Man, how the hell can someone have this much concentration when they are drinking?

...woke up one morning, got a shower from the Sultan's Elephant, and wandered off to play in the park.

I haven't had time to watch these yet, but via Tim Nudd at Adfreak comes two Microsoft training videos (for a whopping 37 minutes in total running time) in which Ricky Gervais reprises his David Brent character, alongside writing partner Stephen Merchant. It's like a whole new episode of The Office. Great find.

*Follow up 8/21/06: experts say "it's just a dog, maybe a chow mix" Bummer. But I hear that Chows can be really scary too.

An un-identifiable Dog/Rodent hybrid was struck by a car on Rt. 4 in Maine while chasing a cat. Local residents speculate that the creature maybe the mysterious predator that has been prowling the countryside, attacking dogs, frightening adults, and producing an "otherworldly howl". For other recent "hybrids in the news" follow the jump:

What would you think of a comforter on your bed with photographic images of beautiful women? Personally, I wouldn’t care to sleep with that, but you guys might enjoy Reality Bedding. The concept caused some consternation with the Useless Men, followed by existentialist philosophy. Go figure. I'm going to stick to my chenille peacock bedspread.

I found Curveball online the other day. Its premise is simple. Basically, it is a 3D pong game where top spin comes into play. I think this is a recreation of an old school arcade game. If you have a tablet I fear you may find this game addictive. I haven't tried it with a mouse, but it is probably really difficult.

Good Luck. I can't get passed level 8 yet, but I'm gonna keep trying.

Mel Gibson, you've just been arrested for drunk driving, accused Jews of starting all the wars in the world, and called a police officer sugar tits. What's are you doing next? I'm going to rehab!

So Mel likes his Dewars. So what's the big deal. I've had a few cocktails in my day. Actually, It's 7:00am now and I'm on my third shot. But that anti-semitic stuff...Max, that just doesn't play with the kids anymore. Hell, some people may even see this as an opportunity for ridicule, disparagement, insult, caricature, mockery, lampooning, parody, seventh inning rants or rap videos. And that movie you've got on deck...you know, the one filmed entirely in Mayan? Yeh, this could hurt the box office. You better lay low for a little while. Maybe come back strong with Lethal Weapon Twelve, or whatever number you're on. We'll call you when Ari calms down.

But Mel isn't the first celebrity to make a career threatening move. For every drunken rant in Hollywood, there have been ten other celebity misteps that don't involve a bartab. But they're just as painful...maybe more. So many in fact, that we couldn't keep it to ten this time. We've put together a list of twenty classic instances, where the star may have done things differently if given the chance. So take a look at twenty questionable career moves in entertainment history, because there's nothing more fun than a broke blogger making fun of millionaires for displaying poor judgement...Enjoy!

- Have you noticed? Reservoir Dogs doesn't have quite the same bite to it when it's an old lady and kids.
- I can't get enough of the kitty clips. Here's a cat that thinks its a spider, or maybe it's a furry spider.
- Did you ever see Bill Murray play Hunter S. Thompson. It's called Where the Buffalo Roam, and it's great.
- I like that new Coke commercial inspired by Grand Theft Auto. Even if you don't play, you still get it.
- And is it me, or is Samuel Jackson the coolest guy in Hollywood. I may even actually see the snake flick.
