82 and Sunny – Part 2

Monday, April 23rd, 2007

- Idol Gives Back, but Seacrest is out

- Nothing like an old Jewish man hounding a 17 year-old for his autograph.  Oh that moment must have been SUREAL! (Scroll down to the embarrassing Sanjay moment)

- So weird: The A-Team ties to raise the dead

- “Japanese men have an expression: ‘If you pay for it, it’s not cheating.’” 

82 and Sunny – Part 1

Monday, April 23rd, 2007

- Happy belated Earth Day everyone!

- I now have officially been in New York too long. I moved to the city about two months AFTER “The Producers” opened, and now it’s gone.  Man, do I feel old.

- Four HR’s in a row. A Sweep of the Yankees.  I may not love the Sox, but I love when any team beats up on those Yanks!

- British Airways steps up its feud with Virgin a notch

Headed to B’More – Part 2

Friday, April 20th, 2007

- I haven’t been watching “The Apprentice” this year. Based on this contestants website – and new deal with Playboy (4th story) – maybe I should have been

- Why does anyone care enough about Lindsay Lohan to break into her email account?  Why do I care enough to post a link to it?

- If you didn’t catch it last night, watch “Stephen Colbert vs. Sean Penn in the Metaphor Off

- Speaking of Colbert, apparently a simple Google search of “Greatest Living American” pulls up Colbertnation.com as the first link. BRILLIANT!

Headed to B’More – Part 1

Friday, April 20th, 2007

- Oh, Alec Baldwin, you horrible, horrible person:  Thanks both Gregg and Stephanie who sent me links to two, but similar articles

- I hope the One and only Spiderman doesn’t get Vertigo as he’s flying down the Streets with No Name in the City of Blinding Lights

- Nice job A-Rod, this is definitely the time of year you want to step it up.  That way when you crumble in the playoffs we can all scoff!

- Pacman advertises his apology: Just enter rehab like a normal celeb

No No – Part 2

Thursday, April 19th, 2007

- Vince Young mocks the “Madden Curse”: “This is a perfect way to start my second season in the NFL.”

- While I like Micahel Ian Black and think he’s funny, has he ever been on a successful show?  If you’re answer is no (of you are asking “Who?”) then why does he keep getting shows?

- Apparently not everybody loves the idea of a “Food Network Award Show”: “…some brain dead douche bags from Ad Sales and ‘creative’ got together and cooked up this hybrid, fur-bearing catfish of a beast, this jackalope of a High Concept…”

- I went to this link to read an article about how HBO made the “7-Minute Soprano’s,” not some random kids.  But I was treated to a delightful David Blaine parody.  Enjoy!

No No – Part 1

Thursday, April 19th, 2007

- I always love a good no-hitter, but the thing I like most about this one is that even though he put a player on base, he made sure to get him out personally

- Jessica Simpson is not having a good week 

- I’m proud to say that I’m excited to see the new “Hairspray” movie.  Although Walken and Travolta kissing kinda scares me

- Finally saw “The Departed” last week and I have to say that the ending left me unsatisfied.  It was solid, but I just felt like they didn’t know how to end it quickly, so they just pulled the trigger. Literally.

Young Out – Part 2

Wednesday, April 18th, 2007

- “Entourage” invaded Ron Jeremy… and not in the good way

- I’m going to call it like I see it: This could be one of the worst movies of all time. I sat through Encino Man… twice.

- The kid who runs this insightful Baseball Card blog used to go to Syracuse.  I think he was my roommate in London…

- If I’m going to go, I want to go in comfort

Young Out – Part 1

Wednesday, April 18th, 2007

- Congrats Brian. You’re the lucky team this year that will have to deal with the Madden Curse.

- If you missed it, here is the Tim Duncan “ejection” video, or as I like to call it, “The end of Joey Crawford”

- I am no longer concerned with Disney and their unrelenting vow to take over the world. Rather I am concerned with the people who support it.  For example: I appreciate that Disney created a whole new brand based off of old characters people were familiar with (brilliant idea, those Disney Princesses).  But I think they have gone coo-coo with a new line of Disney Princess Wedding Dresses.  And the people who will buy them (and you know they will)? COO-COO

- The wired world continues to grow out of hand.  Today’s example? The wi-fi aquarium so you can see the precise moment your fish goes belly up

Legs of Fury – Part 2

Tuesday, April 17th, 2007

- I got a ton of emails about this one today: Will Ferrell goes viral with “The Landlord

- A pain all us Jews must endure…

- FINALLY!.. Your chance to speak out on which celebrity is more famous than another

- Chappelle is funny, no doubt. But for over six hours? I don’t think anyone would be funny for that long.

TUESDAY “YOU TUBE” BONUS: Aaron Sorkin takes a stab at Late Night TV
