Manny "PacMan" Pacquiao hit Ricky "Hitman" Hatton with a left hook and took him out in the second round. Watch it while you can 🙂 UPDATE: And, as expected, the video has been removed.

Friday funny
I received this thru email and thought I'd share 😉 An old country preacher had a teenage son, and it was getting time the boy should give some thought to choosing a profession. Like many young men his age, the boy didn't really know what he wanted to do, and he didn't seem too concerned … Continue reading Friday funny
American Idol Results 04/29/09: elimination
I was a bit busy watching the debate so I missed the airing of AI. Of course, I have TiVO so all's good 😉 Besides, I got to fast-forward thru the commercials and any dumb parts of the show (like the food fight). Like last season, the remaining five were split into two groups with … Continue reading American Idol Results 04/29/09: elimination
American Idol 04/28/09: standards
The Fab Five of American Idol took on the music of standards from the Rat Pack era. As expected, the guys all showed up in skinny ties 🙂 I find the genre a strange choice for a pop star program; while I love this music, I can't imagine there are many who watch this show … Continue reading American Idol 04/28/09: standards

American Idol results 04/22/09: two go home
Disco week, thankfully, came to an end Wednesday night with two people being voted off American Idol. The show opened with a dance number, choreographed by judge Paula Abdul, featuring the seven remaining contestants. The dancing was OK, the lip synching less so. I would have preferred a real singing number over the dancing - … Continue reading American Idol results 04/22/09: two go home
American Idol 04/21/09: Disco
The theme of Tuesday night's show was disco, although little real disco was on display. In fact, I suspect the two people whose performances were closest to disco - Lil and Matt - are going home Wednesday. Despite her having lost her voice, I dont think that was Lil's problem last night. I think her … Continue reading American Idol 04/21/09: Disco
Susan Boyle’s got talent
By now, you have probably heard about Susan Boyle, whose performance on Britain's Got Talent has everyone talking. In case you haven't seen it, head over to YouTube and check it out. Take that, Simon 😉
Shad Planking roundup
The rain managed to hold off for most of the time at the 2009 Shad Planking. It was pretty nippy out there, though, and I'm glad I took an overcoat. Others have written about the events and I've posted the three videos of the speeches given by the gubernatorial candidates. Let me share a couple … Continue reading Shad Planking roundup
American Idol Results 04/15/09
Tuesday's show was strange for me. Most of the performances, I thought, were subpar. Heading into the results show, I figured just about anyone (except Allison) could end up in the bottom three. The first contestant in the bottom three was -- once again -- Anoop. I think this kid has an awesome voice but … Continue reading American Idol Results 04/15/09
