General Motors says it's on the road to recovery despite showing new losses. That's like saying that Abraham Lincoln's gunshot wounds are healing nicely now that he's dead.
Governor David Patterson released his New York fiscal report today. It's called "Going Broke".
When Sarah Palin arrived at Harpo Studios to tape her appearance with Oprah, she was shown to the Green Room. Palin remarked how nice it was that Oprah dedicated an entire room to saving the environment.
Sarah Palin said that she thought Katie Couric was trying to portray her in an unfavorable light. That doesn't take much effort when you're working with a dim bulb to begin with.
Sarah Palin told Barbara Walters that on a scale of 1 to 10, she'd give President Obama a 4. Of course, Barbara was talking about Obama's presidential performance, but Palin was talking about that picture of the president with his shirt off.
Sarah is appearing on the cover of Newseek dressed in running shorts. I think there's a subliminal message there: if she enters the 2012 presidential race, once again she's going to run short.
Last night, Keith Olbermann discussed Sarah Palin's book, Going Rogue, and reported that he'd found 12 lies. Tonight on Olbermann: Chapter Two.
The American Cancer Society is upset because a government task force says that most women don't need a mammogram until the age of 50. Hey, it's the government saying this and who would know more about mammograms than a bunch of boobs?

Today's Jokes by Wendel Potter
When Sarah Palin showed up on the Oprah Winfrey Show to plug her new book, she was wearing a little too much makeup on her cheeks. See, Sarah thinks the title of her book is Going Rouge.
Levi Johnston, the father of Sarah Palin's grandson, is baring all for Playgirl magazine. I heard that they're calling the photo shoot "Turkey Undressing".
In Colorado, the parents of the Balloon Boy admitted in court that the whole story about their son being in that runaway balloon was a publicity stunt. However, they said the boy will actually be in the balloon when it flies down 7th Avenue during the Macy's Thanksgiving Day Parade.
Former Miss California Carrie Prejean threatened to walk off Larry King Live the other night. She returned to her seat after she found out that a King overrules a Queen.
Carrie Prejean has been back in the news admitting that she appeared in a sex tape that has recently been made public. Apparently the tape shows Ms. Prejean engaged in a solo sex act.
She claims it was part of a study to determine if a California woman can feel a vibrator during an earthquake.
In order to generate business in this economy, Las Vegas hotels are offering incredibly low room rates. Which makes it a wash because in this economy, Vegas hookers are now charging double.
