Deepak Chopra gets honest on Twitter

I refuse to believe that Mr. Chopra’s account was hacked. After all, we must walk with those seeking truth and run from those that think they’ve found it.

Where’s the liberty?

It’s getting so Steven Seagal can’t even drive a tank into a house to kill a dog.

I may not love Israel as much as Glenn Beck says he does …

… but, unlike Beck and his Christian Zionist pals, I’m not praying for an apocalypse that will either convert Jews to Christianity or send them straight to Hell.

Kate Winslett is Batman

When not acting in movies and being universally beloved, Kate Winslett occasionally goes full Batman:

LONDON (AP) — Richard Branson says Academy Award-winning actress Kate Winslet helped rescue his elderly mother from a fire that destroyed his Caribbean home.

The Virgin Group boss said about 20 people, including Winslet, her children, and his mother were staying in the 8-bedroom Great House on Necker, his private isle in the British Virgin Islands when it was struck by lightning during a tropical storm early Monday.

Branson said no one was hurt. He said in his blog that he wanted to offer “many thanks to Kate Winslet for helping to carry my 90 year (old) mum out of the main house to safety.” He joked that Winslet “was wondering when a director was going to shout ‘CUT!’”

Matt Damon is cool

Matt Damon – whose stature is not to be questioned – stands up for teachers and stands up to Libertarian simple-think. How you like them apples?

Jon Stewart – He’s cool

Jon Stewart is a little, little man. I mean, look at the cartwheels the photographer went through to create an illusion of height? Because Stewart’s tiny. Like, almost make you feel a little uncomfortable tiny. Hobbits see eye-to-eye with him. But he has a big, big heart.

But in all seriousness, our favorite leftist political activist spent some time in Afghanistan this weekend, visiting and entertaining the troops.

The Daily Show with Jon Stewart’s Jon Stewart joined Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff, U.S. Navy Adm. Mike Mullen, along with NBA star Karl Malone and magician David Blaine for Mullen’s quick, unannounced weekend visit to the American soldiers serving in Afghanistan.

So yeah, he’s cool.

Shia LaBeouf – I tapped that

When I saw that Shia LeBeouf told the media that he had “hooked up” with Megan Fox, I was not surprised. After all, I have hooked up with him, as well

Yes, friends, I, noted comma user, William K. Wolfrum, have hooked up with Shia LeBeouf.

The first time was on the set of Indiana Jones and the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull. We both figured we’d never work again, so what the hell?

The next time I hooked up with Shia Lebeouf was on a cruise ship. We were with different people, but everyone on the cruise tries to get you to like everyone and you want to like everyone and they want to like you and, well, you know.

There was the time we just passed each other on the street when I wanted to congratulate him on his new career as a stock broker. (Interoil is down $15 since you were pumping it,  btw, Shia Lebeouf.)

Or when we worked as stock boys at a TJ Maxx. Hey, management encouraged us to get along.

There were other times, as well, but really who can remember all the hooking up one does. I’m sure Shia Lebeouf (he demands people always call him by his full name. It’s a little off-putting.) won’t mind me mentioning it. Maybe I should wake him up and ask him?

Anyway, let me just finish with this:

Shia LeBeouf – I tapped that.

Penis in Weiner pic to get Reality Show with Donald Trump

Hey, you heard it here first at the site that specializes in the hottest entertainment news! It seems The Penis in the Anthony Weiner Penis Pic Controversy has accepted a spot on a new reality show with Donald Trump!

The title of the show will be “Trump & The Junk”and highlight the pair’s wacky shenanigans around New York and the world, trying to raise awareness for Donald Trump.

“The Trump name needs to be associated with junk of this quality,” said a source close to Trump. ” It’s just the natural progression of things. Donald will ride this penis as long and as hard as he can.”

Sources said The Penis is excited working with Trump and that he feels the two share simple agendas. Sources add that The Penis is also thrilled to have a chance to show that he is more than just a media creation that has no basis in fact.

“He knows Trump comes with some baggage, but he’s willing to stick his neck out,” said the source. “He knows people are ready to see him in action.”

