Armstrong on Mars?

The Congressional bonehead award goes to Rep. Sheila Jackson Lee (D-TX) who, on a visit to JPL, asked if Mars Pathfinder had taken an image of the flag planted there in 1969 by Neil Armstrong! Quipped Rep. Vernon Ehlers (R-MI) to the Washington Times: "We just don’t teach enough science." Worse, Jackson Lee, who represents Houston, is a member of… (more…)

The NCAA Basketball purge

Here is the headline that caught my eye today: Within days of their title win over Illinois, the Tar Heels had four players declare early for the NBA draft and lost their top seven scorers – a remarkable postseason purge that could test Williams like few seasons have before. Roy Williams is as good a coach as they come.  It… (more…)

E! Cancels Howard Stern

E! Entertainment Television said Wednesday it will stop airing new episodes of "The Howard Stern Show." The last episode will be seen July 8. The televised version of Stern’s radio show has been a staple on E! since 1994, shown weeknights at 11 p.m. and 11:30 p.m. and then again in the middle of the night. Stern won’t immediately disappear.… (more…)

Hannibal trampled daisies?

In 1960, Victor Mature starred in the movie Hannibal.  I’ve seen this.  Once, I think.  If it’s the one I’m thinking of, it features Hannibal mercilessly driving his soldiers through the glacier covered Alps.  Some of his soldiers, and even elephants, slip on the ice and plummet to their deaths thousands of feet below.  It’s a really bad movie about… (more…)

Tom Cruise, again

FOUR men were arrested after Hollywood star Tom Cruise was drenched with water at the London premiere of his new film, War of the Worlds. The four were working on a new Channel 4 comedy program and may now be charged with assaulting the A-list actor. He reacted angrily to the prank, repeatedly calling the man who soaked him a… (more…)

Ordering a non-printing printer

My big issue today was trying to get the printer people I lease our multi-function printers from to understand that the fact that their printer they just delivered will not print under any circumstances is giving me grief. Their excuse is that they didn’t get the initial impression that I even wanted the printer I ordered to actually print stuff.… (more…)

Britney Spears nude screensaver here!

As far as I know, this is about as nude a Britney as you’re going to find.  And from what I’ve heard, it will be for at least a year for sure.  Actually, this post is about something more important than seeing Britney’s boobs. According to a computer software maker, Spears tops the list of famous people whose names are… (more…)
