For the second time in over a year, this blogger paid a visit to the legendary Phil Bronstein, the San Francisco Chronicle‘s Executive Vice President and Editor-At-Large for the last three years.

The Space Shuttle Atlantis lifted off from Kennedy Space Center this morning, and high into the sky and eventually into Earth’s orbit. It marks the final launch – the last time in 30 years America will launch a Space Shuttle. For this blogger, who’s saw the passing of the Apollo Space Program and now the … Read more
The Green Lantern movie is litterally just out of the can, and already we have a YouTube-based spoiler leak of massive proportions. In the Green Lantern movie Thaal Sinestro starts as the mentor to new GL member Hal Jordan, and while the character played by Mark Strong winds up a villian, in the movie, he’s … Read more
“The Twitter #140 NYC Conference And The Vancouver Riots?” What? Yep. Allow this blogger to explain (and follow me on Twitter at Zennie62 ). This marks my first “Technorati-first” blog post, as I’m now a blogger over at Technorati.com, as well as my main post at Zennie62.com (and Zennie62blog.com), and SFGate.com, SeattlePI.com, Examiner.com, and other … Read more
At first, the website 4chan and the Anti-Janice Hahn Give Us Your Cash B Racist Video created by that master of self-promotion Ladd Ehlinger, Jr., would seem to have nothing to do with each other. But in point of fact, they do, if only indirectly. 4chan is the missing link in this. But before we … Read more
U.S. Democratic Congressman Dennis Kucinich showed his nasty and perhaps sexist side in his treatment of CNN Anchor Brooke Baldwin just moments ago on CNN Live.

As of this writing, something interesting is going on with Google Trends: the top listed trend is for “Good Morning America,” but the results are all over the place, and days old.

You know, TMZ.com’s take on this, with the latest news from their well-placed sources, makes me feel sorry for Playboy Founder Hugh Hefner, who was left at the alter by Crystal Harris, just five days before the wedding. This is what TMZ.com reported: Hugh Hefner was left at the altar because his 25-year-old fiancee Crystal … Read more
A political ad video has made the rounds of the Internet called “Give us your cash B__.” It was created as an ad against Los Angeles Councilmember Janice Hahn, and because of her involvement in a gang intervention program that faced some problems in 2009.

Former Alaska Governor Sarah Palin has little use for bloggers, particularly one Alaskan thorn named Sherry Whitstine AKA Syrin (in photo). That much is clear after this blogger’s first perusal through the online files of emails that were posted, thank to The Huffington Post. The particular email segment that focuses on Syrin started July 8, … Read more
Michele Bachmann over Mitt Romney? In the 2012 GOP Debate in New Hampshire? Well, perhaps we can say that on Monday night Hell did freeze over, and because while Minnesota Congresswoman Michele Bachmann didn’t trip up former Massachusetts Governor Mitt Romney, she did outshine both he and Texas Congressman Ron Paul by not being what … Read more

The 2011 24 Hours Of Le Mans, the World’s oldest endurance race, opened with the sudden, shocking, and deadly crash of Britain’s Allan McNish’s and America’s Mike Rockenfeller.

New York U.S. Rep. Anthony Weiner has announced that he will seek treatment (for sex addiction, one can guess) in the wake of a story broke by Conservative Blogger Andrew Brietbart that the central figure in Weinergate has contacted and sent lewd photos to five women – Megan Broussard, Lisa Weiss, Ginger Lee, and Gennette … Read more
While its creators will certainly disagree with this blogger’s blog post, after joining Storify, the new platform described as… a company building tools to help journalists, bloggers and experts curate the real-time Web. But really, the tool that’s in beta stage is nothing more, or less, than another blog platform. I’m not sure that I’m … Read more
In the wake of the YouTube EHarmony Video Scandal, we have the Google Les Paul Electric Guitar Doodle. This was a work of genius to say the least. The idea was to honor the creation of the electric guitar by none other than Les Paul, who passed on in 2009. The folks at the Google … Read more
A video surfaced on the page of my Facebook news feed, and placed their by my friend Jen Friel of the blog Talk Nerdy To Me Lover. Called EHarmony Video Bio, Ms. Friel placed it there because she had watched it 15 times in total fascination with what I will call the performance of it’s … Read more
Note: Visit our new, yet still not complete Zennie62Blog.com Because of his own stupid actions that I talked about in the video above, New York Congressman Anthony Weiner is in big trouble.

As I explain in the video, all of this started in 2006 when he … Read more
Gunsmoke, a favorite television show of this blogger when he was little, and a program that seemingly would never die until it’s last episode aired in 1975, was the place where the name Marshal Matt Dillon became a household word. Matt Dillon was expertly played by James Arness, who passed away at the age of … Read more
Blake Lively also has rare photos out there to go along with the coverage of Marilyn Monroe’s photos. Of course she isn’t trying to compete with Marilyn, but let’s see who cares about what more. Marilyn Monroe’s rare photos that are rediscovered seem like they would be more interesting than Blake Lively’s naked pictures. The … Read more
My video and blog request for YouTube to stop the use of the N-word has started a conversation that’s growing. While this blogger is not interested in debate – the N-word is bed and is not wanted on my channel – there is thoughtful conversation about this issue, both on YouTube and around the Internet. … Read more
Georgia GOP Congressman Rob Woodall (GA District 7) was caught at a town hall meeting making a statement, or a series of them, that could only be borne of hypocrisy.

Continuing what seems to be a tradition on The Late Show With David Letterman, Desperate Housewives star Eva Longoria came on last night showing nothing but full legs, all thighs, and cleavage.

There’s a debate in social media circles on the value of Twitter Followers. Some, like Aliza Sherman at Gigaom in 2009, say that the number of Twitter Followers isn’t important.

AT&T bought T-Mobile for $39 billion and to improve it’s phone service. It also makes AT&T one of the largest communications companies in the World.
