The Olympics are finally over and so much credit can be given to the host country, China. They are exceptional hosts and deserve all the thanks in the world. I wish them good luck in going forward…Just don’t engage a war the U.S. with your 200 million standing army, please.
Alright, now that the blessings and sappy […]

The Olympics are soon over. Update commencing…
USA and China are finally separating in the medal count. Although China has an overwhelming edge over the Americans in Gold medals, the US has the overall total in their favor. China has improved so much from the Olympics prior. It’s obvious that their strategy was to concentrate on […]

US gymnast and beloved cutie pie Alicia Sacramone punches some guy. We all know this girl is a fighter, seeing her battle back from a disappointing experience in Athens. (I’m not exactly sure what I’m talking about, because I didn’t know who Alicia Sacramone was until a few days ago…but I hear she has battled […]

Sigh. You know the old saying about dumb criminals blah blah “nobody ever said criminals were smart” blah blah. I don’t even remember what it is, and it’s not even that good of a saying. But the point is this - crooks are generally not the smartest breed. This story seems to reaffirm that fact.
I […]

China is doing a fantastic job putting on these games. I don’t care if they are Communist. I don’t care if they won’t free Tibet. And I don’t care if they don’t like Joey Cheek, although I never met the guy, Prez G-dub says he’s a good man. Kudos to China for putting on a great spectacle.
Also, […]
So, as previously stated, I want Candace Parker’s shoulders. Not to bite. Not to lick. But to have as my own…in a slightly off-white, salmon color please.

As I sat there watching the Packers begin the 2008 preseason against the Bengals on Monday night I could not help but begin to cheer for my guys in green and gold. Besides having the greatest uniforms in the NFL, the Packers also sport an exciting roster full of young, talented, aggressive players. […]

After a fantastic, glorious, terrorist-free, expensive ($300M!) opening ceremony on Friday night, August 8, 2008 – The 29th Olympic games are under way.
I was literally glued to the television set like they were showing reruns of Saved by the Bell. However, my TV was not showing Zack and Kelly slow dancing outside of the […]

In one of the most gruesome and disturbing stories since…well…EVER, a man was recently arrested for decapitating and cutting up the body of his seat-mate while on a Greyhound bus trip! And no this was not a plot in a horror flick, but, tragically, true life.
One of the really creepy aspects of the story […]

The Greatest Story of 2008: Even Chubby Would Be Proud
Knowing that people out there still love and appreciate “Teen Wolf” brings great joy to my heart, similar to the way Boof made me feel all warm and fuzzy on the inside. And so we have the story of the former Greg White - now Stylez G. White.
Mr. White is a defensive end for the NFL’s Tampa Bay Buccaneers who decided to honor “Wolf Fever” by officially changing his name to Stylez G. White. So it’s not EXACTLY the same way that “Stiles” spelled it in the movie, but close enough. After all, the original Stiles was the inspiration behind the legal name change for Mr. White. In particular, the classic performance of “Win In The End” that plays during the final championship basketball game scene most likely won him over.
Stylez G. White, I salute thee. If I was Scotty, I would tear open a beer with my wolf chompers in your honor. Thank you for passing on the love of an 80’s pop culture legend to a new generation. I know Chubby would be proud.
