Hollywood Logos

In a world - where Hollywood movie studios all have recognizable logos - this is THEIR story...

Sean Avery

NHL Hockey player - and all-around asshat - Sean Avery - refers to his former girlfriends Elisha Cuthbert (the daughter on 24) and Rachel Hunter as "sloppy seconds".

Hilarity does NOT ensue, but indefinite suspension does.

The Philly Accent

Let's take a second today to celebrate the Philly Accent - and it's twisted cousin, the Baltimore Accent.

Big Show vs. Brock Lesnar

Today, we look at one of my favorite moments in pro wrestling history.

Big Show (Paul Wight, above) is wrestling Brock Lesnar on Smackdown in 2003. Both guys are BIG (Wight is legitimately over 7 feet, and easily weighs over 400 pounds here).

What happens at 2:45 is what wrestling is all about. (The reaction of the crowd - and the announcers - is priceless).

Note: Brock Lesnar left the WWE not long after this match, and recently won the UFC (legit) Heavweight Title.

Chess

I like to play chess.

My ability is slightly above that of the average chimpanzee, but I like to play anyway. I just start up Chessmaster 9000, and choose an opponent with a rating lower than Circuit City's stock price.

Here are some nice online resources for learning and playing chess.

Instant Karma

When it comes to music, there was no one more interesting than John Lennon.

Unfortunately, there were no two people less interesting than John Lennon and Yoko Ono.

Still, this was a good one.

Wal-Mart

Each year in the U.S., on the day after Thanksgiving, retail stores open their doors early - and holiday shoppers run through like savages.

Not sure why.

This year, somebody got trampled to death.

Society has hit a new low.
