WTF is on NBC right now? Some tired middle-aged blonde is singing, a guy's blowing a shofar, and two homoerotic half naked dudes are feeling each other up: one dude has a star and crescent emblazoned on his bare chest representing Islam, the other a Magen David on his. WTF? This is supposed to represrnt peace in the Middle East or something? No wonder they hate us.

I would be fully willing to offer up Madonna as a human sacrifice for world peace.

I thought the Madonna's kid was the human (yet divine) sacrifice for Peace in the next world.

Is the blonde supposed to be the Madonna? So this si some interpretive dance thing about the big three monotheisms? WTF?

It is entirely about Madonna seeking attention.

Ignore it, it might go away.

I don't think it's about the Madonna or religion anymore, now it's gay dudes on retro-70s roller skates or something.

Life is a mystery. Everyone must stand alone.

In 20 years, it will be Britney.

Where have you been? Madonna is a political genius. Ages ago, she realized that, if we really want to give those North Koreans what for, we should lay tefillin and swordfight our yetser hara'.

The woman plays a black Les Paul!!! ... and anyone who can rip through four different barre chords at second position without looking even once has my respect.

My joints ached just watching her. Sure, it was probably downtuned but still!

But was it plugged in? I mean, maybe someone taught her to play, but it's still a prop. Is she writing her own songs yet?

Guitars are wireless nowadays, and yes, she was most definitely playing it. I didn't say was a good guitarist; that's how I know it wasn't just a prop.
