$500 Fine for Impeach Bush Sign
First it was a fine for advertising on public land, though there are tons of signs similar in his area, and now it is a fine for littering. I believe this is a bunch of horse shit and some Republican cop is getting off on his power.
“What police don’t have a right to do is selectively enforce the law. Military recruiters can place signs, garage sales, Realtors, but if someone doesn’t like the president, you arrest them and treat them like a criminal. That’s not what the United States is about,” said attorney Bob Fitrakis.

Why the Bourne Series is the Best American Film Trilogy Ever Made
Yes. Better than Star Wars. Better than The Godfather. But not because the individual films of the Bourne trilogy are better than the individual Star Wars or Godfather installments, because they aren’t - The Godfather or The Empire Strikes Back trumps any one of the three Bourne films, easily.
So just STFU Star Wars Fans! jk i love you

Can’t Wait for ‘Superbad’
I really can’t wait for the movie ‘Superbad’… it’s only 7 days away! In case you have lived under a rock for the past few months and don’t know what ‘Superbad’ is then you are in for quite a treat. Did you love the ‘40 Year Old Virgin’? How about ‘Knocked Up’? Well the creators of those masterpieces present to you ‘Superbad’.
Two high school seniors who are sort of in a hetero relationship which is presented jokingly throughout the movie face trouble as they are going to be separated at the end of high school, as each are going to separate colleges. The movie goes through several hilarious dilemma’s and awkward moments while the boys plan a huge party all in an attempt to get lucky.
If that doesn’t sound like enough reason to see the movie then maybe the face that is features actors such as Jonah Hill, Seth Rogen, and Bill Hader is. These actors alone have appeared in some of the most hilarious movies known to this centuries crowd such as ‘Knocked Up’, ‘The 40-Year Old Virgin’, and ‘Accepted’. If you still aren’t impressed then just watch these trailers and clips and let me know how you feel.
You can view the original trailer here.
Since When is Excersize and Spanking Abuse?
So this couple has been charged for abuse because they made their kids do 15 laps around the house every morning and if they didn’t they got a spanking? I’m not seeing a big deal here since they let the kids have water so what’s the problem?
Apparently one of the kids ran to the neighbors house one day and was complaining that they had to do laps. She didn’t do hers so she told the neighbors she was scared to go home because she might get spanked. The kid left before the neighbors could do anything and came back a few hours later dirty, sweating and hungry because she hid under their house for two hours.
Besides the fact that most kids should be put through this these days the couple even had a valid reason saying that the kids had anger problems and this was the best way to suppress those issues. In the end the parents were arrested for child abuse, the kids were taken into custody of child welfare, and the couple now has a court date. And people wonder why kids are such spoiled brats these days…
Bizarre: Drunk Man Mistaken for Dead
How would you feel if you were woken up from a drunken sleep? Even if you were sleeping near some train tracks and looked unmistakably dead. Well that’s exactly what happened to Dirus Gaines of Worcester, MA. After a fun night of downing some blackberry brandy Gaines stumbled to a local metro station and took a nice nap. But was later disturbed from this graceful slumber by bugger police who thought he had fallen off the steps and was killed.
Police went to the train station at 2:30 p.m. after a 911 call about a man on the ground near the tracks.
“The witness thought he (Gaines) was dead,” said police spokesman Lt. Paul Shastany. “He wasn’t moving and his eyes were rolled back into his head.”
Gaines looked as if he fell while trying to walk up some stairs leading to the platform and was half on the platform and half off, the lieutenant said.
The officer tried to wake up Gaines, whose eyes were still rolled up. He suddenly woke up and tried to stand. Shastany said the officer saw a bottle of blackberry brandy in Gaines’ pocket.
Gaines was disruptive and arrested for disturbing the peace.
Gaines was pleaded guilty and was fined $150 for disrupting the peace. Hell, I’d be pretty damn pissed off too if I was drunk and someone was waking me up and trying to put handcuffs on me.

New Tallest Man in the World
This Ukrainian man puts that Chinese guy to shame. Absolutely dominating him at over 8 inches taller I don’t understand why this guy didn’t come out sooner!
KIEV, Ukraine — A Ukrainian man is the tallest person in the world at 8 feet 5 inches tall, overshadowing a Chinese man who previously held the title, Guinness World Records said on Wednesday.
Leonid Stadnik, a 37-year-old former veterinarian, is 8 inches taller than the former titleholder, China’s Bao Xishun, who measured 7 feet 9 inches tall, Guinness spokeswoman Amarilis Espinoza said in London.
Stadnik’s growth spurt started at age 14 after a brain operation apparently stimulated his pituitary gland, which produces the human growth hormone.
He lives with his mother, Halyna, in northwestern Ukraine, taking care of the family’s house and garden.
Carson Daly Get’s 2 More Years
NBC’s Carson Daly has signed a contract for 2 more years of his late night talk show ‘Last Call’. This is great news because when ever I’m done watching Chris Furgeson I usually turn the channel to ‘Last Call’ for my final minutes of conscientiousness before I drift off into the wondrous land I call my dream world. So, from those 10-15 minutes I see of his show most night it’s really great.
What’s even better is he is being open with his desire to move up to an early time slot at 12:30 which means I would actually have a chance to watch him. “The late-night host is psyched about NBC granting another two years on ”Last Call,” but makes no secret of his desire to take over the Peacock’s 12:30 a.m. time slot when O’Brien moves to ”The Tonight Show” in 2009″
During an interview with Entertainment Weekly he proved how happy he was with the extension adding in “In television, shows are hard to get and they’re even harder to hold on to. I am ecstatic that I have my show at NBC. I mean, I’m just thrilled.” You can check out the whole Carson Daly Interview on the EW website.
