Orange Peel

- Britney Spears, people… white trash extraordinaire!

- Orange Peel Vote: Who’s the hotter Transformer’s girl? Megan Fox or Rachael Taylor? (PS: Fox’s back tattoo reads: “We will all laugh at gilded butterflies.” What the f does that mean???)

- Simpson mania continues to dominate the press… even the gay press…

- Haters to the left… (go to :28 seconds…)

Finally today, a little something for the weekend. In honor of the opening of 80’s sensation Transformers, enjoy this image of the future: Jason, Halloween ‘08:

- Thinking about you Nick: Stay safe out there…

- Got an advance look at Transformers last night… if you like action movies and are impressed with cars turning into robots, then you will DEFINTIELY enjoy this movie. I did…

- This whole Chris Benoit’s murder/suicide thing is getting weirder: “n anonymous user operating a computer traced to Stamford, Conn. — home to World Wrestling Entertainment — posted an entry to pro wrestler Chris Benoit’s biography on Wikipedia.org announcing the death of his wife Nancy at least 13 hours before police in suburban Atlanta said they found her body…”

- From the “People will do anything to get noticed” files, comes the couple that will only communicate via… wait for it… M… and… M’s….  

- Let the line begin for the iPhone (seriously, you kidding me with this?)

- Come on Al… the people love you. Time to return and take back YOUR White House…

- Paris, PLEASE crawl back in the hole you came from…

- FIRST LOOK: Stephen Colbert’s Tek Jansen comic books 

- Spice Girls… REUNITE!

- More than eats the eye: Transformers at BK

- Vince McMahon tries to pre-empt steroid allegations: Good luck to ya Vince, but this may be a losing battle.

- When Apple failed…

- As if New York isn’t annoying enough to live in…

- The Oprah Store opens in Chicago: I can’t wait to get my very own Oprah doll…

- Looks like Die Hard 4 might be pretty good… “’Live Free or Die Hard’ is the sort of movie you approach like last year’s ‘Basic Instinct 2’ or ‘Rocky Balboa’… yet for a pure summer power trip, it’s a decent throwback to the pure-brawn heyday of Willis” (courtesy of Brian: The original Die Hard trailer)

- Since there are still mysteries that are unsolved, it just makes sense to bring them back. 

- A first look at the G-d Machine….

- Ah Maxim… is there any magazine better for man-boys?

- If Ripken says he should be an All-Star, then he should be an All-Star

- Gee wonder why his jaw hurts… 

- And Ferrell continues the milking of Pearl… It’s called overkill Will. Didn’t SNL teach you anything? Actually, this showing marks Pearl’s final performance. In the press release she was quoted as saying ““My ventures as an actor on the internet have been rewarding and spiritually fulfilling, but now I must look to broader challenges as I approach my 26th month. I shall always reflect upon these days with much fondness, and also, I have no idea what I just said, and I want banana-nana and the upside down show.”

- I hope Nancy Grace’s new babies never get kidnapped. Then she’ll have to blame herself…

- I’ll admit it: I really like the song “Delilah.” I love it even more now that I know it is based on a real person named Delilah…

- The Sox Go Pops: Thanks Brian for the link and the tip that “Brock is definitely going to buy this…”

- Paris is freed. And the world continues to spin…. Shocking…

- Since I can’t play (stupid Viacom), here is the online World Series of Pop Culture game that wins me nothing, but gives me hours of fun…

- Because Isaiah seems like such an angel, NBC is considering giving him a TV show… Good ol’ NBC: Never saw a disaster they didn’t want to be part of.

- When someone says you look like a “transsexual rodeo clown,” you should really rethink your outfit…

- The Transformers get reanimated next year on Cartoon Network. Um, what if this movie tanks?

- Comedy Central starts milking the cash cow a little early…

- Drama, smut, a mansion, bunnies and boobs. It had to be a movie someday.

- Scott: How long till Draft Weekend? We may need to check and make sure our hotel is still there…

EDITOR ERROR: I’m told that the FunnyorDie.com/James Franco spot I put up last week didn’t link right. Sorry about that. You should be able to get it here or you can go to FunnyorDie.com and search “James Franco” (it’s the only clip from that search). It’s an hilarious outtake (I think) from Knocked Up. 

- McLain returns, but will it be good? Check out the first 8 minutes of the movie here

- Don’t be hating on my PS3… it might one day save your life! (Thanks Gregg for the tip)

- Scott: You’re really milking this cow aren’t you?

- Pam is still cute, even as a weird 3-D video game character with an oversized head…
