Shaq on tape dissing Kobe in an award winning freestyle
by: Sarah

Just kidding, his freestyle rapping sucks, but his diss to Kobe is pretty funny until he repeats “Kobe, tell me how my ass tastes” 5+ times in a row. This video is courtesy of TMZ’s paparazzi folk who happened to spot the big cactus on stage after taking the mic at a New York City club.

Funny tidbit from the TMZ post:

After spending several verses shredding Kobe apart for losing in the NBA playoffs, Shaq drops the line, “I’m a horse, Kobe ratted me out, that’s why I’m getting divorced.”

The line most likely references a comment Kobe made during his infamous 2003 rape case, when he told Colorado police that he “Should have done what Shaq does … Shaq would pay his women not to say anything.” The two became famously bitter rivals after the incident.

Search for Steve Fossett is back on
by: Sarah

Steve Fossett

Searchers are continuing the search for adventurer Steve Fossett. Fossett went missing in September of last year, searchers were called from every direction to find the missing adventurer. Last year’s search covered 20,000 square miles surrounding Barron Hilton’s Flying M Ranch, with searchers on foot, in the air and some using high tech equipment and satellites.

This time, two teams of volunteers will hike through a smaller area where the 63-year-old Fossett was last seen.

Previous searchers are providing maps and other detailed information on the harsh landscape the new teams plan to cover.

“The more people we have, the more eyes and boots on the ground we have, the better our chances are of locating Mr. Fossett,” said Gary Derks of the Nevada Department of Public Safety, who oversaw the 2007 hunt. “I wish them a lot of luck.”

Fossett was declared dead by an Illinois judge on February 15th, 2008. His widow isn’t helping with this search and does not plan to continue searching for him. That sounds a little weird to me, why doesn’t she want to find his body and carry out his death rights? I mean, they do find missing people, it just can take an extremely long time.

“Don’t give up hope. We waited 60 years or more,” said Jeanne Pyle, who in mid-May was finally able to bury her brother, Ernest Munn, a World War II airman whose trainer plane disappeared in 1942 in the high Sierra about 100 miles from Hilton’s ranch.

Backpackers told rangers last August they found an ice-entombed body on 13,710-foot Mount Mendel. In March, the Defense Department said forensic experts determined it was Munn, the long-missing brother of Pyle and her two sisters. He was the second of four airmen aboard the missing plane to be identified.

“We often wondered if they would ever find him,” said Pyle, 87. “Who would have ever thought about ice preserving him. It’s just been a miracle.”

Fair Game - Cindy Crawford at Her Worst
by: DS

I’m posting this because it was on the other night and I was shocked by how bad this movie is and this clip shows why. Fair Game, no not the Scientology term, was perhaps the worst move of 1995. Watch this monstrosity and try to tell me otherwise.

The computer nerd, the hot chick and every cliché in the book (at the time the movie was made) make me feel a little sick inside. This is one of the worst movies I have seen and I watch them all.

Cindy Crawford ends her acting career with this performance but you must love her URL www.cindy.com.

Sex and the City Movie
by: Sarah

Sex and the City: The Movie

Update:  I just bought the soundtrack and I LOVE it!!

I went to see Sex and the City on Friday night and I have to say that it was everything that I hoped it would be.   I was delighted to see the characters back together and in their normal glamourous style!  I won’t reveal any details on movie, but I will admit that I did cry, gasp, laugh.  Not everything was fun and games, just like in the series, the drama was large and I ended up mad at four characters at some point in the movie.

Go watch the movie, it is well worth the $10.00 fee!

December over on our sister site Razorfine did up a little review for the release, but I disagree with the rating personally, I’d give it at least a 4.5.  Plus, she goes off on the fact that her neighbors in the theater made her have a bad experience.

Sex and the City is growing nearer

French Skydiver lost his balloon
by: Sarah

Fournier\'s Helium-filled balloon escaping

I read this story a day or two ago about a French skydiver who planned to break four world records at once as he leapt from a balloon in the Earth’s stratosphere.

The former paratrooper had hoped to set new marks for the highest jump, fastest free fall, longest free fall and the highest altitude reached by a man in a balloon.

Michel Fournier, a 64 year old and current French record holder for highest parachute jump at 40,000 feet, was hoping to break the highest jump, fastest free fall, longest free fall and highest altitude reached by a man in a balloon records on Tuesday.

Still clad in his bright yellow pressure suit, the visibly frustrated Fournier waved away cameras after his ride slipped away shortly after 5 a.m. (7 a.m. ET). There was no immediate word on how the effort was botched, but his flight crew was attempting to recover the balloon, according to his official Web site

Apparently Fournier has spent the last twenty years and nearly $20 million on this adventure, how disappointing would that be to witness your extremely expensive stratospheric balloon float off into the skies without you?  What’s even more sad is that, according to his website, he has sold just about all of his possessions to finance the launch.

Google begins blurring out face on Street View
by: Sarah

Google Street View

So, what do you guys think about the Street View application that Google launched, pretty cool right? Well, how about if your face was on it? Would you care?

Personally I wouldn’t care if my face was on Street View, actually I think it would be pretty neat. I even asked my roommate and we came to the conclusion that the only people who are complaining are those who were caught cheating due to Google Street View. Maybe not, but imagine the scenario:

Girl: So, what were you doing last week?

Boy: Oh nothing, I was out with some buddies at the bar.

Girl: No you weren’t I saw you on Google Street View kissing some girl, IT’S OVER!

Boy: But that was 6 months ago…

Ty Colfax over at G4TV’s blog says, “Google has started blurring faces from its Street View feature, and let me tell you, it’s not a moment too soon.”

Hmm, do you guys care if your face is on Google Street View? If so, why is it on Facebook, MySpace, Flickr and Digg?

Oh boy, I just found this YTMND… Hilarious.

“Snake Man” slithers out of an Austrian prison cell
by: Sarah

Linz, Austria

How strange is this, a guy escaped from his jail cell in an Austrian prison, through the food hatch in the door.  The 19-year-old Kosovan man weighed less than 120 lbs when he escaped.  He was being held at the prison in Linz after entering the country illegally.  I wonder how the “Snake Man” got through two doors or over the prison wall, maybe slithered through the key holes?

19 year old mayor of Muskogee
by: Sarah

John Tyler Hammons, 19, New Mayor of Muskogee

With 70% of the vote John Tyler Hammons is the new mayor of Muskogee, Oklahoma as of Tuesday. The city of 38,000 people is in the northeastern part of the state. The catch is, Hammons is a 19-year-old college freshman at the University of Oklahoma.

“Being elected does not change my desire to continue my education,” he said. “We will schedule our time in an appropriate fashion so that I can be mayor and stay in school.”

Hammons replaces Wren Stratton, who decided not to seek re-election after one term.

There are quite a few other youngsters in the mayor position in the United States, check them out here.

News slip up
by: Sarah

This video is about two years old, but not a lot of people have seen it yet. This news anchor totally slips up when talking about a guy who climbed Mt. Everest. Instead of saying “he’s blind” she says “he’s gay,” I wonder if that slip up cost her her job.

Sorry about the video quality.

Last week the residents of Indiana were not as lucky as those in Flordia after a Dump truck driver unwittingly, uh, dumps load of waste on Indiana 55. Today a truck full of Jell-O Snack Packs got overturned spilling the contents all over I-95 causing a huge traffic jam.

The truck driver was trapped inside the truck but was quickly rescued. is being treated at a Saint Johns County hospital for non-life threatening injuries. Luckily no one was hurt, but the tasty treat was wasted, millions of children and Billy Madison just cried out for their missing Snack Packs.
