Car Crash That's a Nail Biter
This story happened in Salt Lake City, home for all your salt needs (and all your multipe wives). Lee Redmond is a 68-year-old lady who was in a car crash. Now, it would be fun to speculate as to how …
Football Hero and Football Zero
I was watching the Tonight Show last night. Conan is so funny, and it was great seeing him talk to the Chula Vista all-star baseball team. One 13-year-old pitcher is 6'2" and almost as tall as O'Brien. The accomplishment of …
Roller Coaster of Love
I heard a few weeks ago that someone died while rehearsing for an Indiana Jones event at Disneyworld. The stuntman fell onto a stage. And I believe Disneyworld has had a few other deaths recently, but I can't recall what …
Two Idiots Suing -- The Miss California Edition
Back in 2007, a robbery occured in a Michigan store. The guy got 8 to 22 years (huh?). Now he's suing the store, because when he robbed the place, an employee shot him as he was fleeing. Now, that's a …
The Basterds at Corvette Diner
I couldn't believe how long it took me to hit Corvette Diner since it moved from Hillcrest to Liberty Station in Point Loma. I always see it there when I go to Wine Steals across the street (our new favorite …
A Day in Traffic Court
All things considered, traffic court could've been worse. I woke up at 9:00 a.m. and took a quick shower. Since I was just going to court to plead "not guilty", I knew the judge was just going to issue a …
Kissing Cousins (errr, mothers) and Interracial Dating
In a Dear Abby column from a few days ago, a woman talked about being concerned for her nephen and how he always hugged and kissed on his mother. He's a teenager now and it seems weird to her. People …
Anyone Going to Street Scene?
I was at the very first Street Scene. I loved the mix of bands that year, although, it did lean towards more of my classic rock taste. I saw Eric Burdon of the Animals (I'm looking forward to seeing him …
Prison Inmates (Dedicated to Dominick Dunne)
I like to mix it up with these blogs, although often times, it's me ranting about our legal system. With Dominick Dunne passing, I figured this rant would be dedicated to him. He's an author who went from writing novels …
Banned on the Run
In the LA Times on Saturday, there was a story about two buskers in England who were banned from performing for two years. The problem the Birmingham City Council had, was that the men angered residents with late-night and out-of-tune …
Marilyn Monroe -- Lives Her Life Like a Body in a Box
When that crazy, rich reality show guy killed the model...you immediately think of the Anna Nicole-Smith and Marilyn Monroes. People that died under weird circumstances at the hand of shady men involved in their lives. Well, the AP had a …
James Cotton Meets James Cotton
Someone left a message on my machine asking why I haven't done a blog about my dog in awhile. I thought about it, wondering if there was anything interesting that happened. My girlfriend had been taking care of a huge …
A Sunday Picnic -- Free From the Computer
I met this cute woman from Haiti last night. We were having this great conversation, and something about an actor came up and she said "Whip out your iphone." My girlfriend had to explain to her how horrible I was …
Sports Shortz -- Mr. Cab Driver Edition
I love that Lenny Kravitz song, and it seemed like an appropriate title for this blog. But before I get to the cabbies and athletes mixing it up, what's the deal with the Raiders? We've known for years that everyone …
Kids in the News -- Some Famous, Some Unknown
I heard Miley Cyrus had another stalker. I think she's up to three at this point. And as scary as that is, I really don't care. Because her parents have done so much wrong with how they've guided her career. …
Reality Shows -- From Brazilian Politicians to our own Octomom
When I heard about a Brazilian TV show host that was being accused of running a death squad for ratings, I didn't give it much thought. I figured it was in another country, and I didn't really care. I did …
Milwaukee Mayor in a Fight, Cops and Shoplifters in Flight
I think I just did a blog a week ago, about someone in a bank chasing a robber and promptly being fired. Well, it's happened again. This time it was a student, working at Best Buy in Colorado. He tackled …
Our Idiotic Country -- Criminals Getting Paid
I seem to rant about this in a blog at least once a week. But hey...it's a cathardic feeling to type about all these losers that get to benefit from our society. Of course, put them in other countries, and …
Famous Faces in the News -- Dylan, Pitino, Phelps, George Michael
Jesse Jackson says something stupid about once a week. Well, I'm guessing he says something stupid daily. It's once a week that the rest of us get to hear what it is. College basketball coach Rick Pitino got into some …
Babies, Breast Feeding, and More
I was thinking a lot about breast feeding today. It's not the usual thing guys think of when they see womens breasts. Even if you have a baby, I'm sure you don't look at your wife in a nice outfit …
