Anne Heche Loses First Round of Divorce Battle!

I don't know why, considering I don't care, but reading that made me happy.

Sports, Weather, Traffic and.... Monsters.

I'd imagine for someone wanting to be a reporter their whole life, getting a job on the local newscast is very exciting.

Hard hitting coverage! Expose! Using your communication skills you honed for years at that crappy college station will now pay off!

Well, we have an anchorperson. Weatherman? Check. Sports? Got it.

"Our own Nessie hunter"? Hey! That's spot's available. Here's your raincoat... go get 'em!

I'd imagine for someone wanting to be a reporter their whole life, getting a job on the local newscast, in Scotland, that is a real fear.

An amateur scientist believes he could have captured the Loch Ness Monster - on videotape.

Hollow Earth?


Trip proposed to centre of Earth via Arctic hole

This time next year, Kentucky based physicist and futurist Brooks Agnew hopes to board the commercially owned Russian icebreaker Yamal in the port of Murmansk, and to sail into the polar sea just beyond Canada's Arctic islands.

A million dollar expedition to be the first guy to yell "ECHO! ECHO! ECHO! ECHO!" into a hole, and then be eaten by the subterranean yetis.

Make Me Fries!

23 Ska-Doo! Moving Pictures!

Here is a site with some excellent old films shot in New York City by Thomas Edison and Biograph cameramen around the turn of the century.

These are just little snippets of what life was like back then.

Check out the Flatiron Building shorts. You can see horse and buggy mixed with electric street cars. And you thought traffic jams were bad now.

It's just wild that you can return to that same exact spot today, over 100 years later and look upon the Flatiron and it's corners, and see they haven't changed all that much.

100 years from now? Maybe.

200 years? Not without scuba gear!

This is part of the Celluloid Skyline: New York and The Movies exhibit, now at New York's Grand Central Station.

Meltdown? What's It About?

Saturday, June 2nd on SCIFI:

SCI FI Premiere: Meltdown

Casper Van Dien must defend his loved ones when an apocalyptic heatwave turns Los Angeles into a deadly inferno.






Shit sandwich.


Oh, and the following Saturday?

SCI FI Premiere: Ice Spiders

Giant mutant spiders go on a deadly feeding frenzy at a ski resort.


This is the same channel that airs the great Battlerstar Galactica?!

You know, if Casper Van Dien would just bring some of his heatwave, those pesky ice spiders wouldn't have a chance. It's be like Ski School, only less funny.

Support Your Local Reptoid

George W. Bush, Dick Cheney, and Donald Rumsfeld (without their more familiar disguises)
hard at work planning the destruction of mankind.

The Bicycle Tree

Almost a century ago, a young boy from the village Brig o’ Turk, Scotland, left his bicycle against a tree in the yard of a blacksmith. The next day he was off to fight in World War I.

He never returned.

And so the bicycle stayed there, and the tree grew. Eventually it absorbed the bicycle, and it can still be seen today, almost completely eaten by the tree.



And now the villagers are trying to protect their iron-eating tree, which has also absorbed a ship's anchor and chain, and a bridle bit, all objects left there by the blacksmith over the years.

Something stuck me about this tree. I guess it reminded me about the Giving Tree, but it's kind of a Taking tree. The boy never returned from the war but the tree took his bicycle, and held on to it, for all to see years and years after he'd gone.

I don't know, I guess it's kind of mythological. Kind of nice.

Safari Jackpot

These folks went on safari and got footage better than any wildlife show.



It's 8 minutes... but worth every minute.

What's A Guy Gotta Do?


Give him his own public access cable show!

Lost Season Finale


Did ya see it?

Awesome. Awesome. Awesome.

I'm proud to say I've tuned in each week and loved it each week.

To all those people who grew tired that "nothing happened" and "it's not good anymore", well, I liken you to mental idiots. I hope you stop watching (Unless, of course, you're a Nielsen family, then .... hello! Just punch in the numbers please) and don't pick it up again next year.

Because those of us who love the show and KNEW it would deliever, we don't want to hear your crying anymore.

Lost rules.

Didn't see it? Catch it on ABC.com.

Life Finds A Way



Female hammerhead sharks can reproduce without having sex, scientists confirm.

The birth of the hammerhead (of the bonnethead species, Sphyrna tiburo) at Henry Doorly was as tragic as it was puzzling.

