  DON'T FORGET TO "LIKE" BEE-OTCH OF THE DAY ON FACEBOOK!  Name: Lindsay Lohan Age: 25 Occupation: party girl Last Seen: Los Angeles Bee-otched For: being a cunt --- Hugh Hefner, I love you man, but you're getting senile. Last week, the much-ballyhooed Playboy pictorial of Lindsay Lohan was revealed. It shows the troubled actress once again channeling Marilyn Monroe, similar to her pictorial in New York Magazine a few years ago. Prior to the pictorial's release, her publicist said that she would bare all in the mens' mag: breasts, butt and yes, vajayjay. However, reports said that Lohan had to come back in to reshoot some photos. Whoever Lindsay's publicist is needs to be shot. When the photos leaked last week, we got to see a lot of her flesh-colored nipples and more ass than what her New York feature showed, but the only vag we got to see from her was covered by her right leg. Reportedly, Playboy paid LiLo nearly a million bucks, and this is it. No vajayjay. True, it's a step up from the late Heidi Montag's disastrous shoot from a few years ago, but once again, Lindsay's just another cunt who doesn't mind showing her twat in front of horny cameramen but not her fans, or what fans she still has. Of course, we have that pic of her from a few years ago above. Judging by what the thing looks like, she's probably banged everything she sees. Since the issue leaked, the magazine has announced that it will hit stands sooner than usual. The issue is for January and February, so there's two months wasted. Bear in mind that yes, even Playboy has been pinched by the poor economy and is publishing fewer issues. After all, it's reported that the magazine - once worth over a billion dollars - is only worth somewhere around $80 million and losing money faster than a rabbit fucking. Why? Simple: PEOPLE CAN SEE NAKED CHICKS ONLINE FOR FREE!Playboy bowing to a coked-up, washed-up skank like LiLo will only help demote Hef from the Playboy Mansion to a poor man's nursing home. It's amazing that LiLo loves Marilyn Monroe so much; after all, they both lived a life of vice. Marilyn died at 32, and if LiLo dies sooner, I wouldn't be surprised one bit. Thanks, LiLo, but I have better girls online to jack off to. --- Got a Bee-otch to nominate? E-mail us @ chuck69dotcom@gmail.com. All suggestions (except for me) are welcome!

12.8.11 Bee-otch of the Day: Limp Bizkit
DON'T FORGET TO "LIKE" BEE-OTCH OF THE DAY ON FACEBOOK! Name: Limp Bizkit Age: 16 Occupation: nu-metal band Last Seen: California Bee-otched For: becoming homeless for the holidays --- Remember a little nu-metal rap band from Jacksonville, FL called "Limp Bizkit"? --- At one point, they were one of the coolest bands in the world. They came into popularity in 1997 when they covered George Michael's "Faith". Then they had a few more hits like "Rollin'", "Take a Look Around", and yes, "Nookie". Oh, they even covered The Who's "Behind Blue Eyes".... Poorly. Of course, Fred Durst was one of rock's biggest egomanics but tried to become more down to earth when the band released the much-hated The Unquestionable Truth (Part 1) in 2005 to poor reviews and little sales. After five years of regrouping and resting, Limp came back earlier this year. Remember? They released a new album called Gold Cobra and it had a few singles from it like "Shotgun" "Autotunage" and even the title track. End result? Failure. Radio stations shunned the new songs and Gold Cobra only sold nowhere close to 50,000 copies. Very sad for a band that sold over two million copies of 1997's Three Dollar Bill Y'all$ (which had "Counterfeit" and "Faith"), seven million of 1999's Significant Other ("Nookie", "Re-Arranged", "N 2 Gether Now" (with Method Man) and the controversial "Break Stuff") and six million of 2000's Chocolate Starfish and the Hot Dog Flavored Water ("My Generation", "Rollin'", "Take a Look Around", "My Way" and "Boiler"). Sadly, their next album, 2003's Results May Vary only sold a million copies. Maybe part of it's because its two singles "Eat You Alive" and "Behind Blue Eyes" - where Durst decided to re-write the bridge - where huge piles of shit. Now, Limp has gone, well, Limp. Durst told the media that their next album - expected to be out next year - will be released independently and not through long-time label Interscope. However, I heard that Interscope dumped the band from their label because of their last three albums tanking. It amazes me that many bands from the 90's are still doing quite well. Look at KoRn. Not long ago, they released KoRn III and it was like all their other albums. End result: bomb. But guess what? Their latest album, The Path of Totality - which came out Tuesday - does have a buzz to it because it has a new sound. The album is influenced by the latest craze in music, dubstep. Will it be a hit? Who knows? KoRn is not afraid to try new things whereas Limp is a band stuck in 1997 while Durst is a 40-something acting like a young punk. Their fans grew up, but not the band themselves. In the end, Limp Bizkit's seen better days, and the sales prove it. It's time for Fred and the boys to hang it up or try something new. This is 2011. Indie's big, straight-forward rock's big, but rap-rock's been dead for years. Adapt to the changing times or die. Remember the verse about going platinum and writing better beats and better rhymes in "Rollin'"? Now, payback's a bitch, ain't it? Got a Bee-otch to nominate? E-mail us @ chuck69dotcom@gmail.com.

