No wonder Led Zeppelin was so great. They sold their souls to the devil apparently. If you listen to part of Stairway to Heaven backwards, you can hear some pretty concrete evidence. I suggest reading the backwards lyrics while you listen because it just makes it that much more concrete. And the Britney Spears – Hit Me Baby One More Time is hilarious. I knew she always wanted me. Too late she’s beat as hell now thanks to having sex with that creepy ass dirtball of a husband. What a waste of life. Oh sorry, this is all about Stairway backdards. No Stairway? Denied!

Peter: I’d sell my soul to be famous.
Satan: We’ve got a live one. Peter Griffin.
Assistant: No good, sir. It seems he already sold his soul once in 1977 for Bee Gees tickets and then again in 1983 for half a mallomar.

I think I’m nauseous.

I just pulled the trigger on my new computer. It took over a year to do it, but I should have it within a week. Well then I gotta build it. I’ll update more once I get it all together. It’s gonna be sweet. I hope it’s sweet enough that I won’t spend any more unnecessary money at all until August. What’s in August? What’s in August you ask? Oh no, you’re not getting that information from me that easily. You’ll have to wait until August for that one. But I already know Good. Don’t tell anyone. This is the first post without a picture in a long time. I’m sorry. I can keep posting pictures of women if you guys want. I’ll take requests. Anything for my people.

Maria Sharapova and Wimbledon

I’ve enjoyed watching tennis for quite some time now. I vividly remember being introduced to Maria Sharapova as she tore it up last year, creating a huge, yet fantastic, upset. I mean, if you don’t like watching tennis, is there any better reason to watch Wimbledon over these next 2 weeks? Or break the law for that matter? What? You say she’s 18 now? Oh well… we can still watch.

Julie Bowen and Ed

I’ve been watching Ed every day at noon on TBS and aside from missing the show a lot, I’m missing the gorgeous Julie Bowen as well. Tim will know her from Ed of course, but most of you will remember Julie from Happy Gilmore. Ed’s been off for well over a year now, and for some reason Julie hasn’t done much. On IMDb it doesn’t look she has much planned either, but I read she’s joining the cast of Boston Legal. Sure I don’t watch that show, but I might just have to start. And as for Ed, it appears it’s only gonna be on TBS until June 30th and then they’re replacing it with Becker. Becker was funny, but Ed was funnier and much smarter. It was one of the highest quality shows I’ve ever watched and it’s terrible news when Ed can’t even make it in syndication. I don’t know what’s wrong with people. Have I ever mentioned I hate them? I just hope possibly TNT can find room for Ed somewhere in with the rest of their dramas. We don’t need 4 Law & Orders on a night. 3 Law & Orders and an Ed each day would be just fine by me.

Batman Begins

Batman Begins was just amazingly awesome. It will be the best movie of the year. I can’t wait for the next one. It should also be amazing. After Batman & Robin, Batman could have shit on the screen and it would have been better. I always enjoyed Batman Forever before that, but that too had a very cartoony feel that completely strayed from the original 2 movies. Tim Burton did a good job with Batman and Batman Returns. I cannot complain about them. I always loved those movies and after seeing the trailers for this, I was happy the dark feel was going to return. It certainly was dark, the story was exceptional and the movie just worked out great. Christian Bale was a great Batman. Although I’ve never been a big fan of Katie Holmes, I was happy with her performance. She looked pretty good in her scenes. Morgan Freeman is the coolest black dude ever and Liam Neeson is putting together a good summer for himself after one of my other favorite movies of the summer, Kingdom of Heaven. I was just so psyched leaving the theater tonight. Man, it was such a good story watching Batman begin. Just a lot really cool stuff in there. I can’t wait to watch Batman continue because these movies can all be so good if they keep Hollywood away from them.

CHiPs. Well sorta.

Oh man, I was just amazingly close to getting a speeding ticket. I just turned a corner at a red light and started flooring it because I was like a minute from home and it’s Friday and I wanted to reach my destination in less than a minute. So I started flooring it and there’s this motorcycle cop sitting at the next corner just trying to pull people over. And he pointed his gun right at me from like a half a block away and I was like shit. So I hit the mute button on my radio cause it was blasting like mad and I braked, probably too suddenly, but whatever. And I think when I passed him I was going like 41 in a 35. But I broke from like 45 and I was so close to going 55 if I didn’t catch him in time. That’s the closest I’ve been and I don’t wanna get any closer. I hear those radar guns give you cancer.

Iron Mike

Went to watch the Tyson fight on Saturday because they were showing it free at Santa Fe Station. It was one of the most disappointing things I’ve seen in a long time. So rather than talk about that, I’ll post a picture of the way I’m going to remember Iron Mike. Knocking out Michael Spinks in like 91 seconds. Sure I can’t forget the jail and the ear biting, or how Lennox Lewis is the cheapest champion ever and these other last few defeats, but they’re nothing compared to the man who’s almost impossible to beat in Mike Tyson’s Punch Out and who once seemed almost as impossible to beat in real life. I’ll remember the youngest heavyweight champion of all time and sickest, badest man on Earth. I don’t care if some big dopey Irishman beat him on Saturday; there probably still isn’t another man I’d want to have my back if he was pissed off. I definitely wish Mike all the best. The greatness of boxing has certainly paralleled Mike’s own downfall, and it’s just hard to imagine boxing without him.

‘MacGyver’ actor Dana Elcar dies

Dana Elcar, the actor who played MacGyver’s boss Peter Thornton, passed away yesterday at the age of 77. He wasn’t just Mac’s boss. He was his best friend and confidant. For that, he will always be remembered. Just some facts for those of you who did not know too much about Dana: He appeared in the pilot episode, however it was not as Pete Thornton, the man we all came to love. He played Andy Colson, just some lab chief of operations. He didn’t appear as Pete until episode 11, because the writers liked him in the pilot so much, they wanted him around all the time. Dana also began going blind from glaucoma towards the end of the show. By the time it actually ended, he was almost completely blind. Rather than hang up his shoes though, he suggested to the writers that they just write it into his character. Over the final seasons, not only did we watch MacGyver overcome amazing obstacles, we watched Dana face his real life obstacle right in front of the camera. That’s dedication holmes.

Jessica Simpson is friggin hot.

I just watched the new Jessica Simpson – “These Boots Are Made For Walking” video and it just might be the worst song ever; yes, up there even with Fantasia – “Baby Mama”. But let me tell you, there’s no way you’re ever gonna wipe the smile off my face while I’m watching it. It’s one very good video.

And Willy Nelson… wtf are you doing? I don’t really care too much for your music, but you’re way too highly respected in the music industry to be whispering lyrics behind Jessica Simpson’s cracky ass “seductive” voice.

Is it sad that I find this magazine cover for Parents Magazine completely hilarious? When will this stuff ever get old?
