Dear Art, This week the Supreme Court ruled that taking a DNA swab from suspects arrested for “serious crimes” was constitutional. The case revolved around a man who was convicted of a crime unrelated to his arrest when his DNA was collected and run against a database of cold cases. The dissent was focused on [...]
Dear Art, This has been an awful week for the United States Air Force. There was some commotion last week about the military not being allowed to proselytize to servicemen and in most reports it was presented as a virtual matter-of-fact that the Air Force Academy in Colorado Springs is completely under the thumb of [...]
Dear Art, It was really touch and go for me this week but it looks like I’m going to make it through. I was a guest on Monday’s episode of Outside the Lines on ESPN to comment on Jason Collins coming out of the closet and becoming the first openly gay player in any of [...]
I had something else this week. It was about jet lag and income taxes. I liked it and was pretty happy to get it up as a return to Pop Art after my unintentional break for my Japan trip. Then some (asshole or group of assholes) blew up the Boston Marathon and suddenly my shit [...]
Dear Art, Welcome to March Madness! We are one week in to the NCAA Men’s Basketball tournament and I have to say things are going great. We’ve had some great Cinderellas including the incredible performance from Florida Gulf Coast University becoming the lowest seed to ever reach the round of 16. We also have marquee [...]
Dear Art, I think I’m approaching a crisis point. It seems like only yesterday I was a young pop star on top of the world but it turns out that wasn’t yesterday at all but in fact several weeks ago. I’ve been in the news lately for all sorts of negative things: I collapsed on [...]
Dear Art, This week marks a grand achievement for our company. We are releasing a SimCity game for the first time in a decade. We’re very excited to move this franchise in to the modern era with a focus on interconnectivity and exchanging resources with other players who have cities in the same region. We’ve [...]
Dear Art, I’ve made a big life decision and I’m hoping you can help me get through it. I announced this week that I would be resigning the papacy at the end of the month and beginning a life dedicated to prayer outside the public eye. I am in ill health and am simply too [...]
Dear Art, I don’t know what’s happened to this world but I’m not sure I want to go on. In the last three weeks movies have come out featuring three of the biggest names in action movies in the last three decades. I am referring to myself, Jason Statham and Arnold Schwarzenegger but out movies [...]
Dear Art, I hope you watched the Inauguration earlier this week so you can understand how outraged I am. That insufferable man in the White House spent his inaugural address preaching political rhetoric instead of reaching across the aisle and offering an olive branch to his opposition. He talked about equal rights for women and [...]
Dear Art, I know you have nothing but contempt for the fabulous awards show we at the Hollywood Foreign Press Association put on once a year, our wonderful Golden Globes. We took some big steps this year to make the show more palatable to you this year most notably having it hosted by Amy Poehler [...]
Dear Art, Where the fuck have you been? -The entire Michael Davis World community Everyone, I am so sorry everyone for that completely unplanned holiday leave of absence. If you all rushed to your computers after opening presents Christmas morning or after shaking off your hangovers on New Year’s Day only to emerge crestfallen that [...]
Dear Art, Well have at it young man. Give me all your jokes and snarky comments about the horrible shooting in Newtown last week. Get on your pulpit and give me a heavy handed rant on gun control or mental health reform or something. Come on funny man show me what you’ve got. Don’t get [...]
Dear Art, I’m sure you’re outraged about the United Nations’ decision to grant non-member observer state status to Palestine last week over the objections of the United States, Israel, Canada, and a bunch of tiny island countries. This is widely seen as a small but pivotal step towards a two-state solution. Is this a [...]
Dear Art, I already know you’re a massive hypocrite, after complaining about the crass consumerism of Black Friday you bought three things over the holiday weekend. Not only that but you took a trip to Las Vegas the nation’s capitol of materialistic excess. I hope you were swiftly punished for your two-faced ways. What do [...]
