• Bust Out the Doc Martens and Flowy Skirts: The Lilith Fair is Back

  Go ahead, pretend you didn't spend the better part of the nineties singing Sarah McLachlan songs in the shower, but we know better. And if you were as young and poor and uncool as we were, you may have spent the last ten years of your life regretting the fact that you never made it to the Lilith Fair to catch McLachlan, Missy Eliot, Bonnie Rait, Erykah "On and On" Badu, Lisa "You Say I Only Hear What I Want To" Loeb, Paula "Where Have All the Cowboys Gone?" Cole, Meredith "Bitch" Brooks*, Meshell Ndegeocello, The Cowboy Junkies, and so many, many more amazing female performers. But, after a ten-year hiatus, the Lilith Fair is back. Well, it will be back. In 2010. Terry McBride, chief executive of Nettwerk Music Group made the announcement via Twitter over the weekend. And that's the good news. The bad news? Read More...

• FYI, Leslie Out-Nakeds the Naked Cowboy

  We're calling out the Times Square-tourist-photo-fixture Naked Cowboy on false advertising. He's not naked at all; he wears tighty whiteys, a cowboy hat, and boots. He may even sport multiple pairs of tightey-whiteys at once, depending on the season. Naked Cowboy may be guilty of overexposure (so we shan't even run his photo here), but not nudity.  The Austin cross-dressing vagrant Leslie Cochran (above), on the other hand, is a lot closer to nakey.

• Fun With Wikipedia: Mammary Intercourse

  Sometimes, when we read Wikipedia we think to ourselves "why don't they just call a spade a spade? What's the point of mis-educating the public?" But that's what the Urban Dictionary is for we guess, and also, apparently, Wikipedia audio, which offers an enlightening tutorial on "mammary intercourse." Read More...

• Go The Extra Yard: Join Team Schmuck

  There are so many jokes that we could trot out right now (i.e. "Hell, all politicians are schmucks, why not a real Schmuck?")  A candidate for Arizona legislator is finding that his supporters are having their yard signs stolen in alarmingly high numbers. True, typical elections feature some degree of vandalism and theft, but Frank Schmuck's campaign posters are disappearing faster than he can print them... Schmuck, a decorated Gulf War veteran and Air Force Academy graduate, wondered why people are focusing on his signs....  Read More...

• Wikipedia's Got Porn On It?

  Apparently people are getting pissed that Wikipedia -- the first encyclopedia composed entirely of committe-approved electronic conjecture -- has entries for things like "fluffer" and "striptease" (pictured above). Come on, folks, be reasonable. It ain't like there are entries for... um... well, how about... a-ha... well... certainly not... nope, they got that too. Yikes. Really putting the "Oh!" in "Web 2.0," huh?

• Wikipedia Dumping Story Gets Even Weirder

  Jimmy Wales, the socialite co-founder of Wikipedia, dumped girlfriend, Canadian neoconservative TV personality Rachel Marsden, via Wikipedia entry. But the story just gets more and more absurd, to the point where every twist and turn is sure to be a "disputed" and possibly "removed" entry one day... First, a quick rundown of the facts and the rumors: 1) Jimmy met Rachel via the interwebs when her Wikipedia entry became a battleground for her supporters and detractors.   2) Valleywag claims Jimmy told Rachel, via IM, that he had to finish cleaning up her page before they got naked: "Because the last thing I want to do is take a break from f***ing your brains out all night to work on your Wikipedia entry :)" More sordid details after the jump...

• What We Learned About on Wikipedia Today: Teabagging

  We can't tell you how many times a day people ask us for the definition and history of teabagging. When this happens, we always refer them to Wikipedia. See, it's not just for information on Jonestown or the Vietnam War. You can also read up on all manner of sexual humiliation. We don't have to tell you how important mastery of public sexual humiliation is, you learned that at your first keg party.
