- Thanks Gregg for the following links today: Chad Johnson, horse beater; Harry Potter, Amusement Park ride 

- Ah, can I just tell you how much I love it when a networks partners with an advertiser in a unique way?  Check out Arby’s “The Lunch Break Show” which features clips from NBC shows.

- Apple expands its world dominance… again

- The Price is about to be a little less lower… let the countdown begin.

- Geez, A-Rod.  Just when the New York City was starting to like you again, you go and do this. Ok, fine, so maybe we like you more now…

- Wait, Tony Romo was nailing Carrie Underwood? It makes sense, seeing as he’s not quite Tom Brady on the field either…

- The Family Feud brings a whole new meaning to ‘home edition’

- Did you know they still make “R” rated trailers? Check out the ones for Superbad and Knocked Up (shocking, they’re both Judd Apatow movies)

Good to be Back… Ok, Not Really – Part 2

Wednesday, May 30th, 2007

- Goodbye Kevin Reilly: You and your love of FNL will be missed

- Hey Kobe: Da’Nile ain’t just a river in Egypt, buddy. You shouldn’t have let them trade Shaq, you shouldn’t have thrown him under the bus, and you shouldn’t be such a ball hog.  It’s all on you and any team that wants you is doing to sell jerseys and seats, not win the “big one”

- It is sad how true this article could be. And yes, I’m speaking for myself too.

- Taylor Hicks is dating a female version of himself. Not cool.

- I love game show’s that decide if someone should live or keep on dying.

- Oooooh… Bendable TV… for all my TV watching in the corner of a room.  Ohhhh….

- 24: Day Zero looks at Jack in animation

- I know that on this message board I have given a lot of love to Cracked Magazine’s online site.  Well I thinking about asking it out on a date now: A top 15 list of cartoon theme songs… WITH VIDEO!

Thursday, May 24th, 2007

- Welcome to the adult world: Mary Kate Olsen (alas, no Ashley) is joining the cast of Weeds

- Remember My Buddy (MY BUDDY! MY BUDDY AND ME!!!)? I don’t either.  Anyhow, there is a great site out now called Gas Buddy that will show you the cheapest gas in your area (if you find something under $3, let me know)(thanks Steph for the link)

- Any Sandberg got Natalie Portman? NOOOO!

- Congrats to Papa Sherman this weekend on his Bar Mitzvah this weekend – Mazol Tov!

I’m off tomorrow and taking a VERY long weekend.  You’re next post will pop up in the morning of Wednesday, May 30.  Enjoy the holiday everyone.

Much Needed Time Off – Part 1

Thursday, May 24th, 2007

- If you’re not a Lost fan, you’re missing some fantastic water cooler conversation this morning. I cannot WAIT until next Feb (ugh) to see what happens next.

- Even though I’m sure most people saw it yesterday, here is a link to the Rosie/Lizzy Hasselbeck “argument.”

- Cleveland hates on Baseball Tonight. Relax, CLEVELAND – if that’s your real (city)
name – hating on BT is like hating on Meet the Press. You just don’t do it. (thanks Brock for the link)

- Ah yes, THIS is why I love (and miss) Syracuse so much (thanks Brian for the link)

Oy – Part 2: SPECIAL GUEST BLOGGER

Wednesday, May 23rd, 2007

Please welcome our special guest blogger for this afternoon, Mr. B. SMOOTH…

- Like Jim Carrey said in “Dumb and Dumber”. So you’re telling me there’s a chance… 

- Matt Leinart’s new nickname should be “handsy”. I think whoever drafts him in fantasy, should refer to him by that name.

- More reasons for Boston fans to hate Arod. The only thing more embarrasing would have been if he tried to swipe at the ball…oh wait. Never mind

- Number 11 on this list should be Nick Canepa, for writing such a dumb list. (Crap. I just realized somebody else wrote that on the message board.)

- In order to boost sales, Playstation is considering selling a PS3 with an 80 GB hard drive.  Cause that’s why people are buying the Wii… the bigger hard drive.  Who lets these idiots run these companies???

- Trump is off his rocker: Apparently he called Mark Cuban a “fucking loser.”  Yeah, the man is worth millions, owns a HD channel and a professional basketball team. Yeah, I should be as big a loser.

- On his 25th birthday, Apollo has won gold, silver and bronze medals in the Olympics and now is the Dancing with the Stars Champion.  On a related note, my back gave out on me on my 28th birthday…

- In case anyone is wondering, Pam Anderson is still hot.

Forgettable Fire – Part 2

- Larry David needs to go back to HBO… and NOW

- No more Stone at NBC: I have to admit, I’m kinda sad about this. I’ll miss that deep voice that always told me news with gravitas.

- My, oh my, how the 24 has fallen… even the Bachelor beat you. This may be the saddest day of Jack Bauer’s life.

- A look at the new Terminator show.  Looks, um, ok-ish.

- This collectable Silver Surfer item can be yours for just $0.25!

- A first look at the new (and creapier) Joker. I think I’m going to miss Jack

- Loving my new PS3 (let the congratulatory emails begin)
