Northern Kentucky HAS CLASS ON PRESIDENT'S DAY. Can we do something about this?

Now, for entertainment news from IMDB.Clint Eastwood gives a death threat to Michael Moore. The blogosphere has yet to say a thing on this from what I've read so here goes: Can't we just get a long. While I'm not a supporter of Dean's chair race, I'll accept him as chair if he's elected by the DNC. I won't go running green.

Clint Eastwood has chillingly warned documentary-maker Michael Moore he'll face certain death if he ever points his camera at him. Picking up a Special Film-making Achievement prize for Million Dollar Baby at the National Board Of Review Awards dinner in New York on Tuesday, Eastwood urged the Fahrenheit 9/11 director to avoid making him the subject of a future project if he values his life. However, Eastwood - a staunch supporter of the Republicans - did admit he and Moore have a shared view of how American society should operate. He said, "Michael Moore and I actually have a lot in common - we both appreciate living in a country where there's free expression. But, Michael, if you ever show up at my front door with a camera - I'll kill you." And when Eastwood noticed the audience had erupted in laughter to his threat, he emphasized, "I mean it." However, Moore's representatives insist the comments were intended as a joke: "Michael laughed along with everyone else, and took Mr Eastwood's comments in the lighthearted spirit in which they were given."

Dude, he's serious.

More on the racist formerly known as Prince Harry:

Jewish leaders have demanded British royal Prince Harry visit the concentration camp at Auschwitz, Poland - following his controversial decision to wear a Nazi uniform to a fancy dress party at the weekend. Critics were outraged by the heir's gaffe and want him to join a group visiting the site later this month, to mark the 60th anniversary of the liberation of Auschwitz. Rabbi Marvin Hier, dean of the American-based Simon Wiesenthal Center, says, "This was a shameful act displaying insensitivity for the victims, not just for those soldiers of his own country who gave their lives to defeat Nazism but to the victims of the Holocaust. We strongly urge Prince Harry to accompany the British delegation on January 27 to the Auschwitz death camp to commemorate 60 years since liberation. There he will see the results of the hated symbol he so foolishly and brazenly chose to wear."

I'm no Jewish leader but I'm all for it. While they are at it, make the Gibsons go too.

Oliver Stone departing for France?

Director Oliver Stone is so distraught over the criticism targeted at his last two big screen projects, he's preparing to flee America for France. The JFK movie-maker sparked controversy by meeting Cuban dictator Fidel Castro for his 2003 documentary Comandante - forcing TV network HBO to axe it from their schedule. Stone's recent historical epic, Alexander, was also subjected to scathing reviews in the US for portraying Macedonian warrior Alexander The Great as a bisexual. And Stone can't understand why years of hard work have failed to produce a positive reaction, so is desperate to seek comfort in his mother's homeland, to escape the bad vibes that are crippling his confidence in America. He says, "Since the Castro movie I did, things have been tough. Everyone was against it. Then I put my heart into Alexander, which wasn't appreciated either. The right thing is for me to stay out of America for a while. I'm planning to spend a lot more time in France."

Didn't Alec Baldwin say he would be leaving America if Bush won? He left Kim Basinger. I remember that for sure.
