Remembering characters from the 80s
G. I. Joe and Transformers were both ’80s television series specifically made to sell their toy lines, a slightly different path from the comics-turned-movies like “X-men,” “Spiderman,” “Hulk” and that ilk.

Barrett: If Kathleen says so!
OK, so you live in a state with a U.S. senator who isn’t sure whether he’ll vote to confirm a controversial nominee to a top spot in the Justice Department. The nominee, Dawn Johnsen, thinks opposing abortion is like supporting slavery.

Barrett: Silence on violence
In February 2008, the Times Free Press ran a news article on the silence from the Hamilton County school system regarding serious incidents in local schools, including rioting at Tyner Academy and youths trespassing with a loaded gun at the Howard School of Academics and Technology.

Barrett: Media Research Center's gala Thursday night in Washington, D.C.
WASHINGTON, D.C. -- OK, so there's something ironic about the fact that Mick Jagger's "Start Me Up" was playing as conservative critics of the liberal media gathered in Washington on Thursday evening for the Media Research Center's annual DisHonors Awards for the most biased journalism of 2008. Mr. Jagger's support of conservative causes is, shall we say, limited.

Trust Me: Blog - Double your pleasure, double your fun . . . chew on two
Sure, the economy’s not so chipper, the AIG guys are soaking us and the conflict in Afghanistan is showing signs of becoming the Forty Years War. But cheer up, Bunky!
