The Stark Knight

"Iron Man" *** (out of four): Saddled with a fairly typical superhero "origin story", director Jon Favreau compensates with some inspired choices: keeping the pace as fast as possible and casting Robert Downey Jr. as the man behind the mask.

This is the story of a billionaire playboy who, after a life-altering tragedy, constructs a superhero suit for use in an obsessive quest to fight for justice. No, this isn't another reworking of the "Batman" franchise (Christopher Nolan's 2005 version will do quite nicely, thank you). This is "Iron Man" - Marvel Comics' distant, more well-armed cousin. And aside from the above description, "Iron Man" couldn't be more different from the story of the legendary Caped Crusader.

Why choose? Because HUB, combining Hillary and Barack is a very bad idea.

Absinthe minded
Absinthe2.jpg

It's been blamed for causing madness, rumored for to induce hallucinations and been banned for containing toxic levels of thujone (found in wormwood), but a new study of very old absinthe bottles claims the reason for absinthe's wild effects are simply that it was loaded with alcohol. Nearly 70% (140 proof). Or enough to make you think you're wandering in the dessert talking to Jim Morrison and Barry Goldwater. Here's the skinny...

"An analysis of century-old bottles of absinthe - the kind once quaffed by the likes of van Gogh and Picasso to enhance their creativity - may end the controversy over what ingredient caused the green liqueur's supposed mind-altering effects .

The culprit seems plain and simple: The century-old absinthe contained about 70 percent alcohol, giving it a 140-proof kick. In comparison, most gins, vodkas and whiskeys are just 80- to 100-proof."

American Confusion

I'm surprised Haterade didn't mention last night's "WTF" moment on American Idol. The artists were scheduled to sing two songs each. But after only singing the first of his two songs, Jason Castro received a critique from Paula on BOTH his performances.

Paula's confused at the best of times, but to me, this just confirms what I've always suspected - Paula watches the rehearsals and plans her critique accordingly. All those "surprised reactions" are carefully stage managed.

I guess I shouldn't be surprised, but it just adds a little to the "it's all fixed" feeling I have in my gut about this show. Here's a prediction from YBNBY - within two seasons, a huge voterigging scandal is going to descend on the AI producers, and kill the franchise. There's too much money at stake, and the temptation to favor the "right" candidate too great.

Slow news day

I just scanned all my feeds and found not a single thing worth mentioning. Guess everyone's off playing GTA and trying to match the fictional NY to the real one.

Oh well - here's a cute puppy falling asleep.

Idol Anal-ysis - Round of 5 (4/29/08)

Make it 2 straight for Haterade, as he correctly predicted Carly Smithson's ouster. Let's see this week who won't be coming to the final four - unless they get a ticket to the theater.

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 6]: 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.
