The Nittany Turkey

Primarily about Penn State football, this is a tale told by idiots, full of sound and fury, signifying nothing.

The Sopranos on Health Care

Posted on April 4, 2006 Written by The Nittany Turkey

The Sopranos have taken a stand on the health insurance morass and I love it. If the rest of Hollywood were to spend more time exploring real issues instead of conducting an annoyingly arrogant vendetta against the current Administration in Washington, they might actually be performing a public service instead of self-service. Tony Soprano’s (James Gandolfini) current plight carries with it the message that not only anonymous middle class Americans but also Mafia dons have major problems with the health care system. Bada bing!

I Guess the World Didn’t End After All!

Posted on November 14, 2005 Written by The Nittany Turkey

Last week, the Turkey reviewed the first part of “Category 7: The End of the World,” a CBS mini-series. In that review, I declared that this piece of trash wasn’t worth any more of my time. So, I’m back. I lied. My mendacity as a reviewer thus exposed, I’ll launch right into the review of Part Two.

Whodat Turkey?

The Nittany Turkey is a retired techno-geek who thinks he knows something about Penn State football and everything else in the world. If there's a topic, we have an opinion on it, and you know what "they" say about opinions! Most of what is posted here involves a heavy dose of hip-shooting conjecture, but unlike some other blogs, we don't represent it as fact. Read More…
