Visors & Stovepipes

Did you see the ESPN GameDay season opener from South Carolina with the live performance by Big & Rich feat. Lil Troy? I did, unfortunately, and I feel violated. I'll elaborate later on the reasons for my disillusionment with ESPN, but it's time for a mutiny.

per Publius

There are no problems in this country that cannot be solved by a heaping spoonful of redneck patriotism.

Listerine Drunk

Hot: Taradise, Tara Reid's new show on E! I caught two episodes this weekend, and it totally rocks. Tara has put on some miles since we first fell in love with her as Bunny Lebowski in the 1998 hit The Big Lebowski.

Not: Galveston, Texas and Dodge Stratus cars. Sucks like OU, the both of them.

Smell the Roses

For my money, there's nothing more honest and refreshing than talking loudly on your cellphone in a crowded elevator.

Friendly Reminder

Hey gang, don't forget to file bankruptcy before October 17! If you dilly-dally, changes in bankruptcy law will make erasing debts more difficult.

The work week just flies by now that I loaded up my iTunes with Beehive 100 tracks.

Ultra-hip and underground

I'm nowhere to be found in August's edition of 002+ magazine. Obviously, I'm not partying nearly aggressively enough.

Red Carpet II

Have you seen Seann William Scott's portrayal of Bo Duke in The Dukes of Hazzard? Well, I haven't, but I can only assume it is one of the greatest theatrical performances of all time.

One Red Cent for Tribute

As you know, luridtransom is a Tara Reid Tribute Blog. Tara's beauty, sass and spark give us our one and only reason to get out of bed in the morning. In the spirit of tribute, I'm proud to promote Wild on Tara, Tara's new show on E!. The premiere is August 10th, and a source close to Tara says luridtransom faves Paris Latsis and Paris Hilton will make an appearance on the first episode. Be sure to tune in, I promise you won't want to miss it. In case you were wondering, the show's slogan is: "She's Improving World Relations...One Party at a Time!"

Would you like to leave a message, Mr. Daly?

Cancel my appointments and hold all my calls, I'll be watching Laguna Beach: Season One on DVD all week long.
