Head lice outbreak on 'South Park'

A review of this week's episode

Head lice outbreak on 'South Park'

Are Trey Parker and Matt Stone trying to say something about the environment? One way to view the episode would be that the lice are human beings and we are destroying the world, which in the cartoon is Clyde's head.

Allen smokes, drinks and rocks

Lily Allen concert review

She's a rebel in an unconventional form, but don't be fooled by Lily Allen's short vintage dress, thick headband, or sweet sounding voice. This girl packs a punch (and a middle finger), and if you've ever done her wrong, watch out. (0) comments

All Hail the King of Pho

A Restaurant Review

The broth is superior, the difference between Sea Ridge and Two Buck Chuck is the difference between Pho King broth and a variety of other pho places in the area. The pho blends a delicate saltiness with a beef, rather than watery taste, both tastes heightened and made whole by the basil and the green onions, which thickens the broth. (0) comments
