So I was thinking about this at lunch the other day (because my brain is so big and I get bored easily).
Link Bruce Lee to Jack Nicholson using 6 or less movies.
Basically you start with Jack or Bruce and connect them with actors/actresses until you get a path. You do not have to use Kevin Bacon but you can if you need to.
And no cheating! Don't be going out to Google and shit trying to find it. Bruce will end you if you do!

This Weekend
Rode a crapload of miles this weekend. The best was the CSH ride. I made the mistake of trying to jump out and chase the lead group on Pea Ridge. That tore me up....and no one followed me! Bastards! (not really, everyone was really cool on the ride)
The ride down Lower Moncure was great. I'm going to have to remember that one. That is a great road; save some of the potholes. It had some really nice long rolling hills.
I was not counting on doing Hwy 42 the hard way and I mashed my gears way too hard for that. I ended up hanging with his guy who had the exact same bike as mine only it was a 60 and not a 50. That guy was huge. Nice to draft behind. :)
Some guy had shiny ass in the beginning of the ride. You could see his frickin crack smiling back at you. I was waiting for a brown turtle to poke it's head out. They need an ass check on those store rides. If you need new shorts then either you buy them before you ride or you ride in the back the whole time.
Avent Ferry was an absolute bitch. That was my breaking point thanks to not using my small gears on the hills. I could only watch everyone just run up those hills faster than me. Fatty jerks!
Oh yeah, the last 100 yards of Old Holly Springs Road is not paved anymore. It used to be 2 weeks ago. Whoever stole the pavement I would really appreciate you putting it back.
Triple Mountain this weekend. GO MEATBALLS!

Go Dookies!
One win away from being the National Champs in Lacrosse.
I will be very happy if this happens. Not only because I actually like Duke but because this will be a huge slap in the face to anyone who jump on the bandwagon of "guilty until proven innocent." Like those wonderful chaps over at the New Black Panther Party. What a fine group of upstanding citizens they are. (Michelle Malkin '08!!)
I think the NC Bar Association should make Nifong streak across the field at half time. If he does that then he can keep his law license. It think that level of humiliation is the only way he will fully understand the consequences of his actions or inaction--however you look at it.

The Greenhouse Myth
I have been doing some searching on the web about the greenhouse effect because I never understood how it worked. Something never quite sat right with all that stuff I had to sit through in school. It never made sense from a logical standpoint--ever.
The reason why I never fully got it is because of what is happening on the moon. It's hundreds of degrees warmer in the sun than it is in the shade on the moon and it has no atmosphere. It's got to be a part of the equation.
It turns out that my hunch was right.
The atmosphere acts kind of like a big giant pot of water. It enables convection. Unlike a greenhouse which is a barrier to convection. In short, the atmosphere allows for the transfer of heat over a wider area. That's why you don't burn up on a sunny day or freeze to death at night.

Biggest Box Office Flop
This is really funny....and sad...but more funny than sad.
"One of the most widely recognized aspects of Zyzzyx Road is its notably low box office draw. The film is the lowest grossing film of all time, earning just $30 at the box office from exactly six patrons. Unofficially, its opening weekend netted twenty dollars. The ten dollar difference is due to a personal refund by Grillo to makeup artist Sheila Moore, who had worked on the film, and her friend."
WikiPedia Link
I wonder...
What kind of crappy movies would you have to rent from NetFlix to end up with this one on your auto rental list?
My guesses would be:
Ishtar
The Spanish Prisoner
Pee-Wee Goes to the Movies - in 3D!
Muppets vs. Mothra
Mothra vs. Kahn
That teenie bop movie where the nerdy girl takes off her glasses and puts on a red dress and then she's totally the hottest and most popular girl ever. The frickin' movie could have been 5 minutes long and they could fill the rest of the screen time with toothpaste commericals and it would be a thousand times better! I mean, what a crock of holy shit!
Godfather Part III
(I own this movie, trust me, it totally sucks)
Godzilla vs. Kahn
(so I guess you know you wins Mothra vs. Kahn now - sorry to spoil that one for you)

Big Fat Commie Rat
Michael Moore goes to Cuba and now the US Government is after him.
I do not have a problem with the guy being a commie (save the fact and communism is the stupidest idea in world with the exception of solar powered flashlights) but he has to know the law that you cannot just get on a plane and goto Cooba.
But hey! He apparently likes to break Canadian gun laws for financial gain so you can't really put it past the guy.

Floyd
So there's all this crap going on again about Floyd Landis' blood sample again.
Google News Link
What I don't get about this whole thing is that this same nonsense has been said before. Pick up any publication about Landis in the last year and everytime the report will say that something illegal was found in is samples. But this was never the case. Now all of sudden another flood of articles comes out again saying the same thing.
You have to ask....how many times does it take for a lie to be printed before it becomes the truth?
Speaking of which....
Global Warming Swindle

Go Sabres!
I think I have to get cable now that the Sabres are in the conference finals. I wonder if I can just get them to hook it up for like 3 weeks then complain about the picture quality and get like 5 free months. Then again, maybe I shouldn't be posting this using my cable internet account either. :)
I like the old logo better...

Why I will never be President
So I was watching some reporter interview some guy running for President...
The reporter asks "What are you doing to stop the spread of AIDS?"
My reply would have been:
"Uh....not fool around with random people."
