POPSRemembering Charlie Brown Entertaining and humourous article that pays homage to Charles Schulz's Charlie Brown. My favorite :) Like Groening, I too used to spend hours drawing Peanuts cartoons because they "looked" easy. I loved Snoopy! I wanted a beagle before I knew that they were crazy dogs. I owned a Snoopy snowcone machine - which they re-released and I saw at Urban Outfitters. I had thing for Schroeder. Thanks a million Charles Schulz!

POPS2006 International Snow Sculpture Championships The site has many more pictures from previous years, plus a video (which I couldn't clip) showing how they make the blocks for the sculptors. I don't which is more difficult, snow carving or sand carving. But they can both look magnificent!

POPSDemocrats Sue Michigan G.O.P. on Voter Issue The Michigan GOP is drawing up plans to challenge residency eligibility at the polls, by combing the home foreclosure records. It's not bad enough that these unfortunate people were thrown out of their homes due to foreclosure, but now their right to vote is going to be unduly challenged. This group is willing to do anything to make sure poor and working class people who mostly vote for the Democratic candidates, do not get to actually vote.

POPSAbout body image, fashion and then some science... one more: "However, Thompson's study of optical illusions casts doubt on another piece of popular wisdom. He believes that the standard advice from estate agents to show off your house with clear, uncluttered rooms is wrong. Filling up rooms with furniture should make them appear slightly bigger than they actually are, he said. Patterned wallpaper has the same effect."

POPSSNL Parody Of Palin and Clinton: Michael Phelps Hosts "I believe that diplomacy should be the cornerstone of any foreign policy," she said. "And I can see Russia from my house," Fey's Palin replied. Poehler continued, "I believe global warming is caused by man." "And I believe it's just God huggin' us closer," Fey responded. "What an amazing time we live in to think that just two years ago, I was a small-town mayor of America's crystal meth capital, and now I am just one heartbeat away from being the President of the United States," Fey chirped. "It just goes to show that anyone can be President - all you have to do is want it," Fey continued, prompting a cackle from Poehler. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PBFk9XC3YLs PHOTOS: WHICH CELEBS COULD PLAY PALIN? http://www.nydailynews.com/entertainment/galleries/which_celeb_could_play_palin/which_celeb_could_play_palin.html

POPSStill No Exit "Mr. Obama has offered a sensible blueprint for quickly drawing down American troops in Iraq and bolstering the fight in Afghanistan. After a befuddling silence, Mr. McCain on Tuesday finally agreed that more troops are needed in Afghanistan. What Mr. McCain has yet to explain is where those troops will come from. Mr. Bush’s disastrous war in Iraq has so overtaxed American forces that the math is painfully simple: Until there is a real drawdown from Iraq, there will not be enough troops to win in Afghanistan.
