If I hear one more thing about this Miss USA who parties too much or those lost hikers in Oregon, I will off myself and I will not make the Super Bowl party.

Thank you.

Rescuers dropped search teams near the mountain's 11,239-foot summit from a CH-47 Chinook helicopter flown by pilots who had served in Afghanistan and Iraq. The pararescue team members scaled 300 feet down the nearly vertical face of the northeastern face of the mountain to reach a snow cave that was spotted from the air early Sunday.

Inside the cave, teams discovered two ice axes, some rope and a sleeping bag. The body was discovered in a second cave nearby. Officials said that family members have been notified, but declined to identify the deceased.

Rescue teams were pulled off the mountain early in the evening and officials said operations would resume in the morning. Temperatures have reached 18 degrees below zero near the summit at nighttime and rescuers say that the extreme cold combined with darkness makes it too hazardous continue the search for the other climbers.

Amen Matt--and pray there is not another brush fire in CA or Brittany Spears making another appearance while your at it. How they think they can hold anyones attention with this B.S. 24/7 is beyond me.

I'll also add, please, no car chase in California and no trapped worker in a tower somewhere when they will use the same exact 10 second video loop of nothing until he's rescued. Or 3 hours of footage watching a plane circle an airport trying to burn off fuel because the landing gear won't go down.

It's just insane. Those hikers have been the lead story for 10 days and you would think the future of civilization was at stake as The Donald was deciding whether to allow that party girl to remain Miss Usa.

Add T.O. to that list on any sports talk radio/TV segment this week. The host will start off about how despicable Owens is for spitting in Hall's face. "Owens is a total waste of human flesh," then they go on talking about it for 45 minutes instead of looking at the bowl picture or talking real NFL stuff.

But I have to disagree on the Miss USA coverage. Any 20 year old hottie, doing blow, deep tongue kissing with Miss Teen USA, indiscriminately picking up random guys at bars.... That's almost as hot as the decadent Panther cheerleaders from last year.

The mountain climbers i just dont get it. I can think of a million things to do besides climbing a silly mountain. The next person that climbs a mountain i hope nobody goes and waste money looking for them. i have a million friends and i can't think of one of them that i could con into going with me to climb a mountain. Some people must just have to much time on their hands. Id rather shove a porcupine up my ass backwards than go spend ten days climbing a mountain.

In lieu of being too insensitive, I'm just glad they have something besides the missing girl in Aruba. That was the worst example of a story getting too much air-time. I think if I was her parent, I would have wanted less coverage for privacy sake in a grieving matter.

And the hikers: the whole point of doing "extreme" sports is the possibility of danger. Dem's da breaks, kid. If you lay with the dogs, you might get fleas.

And on Miss USA.

As the saying goes, you can take the girl out of Kentucky...
