Lightning Round

There are many things in this world that are just plain wrong. Here's a few of them:

  • People offering to sell kittens. Driving in their car. In the parking lot of Wal-Mart. After 9 at night.

  • Wal-Mart selling women's night shirts that say "America's Next Top Model" on the front. Really, Tyra, have you no shame?

  • Amish romance novels. And before you think I'm lying, go watch this story from Nightline.

  • The show "Deadliest Warrior" exploring terrorist groups (the IRA vs. the Taliban) in this Sunday's "season finale." The show does a pretty good job at looking at the weapons of historic warriors, but terrorist groups? What's warrior-like about that?

  • The Orlando Magic being up 3-1 on the Cleveland Cavaliers. Actually, that's pretty funny because you know ABC and the NBA are dying a little bit inside each day they creep closer to a possible Denver-Orlando final.

  • This clip from Sesame Street, featuring Jessica Alba teaching the children a new word. And making the father's of most of the children nodding their head furiously in agreement.

  • Pat Quinn still getting head coaching jobs in the NHL. Seriously. I suppose it's easier to go with a known quantity that's been out of the game for a while, but c'mon.

  • Peter Zezel, a hard-nosed center for 15 years in the NHL, dying at the age of 44.

  • Mike Tyson losing his 4-year-old. Hasn't that man suffered and dealt with enough in his life?

  • Adam Carrola hosting a party/fundraiser featuring super comics (including Bob Saget) and running out of beer less than an hour in, as was recounted on the KROQ's Kevin and Bean Cinco de la Tarde show.

  • A "Buffy, the Vampire Slayer" property in development in Hollywood, without Joss Whedon's input. Ten, 15 years from now, maybe. But now? That's beyond wrong.

  • The commercial for McDonald's I just saw while writing this. Hand puppets should not be food.

    On that note, I think it's time to wrap up. Look for a original from my MySpace blog tomorrow, and a new Food Friday to finish the week. Have a good week.
