(TrendHunter.com) While I love love Apple’s MacBook Air, I can’t help but feel iffy about its anti-productive lack of a CD/DVD drive, an Ethernet port, and its lonely usb port. Air now has some serious competition in the form of the new Lenovo Thinkbad X300. Coming just a tad thicker (0.92 inches at its thickest comp…

You can only be a weight-loss spokesperson for so long—at some point, you’ve lost the weight, and keeping it off becomes the best-case scenario. Thus it is for Kirstie Alley, who has officially left her job as a big loser for Jenny Craig, according to People magazine. Kirstie had a nice run, but the writing was on the wall ever since J.C. signed the much cooler Valerie Bertinelli. The company’s vp of marketing, Scott Parker, tells People: “Now that Kirstie has ‘passed her maintenance baton’ to Valerie, you’ll see a new campaign with a new celebrity client emerge, in 2008 … one that promotes health with Queen Latifah.†Parker does not address in any way the National Enquirer’s theory about why Alley was let go. Nor does he explain what on earth a “maintenance baton†is. UPDATE: Alley has announced she will launch her own weight-loss brand in 2009.

Yes! Finally! After months of sideline sniping and passive aggression, the showdown between Hillary Clinton and Barack Obama has devolved into everyone’s favorite 30-second bloodsport: attack ads! It was with a carnivorous zeal that I clicked to watch the first volley, fired across the Wisconsin airwaves by Clinton after Obama’s recent primary sweep. Would she bust out a classic smear like “Wrong for America!†or “What else is he hiding?†No, sadly it’s just some inside baseball about him skipping a debate. Then he responded with something along the lines of “Whatever.†Just when I was about to pass out from boredom, Clinton shot back, accusing Obama of resorting to attack ads. Now that’s the kind of irony and revisionist history that’s going to make for some great mudslinging! I’ll give bonus points to the first candidate who gets carried away and calls the other one a “liberal nobody’s-senator-at-all.â€

At the end of Sunday's Pro Bowl (the official end of football), my wife turned and with a gleam in her eye said, "Ok, time to move the trailer."
