During the NBA Draft last night, I was flipping around the dial when Stephen A. Smith was screaming his "analysis."

(Seriously, Stephen, why are you yelling at me? You know that thing clipped to your lapel is a microphone, right?)

I came across an ad for a product that I wasn't sure was real. Anti Monkey Butt Powder.

I put the words into Google to see if it was real. That was an odd combination of words to type. Sure enough, it's the real McCoy.

Anti Monkey Butt Powder is a talc that is specially formulated to absorb excess sweat and reduce frictional skin irritation.

From their website:

Ideal for butt busting activities such as truck driving, motorcycling, bicycling, horse back riding, and extreme sports. May also be applied inside footwear, under sports pads, and other areas prone to chafing. Indoors or outdoors, work or play, or on occasions when you sit on your butt all day, don't let your buns get red, use Anti Monkey Butt Powder instead!

Um, okay. This is the commercial I saw. You can understand my skepticism.

Have a good weekend. Don't get the Monkey Butt...

According to CNN, Hillary Clinton and Barack Obama are making nice at their first joint campaign stop in New Hampshire.

"We may have started on separate paths ... today our hearts are set on the same destination for America ... to elect Barack Obama as the next president of the United States," Clinton said.

"We are one party; we are one America," she added.

However this photo seems to show the opposite. The Clinton's really do play dirty.

But, as Bella Lugosi once said, when you can't beat them, bite them.

Steak, it's what's for dessert.

And breakfast.

And lunch.

And maybe a snack the next day.

"WALL-E" ***1/2 (out of four): "WALL-E" is truly a masterpiece of animation. If only live-action films were as thoughtfully and beautifully executed.

Pixar continues to define the gold standard of animated feature films with "WALL-E", the story of a little robot with a big heart. Surprisingly mature, thoughtful and subtle, "WALL-E" proves the mastery and bravery of Pixar's filmmakers as they push the envelope of animated storytelling.

Something needs to be done. This homeless problem is getting out of hand. No longer can I sit on the sidelines and watch as the laws of humanity are crumbled bit by bit into a heaping mass of selfishness and despair.

That's right, it's time to give homeless people some rules.

We're trying out a new plugin today - Seesmic Video Comments. I'll only add it to a few posts while we're beta testing it, but if you have a connected webcam, and feel like trying it out, you can now leave a video comment (maybe).

Feedback good or bad always appreciated.

Not what you might think. It's a kids juice drink available in Britain, apparently.

From regular commenter Bigus Dickus:

Saw this in Target last night while shopping with my wife. Figured since you guys are obsessed with bacon (and who isn't), you would find interest in this handbag. Enjoy!

Primitive man may not have had the same tools as modern man but that doesn't mean he wasn't inventive in his pursuit of getting his rocks off. Or so this animation attempts to show.

When fellow New Zealanders Flight of the Conchords penned their comically dystopian anthem The Humans Are Dead, could they actually have been predicting The Trons?

I hear it's mayhem backstage at one of their concerts, a dizzying circus of 011100110110010101111000 and 0111000001101100011101010110011101110011!

The NBA Draft continually provides us with drama and comedy. Usually a good time.

This year we had about five guys that were interesting - Derrick Rose, Michael Beasley, O.J. Mayo, Kevin Love and Eric Gordon - and the rest of the draft was 6-foot-10 stiffs, undersized guards and foreign born players that won't pan out. A shallow, chlorine-filled pool of talent in 2008.

Also this year was reason 7,313 that the DVR is the best invention since pasta. Stuart Scott was hosting. Stephen A. Smith was interviewing. Dick Vitale was analyzing/yelling/having a heart attack. And Doris Burke was droning. Thank you fast forward button.

Case in point; after Chicago selected Derrick Rose first, Stu said something to the effect of, "Derrick's nickname is Pooh. As in Pooh Bear. His grandmother gave him the nickname because he loves candy. Pooh Bear enjoys sweets like honey. But I don't think anything can get ... sweeter than this."

(Sigh...)