12.7.11 Bee-otch of the Day: Sandy Richards
DON'T FORGET TO "LIKE" BEE-OTCH OF THE DAY ON FACEBOOK! Name: Sandy Richards Age: ?? Occupation: music teacher, Cherry Knoll Elementary School Last Seen: Traverse City, MI Bee-otched For: censoring the gay away --- Once again, my old hometown of Traverse City is making headlines for all the wrong reasons. --- One of the Cherry Capitol's elementary schools got into deep hot water recently when its music teacher decided to re-write part of a classic 16th century Christmas carol that's been sung by generations of children. The msuic teacher at Cherry Knoll Elementary decided to omit the word "gay" from "Deck the Halls" because her 1st and 2nd graders were laughing when the lyrics "don we now our gay apparel" were laughing hysterically when the line came up. So, she re-wrote it as "don we now our bright apparel". The changing of the tune angered many in the community and it's even making national headlines, at least on The Huffington Post and - you guessed it - PerezHilton.com. Without a shadow of a doubt, many posters of websites such as UpNorthLive.com - the shared website of co-owned NBC and ABC affiliates WPBN and WGTU - have barged on the topic. A whopping 79% of the website's readers agree that it was a bad decision on the teacher's part to censor the lyric, especially since the song is so old. Of course "Deck the Halls" was written in a time when the word "gay" meant "happy". Heck, remember The Flintstones? "We'll have a gay 'ol time"? As late as the 1960's, "gay" meant "happy". But now, "gay" means "homosexual" and many - especially young, impressionable children - associate "gay" with "stupid". Most media outlets - like WPBN - haven't revealed the name of the song-censoring teacher (although they showed her door, complete with her name on it), but gee, there's a little-known website called Google that has led us to the Cherry Knoll website, where we learned that their only music teacher is a sad, pathetic soul named Sandy Richards, and her e-mail address is floydsa@tcaps.net. You can even call her at 616-933-7950. Tragically, that's all we know about her. Well, after the negative publicity regarding the censoring of "gay", the school has given Mrs. Richards a nice little slap on the wrist and has put that nasty 'ol word back in the song, just in time for the yearly Christmas concert. There's no word as to what punishment Richards was given. Look, if I were Mrs. Richards, I would give the children a little lesson on the song. I would tell them that "gay" means "happy". I know, it's tough to teach small children an embarrassing and taboo subject like homosexuality, but if that comes to that, so let it be. If Mrs. Richards wanted to take the song out altogether, that would have been a wise choice, too. <southpark reference>If worse comes to worse, I hear that Philip Glass is available.</southparkreference> Got a Bee-otch to nominate?

