Broadway Adaptation of Fight Club in the works

Fight Club, the 1999 cult classic about pent-up aggression, anti-capitalistism, and consumerism is preparing to make a bloody, fabulous splash into Broadway theaters for the film's 10th anniversary.

Director David Fincher told MTV News:

"I want at the 10-year anniversary to do 'Fight Club' as a musical on Broadway...I love the idea of that.""

I suppose no one ever told David Fincher the first rule of in development projects.

Whiny college student wants to abolish govt.

Arizona Wildcat readers were shocked to read a scathing editorial on student government organization the ASUA in this week's paper. Actually, no one cares because no one reads the Wildcat. [ed. except us]

University of Arizona student Connor Meddenhall, who is probably voting for Ron Paul, is the sophomore opinions editor for the Wildcat. His 1,300+ word ramblings include a detailed list of why the student government needs to be abolished.

Meddenhall produces hard numbers including decreased voter turnout and misappropriated funds. He claims student apathy is reason enough to disband the organization but continues to go on for another four-pages bitching about lobbyists and the integrity of student leaders. It's our guess he's pissed about getting burned on campaign promises such as chocolate milk from the water fountains and no homework.

The Brooksville Police Dept. ain't nothin' to fuck wit'

Gone are the days when townsfolk regaled neighborhood youths with ditties like DJ Jazzy Jeff's "Summertime". In today's post-9/11 world, nothing is sacred, including the impressionable virgin ears of the leaders of tomorrow.

Skeezy Floridian Christopher Holder has been cited for singing a rap song by the notoriously bland and awkwardly named Lil Boosie. In a deposition, Holder, presumably a Joe Dirt impersonator, told police: he did not believe children needed to hear [that kind of] language.

Please, won't somebody save our children!?

And like that, Criss Angel's write-in campaign comes to an end

"At a voting precinct in Chicago yesterday, a vote-scanning machine rejected 20 paper ballots that voters had used “magic” invisible ink pens to fill out."

Evidently, Chicago voters had mistakenly (and idiotically) used the tablet for the electronic voting machines in order to write on paper ballets. Wonkette has the story.

...and we're back!

I apologize for the lack of posts this past week, I have been having some ISP-related outages, but everything seems to be mostly back on track now.
