I’m a pig. Not in an “all women should be in the kitchen making me a pie” way, or the “good lord your personal hygiene is questionable at best” sort either. Frankly I can make my own pie, and I give my undercarriage a tremendous amount of attention shower-wise. Some might argue to a degree that I carry the task beyond mere maintenance, but frankly I feel any job worth doing is worth doing right.

So what sort of pig am I? I’m more of the “you are what you eat” kind. Simply put, I’ve ate me some pig. Growing up in Iowa it was a food group along with corn, meth, and natural light. Summers full of bacon sandwiches and corn on the cob, and cold as shit winter evenings eating enough ham and potatoes to send you into a mild yet non-responsive coma. And, as in any tiny, shitty Iowa town – the kind so small they don’t even have a grocery store – there were at least ten places to get a tenderloin sandwich. But that’s for a different episode, for now I’m simply establishing my credentials in terms of my porkucation.

Throughout the course of human history, men and women have done a lot of crazy things for love. Orlando Bloom caused the Trojan War, Cleopatra and Latin music sensation Marc Anthony both committed suicide, and I’ve sat through at least three episodes of my girlfriend’s favorite reality show, Jersey Shore.

The ongoing misadventures of carrot people Snooki, Pauly D, JWoww, The Situation, Vinny, Ronnie, and Sammi (my spell check just lost its friggin’ mind typing all of that) broke MTV records to become the highest viewed program in the cable network’s decreasingly illustrious history with 8.45 million viewers. Still, watching these unfathomably successful people preoccupy themselves with fighting, fucking, hot-tubbing, and other asinine, “who gives a shit?” circumstances that reality television twists into a botched, Frankenstein version of what the Greeks used to call drama always seems to engage that part of the brain that’ll start flashing sirens when you smoke a cigarette, huff a tube of industrial glue, or take a nap with your head inside the oven – I know this is really bad for me, but I’m going to do it anyway.

Jared Lee Loughner: It’s a name that will live forever in American infamy. The 22-year old was responsible for killing six people and injuring a further 14 on Saturday at a political gathering outside a supermarket in Tuscon, AZ. Among the dead was a Federal Judge and a 9-year old girl. Those wounded include Gabrielle Giffords, a Democratic member of the House of Representatives, who it’s understood was the focus of the attack. Loughner stood before a judge for the first time on Monday, facing multiple charges that will likely land him in jail for life or end in the death penalty.

It was ironic that just two days after the shootings took place, the Showtime network had a planned broadcast of Michael Moore’s 2002 Academy Award winning film Bowling for Columbine. The film focused on gun control and the lack thereof in the United States, and the tragic events leading up to the 1999 Columbine High School massacre that claimed 13 lives and injured a further 21 people. In the film, Moore went to great lengths to try to educate and inform the audience about how easy it is for guns to get into the hands of those with unstable minds.

The beauty expectation is a way of controlling women.”
– Shirley Manson

Fans of the ’90s alt-rock hitmakers Garbage will have to wait a wee bit longer for the long-awaited solo album from the band’s lead vixen Shirley Manson and maybe even longer for a new release from the group that brought us such hits as “Stupid Girl,” “Only Happy When It Rains,” “#1 Crush,” and “The World is Not Enough,” the theme from the James Bond film of the same name.