The new pup was soon killed by a stingray before keepers could remove it from its tank.



Those stingrays can be real bitches, can't they? Crocodile Hunter, Jesus fish... is no one safe?

Don Rickles



Last week I went and saw Don Rickles live, being interviewed by Regis Philman.

I was 4th row, front and center. I can't remember the last time I laughed that hard. Of course, I stuck out like a young Irish guy surrounded by older Jewish couples, but then I guess I know how Regis felt.

Don Rickles is a little bit older than I remember (He's 81!). Walks a little slower too. But he is still sharp as a knife. He got up to that microphone and his mouth never stopped. It was awesome. It was hilarious.

Don has a new book out, which I highly recommend. In today's overwrought and saturated politically correct nonsense world, he will surely pass into legend of being able to make fun of everyone, and everyone laughing with him.




One story I really liked: When Don was just starting out at a small club in L.A., he befriended a bartender. The man was a little older and not making much of a living. Don liked him and said if he ever made it big, he would take him with him. When Don landed his gigs at the Sands Casino in Las Vegas (where he met Frank Sinatra), he called his bartender friend and told him to pack his bags.

He was with Don, until he died, for 42 years.

Regis brought this up during the interview and it was the only time Don got a little choked up, saying that he wished he was here tonight.

Fantastic moment.

Except for one thing.

The idiot sitting next to me who decided to eat a DING DONG right as the interview started and then proceed to lick his fingers, wipe them on his shorts and keep looking at his cell phone during the evening.

F'n pig.

Good Bye Asshole!




Goodbye Jerry Falwell! Goodbye!!!

I Think We're Dead

Patrice O'Neil RULES



It really is getting ridiculous.

I'm cancelling my XM subscription.

They suspended Opie and Anthony. I PAY a monthly fee to listen to satellite radio because I like to hear UNCENSORED COMEDY.

That means comedy with FUCK, SHIT, CUNT, ASS, DICK, TITS, BUNGHOLE, LABIA, TWAT, PUSSY, COCK, CUM, DONKEY PUNCH, ANGRY PIRATE, CLEAVLAND STEAMER, JIMMY NORTON, JIZZ FACED WHORE, NAPPY HEADED HOE, ASSHOLE, DICKWAD, ASSFUCK, SHITHEAD, TWIG AND BERRIES, HOW'S YOUR FATHER, WHO'S YERDADDY, RAPE, PORN, PORN STARS and POOP.

Why?

Because 99.9% of the time I find it funny.

When I don't, oh well... I move on.



Ok, I'm lying, I find it funny 100% of the time.


But Patrice O'Neil has is right in this interview when that CUNT says "The people are fed up" and he asks "WHAT PEOPLE?!"

She never answers.

She cunt. I mean, she can't.

Because it's a small number of dorks who never had their say when growing up suddenly find that they can. And unfortunately their getting press and our media is giving them the time.

I wish I had a billion dollars. I'd start my own news network. And people like her would never have their day. Because it is phony. It is a farce.

It is hurting our rights to SPEAK FREE.

What Can You Buy For $456 Billion?


What does $456 billion buy?

"According to World Bank estimates, $54 billion a year would eliminate starvation and malnutrition globally by 2015, while $30 billion would provide a year of primary education for every child on earth. At the upper range of those estimates, the $456 billion cost of the war could have fed and educated the world's poor for five and a half years."

You know, it's lunch time... but I'm not hungry. I'm a little sick to my stomach.

Hunt for real life 'were-rabbit'

Grower Jeff Smith, 63, said: "This is no ordinary rabbit. We are dealing with a monster."

"It is absolutely massive. I have seen its prints and they are huge, bigger than a deer. It is a brute of a thing."


Mr Smith, who has kept an allotment for 25 years, added: "We have two lads here with guns who are trying to shoot it, but it is clever.

YIKES!

For Death Awaits You All With Nasty, Big, Pointy Teeth!


Ferocious hare attacks...


VIENNA – A possibly rabid hare attacked a 74-year-old woman and her 78-year-old husband in the Austrian city of Linz, police said in a statement on Monday.
The crazed animal launched itself at the woman while she was hanging her laundry in the garden, biting her foot and causing her to fall.

The victim fled into the house while her husband called the police and tried to scare off the attacking hare. Police officers saw the man “battling the hare” when they arrived at the scene, according to the statement said.

