our compadres by...

Oh, merde on a baton rouge.

Taxes and travel have kept me from squeezing out the rock for the past couple of weeks. I have been, shall we say, a bit rockstipated.

However, I do have a mix that is somewhat timely today. As of this week, we now have fewer than a thousand days left of the Best President Ever.

Protracted war. Nuclear threats. Rage in the Middle East. Soaring gas prices. Abuse of the Constitution. Improvised presidential powers. Surveillance of the citizenry. This guy. That guy. Hell, they're as great today as they were back in 1972.

At least these songs are, too.
