Kuato Sings Chocolate Rain


You don’t want to hear this song again, and you don’t want to watch this video. There, you’ve been warned. Don’t blame me for any earworm or nightmares you may suffer because of it.

(Thanks, Jan!)

Things I Learned From The Iron Shiek's Wikipedia Entry

ironshiek.jpg

This winter, the Sheik was hospitalized after making several appearances in Toronto at a Wal-Mart, sports bar and independent wrestling show for his friend's sons. The Sheik claims he was to be paid $12,000 for the appearances but was only given $1,000. On his way to the airport, his driver stole his $1,000.
During an interview conducted in 2004 with Dan Mirade of the Boston, Massachusetts based Millennium Wrestling Federation, the Sheik was asked about his appearance at WrestleMania III, where he teamed with Nikolai Volkoff against the Killer Bees, Brian Blair and Jim Brunzell. When offering his recollections about the event, Iron Sheik expressed high praise for Brunzell owing to his athletic and high-jumping prowess, but displayed contempt for Blair, referring to him as a "lowlife" and a "punk". He gave no specific reason for his dislike of Blair, only remarking that he "didn't like his attitude". He would then express his desire to make Blair humble by suplexing him, putting him in his camel clutch submission, breaking his back, and "fuck[ing] his ass".

(See the classic YouTube clip after the jump, plus more Shiek.)

Natural "Bourne" Thriller

"The Bourne Ultimatum" *** (out of four): Paul Greengrass and Matt Damon team up again in this the third – and final? - installment of the reliably thrilling but increasingly repetitious "Bourne" series.

“The Bourne Ultimatum” – the third and potentially final installment of the series based on the Robert Ludlum Cold War spy novels - picks up scant seconds after 2004's “The Bourne Supremacy” left off, with amnesiac assassin Jason Bourne shot and on the run from the Moscow police. To make matters worse, he's still haunted by the memory of his dead lover Marie (Franka Potente, sorely missed) and plagued by those nasty flashbacks - this time featuring someone who bears a striking resemblance to Albert Finney. Could this vision hold the key to Bourne's identity (at least more so than 2002's “The Bourne Identity” did)? Let’s just say, if the filmmakers cast Albert Finney in the role, it’s probably pretty important.

Austen Powered

"Becoming Jane" *** (out of four): A charming period romance which casts Jane Austen as a budding young authoress stifled by the pride and prejudice of her time.

It takes a small stretch of the imagination to place Jane Austen in one of her own novels. This conceit is the raison d’etre behind “Becoming Jane”, a charming period romance which casts Ms. Austen as a budding young authoress stifled by the pride and prejudice of her time. With such rich source material and such an obvious premise, the wonder is that the film wasn’t made sooner. The miracle is that it turned out so well.

The Hazards of Live Reporting, chapter 832


Channel 4's Sue Turton was covering the British floods last week when Rufus Burdett decided to lift everyone’s spirits during the “dull and depressing situation". I love the way the Brits handled this. The police found him a week later and “cautioned” him. Can you imagine American cops going to the trouble to find a perpetrator to issue a warning? The Daily Mail went to his home, and on finding he wasn’t there, went to the local watering hole to interview his drinking buddies instead.

404 Error

Whoops! We're not sure if it was your fault or ours (probably yours, we're good that way) but you've encountered a FATAL ERROR!!! Or at least, a pretty grumpy one.

Specifically the Latvians who run our server are telling us in a weird accent "Smarty error: [in evaluated template line 5]: syntax error: unrecognized tag 'mtfeed' (Smarty_Compiler.class.php, line 580), Comrade!". Ain't life a bitch.

If you want to vent, email our slacker of a webmaster. Otherwise, we'd suggest going back, using search, or clicking around aimlessly on this page like a moron.

Have fun.
