Without a doubt Mel Gibson has been digging himself into a pretty deep hole with his racial comments and misogynistic comments. Women all over the country are outraged - vowing to never again watch a Mel Gibson movie.  Meanwhile Charlie Sheen remains the highest paid actor on TV. The same Charlie Sheen who: "Accidentally" shot his girlfriend Kelly Preston in the arm in 1990. Knocked his girlfriend Brittany Ashland to the ground so hard she lost consciousness.

Was arrested and taken to the slammer on Christmas Day in 2009 for assaulting his wife Brooke Mueller.

Sometimes the drain manifests a nose - Sometimes the smiley face is wearing a patch - Our drain seems to be telling us to smile - and the whole world will smile with us. What is your drain saying to YOU?