Elizabeth Taylor dead at age 79

Good Morning America has reported that actress Elizabeth Taylor has died at the age of 79. The Today Show has also reported the news, which is now being reported by all major news agencies.

Taylor’s death signals the end of Hollywood’s Golden Age, as well as the loss of one of the movie stars who ushered in the Gossip-laden coverage of Hollywood stars. Known as well for movies like “Cleopatra” and “National Velvet” as she was for her repeated marriages – nine in all, including three to actor Richard Burton – Taylor was the model movie star.

Last year, Vanity Fair published an article about Taylor and Burton’s love affair, titled “A Love Too Big To Last.”

Taylor was recently a patient at Cedars-Sinai Medical Center for treatment of congenital heart failure. She leaves behind four children, nine grandchildren, as well as a legacy of beauty and fame.

Taylor also leaves behind a legacy as a dogged fundraiser and advocate for AIDS awareness. Rocked by the death of her friend Rock Hudson from the disease, Taylor spent a great deal of time fighting for the well-being of HIV/AIDS patients around the globe. Taylor had a presence on Twitter, with one of her few tweets to her fans from July 22, 2010 reading:

No one is going to play Elizabeth Taylor, but Elizabeth Taylor herself.

Not at least until I’m dead, and at the moment I’m having too much fun being alive…and I plan on staying that way. Happiness to all.

Regardless of one’s opinions of Taylor’s personal life or acting ability, let there be no doubt she was one of the great cultural icons in American history.

According to GMA, a private family funeral for Taylor will be held later this week.

Donald Trump’s clown show

Showing his true colors as a publicity hound, Donald Trump has lately been making noises about running for President. The bankruptcy expert has been tooling about, talking himself up, while even throwing a bone to the Birthers by questioning Obama’s citizenship.

It’s all a ruse, of course.

Respect Jon Cryer

Jon Cryer isn’t all about winning. Jon Cryer is happy with a draw.

Jon Cryer’s best-known role as an actor was as Ducky. And he’s Ok with that.

If a neighbor asked Jon Cryer to pick up their mail while they were on vacation, Jon Cryer would do it. Maybe he’d miss a day, but he would never let the mail pile up.

Hardly anyone actually hates Jon Cryer. On the flip side, no one’s completely obsessed with him. And Jon Cryer thinks that’s Ok.

Jon Cryer is fun at parties but likes to leave early because he likes to get up fairly early.

Jon Cryer may not give you the shirt off his back, but he’ll make sure you have something to wear.

Jon Cryer is on a drug. It’s called Lipitor.

Jon Cryer once called a guy a jerk. But it’s ok. The guy was a jerk.

Because of Jon Cryer’s influence, Molly Ringwald never got overly upset when her career stalled not long after “Pretty in Pink.”

If a cat were stuck in a tree, Jon Cryer would call the fire department for help.

Jon Cryer once shotgunned a beer.

Jon Cryer gives good presents. Not great, but good. Like, he’ll get you a pretty nice watch that you’ll be happy with and wear.

If Jon Cryer were an element, he’d be Ruthenium, which is primarily used as an alloying agent.

Jon Cryer and his wife adopted a little girl. Which is a pretty nice thing to do.

Jon Cryer really thought that “The Famous Teddy Z” was going to be a huge hit, but he didn’t let it get him down too much when it was canceled.

Jon Cryer does his best to recycle.

Jon Cryer has never accidentally shot anyone, and doesn’t feel especially comfortable around guns.

Jon Cryer doesn’t believe the government had anything to do with 9/11, but he didn’t think attacking Iraq was that great of an idea.

Jon Cryer once went on a pot-fueled rampage, where he spent a whole week just watching TV, eating Dorritos, and playing Xbox. No porn stars came over, but he did watch part of a porn. Even then, he felt kind of bad about how the women in the porn were exploited. That’s just how Jon Cryer rolls.

Jon Cryer’s parents are quite pleased their son is Jon Cryer.

Jon Cryer is not an ego-maniac, and realizes he’s just an actor. But he feels comfortable being Jon Cryer.

Jon Cryer does not demand respect. But he thinks it would be nice if you gave him some. So respect Jon Cryer.
