I just heard mentioned that Billy Squier's video for 'Rock Me Tonite' is effectively what ended his career. And after watching it, um... yeah. I can see how that would happen.

It's Time to Drop the WWW.

Finally, a stupid little online movement that I can get behind. Nothing irks me more (in the internet world), than asking someone for a url and having them start by saying W..W..W. I even hear this crap in radio ads.

Scratch no more: Gene for itch sensation discovered.

Lets hope it works for stopping the itch of a mosquito bite.

Couple Locked Up Boy During Packers Game

The judge took the kid away from them - and rightfully so.

A bit of an update on where David Duval is, and when he might play again. I think the guy is just done. I'd like to see him come back and play at a really high level again, I just don't think its gonna happen.

This'll be good: Ping Pong coming to the Wii

I had no idea there was such a thing as an anti-snore t-shirt.

THE GODS HATE KANSAS by Joseph Millard

INVASION FROM THE STARS

It began with the landing of nine meteors in Kansas. Then, suddenly, it exploded into a massive catastrophe.

First, the meteorite investigating team were turned into automatons, ruled by an unknown, alien intelligence. They barricaded themselves from the world and began building a rocket project, aimed at traversing the stars.

Then the Crimson Plague struck, sweeping over Earth's population, destroying human capacities and defying scientific probing.

Only a few escaped the invasion from outer space, among them astrophysicist Curt Temple, whose girlfriend, Lee Mason, was enslaved, her personality changed.

Curt knew he had to pit his slim knowledge against the most perfect intelligence in the cosmos to save the world - and the woman he loved.

10 years in juvi detention and a permanent record as a sex offender - all for slapping a girls ass in school. Yep, that sounds reasonable

Golf Digest launched a website re-design today. Look better than previously, but its too white and wide-open looking for my tastes

Michelle Wie is in full melt-down mode after withdrawing from the Women's US Open, just a few weeks after a WD at the Ginn and a last place finish (35 behind the winner and 10 behind 2nd to last) last week.

She's either hurt and stupidly playing thru it, or she's just burned out on the game and may never recover. Its tough to tell since she did break her wrist over the winter. BUT, her poor play started back in July of 2006 - she hasn't broken par in a tournament in over 11 months now. And more recently, she hasn't even been close.

Bad year for weather in Kansas. Its been raining here pretty much for a couple of weeks and now Osawatomie had to be evacuated because the flood waters were so high.

Also, the pond that I go fishing at had 17 inches of rain over a 48 hour period this weekend. Its gonna be a while before its dry enough to head back over there.
