Late Lunchtime Look-a-Like

I'm not exactly sure how this one popped into my head, maybe it is because Jaromir Jagr has been in sports news a bit because he is coming back to the NHL and has talked a little trash to his old fan base in Pittsburgh.  It certainly isn't for John Stamos aka Uncle Jesse, because he ain't doing sh!t.

Jaromir Jagr:



Uncle Jesse:



Now, sans mullets:



Welp, that should do it for me, everybody.  It's about time I head out on that dusty trail and beat the Cap traffic.  Vaya con Dios, bitches!

PS:  Can you tell I totally mailed this one in?  This is really a hair style look-a-like.  You got my C+ game today.  I don't want to make any big promises, but KC Jones could have some stuff in the pipeline this weekend.

The Thrill of Victory and the Agony of Defeat



AUBURN, AL (WTVM) - The Lee County Sheriff's Department came up with a creative way to arrest parents who have failed to pay child support.


Authorities set up a phony fan organization, which sent out letters to various residents in the county who are not paying child support.


The letters told them they had won tickets to this year's Iron Bowl contest between Auburn and Alabama at Jordan-Hare Stadium. They were invited to a huge tailgate party Friday where they could pick up their tickets. Investigators called their sting: Operation Iron Snare.


The officers, clad in Auburn and Alabama gear, were waiting at this ‘tailgate party,' even applauding the so-called winners when they entered the building.


When the deadbeat parents arrived, they had to show a driver's license to win their ticket, but then the tables turned. They were cuffed.


After their arrests, the parents were taken by bus to the Lee County Sheriff's office to meet with a court administrator.


They had a choice to pay either a percentage of what they owe to their children or stay in jail until they saw a judge.


"We have totaled it up and so far, the arrests equaled to about $250,000 in child support. We want to send a message: ‘If you don't pay child support we are going to get you one way or another,'" said Major Tommy Carter, Lee County Sheriff's Office.


The Lee County Sheriff's office says Operation Iron Snare was such a success that they are planning on doing it again, but this time they will have to come up with something even more creative than tickets to the Iron Bowl.


The first guy getting pinched in this video made me feel really bad for a second, then I remembered he was totally screwing over his kids.  However, my obvious favorite was the last guy who asked if he still got the tickets.  A close second goes to the fact they are playing The Black Eyed Peas when that lady got busted.  Hey, you gotta set the right mood for a sting operation.

How Does this Happen?


That's Pee Wee Herman with Tony Romo at the Cowboys training camp.  How does this happen?  Can you imagine something like this at the Patriots camp?  I am going to go out on a limb and say this:  The Cowboys are going to suck.  If they had Pee Wee in his hay day, you know, Big Adventure Pee Wee, they might be on to something.  However, this is old, sad, washed up Pee Wee.  Get your sh!t together, Dallas.

PS:  You might want to keep the Cowboys cheerleaders of site while Pee Wee is around.

Wikipedia - In July 1991, while visiting relatives, Reubens was arrested in Sarasota, Florida for masturbating while secluded in a darkened adult theater. Detectives would periodically visit pornographic theatres and observe the audience, arresting those engaged in indecent exposure. After arresting a number of other men, a detective who had been observing Reubens stopped him on his way out. While detectives examined his driver's license, Reubens told them, "I'm Pee-wee Herman", and offered to do a children's benefit for the sheriff's office, "to take care of this". The next day, after a local reporter recognized Reubens's name, Reubens's attorney made the same offer to the Sarasota Herald-Tribune in exchange for withholding the story. This was not Reubens's first arrest in the county; in 1971 he was arrested for loitering and prowling near an adult theater, though charges were later dropped. His second arrest was in 1983 when Reubens was placed on two years' probation for possession of marijuana, although adjudication was withheld. The night of the arrest Reubens fled to Nashville, where his sister and lawyer lived, and then to New Jersey, where he would stay for the following months at his friend Doris Duke's estate.

Stuck in My Head



Why?  How?  No idea, but I was singing this in my head as soon as I woke up to one of my dogs wanting to go outside.

This is the first time I've ever seen this video and I have no idea what's going on.  I think if you did LSD or shrooms, this video would totally freak you out.

Thankfully we have YouTube commenters to clear things up for us...


  • "..because the flesh will get weak, and the ashes will scatter..." Such a moving lyric. Henley is a poet.
  • things hurt people close to us..mostly unintentional. Family can be slow to forgive, but Ive always felt family should be first to do so. My heart is open, and I forgive all. And hope they forgive me. Life sometimes takes strange twists.
That sh!t is deep.
