The Fifth Annual Blogger Boobie-Thon will launch October first and is now accepting early photo submissions. This yearly event features bloggers showing their (covered and uncovered) breasts in order to raise money for charity during Breast Cancer Awareness Month. Only covered boobies (hands, props, food items, bras, etc.) will be placed on the main photos page. There will be a separate, passworded "pay-per-boobie" page for bare-breasted photos, which will be available to donors of $50.00 or more. The Boobie-Thon will run through October 7th.

During this season’s second episode of House, Dr. House bit the hand that furnishes his promotional consideration.

“Why don’t I have a high-def in my office? I’m a department head. Tissue characterization is impossible when the pixels are the size of Legos.”

As you can see in the picture above, the pixels he’s complaining about clearly belong to Dell, a company outed as a paid sponsor in the credits.

I spent countless hours on the phone with Dell tech support this summer. And a certified Dell technician spent about 9 hours in my kitchen, trying in vain to bring my under-warranty laptop back to life, twice returning with defective (or "the wrong") parts. I finally had to mail it to Texas.

Let this be a lesson to all the corporations out there. I don't forget.

Thanks to YouTube, David Bowie and Ricky Gervais for suddenly making my Monday morning a lot more chuckle-filled. Roll on season two.

Today on the veg...the man, the myth, the f'ing legend...Evel Knievel

For the guys...having trouble remembering those special dates? You know, anniversaries? birthdays? baby changing day? Don't let the Alzheimer's get you down, fellas. Now there's the remember ring. A handy little item that burns your ring finger on whatever day you set it for. (Please note, remember ring should be set for an hour when wearer is awake, as company takes no responsibility for burns, mutilations, or mattress fires that may occur as a result of product use)

And for the gals...this is the cone. I think you'll like the cone. It's in the conezone.

Send someone a “Nudger” to let them know how you feel about their lazines, bad habits, or just to give them a laugh. Here’s an example I threw together. With more internet goodness here. (via Ursi’s blog)

I think this one may be of interest to a few people here.

The Jewish Museum in Manhattan, and Newark Museum in Jersey, are putting on a two-part exhibition of 20th and 21st century comic book artists. I'm lost after Charles Schultz and R. Crumb, but I'll bet a couple writers here know every cartoonist listed. Could be worth a trip (or two).

- We kinda missed Rosh Hashana here at YesBut, so for all our Jewish brethren...a little Hebrew Crunk.
- Remember Lisa Sliwa? Guardian Angel, married to Curtis, Lisa? She's a reporter now, and this is funny.
- After Pete Rose's autographed apology on a bunch of baseballs, maybe a few other athletes will join in.
- If you've never seen a reporter get cuddly with a bunch of horny pandas, you may have to watch this.
- And when I saw the posters for Jackass 2, I thought...they're not really doing that rocket bit, are they?

"Pan's Labyrinth" ***1/2 (out of four): Beautiful but relentlessly grim fairytale about a young girl who finds refuge in a world of mythical creatures at the end of the Spanish Civil War.

As he proved in his wonderfully hypnotic ghost story, 2001’s “The Devil’s Backbone”, there are two topics that make Guillermo del Toro shine: the supernatural and the Spanish Civil War.
