Stewie Has Been Served


If you have ever watched The Family Guy, then you know that it is one parody bit after another. No part of pop culture is left untouched.

So the show incorporates a few seconds of Carol Burnett's cleaning lady character (people actually remember that?) so she decides to sue. Sue? Did that darn Patriot Act repeal the First Amendment, too?

Not only does Ms. Burnett not have a sense of humor, her lawyer's don't understand copyright law.

Edit: Didn't she do a parody of Gone With The Wind?

Edit: The clip and the lawsuit can be seen here on The Smoking Gun.

Maybe hockey isn't so bad.

Shocking . . . It Won't Last . . . But Shocking


And that's Texas A&M at Corpus Christi.

You can find out what happened here.

That's One Strict Public University


There has to be more to it than firing off a curse word, but the story doesn't indicate it.

Ms. New Sore Booty



These two girls (Carmen Electra and some chick from Days of Our Lives) pose after just getting through busting their booties last night on some fashion show runway. The video footage was even on Channel 5 tonight. Carmen went down first and then the Days' lady comes running in to help her and just goes flying.

No Way


I was thumbing through the Fort Worth Weekly and saw an ad for Nokia Theater in Grand Praire. I've always wanted to go there so I glanced at the upcoming acts to see if anything interested me. (R.E.M. was there a couple of years ago.)

So what do I see? Ed McMahon. You can pay money - real money - to hear Ed McMahon talk about the dead Johnny Carson.

Tell me that's a very short line at the ticket office for that one.

AfricCam

Stolen from another blog: A [reader] sends this link to a live video feed from Nkorho pan (water hole) in Sabi Sands Private Game Reserve in South Africa. Warning: it is addicting. Right now you can hear turtle doves and monkeys getting ready to settle in for the night. Awe. Some. Oh, a cape buffalo just stopped in for a drink! It is dark there now but you can still see pretty well. I saw an elephant walk up. But the most amazing thing may be the sound. It's like you're in the jungle (although I really don't know what that sounds like.)

Get Your Guns Uuuuu........Oh, No

Cat Scratch Fever

There's a weird (and inconsequential) slice in the middle of the clip, but it's certainly real. And you have love the, "this little guy's having fun here." And here is a follow-up where they try to explain the cat is really adoption-worthy (riiiiiiiiight) and the news gal claims she wasn't crying (riiiiiiiiight.)

"One Time, At Band Camp"


Yep, same girl. And this is posted solely in celebration of March Madness which officially begins at 11:20 a.m. (Tech plays 5 minutes after that and the Aggies play at 2:00 p.m.) Baylor, uh, not so much.

Happy St. Paddy's Day Eve Eve

You Can Now Easily Change Directions


Even thought the Update mentioned it first, I saw this morning that the turn lanes at 730 and 287 are now open after months of government ineptness. No more barricades. Freedom is ours!

So everyone go do a U-Turn in celebration of a project that took nine months instead of nine weeks to complete.

This Guy . . .


. . . is all over the news this morning after alleging confessing to plotting 9/11 during a hearing in Guantanamo Bay (how many people are down there again?)

Anyway, the only thing I can think of when I see his picture is the late John Belushi. And that's the largest neck of any t-shirt I've ever seen.

Shocking Southpark Episode Everyone Is Talking About



Edit: Incredible. It has, in fact, been taken down since last night.

But the clip had a Southpark resident being on the Wheel of Fortune grand finale. The clue was "People that annoy you" with the exposed letters of "N_GGERS". An explanation in text doesn't do justice to what happened next.
