Has “Retarded” become Taboo?

By admin on August 14, 2008

by Stephen Dalla

P Diddy Pays $20 Mil. Too Much for Enyce thumbnail

P Diddy is bargain shopping, but unfortunately he’s sorting through the clearance sale of the outdated fashion rack. Sure Clairborne, the seller, previously purchased Enyce for over $114 million, a full $96 million more than P Diddy’s price, but there’s a reason why its being offered the bargain basement price.

July 28, 2008

Oliver Stone’s “W.” - Probably Terrible thumbnail

Malaysia the New Jewel of Southeast Asia thumbnail

People speak of Vientienne,  Laos, and the  serenity of Hue, Vietnam.  Legendary outposts for sure, but it seems to us that a nation and culture brimming  with energy and often overlooked is Malaysia.   When one thinks of beaches for example,  Thailand is  considered  the king, with tiny islands and clear blue views in each direction.  [...]
