There are so many Chihuahuas at shelters in Oakland, they have started shipping the dogs out of state, said Megan Webb, director of Oakland Animal Services. They have sent about 100 to Washington, Oregon and Arizona, she said, "and as soon as they get them, they are ready for new ones." Chihuahuas make up 30 percent or more of the dog populations at many California shelters. And experts say pop culture is to blame, with fans imitating Chihuahua-toting celebrities like Paris Hilton and ...
She's the biggest celebrity in the world...but is she ready to lead? Everyone wants to talk to her, and if they can't do that, they talk about her. Let's face it, Meghan McCain is everywhere -- and I doubt she's going away any time soon. That's quite an impressive accomplishment, especially considering she was soundly defeated by Sasha and Malia in last year's race for first daughter (I kid, I kid...). Yet she has managed to break free from her father and establish herself as an independent national figure -- notifying the world that she is a very savvy and intelligent young lady. Yet, I can't ...
Update: Huffpo's Ben Mishkin points out something I didn't notice; 3 major outlets were on the call today, and they were buying the frame, if not the picture. The McCain campaign has come up with one of the weirdest campaign ads I've ever seen, and it's the culmination of the GOP's counter-intuitive strategy to mock someone for being better than themselves. This one is called "Celebrity," and it prefaces several false or misleading attacks by showing just how universally Barack Obama is admired, while trying to diminish that by juxtaposing images of Paris Hilton and Britney Spears: Announcer: ...
Some 'family business' during the lockout seemed to sap any game that Jose Theodore had. The once-upon-a-time-MVP-like goaltender dropped from a sweet 91.9SV% before the lockout to a paltry 88.1SV% after the NHL rebooted, spurring his trade from Montreal to Colorado. Being caught out cheating with skanky Paris Hilton certainly didn't help him much (note to guys: Pink shirts never work, mmkay?), nor being caught with a steroid masking agent in his blood.Lately, however, Jose Theodore has been showing some flashes of his former self, and has been helping the Avs win some games in the absence of ...
The 2007 NASCAR seasons is in the book and oh ... the memories and monotony. I will remember it most as the year Dale Earnhardt Jr. left the company his father started, Jimmie Johnson and Chad Knaus dominated and the season droned on in the car of tomorrow. Here are the Top 35 things I will remember most about the 2007 NASCAR Season, in (mostly) chronological order: 1. AOL Sports welcomed NASCAR into the Fanhouse 2. Mark Martin didn't win the Daytona 500 3. Michael Waltrip Racing's Intake Gate 4. Washington State dissed NASCAR fans 5. Juan Pablo Montoya won in Mexico 6. Car of Tomorrow debuted ...
Every day from Monday to Saturday, The Ice Sheet will take a look at the biggest stories in the league that happened on the ice and elsewhere the night before.Wait, Jose Theodore Did What?The incredible decline of Colorado Avalanche goalie Jose Theodore's reputation has been well-documented. Winning the Hart and Vezina trophies, and then ending up as a $6 million bench-warmer, with the stats to match. Propecia-gate before the Olympics. His public tryst with noted scholar Paris Hilton.Last night, all of that was back-burnered, if at least for a game. After the Calgary Flames chased Avs starter ...
Hollywood rolled out the red carpet for NASCAR Nextel Cup drivers last night at The Avalon.Jeff Gordon, Juan Pablo Montoya, David Gilliland, Denny Hamlin, David Stremme, Carl Edwards and Reed Sorenson rubbed shoulders with such Hollywood er, ... elite ... as Melissa Rivers, Adrienne Frantz, Alana Curry and Kelly Kruger.Impressive. NASCAR ought to be huge out here in no time.NASCAR's newest fan, Paris Hilton, also came out to celebrate with the boys and appears to have hit it off with Hamlin this time around after not having much luck with Kasey Kahne. The driver and heiress posed for ...
This week's Sports Illustrated has a profile of Cowboys owner Jerry Jones. The profile doesn't break a whole lot of new ground -- it mostly goes over the big investment Jones is making in the Cowboys' new stadium -- but here's one tidbit I didn't know:As a 23-year-old in 1966, (Jones) nearly bought the San Diego Chargers from Barron Hilton with money he didn't have. (Jones had arranged for a letter of credit from a labor union.) "You sure are young," Hilton told Jones.The sale didn't go through, but we could ask a lot of hypothetical questions about Jones buying the Chargers -- how might pro ...
In our lifetimes there are events that rarely happen. If we're lucky, we might get to experience them at least once in our lives. Like Haley's Comet, or Paris Hilton going to jail (Actually, we got that twice didn't we? Thanks, God!).On Wednesday night, one of those rare life-changing moments took place.Jason Kendall hit a home run.I'll allow you all a moment to compose yourselves after such a shocker.Of course you're all aware that Kendall hadn't homered since May 31st. Of last season. That's 157 games, and 619 at bats between home runs. Now, Kendall has never been a home run hitter, but his ...
As a White Sox fan, the last two and a half weeks or so have really sucked. Not like, "Oh man. That's too bad." sucked. I mean soul sucking sucked. Even back before the White Sox won a World Series in 2005, if they were having a bad year, I could still watch them. I might not have enjoyed it very much, but I could watch.I can't watch this team anymore. They're horrible right now. They're 2-12 in their last 14 games! They've only scored 43 runs in those fourteen games. Meanwhile they've allowed 86 during the same span.I just can't take it anymore, if I keep watching this team I may end ...
