HAPPY VETERANS DAY

Here's a little military muscle in honor of Veterans Day today.

 

W&D extend a huge, heartfelt thanks to all of the brave men and women who put their lives on the line for us every day in the service of our country, and we dedicate this post to both the victims and heroes of the recent Fort Hood Tragedy.

WE HAVE NOW OFFICIALLY SEEN EVERYTHING . . . SNUGGIE FOR DOGS

As if the original Snuggie wasn't stupid enough (hello!! it's just an oversized bathrobe worn backwards!!!), there is now a version for dogs . . . available in multiple colors and sizes.  Yikes!

You can check out the Snuggie for Dogs commercial in the second part of this post.

DERRICK'S DIATRIBES: "THE BOX"

This past Saturday, Warren and I ventured across the Delaware River to Cherry Hill, NJ to take in the new James Marsden and Cameron Diaz film, THE BOX. That was a mistake seeing how the film turned out to be horrible, absolutely horrible. We didn't know much about the movie beforehand, other than thinking the previews looked really-really brilliant...boy were we mistaken. THE BOX is based on the 1979 short story BUTTON, BUTTON and is directed by DONNIE DARKO mastermind Richard Kelly. I walked away from that movie the same way I walked away from THE BOX on Saturday: very confused and angry because I was so confused and had just wasted $12 bucks on a movie ticket. I won't bore you with the plot, I'll let Kirk Honeycutt over at The Hollywood Reporter due that for you. I just want to know one thing, how did Kelly get the money to make this movie?! [THR]

YET ANOTHER REASON TO HATE WAL-MART

I've said before, and I'll probably say it again . . . I hate Wal-Mart.  Here's just another reason why:

A Wal-Mart in rural Indiana detained two gay attorneys and their two adopted special needs sons and then banned them from patronizing any store in the chain, even though video records proved that the couple had not shoplifted the packages of Bic lighters that employees claimed they had. One of the men had used the store's self-checkout lane and security cameras clearly showed him scanning the items in question. According to the couple, Wal-Mart security threatened them in the store's detention room and made disparaging remarks about their "lifestyle." 

Even after their innocence was proven by the store's own surveillance, Wal-Mart refused to compensate the couple for their ruined frozen groceries and is even demanding that they pay ten times the value of the items they were wrongly accused of stealing. The couple says they can't sue, because Wal-Mart historically "plays hardball" on such actions and they don't have "a couple of million dollars" to proceed.[JMG]