12.6.11 Bee-otch of the Day: Don Julio's Mexican Restaurant
DON'T FORGET TO "LIKE" BEE-OTCH OF THE DAY ON FACEBOOK!  Name: Don Julio's Mexican Restaurant Age: deceased Occupation: former Bennigan's Last Seen: at the I-96/28th St. corridor, Cascade, Twp., MI Bee-otched For: receiving their payback --- When the Bennigan's at 28th St. and I-96 closed several years ago, it was because its owner, Metromedia, went bankrupt. --- Now, the restaurant that replaced it is gone, too. The reason: a dog. As we reported a few weeks ago, Don Julio's Mexican Restaurant got itself into a huge heap of trouble when Frank Eckl and his family came to dinner with his Black Lab, Spruce. Eckl is a Gulf War Vet and has Gulf War Syndrome as a result, which gives him seizures. Spruce is his service dog, and if he has a seizure, it's Spruce's job to alert people by barking until he gets help. After they seated Eckl and his family, the restaurant's manager came and told them that their dog had to go to the lobby since it was distracting customers and shedding all over. Of course, what the manager did was VERY illegal, since under federal law, ALL service dogs must be allowed at all times in public buildings. True, Eckl had his family by his side, Spruce also serves as his lifeline, especially if they walk away for whatever reason. Angry, Eckl's family left the restaurant and went to the IHOP next door where they were served with a lot more dignity. Eckl told his story to several news outlets in the area, and many in west Michigan felt his pain. Several anti-Don Julio's Facebook pages were created and many were storming review sites such as Google and telling people not to support a place that disses vets and other disabled people. The restaurant's manager, a young Hispanic woman was even interviewed on WOOD-TV 8, saying that if another dog came in her building, she would kick that dog out too. The negativity regarding Don Julio's has killed it. Last Saturday, a huge white sign stating "CLOSED" was posted on a window, the doors were locked and its phone was disconnected. There's no real word why Don Julio's closed, but one could speculate that the dog controversy was the #1 reason. Look, the law's the law. All public place must allow service animals, even if it's shedding like crazy. If Eckl had a seizure episode, it would have been a major help to have Spruce around. But, no. The manager was a royal cunt and showed zero respect for the disabled, especially for a man who fought for our country. I hope that bitch is happy that she's out of a job and ruined the reputation of what once was one of Grand Rapids' best-reviewed Mexican restaurants. There's a taco stand on every corner in Grand Rapids, even across the street from Don Julio's (Moe's). Now, there's another empty storefront that needs a new tenant. Don Julio's, I hope the door doesn't hit you on the ass too hard. Got a Bee-otch to nominate? E-mail us @ chuck69dotcom@gmail.com. All suggestions (except for me) are welcome!

