Norman Rogers is the driving force behind "Celebrity Disaster."

This is a blog dedicated to the arts, celebrity, the entertainment industry, you know--light, fluffy, unserious stuff--that can kill.

Mr. Rogers explains:

"I wanted to have a world-class blog, and I have that. I wanted to write about sports, and I have that, too. I wanted a place to tell the stories about my secret work as a Gentleman Bounty Hunter, and I have that now. I wanted to post pictures of nearly-naked hotties, and I have that. What I didn't have was my own venue to comment on the world of celebrity, and now I have that as well. To me, modern celebrity is a disaster, and the name was available, so we took it, and that's what you have right here. Celebrity Disaster! It doesn't make sense, but it doesn't have to."

Norman's Contesseration for January 19, 2010

What happened to Yasmine Bleeth? She is such a lovely lady.

What a weekend! I was threatened with a lawsuit, I was asked to become a martyr for the cause, I was forced to defend a company whose products I have never used, Miranda called me a booger priest, and the world is on fire! Everything is going into the toilet, sir! Gaaack!

Well, not so much Gaaack! but you get the idea. Do you Wii? I Wii. It did fabulous at Christmas. Curt Schilling is a saint in Boston, and if you don't know that, don't try to make a joke that is outside of your lane. Did you hear? President Bush is baaaaack. I love it when someone redesigns their website. Is it Thursday? I need to change templates again.

They updated their wanted poster for Osama Bin Laden, and some guy in Spain is upset at the likeness that was used. Eastern Europe is headed for another year of economic problems, unfortunately. I wrote about art theft and some clown in New York threatened me with a lawsuit. Norman doesn't play, suckas. Mother Bear piled on. Wah! The train is running between Sarajevo and Belgrade. Anyone using it?

Despite increased use of headphones, we're not going deaf at a faster rate. You cannot remove risk from the art of investing, but you can make a number of cosmetic changes that add up to nothing. Brazil is flexing its muscles in Haiti, and I have to point out, this is a catastrophe, not a soccer game. Kabul was shut down recently when the Taliban decided to make a war out of it.

Haiti's el presidente or Président de la République for life or until the next invasion is a quiet man who doesn't talk much. Yay! It's not looting if there's a complete and utter breakdown of society--it's stone age etiquette. Pat Robertson takes one off the chin. There's a bit of phony outrage over what a company that makes gun sights has been stamping on the sides of their sights in very small letters and numerals. Are the Argentines and Brits going to have another South Atlantic dance? Japan Airlines is going broke, fast. Unfortunately, that affects at least one, if not two, airlines in this country.

Over at Gentleman Bounty Hunter, I'm telling stories, and I don't care who knows that I'm an Independent now.

Over at gadjimatronics, I talked about the Wii. Hey, I already did that.

Over at Talking Smack About Sports, I covered the NFL playoffs, and I have the Pants on the Ground video with Brett Favre. I also have more on the Alexandre Burrows and Stephane Auger controversy in the NHL.

The Safe For Work Hotties were Anita Dark, Silvia Saint, and Alektra Blue.

What's a booger priest? Is that someone who worships or administers last rites to boogers? Look, I've been sick for weeks--I have a lot of phlegm and mucous. When I sneeze, it goes everywhere. I'm miserable! Wah! Why does my only daughter torment me so?

Norman's Brief Contesseration for January 15, 2010

Eva Mendes is the cure for cold weather

Are you sick and tired of this terrible cold weather?

We are sick and tired of the cold in the Northeast, so we are examining ways to relocate to St. Thomas for the duration of the winter. We may do two or three months down there, which would be a tonic for the troops. Miranda's poor hands and face are all scabby and dry--I have given her eucerin cream and told her to get to work. She won't find a man with dead, dry skin on her ears. An Ivy League man notices grooming. Your various state school yokels, perhaps not so much. We have to get some lotion on my daughter, and, no, that's not dirty, so don't even go there.

It's been too long since the last contesseration, so let me give you a handful of good things to read. Riot control vehicles have saved modern soccer, you know. I've seen the insides of your garden variety Western European soccer stadiums, and the toilets are atrocious. Judith Miller is out practicing random acts of journalism again, and, no, she does not impress me with her choice of words. Thieves do not work for drug cartels. Google is going to take on the Chinese, and my money is on no one. I do not believe in gambling. Johnny Law, you should calm down about people who land ski planes on frozen lakes. No one writes about Iraq anymore, but I wrote about it today, and the displaced are not going back, no matter how much the violence declines (allegedly). What's the harm in some boys throwing dice? Is that too much for the thought police to handle?

