This is ridiculous. I don't care what these scientists say, or how many juvenile delinquent files they rummaged, I'm calling a major foul on this right here:
Boys in the United States with common names like Michael and David are less likely to commit crimes than those named Ernest or Ivan [...] Results show that, regardless of race, juveniles with unpopular names are more likely to engage… Read More
Blago is on a media tour this week, acting like he just put out a new book or something. As if his situation isn't all F'd up.

"I'm a blind man who who loves cocaine, who was suddenly appointed governor of New York. My life is an actual plot from a Richard Pryor movie."