12.5.11 Bee-otch of the Day: Herman Cain

Name: Herman Cain
Age: 66
Occupation: president wannabe

Bee-otched For: being a quitter

Chuckamaniacs, are you ready for Obama's second term?
The reason why I'm asking is a simple one: one of the most-ballyhooed people running for president is dropping out of the race because, well, he dresses in a nice suit and a fancy hat... Hey! He IS a pimp!
But yes, there's all them bitches that have all jumped out of the woodwork and have all claimed that the ex-CEO of Godfather's Pizza had sexual relations with them. Cain - who has been married to wife Gloria for 43 years - has faced a sharp decline in his poll numbers because of the allegations, which he denied. Right now, many polls are indicating that Mitt Romney and another man who is no stranger to adultery, Newt Gingrich are in the lead.
Cain's drop-out only is basically a kick in the crotch for the Republican party, a party notorious for years of attracting rich white people and white trash enticed by the words "tax cut" since it means "less money for the coloreds" to them. Cain was a hit amongst his Republican kin because it was proof that a black man can be a Republican, plus the fact that his 9-9-9 plan would create a tax system that would benefit the rich.
But like many other politicians, damn did he have skeletons in his closet.
With many women coming out here and there crying sexual harassment and relationships, it left Cain, an associate pastor at a Baptist church in Atlanta, in a rut. So, with consultation from Gloria, he bowed out of the presidential race on Saturday.
Ya know, I think Obama has nothing to worry about right now. All the Republicans have a ton of baggage that would prevent them from being president. Plus, most of them have their hands down the pockets of the wealthy, all except Ron Paul, who despite being the lesser of all the evils on the right won't stand a chance in the 2012 elections, especially as an independent.
But, here's a fear I do have: IF Ron Paul runs for president as an indie, it would siphon some votes from the 2008 Obama crowd, especially from those who haven't been impressed with his performance so far as president. If that's the case, it would be alarming. After all, many - like myself - weren't happy when Al Gore chose Joe Lieberman as his running mate in 2000 and voted for Ralph Nader. Tragically, we all know the sad ending to that tale.
Seriously, I'm not totally sad Cain's out of the race. But, the other candidates should consider dropping out considering their bad decisions. If a man who cheated on his cancer-stricken wife becomes president, God damn us all. Same goes to the woman who thinks that her husband can cure homosexuality and the rich man who believes in what Joe Smith said.
Let's hope that Obama's a one-woman man....

11.30.11 Hero of the Day: Andrea True
DON'T FORGET TO "LIKE" BEE-OTCH OF THE DAY ON FACEBOOK!
ALL THIS WEEK, CHUCK69.COM WILL HONOR NOTHING BUT HEROES!
TODAY'S SPECIAL HERO OF THE DAY IS....
Name: Andrea Marie Truden
Age: deceased

Last Seen: Kingston, NY
Awarded For: being quite possibly, the smartest porn star ever

Name: Andrea Marie Truden

Occupation: porn star-turned pop singer

Awarded For: being quite possibly, the smartest porn star ever
---
The world of pornographic movies is a bitch.
Most actresses in the adult film industry disappear into the abyss when they get older and retire. Many want to quit the biz while they're young, and finding mainstream success ends up being a bitch.
Very few beat the odds, and one of them was Andrea True.
Born in Nashville as Andrea Marie Truden, she attended an all-girls Catholic school and graduated in 1961. She moved to New York, hoping to break into the movies. She did get a few meager-paying walk-ons, but nothing special. However, in 1972, the hardcore porn business exploded when films such as Deep Throat, Beyond the Green Door and The Devil in Miss Jones became mainstream hits and proved that there was an audience for watching real sex on the silver screen. Andrea took a chance, and under assumed names like Singe Low and Inger Kissin, she became a heavyweight in the world of X-rated film.
By the mid-70's, Andrea - who shortened her last name to True to not embarrass her family - was burned out having sex on screen. So, when other well-paying jobs came available, she took them. In 1975, she was asked by a real estate company in Jamaica to appear in several commercials. She accepted, and after she did the ads and was paid, she was looking forward to returning to the U.S. Problem was, there was a coup and no money was to leave the island.
And this, my friends, is why True might have been the smartest porn star ever.
One of her best friends was a record producer named Gregg Diamond. She asked him to come to Jamaica with a song and she would use her commercial money to finance the track. The two recorded the song in a studio on the island and came back to the states hoping that a record company would be interested in her life-saving investment.
It worked many-fold.
Buddah Records released the song in late 1976 only to discos. Because of positive listener response, the song was released as a single and radio stations. It peaked at #4 on the Billboard Top 100 singles chart and also did very well internationally.
That song, of course, was "More, More, More".
True and her fictional band The Andrea True Connection did have one more pop hit, "N.Y. You Got Me Dancing", which went to #27 on the Billboard pop charts in 1977. In all, she recorded three albums, but after the failure of her third album, the rock-leaning War Machine in 1980, True learned that a goiter in her vocal chords had to be operated on, destroying her singing career. True reluctantly returned to porn, but that ended because she was pushing 40. The rest of her life was private, working as a psychic reader and living off the royalty checks of "More More More". However, in 1999, her checks got bigger when Canadian alternative popsters Len scored a hit with "Steal My Sunshine", sampling its bridge.
Sadly, Andrea True passed away on November 7 at the age of 68 from heart failure at a hospital in Kingston, NY, about 60 miles east of Albany. She had no survivors. Her remains were cremated per her wishes. News of her death weren't made until Thanksgiving and made very little buzz on the web, at least from my perspective.
Many work in the adult entertainment industry, but few like Andrea could trade in the penis for a microphone. Many look at those who bare all in front of the camera and worse as skanks, sluts and whores. It's a reputation destroyer. But Andrea beat the odds, at least for a few years in the 1970's. Heck, even conservative Adult Contemporary stations played the song; it peaked at #23 on that respective chart.
True, I hate disco with an immense passion, but "More More More" is a noted exception since there's a great story behind it, and it's sung by a porn star. A SMART porn star who didn't allow a political crisis slow her down. She hopefully died with a few bucks in her pocket, although alone.
Sometimes, we want more, but we'll never have enough.