I have to pack. And, I have to remember to tell someone to fill the tank on the humidifier.

Norman's Contesseration for January 9, 2010

Teri Hatcher, who's had a problem lately with a broken rib...

Another cold weekend here in Maryland. Ugh.

Say, have you heard how the peace is beginning to unravel in Northern Ireland?

Michael Steele is a basket case. They need to remove him immediately. When you've lost Meghan McCain, you've lost...what, exactly? They've caught the fellow who caused all of that trouble at Newark International Airport--what a sad clown.

Do you know what Okinotori is? When does the weather qualify as a real news story? Weirdos do tend to read my blog and then try to get on planes--I've figured it all out. Sean McFate has the rest of his nonsense beaten down into nothing. What does quality of life mean in a time of economic peril? How does Harry Reid still have a career in politics? And, did you know that there are people out there, fighting to bring unhealthy food to the American people at the expense of a company that changed its product in order to be healthier?

When I talk smack about sports, it doesn't usually involve two Pete Carroll pieces in a row.

Very light on Safe For Work Hotties--just the lovely Ashley Robbins and Tori Black.

Norman's Contesseration for December 29, 2009

  This is my all-time favorite blog post photo, by the way…

It's tough getting to the end of the year, isn't it?

At some point, I'll do a "best of" for the American Lion blog. I want to find 12 posts that will give people a good sampling of what we're about around there. It'll probably be a little bit naughty, and a whole lot deranged. That's how we ghost ride this whip, y'all.

Speaking of the main blog, there's a fellow who gets to blog on the Huffington Post, which is mindless nonsense, and he's a real sob sister about terrorism and who should do what to make sure he doesn't soil himself. Did you know that the embarrassingly unfunny and painfully obvious Dave Barry is still alive? Me neither. Newspapers, I care nothing for your inability to start charging for content.

The whistleblower who revealed that comfy UBS tax dodge scheme wants to delay being sent to prison so he can tell the authorities more about what he knows. No one really knows what to do about Iran, but bombing Iran is insane. You're a badass if you steal a plane, by the way. Not so much if you actually know how to fly.

One thing proven by the recent airliner bomb attempt scare is this: Dick Cheney looks more and more correct all of the time. The Obama Administration really needs to get on the ball and start doing something, and the Congress needs to get out of the way. The Cat Genie is one of the worst gadgets ever invented, and Mr. Toobers can attest to that.

Peter Hoekstra is a money grubbing whore. Mr. Lars Ulrich has a hearing problem. And, that ridiculous airliner bomber with the exploding defective underwear is a real lonelyhearts.

There was a lot going on in sports, but I didn't get to much of it. I do note that this is a great interview with Joe Paterno.

The Safe For Work Hotties were Teagan Presley, Jessica Fiorentino, Cristal Houston, Hanna Hilton, and Monique Hajkova.

Norman's Contesseration for December 26, 2009

It's Boxing Day, but I don't care.

Since our last roundup, which I call a contesseration because I'm weird like that, I've taken a few days off from blogging and I've avoided the news. Every year, in December, I hit the reset button. Things that didn't work January through November are thrown away in December. Who knows what that will mean? I certainly don't.

I took a look at health care industry stocks--they're booming! Hope you have some, too.

Life is always more difficult for those of us who have trust funds--I get that. Have I ever talked about how much I hate horse people, horse racing, and having to drive behind a horse carrying vehicle?  One of the best pieces I've done in ages talks about clothing and how men looked in the 1970s.

If it wasn't for the fact that he was doing this years ago, Andrew Sullivan would never hold on to his blogging job.

Ever heard of Nat Hentoff? Have a gander at his opinions.

Subaru is doing well--in large part because they're making cars that people have a great deal of loyalty for.

No one is going to save you from terrorism except yourself, so get off your dead ass and do something, if you ever get the chance.

I didn't do much smack talking about sports, so let's take a pass there.

The Safe For Work Hotties were Stacy Moran and Racquel Darrian...
