So this is the first WTF World of 2012. Should be a good one, right? Probably won’t be. I’m pretty under prepared. I’m still trying to figure out if I should change the mix for this column or not. Also, I’m currently unemployed. I start a new job next Monday or Tuesday but right now, for the first time about 10 years I don’t have anything to say when people ask me my current employer. Which happens a lot, you know, at the bar, the bus stop, in the grocery checkout line, identifying yourself to local authorities because of some crazy court order. The usual stuff.

For the mean time though I’ve got to write this column, even though it’s 3:00 pm, I haven’t been awake that long, I also (typical) should have had some coffee and didn’t and now I’m just plugging away at this thing.

Nick Cannon was hospitalized today with kidney failure. That’s all the research that I’m going to do about this. I can only assume that he drinks too much and is now paying the price of years of partying on Nickelodeon’s dime and then marrying rich and being famous for no good reason. He’s like a less talented Tyler Perry sort of. Think about that. I’m now going to make fun of Nick Cannon and Mariah Carey in this photo.

These two people are supposed to be adults. In fact (once again, this isn’t researched) Mariah Carey has to be over 40. Nick Cannon is maybe 30? Why is he wearing that terrible hat? Is it terribly cold in that hospital? Mariah Carey climbing into the hospital bed to pose with her wonderful man looks like a photo I would take of my 15 year old cousin cuddling with her high school sweetheart after he broke his arm in the big game. Except there is no big game. There’s just kidney failure, probably caused by too much booze.  ↓ Read the rest of this entry…