The animal was shot dead when it tried to attack one of the policemen. Its remains were being examined for potential rabies infection, police said. –Sapa-dpa

Would You Like To Swing On A Star?

When I was a wee lad, my friends and I built a swing back the woods. It was on top of a steep hill and swung over a ravine filled with thorny bushes. We'd steal the older kid's liquor, take a few tugs and swing. Occasionally fall. That always hurt, but no one got really hurt.

That's nothing compared to this.



The world's highest swing has been set up on an 1,100ft TV tower in China.

The swing is set on a 700ft high viewing platform on the tower in Harbin city, Heilongjiang province.

Participants sit on the steel seat and swing out over the city, beyond the edge of the platform.

The swing is called "Game for brave people", reports Harbin Daily.

The tower is the world's second-highest steel tower, after the Kiev tower in Ukraine.

A True Work Of Art


Rush Limbaugh billboard near I-83 defaced

I love this.

And then I love it even more, from the article:

Robert Murrow, a spokesman for the city's Department of Public Works, saw the vandalism as he drove to work this morning on I-83 near the Guilford Avenue exit. He called The Sun, saying that someone had poured paint on the image of Limbaugh's face.


"It looks like they took globs of paint and threw it on his face. It looks great. It did my heart good," said Murrow, who admittedly is not a Limbaugh fan.


Robert Murrow, you are the man.

Mystery Of The Mind


Autistic Man Draws Near-Perfect Panorama of Rome - Watch more free videos

This is unbelievable.

A British man with Autism flies over Rome once in a helicopter and is able to recreate a huge, near-perfect panorama of the city. It takes him three days to complete his drawing.

I love learning about these savants. And I thought the musical ones were wild - what this man does, down to the detail of windows and columns... is just amazing.

Strange this is, the doctors and scientists that studies these folks believe that we are all capable of doing such feats, but somewhere in our evolution those parts of the mind shut down or were blocked off. For people like this guy, those parts are open, Buuut, other parts, like learning how to tie your shoes, are not.

One hell of trade off. If you ever could.

Just A Little Off Course

"This isn't Halifax!"

Arctic seal captured in Ft. Lauderdale


The seal sighting is extremely rare.


''This is the first time we have had a bearded seal show up in Florida,'' said Kim Amendola, a spokeswoman for the NOAA Fisheries Service. ``Their primary habitat is north of Newfoundland.''


Hey, this water is WARM! - probably his reasoning.



Oh, You're Early!


Welcome Andrea.
Three weeks early! I think it is a sure sign of a wet hot American summer.

Everybody Sing Along...



According to Barry William's autobiography, he was high as a kite in the scene with the canoe.


I can't stop watching it. Freakin' hilarious.

Killer Vultures!




A flock of some 100 vultures killed a cow and her newborn calf, the latest in a series of attacks in which carrion-eaters get so hungry they set upon on live animals, a Spanish farmer's union said Thursday.

It said a rancher alerted police after seeing the birds swarm on a cow that had just given birth and kill both animals.

"There was nothing he could do to stop them," the office said in a statement.

"We have seen them land 100 meters from people. They are not afraid of anything," he said in a telephone interview.

Holy shit!

Soon they will be grabbing babies from baby carriages!

Watch the skies...

The Alphabet Of Brooke Shields

'Alphabet of Brooke Shields' – what does it mean?



This small bit of grafitti has been popping up all over London for the past few weeks, and is puzzling the living daylights out of everyone who spots it. From Tower Bridge to Wembley Park, it's everywhere. There are even reports of it appearing as far away as Hamburg and the Netherlands.




Ooh I love a good mystery!




This reminds me of these tiles that have been found all over U.S. cities:





What Is It?
No explaination was ever found for those.


But as for Alphabet Of Brooke Shields? Dunno. Maybe a band's name. And their new record is about to drop, yo.


Anyway... if it's all over London... it's possible it will show up in New York this summer. So be on the look out, then ad your sighting to this site.

Storm the size of Earth.

Nasa's New Horizons spacecraft has returned stunning views of the Jupiter system captured during a recent flyby.

I like to keep up on the New Horizons. It's on it's way to Pluto. My name is on it. True! I got a certificate and everything.

Yea, I know. It means absolutely shit.
