Undercover Hotties

Undercover Hotties will be a new segment in which the DPTOTI staff will bring to light the plight of undiscovered hotties everywhere. Think of it as UNICEF for hot chicks.

Julie Benz

Many of you might recognize Julie Benz as Rita on the Showtime TV show Dexter or as the voice of Miranda Keyes in Halo 2. In my opinion, Julie Benz is the Jenna Fischer of premium cable. Not only is she smoking like Jenna Fischer but she also ditched her loser husband when she got famous and is now on the prowl.

Annie Wersching

The pride of Millikin University, Annie now stars along side Jack Bauer on this season of 24. She might not hook you the first time around but she grows on you. Maybe its because she is Jack Bauer with tits or how there is no way she can fit into a standard bullet proof vest Annie just gets it done for me.

Amber Stevens

Amber Stevens stars as Ashley in the ABC Family show Greek. First things first, I love Greek. It's my guilty pleasure but I really don't think it's that guilty because the show is well written and pretty accurately depicts college life. But I digress, Amber Stevens has the unique ability to look both cute and hot while never looking skanky. This is an important trait because no one wants to take a skank to a black tie event nor do they want a skank raising their children.

That's Politics Bitch

- In case any of you missed it here is a quick recap of the brouhaha that went down at the Miss USA pageant.

I love this line from Perez Hilton, "I would have appreciated it if she had kept her politics and religion out because Miss USA represents all Americans."

First of all Perez you asked her a question about gay marriage. She didn't pick it and she didn't have the chance to pass on it. Secondly, my somewhat skinny ass you wanted her to say that each state should decide the issue for themselves. You were baiting her into that answer and trying to create a controversy.

- This past weekend Barack Obama met with our Latin neighbors to the south. Most notably he talked with Venezuela's Hugo Chavez and spoke of renewed relations with Cuba. Yesterday President Obama met with the Chicago Comrades White Sox to discuss socialism baseball. Coincidence? I'll let you decide.

- During an interview with Sean Hannity, blowhard extraordinaire, Dick Cheney chastised Obama for leaking the classified CIA memos regarding torture while not also releasing the memos that detailed what information was gained from them. Assuming we did actually get intelligence that saved American lives I could see this getting ugly for Democrats and Obama.

- Big ups to New York Governor David Patterson. In the video below he is apparently mocking an organization that is fighting to keep hospitals and nursing homes open. You stay classy governor.

Musical talents and slips of the tongue

Since my brain is pretty much fried all week nowadays, I haven't come up with anything interesting to write about. In my state of recovery from the workweek, I often turn to music and the internet to help me relax. I would like to share some of these things that made me smile today.

This kid is a prodigy. Why didn't my parents push me to do something like this?


I'm sure most of you have seen this, but I really enjoyed watching... errr listening to this. It's like I'm sitting on the most glorious rainbow in the world.

For those who follow politics, I'm sure you were aware of the Tax Day "Tea Parties" that were organized to protest all of the government spending. I'm not sure if this was a Freudian slip or if he actually ment to say it like this, but nonetheless Anderson Cooper is not only very true but very funny.


Finally, we come to a coaching change in the world of college basketball. Isiah Thomas is best known for his days playing at Indiana University and for the Detroit Pistons. While his reputation of late has been tarnished by running the Knicks into the ground, he is trying to rebuild his image and start anew at Florida International University. He is even donating this year's salary to the school (though the Knicks are paying him much more to NOT be involved with them anymore). I would still expect this to be big news on FIU's campus, and the administration would be glad to welcome the added press and hopefully increase in ticket sales. And this is how they welcome him...
