  1. My god...Duke preston didn't know JP was in the shotgun.
  2. OJ's probable next address: Ely State Prison -- http://www.doc.nv.gov/esp/ Nevada is considering closing several prisons, so OJ will likely be very cramped.
  3. Do any of the networks have reaction from the Goldman or Brown families yet?
  4. both him and the co-defendant. Buh bye, OJ...
  5. http://www.810whb.com/podcast.asp The host interviewed Dick at the American Century Classic in Lake Tahoe (or as Dick mistakenly calls it, "Lake Taco").
  6. Why are we heavily debating a wild trade idea raised by an unsourced writer who thinks Malcolm Kelly played at Oklahoma State? Don't we have enough masters of unsubstantiation here to make us all happy?
  7. If you have an ARM, like me, first ask your mortgage company for a loan modification. With a good payment history, they should agree to give you a fixed rate at or near regular fixed rates when your reset date arrives. It'll spare you the closing costs and fees of an FHA or whatever. (I looked at a refi in December, and they came back with a deal that would have added $11,000 to my principal! ) Main thing is to keep your eye on the LIBOR figure: http://www.bankrate.com/brm/ratewatch/other-indices.asp. It's the rate most banks and mortgage companies will reset your ARM from (for example: a LIBOR of 2.5, your contract calls for a new rate of 4 points above LIBOR in the final 60 days of your teaser rate = you'll get reset to 6.5 percent for 6 months or so, before another reset comes along). If the LIBOR rate is reasonable when the time comes, you can wait out a refi for another six months to a year, depending on your original terms. Since November or December, the LIBOR's plunged -- I don't know if these Fed rate cuts will affect it or not.
  8. If you want more of Kiera Knightly, see "Domino." A bounty hunter who uses lap dances to corner the prey. And yes, you shouldn't wait it at work.
  9. History 101 ... Point 1 - Wade made the right call on QB. Johnson was playing better at the time (watch that 31-6, '99 finale against the 13-win Colts who were playing for home field advantage), and he won the playoff game for the team... until the special teams blew it. Point 2- It was Bruce DeHaven's special teams, not Ronnie Jones.
  10. Extremely minor spoiler alert for Sunday's episode: I have a co-worker who's long-time friend from the Cleveland theatrical scene has a small walk-on role. He plays a cop who arrests Larry Boy Barese at the world premier of "Cleaver," and has to "drag him out by the neck." I know, not exactly "Carmela Finds Adriana's Body"...
  11. Kind of veering off the topic here, but one issue I think David Chase would be interested in clearing up before the show concludes is how could Tony have escaped the clutches of the Feds given the post/9-11 license the FBI has had to investigate domestic security issues. Even if the FBI has been incompetent enough to lose four or five (six?) informants during the "Papa Bing" RICO sting, surely they would have found ways to more closely watch Tony with sneak and peak warrants, and do things short of sending him to Gitmo for interrogation ("You thirsty, Mr. Soprano?").
  12. Why in these stories do you never read that the glue-sniffing miscreant left behind torn pages of The Economist?
  13. Bo Jackson...for the Tampa Bay Buccaneers, anyway.
  14. $1.5 million - Poof! http://www.huffingtonpost.com/huff-wires/2...e-eddie-griffin
  15. Which completely misses the point of punk. Punk was a reaction to the elevation of rock music as "important," formal and discerning... when it it should have remained loose, llive, experimental and dangerous, like it was in the early days of Elvis, Buddy Holly and Eddie Cochrane. "Talent" is what gave rock and roll the 25-minute keyboard wankings of Rick Wakeman, the drum solo, and Led Zeppelin's "Presence." If musicianship and talent is your barometer of taste, you shouldn't even be llstening to rock. Your CD changer should instead be filled with nothing but Mozart, Charlotte church, Yo Yo Ma, Charlie Parker and the Four Tenors.
  16. Tonight on NFL Live, he just canonized Marshall Faulk into the Jerry Rice-Lawrence Taylor-Joe Montana circle of Olympic Gridiron Gods: "There was nothing Marshall Faulk couldn't do on the football field from the running back position...He was the guy to me who was the catalyst for this multiple position back, who could run it inside, outside and catch the football...He was one of those guys that changed the game, who redefined the position...Marshall Faulk, much like those guys [Rice-Taylor-Montana] changed the way we look at the running back position." Good grief, there's saluting a guy for a great career, and then there's servicing him like a yellow pages escort. Roger Craig was running AND receiving 1,000 yards in each column 20 years ago. Emmitt Smith, Thurman Thomas...and before that, Willis Montgomery, Lawrence McCutcheon, Joe Cribbs, etc. I loved watching Marshall Faulk on Sundays, and he may have been the best, but he was never anything I hadn't seen before.
  17. Scientists to this day have yet to prove it is possible to play Iggy Pop's "You're Pretty Face Is Going to Hell" too loudly or too often. I need it all honey that's no lie I need a lover with a alibi
  18. I thought everyone knew he was gay, already.
  19. One week into free agency....one month till the draft...seems a PERFECT time to start assessing the winners and losers of the offseason.
  20. among others at Tampa's "Foxy Lady" and "Lollipops" establishment. Oh, the humanity (apologies if this strip-club bust story's been posted before.)
  21. A blonde, a brunette and a redhead are stuck on a deserted island. One day on the beach, they find a magic lantern, through which a Genie appears and offers them each one wish (per the cap on 3 wishes per outing). The brunette declares, "I'm sick of this place, and I miss my husband. I want to go home." POOF! The brunette disappears. The redhead steps up. "I'm sick of this place, too. I miss shopping at the mall, partying with my friends and working at my great job. I want to go home, too.", POOF! The redhead disappears. The genie looks at the blonde, who has broken down in tears, sobbing heavily . "What's wrong, dear?" he asks. "I'm lonely, and I miss my friends," the blonde wails. "I wish they were here."
  22. You're way off on the dildo's perfomance in #396. That was clearly a stunt dildo.
  23. Is that old "Bert is Evil" site still up somewhere? The original site owner had a change of heart when he thought how many kids might be seeing it (perhaps a lawsuit was coming his way, as well). Now that was disturbing crap. Bert with Hitler touring Paris; Bert screwing strippers; Bert shooting dope.
