The Price is Right

High Gas Prices? Meet your enemy...the cars that runs on hopes and dreams.

Gasprices In a world where good and evil collide, one must battle to see who will come out on top.  Watch out Shell, Texaco and Chevron stations everywhere.  You are going to have a new enemy in 2010.  I'm letting you know now so that you can prepare your plan of attack.  Who's your new enemy? This guy right here.

That's right, VW is introducing a car that will get about 230 miles a gallon.  Now we can all plan those cross-country road trips we've been planning.  Except there's a catch.  You can't take anything with you because the car is tiny and you can only bring ONE other person along for the ride...and they'll have to sit behind you because that's where the other seat is.  But on the up side, you can pretend that you're in the movie Top Gun starring a pre-couch-hopping Tom Cruise.

But this isn't the only kind of car that will be in the market.  There's also one called the Aptera.  This bad boy is expected to get nearly 300 miles a gallon.  It looks like something out of the Jetsons, which frankly, frightens the hell out of me.  I know that a lot of people might be thinking, "But the Jetsons are cool, I'd love to live in a world like that."  Not me, no thank you.  I'm afraid of heights. All the buildings in the Jetsons appeared to be held up in air by magic.  The Jetsons don't live in a world that's friendly to acrophobia.

But back to the cars, who knows...maybe this is the wave of the future.  With cars that get 2 to 3 hundred miles a gallon, I'm glad that people are trying to make our gallons of gas last longer because let's face it, at the rate we're going, when these cars make their debut, gas MIGHT actually COST 200 dollars a gallon.

You Got To Be Kidding Me: New Host for "The Price is Right!"

158258188s So now that Bob Barker has retired as host of the Price is Right after like 35 years, CBS has decided to look for a new host.
Now I can see them trying to keep the show going. It's been on forever but I can't believe they offered the hosting job to  Rosie O'Donnell!!! You got to be kidding me! Rosie O'Donnell hosting the Price is Right. You know she'd be a funny host for about a week, and then she try to squeeze in her politcal material. Now I'm all for political material, but on the Price is Right?

She'll be like, "What's the price of the new SUV?" 
Contestant would be like, "26,650 dollars!"
"Wrong! Actually retail price - Our environment - cause this baby is a real gas guzzler."
Contestant - I thought it was 26,650?"
"No, that's the number of soldiers that had to die to give you the freedom to drive one of these SUVs!"

What's crazy is that the only reason she turned it down is because she wanted them to shoot the show in Miami where she lived. They refused so she declined. This is also retarded. Really? It's freaking hard to put the complex game board Plinko on a plane.

Look nobody can ever replace Bob. Maybe it's time to find a new game show - and Let Price is Right live on as an American Classic. Unless you guys out there have a better idea for a host. What do you think?
