Olympian Gardner survives small plane crash

LAKE CITY - Olympic wrestling champion Rulon Gardner survived a plane crash over the weekend on the Utah-Arizona border.
Gardner and two Utah brothers were rescued by a fisherman Sunday after swimming more than an hour in 44-degree water and spending the night without shelter

Meanwhile I walked a block to the store complaining in a snowstorm to buy a 12 pack of Coke. AND had to carry it back.....a block.

" .........You won’t find it in the Guinness Book of World Records, but Andre the Giant holds the world record for the largest number of beers consumed in a single sitting. These were standard 12-ounce bottles of beer, nothing fancy, but during a six-hour period Andre drank 119 of them. It was one of the few times Andre got drunk enough to pass out, which he did in a hallway at his hotel. His companions, quite drunk themselves, couldn’t move the big man. Fearing trouble with cops, they stole a piano cover from the lounge and draped it over Andre’s inert form. He slept peacefully until morning, unmolested by anyone. Perhaps the hotel people thought he was a piece of furniture.

Think about it: 119 beers in six hours. That’s a beer every three minutes, non stop. That’s beyond epic. It’s beyond the ken of mortal men. It’s god-like. ......"

Original Guns N' Roses to reform?

Slash's Ju Ju Racketeers Road Crew?

02/20/2007 3:00 PM, Yahoo! MusicDotmusic

The seminal Guns N' Roses lineup is edging closer to reforming, according to original drummer Steven Adler.
Adler is understood to have recently reconciled with singer Axl Rose, prompting suggestions that the band might get back together.



Could this mean the end of 'Izzy Stradlin and the Ju Ju Hounds'? How about 'Mad for the Racket' or 'The Racketeers'? And would this mean the end of 'Slash's Snakepit'? And would 'Road Crew' ever make 10's of people happy? And if the make another Hulk movie, who can do better then 'Velvet Underground'?

Guns N' Roses? No thank you. It just not worth it.

Correction in Feb. 23, 2007 Entertainment Weekly

In question 2 of EW's Pop culture Personality test, Patrick Warburton actually chose Cheech. In question 4, we meant Kate Jackson (Spotlight).

David Crosby ill, Crosby-Nash tour postponed

Fit as a fiddle! (David Crosby seen here with an Oak Ridge Boy) Feb 17, Reuters

David Crosby and Graham Nash, members of one of the top rock groups of the 1960s and 1970s, have postponed a U.S. tour due to Crosby's ill health, a representative said.
"The action was taken because of medical issues that have arisen for member David Crosby," the Web site http://crosbynash.com said in a posting on Friday which did not specify Crosby's illness.
So to the nobody that knew about this tour, the tickets will be refunded. Again, to everybody that didn't know about this tour which is everybody on the planet, tickets will be refunded, but to no one since nobody knew about the tour.

Clues

Peanut shells in my hairtip me off

that I’ve recently been on a bar floor.

The odor from my mustache clues me inthat there was vomiting in my recent past.

For the love of Pete, I hope it was mine.

The pain in my arm, ass, and side insinuates that I’ve been forcibly ejected from somewhere.

The gravel imbedded in my cheek might well mean that I’ve had better landings.

For f***’s sake, I hope I had fun.

Franken's first issue: universal health care

Look how serious I am!

Comedian-turned-politician Al Franken used his first campaign event today in Minneapolis to proclaim his support for universal health coverage.

"I don't think it will cost us any more. I think it will be cheaper," Franken said.

"I also, um, think that if criminals are off the street, there may be, I think, less crime. I think........"

Meanwhile Tom Davis has been murdered to keep his mouth shut.

Al Franken says he's running for U.S. Senate

A Big Fat Idiot. (Who also I think killed Phil Hartman.)

Pioneer Press 2/14/2007
Starting today, funny man (!?) Al Franken begins his bid to be taken seriously as a Democratic U.S. Senate candidate.
"I'm not a typical politician. I've spent my career as a comedian. Minnesotans have a right to be skeptical about whether I'm ready for this challenge," Franken said..
"I want you to know: Nothing means more to me than making government work better for the working families of the state, and over the next 20 months I look forward to proving to you that I take these issues seriously."

20 Months. And 167 days until I move from Minnesota. Thank you Al for giving me time. Oh by the way, nice Air America. That's going well.

John Amaechi, who played at Penn State and for five seasons in the NBA, will announce he is gay in an upcoming book.

Said wasn't such a good idea.
