Syrian diplomat Jihad Makdissi speaks with CNN's Anderson Cooper about the claims of the Syrian government.
In an interview, surprisingly not foriegn, Bronson Pinchot, of Perfect Strangers fame, told some very candid stories of working with some of hollywood's elite. He goes on talk about what an asshole Denzel Washinton is, but the highlight of interview is his memories of working with Tom Cruise on Risky Business.
On Risky Business:
We thought Tom [Cruise] was the biggest bore on the face of the Earth. He had spent some formative time with Sean Penn—we were all very young at the time, Tom was 20, I was 23. Tom had picked up this knack of calling everyone by their character names, because that would probably make your performance better, and I don’t agree with that. I think that acting is acting, and the rest of the time, you should be you, but he called us all by our character names. He was tense and made constant, constant unrelated homophobic comments, like, “You want some ice cream, in case there are no gay people there?” I mean, his lingo was larded with the most… There was no basis for it. It was like, “It’s a nice day, I’m glad there are no gay people standing here.” Very, very strange.
Same thing with Eddie Murphy—I remember somebody calling and saying, “You’ll never guess who was just caught with a transvestite!” [Laughs.]

I'm not going to lie, I laugh everytime I read or think about, "It’s a nice day, I’m glad there are no gay people standing here." Cruise's repressed sexual desires and frustration must be so high. I can only assume he is like a good vampire, trying his best to live on animal blood and not killing humans. Then every so often breaks down and kills like 70 humans in an orgy of blood and carnage. Except replace humans with dudes, and blood and carnage with seman and leather. Also there is no way he doesn't kill and dispose of every male hooker he uses. No chance he is going to take a chance on some queen singing to the press.

Opening Day is tomorrow, so it has to be him right?
This pic reminds me of a couple of my favorite Kenny Powers' quotes:
"I'm the man who has the ball. I'm the man who can throw it faster than fuck. So that is why I am better than everyone in the world. Kiss my ass and suck my dick... everyone"
"Sure, I've been called a xenophobe, but the truth is, I'm not. I honestly just feel that America is the best country and the other countries aren't as good. That used to be called patriotism. "
"A lot of people ask me, 'Kenny Powers, you're a giant superstar. You can get any woman. Have you ever paid for sex?' And the answer is yes, I have. Several times, in fact. And it's actually kinda cool. You can negotiate practically anything and sometimes, even just kind of do stuff in the moment that you never agreed to pay for and it goes by without much argument."
"Alright, so let me get this straight. So I gotta pay for a blow job, and I gotta pay for a fuckin' hotel room too? Well that seems like I'm spending too much money for nothin' I got a house. You can just get your ass over and we could just do the blow job here. And can I wear the 'SCREAM' mask? The mask from 'SCREAM' while I do you from behind. Hello? Hey?"
"So, in closing, I'd like to give big ups to God, Buddha, L. Ron, whoever. Hell, maybe I just need to thank me. If there's one thing I've learned through all my adventures and conquests, it's that some people are just wired for success. I had no choice when it came to being great. I just am great. I'm not trying to sound cocky or full of myself, but Kenny Powers has a sneaking suspicion that no matter what comes his way he will always be great. Because that's just the way shit works sometimes. This has been based on a true story. The motherfuckin' end. "

Paul Wolfowitz and Robert Baer discuss ways that the U.S. might help the Libyan opposition.
The last high rise of Cabrini is coming down, finally. As a kid and even now I took some weird pride in Chicago having such a famous housing project. It was a legendary place and any fame is good fame I guess. Either way I hear there is new Target coming! If you have never seen the 'Gangland' on Cabrini it is one of the best ones, but im pretty sure they ripped of a bunch of their shit from the guys who made the above video. This video has been out for a while, made as a trailer for a feature length documentary about Cabrini, the makers were from Cabrini themselves. Surprise, no feature ever came out. I mean who knows what could have happened, they were black males from Cabrini between the ages of 18-24, they had like a 7% chance of becoming 25. The video is 7 minutes of heaven though, so enjoy as as we pour one out for Cabrini.
