Looks to me more like a progressive, liberal mix of GQ, People and Playboy. Not a bad thing but hardly Fox News conservative, epichairekakia-type"yellow" journalism! Good thing, at least they didn't have us growing hair on our palms and tearing wings off of small insects! Whew!

Happy New Year to all!
And Happy New Year to all.

But for the record, I don't see anything "progressive" in an "obsess[ion] with gaming, entertainment and everything guys." And maybe it's all a question of taste, but it was FoxNews.com that chose to put the story before a wider audience, to what end I suppose you would have to ask Roger Ailes, its big boss with the direct line to the sanctum sanctorum of a decidedly non-progressive political party.

Ps So tell me more about growing hair on our palms and tearing wings off of small insects.
