dick clark productions are real dicks

Annoyed that you can't watch Sacha Baron Cohen's Golden Globe acceptance speech? I guess Dick Clark Productions didn't want any free marketing... After all, they took down every Golden Globe acceptance speech on Youtube. The great minds behind, So You Think You Can Dance, didn't even think of putting the clips on their website. That way at the very least bloggers could refer people to their site and drive traffic. Btw, the picture is of rapper Master P, he filled in for his son Lil' Romeo on SYTYCD. I wonder if Dick ever listened to P's song entitled "Make Crack Like This"?


In other news, thank you TJX for allowing customers' credit card info and drivers license info into the hands of hackers by having crappy security. I especially want to give TJX props for not doing any PR for about a month after the hack, and not releasing the locations of the stores suspected to be involved. I knew I was going to regret that boot-shaped vase I got at Home Goods in '03!

It's probably safer shopping on sites like Amazon, than at your bricks and mortar discount retail stores these days. Read about it in todays Boston Globe.
