Tuesday, November 15th, 2011Mark Howe is my favorite NHL defenseman of all time. Last night, he entered the Hall of Fame. The Hockey Hall of Fame is set to open its doors to the class of 2011 on Monday night. Here’s a capsule look at the careers of Ed Belfour, Doug Gilmour, Mark Howe and Joe Nieuwendyk. Mark [...]
Caption Contest Winners
Monday, November 14th, 2011The He Has Brass Ones Caption Contest is now over. Thankfully, you sick bastards (no offense) came through with some nice, high-quality captions this weekend. Let’s take a look (and possibly a tender feel) at how everyone fared. Top Five Entries: 5. Ol’ Joe chases some kids off his lawn. “That’s a crime, you whippersnappers!” [...]
This. Is. Smackdown!
Monday, November 14th, 2011Comic artist Frank Miller layeth the smacketh down on Occupy Wall Street this week. It’s a literary tour de force, in my opinion. Frank Miller, the legenday comic artist behind Sin City, 300, and The Dark Knight Returns unloaded on the Wall Street protesters in a recent blog post, and plenty of his fans are [...]
Thieves Target President’s Burial Site
Monday, November 14th, 2011Only the lowest of the low – subhumans – would steal something from a cemetery. Only sub-subhumans would steal something from the burial site of President Abraham Lincoln. Yet that’s exactly what happened there recently. Copper thieves have stolen a 3ft sword from Abraham Lincoln’s burial site in Springfield, Illinois. An employee recently noticed that [...]
Old Singers Never Die
Monday, November 14th, 2011They just whore away. Madonna is 53-years-old with – mostly – the body of a woman half her age. And the Material Girl showed that she still knows how to move it as she dropped some dance moves at an event in New York City last night. She also didn’t mind flaunting her toned legs [...]
Occupy Philly Ready For Prime Time
Sunday, November 13th, 2011So far, the Occupy Philly movement has been a joke. It’s sparsely attended and they get no press. In a city that takes a back seat to New York and D.C., Occupy Philly does the same to their neighboring toads. That all changed last night, and not for the better. Now Mayor Nutter has a [...]
Man! She Feels Like A Woman
Sunday, November 13th, 2011Why can’t people just shut up and act? Rosie Huntington-Whiteley managed to win the hearts of many, many men when she took the reins from Megan Fox to star in the latest “Transformers” installment, but she has one little secret that helps her put some extra sexiness in her step. Seven hundred dollar Christian Louboutin [...]
Happy Birthday, Mom!
Sunday, November 13th, 2011I wanted to take a moment to wish a happy birthday to my mom, who is, well, older than I am. Mama Earp was mostly a stay-at-home mom when I was growing up. She had odd jobs here and there to help pay the bills, but for the most part she sacrificed a career for [...]
Soccer It To Me
Saturday, November 12th, 2011Kyle (the goalie in yellow) has his next-to-last soccer game today, and like every other game this season, his team lost. It’s been a terrible year, one that has the players, coaches, and parents praying for a merciful end. The problem is that after doing so well in a preseason tournament, the kids were bumped [...]
Police Doing Lions’ Share Of Patrol
Saturday, November 12th, 2011By the time you read this, the Penn State/Nebraska game should already be in progress. It is my sincere hope that the students don’t act like animals, as some of them did on Thursday night. It is also my hope that there are not a lot of pro-Paterno signs in Beaver Stadium. It’s inappropriate, in [...]
