- Meat the cast of The Real World Philly. Here's my forecast for the upcoming season: Willie (the gay Puerto Rican) dominates most of the storylines, I bet Shavonda accuses MJ of being a racist at some point, Melanie won't shave her bush the entire time, and Sarah will be the next Mrs. Thigh Master cause she is most attracted to bad boys who are witty, independent, athletic and a challenge. Does masturbating count as athletic? I hear it's going to be an eggzibition game at the next Olympics...
- Did a Transformers comic predict the terrible events of 9/11? [via MuseZam of Hoaxes]
- This is the most amazing dog you'll ever see.
- John Lennon said 'give peace a chance', but I don't think he'd ever say give Converse's peace shoes a chance.
- Lohan, stop trying to make me jealous.
- This blog celebrates the last-place finishes at the 2004 Olympic Games in Athens. Because they're there, and you're not. At least someone is enjoying these games. Wake me up for the first luge event in Torino.
- John Kerry to appear on The Daily Show tonight. Somewhere Ted Koppel is throwing darts at a picture of Jon Stewart.
- Graham Norton is having such a gay olde thyme in NYC, that he's in no hurry to return to Britain. Can you blame him? The pizza over there blows more than Linda Lovelace.
- ESPN is slowly turning into MTV. The latest piece of crap their peddling is a drama series about Vega$ called Tilt. It's being written and directed by the team behind Rounders. Why don't they take that money and re-hire Craig Kiljoy.
-Buy this UTZ Zippo lighter for me and I'll be yer best friend.
- The Beastie Boys are playing MSG on October 9th. Tickets go on sale this Friday, but there'll be a pre-sale tomorrow AM @ 10 AM. The password is 'trouble'.
- The first night's line-up of the first annual New York Jewish Music & Heritage Festival sounds quite interesting: Neil Sedaka performs Irving Berlin & Sedaka, Lisa Loeb & Jill Sobule perform Simon & Garfunkel, David Broza performs Carole King, and Philip Glass performs... Philip Glass.
- Sahara Hotnights are on the road again. They take a Brooklyn pitstop on September 13th at the fab venue Southpaw. Also, Sondre Lerche drops by on October 19th.
- The New York Dolls are going to release a new album. No word on a "Hot, Hot, Hot" remix...
- You didn't demand it, but here are some more pimp costumes.
- Double boo-urns: Wayans Bros to make a Munster movie (can't they think of an idea of their own?) and Ellen DeFishTaco is going to star as Gawd in a remake of Oh, God!. I should just do everyone a favor and add these two to the Slit Yer Eyes Out list now.
- And when I think of a county fair, smelly animals, obscenely large watermelons, and rigidity rides come to mind. But apparently Pemberville, Ohio's fair is like none other. They have a gross-out contest where people stick their heads into a toilet bowl full of chicken gizzards, chicken necks, water, Worcestershire sauce and corn and whoever pulls out the most meat, wins.
Pee es - The long list of albums eligible for this year's Shortlist Music Prize has been announced. In me opinion, they should just narrow down the field to The FF Archdukes, The Streets, Air, Travis, and Neil Young.