11.29.11 Hero of the Day: The Roots
DON'T FORGET TO "LIKE" BEE-OTCH OF THE DAY ON FACEBOOK! ALL THIS WEEK, CHUCK69.COM WILL HONOR NOTHING BUT HEROES! TODAY'S SPECIAL HERO OF THE DAY IS.... Name: The Roots Age: 24 Occupation: hip-hop band Last Seen: New York City Awarded For: publicly insulting Michele Bachmann --- Normally, I hand out the Bee-otch of the Day everyday, but this week, I've found a few folks deserving of being heroes. These people changed our lives and made good decisions that, well, made our lives better. --- Today, we honor a group that quite frankly, is one of the best rap groups out there, which is The Roots. Unlike most rappers, there's no fake grills or some dude spinning records sampling other people's songs. They're just a bunch of guys playing instruments while their lead singer, the usually dapper Tariq "Black Thought" Trotter raps. In 2009, the Grammy Award-winning band was given the honor of being the house band for the newly-Christened Late Night With Jimmy Fallon. Thanks to the show, the sophisticated hip-hoppers have seen more exposure, but now, it's more ways than one. Last week, Republican presidential candidate Michele Bachmann appeared on the show, and bandleader Ahmir "?uestlove" Thompson decided that the group should play a very appropriate tune to lead her out. After all, she was the second guest that evening, so in other words, she wasn't on until c. 1:10 in the morning. The song that the band played her out was a tune called "Lyin' Ass Bitch", originally performed by the legendary ska-punk rock band Fishbone. The tune originally appeared on their 1985 self-titled EP, which also spawned their best-known song, "Party At Ground Zero". Many felt that The Roots' song choice for the controversial Minnesota Congresswoman was mean and sexist, and as a sign of good sportsmanship, NBC, Fallon and The Roots have all apologized to Bachmann. Fallon even asked her to appear on the show at a later date. She has accepted the apology, and has said that she wants to choose her theme this time. Like many other late night house bands, The Roots usually choose appropriate tunes to introduce guests. However, since ?uestlove is a liberal - and he has a picture of himself next to President Obama on his Twitter page - whenever Fallon has a conservative on the show, they'll tend to embarrass them. Just ask Lou Dobbs, who was greeted with Genesis' "Illegal Alien" when he appeared on the show. But in the case of Bachmann, the only thing The Roots did wrong was apologize. If it were up to me, I'd turn the other cheek and say "fuck you". There's no chance in hell that she's going to be our next president. She's too conservative, homophobic and holier-than-thou. If Webster's Dictionary had "Lyin' Ass Bitch" in it, Bachmann's picture would be next to it. Apology or not, what The Roots did to Bachmann took lots of guts, and I applaud them for it. All I can say to them is keep up the good work and don't allow these right-winged assholes that come on the show let you down. Hubble (and everybody whose IQ is well above room temperature) got you.
