Veteran Police Officer Faces Charges For Hitting Himself With Congresswoman McKinney's Hand

I did not make this up. It is not from a spoof site. This is for real. German researchers say that people who smile a lot and say "have a nice day" are headed to an early grave while the grumpy stay fit.

If only the headline DID say it all...but it gets a whole lot worse. This story is Jerry Springer's wet dream: Three Arrested at Baby Shower Brawl

  • Here's a tip for you youngsters. A 7-iron is fine for bobcats, but use the driver if attacked by a mountain lion. If a camel escapes from the zoo - go with the sand wedge

Textbook Says Donkeys Are Better Than Housewives

  • "A donkey is like a housewife. It has to toil all day and, like her, may even have to give up food and water. In fact, the donkey is a shade better, for while the housewife may sometimes complain and walk off to her parents' home, you'll never catch the donkey being disloyal to his master."

This week's movies (1100 screens): Phat Girlz - no reviews available

  • Mo'Nique and Eric Roberts - together at last!

This week's movies (one trillion screens, or at least 3100): The Benchwarmers - see below

  • This is the baseball film with David Spade and Rob Schneider, so don't expect lots of positive reviews, because they are not exactly the darlings of the arthouse set ... or, for that matter, any other set I can think of.
  • One RT commenter wrote: "In my medium-sized American city, all critics screenings for 'Benchwarmers' were cancelled at the last minute so there won't be any opening-day reviews."
  • One site wrote: "Jon Heder has joined the axis of evil."

This week's movies (1700 screens): Lucky Number Slevin - 69% positive reviews

  • The previews look terrific. It seems to be a Guy Ritchie crime movie with American accents.
  • Hollywood Reporter said, "No matter how badly the movie cons you, you must admit that the film is stylish as hell with sharp dialogue, a tongue-in-cheek plot and visual and editing razzle-dazzle."

This week's movies (2800 screens): Take the Lead - 73% positive reviews.

  • Critics have been impressed by the Banderas dance movie, and by the perfect casting of Banderas himself, although they have acknowledged it to be a formulaic and schmaltzy genre flick. Rolling Stone summed it up, "The movie shucks its corn straight from the cob. But it's no less engaging for that, thanks to the enthusiasm of the young cast and the fusion of classic dance with hip-hop moves."

The Weekend Warrior makes his predictions for the upcoming weekend.

  • There are four more new releases this week.
  • Warrior feels that Take the Lead (Banderas) and The Benchwarmers (Spade-Schneider-Heder) will open in the fifteen million range, with the other two new releases falling by the wayside.

Art Buchwald is living death to the fullest.

More universities are going SAT-optional, including 24 of the top 100 liberal arts colleges.

  • It appears that the SAT company's managers made a poor financial decision when they added the essay.
  • "What this represents is a dissatisfaction or worse with the changes in the SAT," says Robert Schaeffer, spokesman for FairTest, a non-profit organization that says tests are overused.

More baseball salaries: Phil Nevin makes ten million per year. He is 35. In the past four years, he has averaged 16 HR, 65 RBI.

  • Nevin has managed to stay in the line-up during only one of the past four years, but if he finds his stroke and stays healthy, he's going to love playing in Texas. In 2001, he had an OPS of nearly 1000 playing in a pitchers' park, and knocked in 126 while hitting in a mediocre line-up in that tough park. If he returns to that form in Arlington, in the current Rangers' line-up, he could knock in 160 ... which is of course why the Rangers are willing to gamble on him.

The 2006 salaries for the 409 Major League Baseball players earning $1 Million or more.

  • The Yankees pay $100 million just to their top five guys, and another sixty million to the next five!
  • Magglio Ordonez makes $16 million per year, and over the last two years he has averaged nine homers and 42 ribbies. (Of course, he averaged about 120 RBI for the previous five years.)

To improve Sunday nights, NFL keeps schedule flexible. Dallas to play in Philadelphia on Christmas Day

  • Will T.O. receive the spirit of goodwill toward men? Not in Philly. The legend is that the Philly crowds boo the losing kids in Easter Egg Rolls.
  • Note this interview with my dad, Danny "Suits" Sparrow, who claimed to be the world's greatest baseball player. "Scoop: So dad, if you were so good, how come you never hit more than 47 homers in a season?" "Danny: Hell, you gotta remember that I only had 48 at-bats that year playing for the Philadelphia Cheesesteaks. In my other trips to the plate, I had 665 intentional walks and a ground-rule double. And the home fans in Philly booed me for ten minutes when I hit the double."

ASU cheerleader does porn, in uniform.

  • "Courtney Simpson, playing a pantiless cheerleader in the same outfit she wore on the front DVD cover (Arizona State University I believe: yellow, middle right hand side), showed she still had all her cheerleader moves with the split on the floor before taking on Barry Scott and Travis Knight in the living room."
  • She must be the first porn star to change her real name to a LESS sexual one. Sources report that her real name is Courtney Cox.
  • Here is a site with lots of pics of her as a cheerleader and .. um ... elsewhere. The threads also include posts by ol' Courtney herself.

L'Insegnante va in collegio( 1978)

L'Insegnante va in collegio (1978) or the School Teacher in College is not a sequel to The School Teacher, nor does it take place in a college. Again, Edwige Fenech is the title character. This time she has joined the faculty of a Catholic boys high school and become the object of lust of the gym teacher, a student (Renzo Montagnani), and the student's rich industrialist father Leo Colonna, who is masquerading as a pauper to avoid kidnapping. The priest who runs the school is Fenech's uncle, and feels protective, but she can more than take care of herself.

Running gags include a trick played by the staff of the hotel where Fenech is staying. Whenever a woman checks in and asks for a room with a bath, the staff, which includes a student from the school, waits until she is good and soapy, then shuts off the water to the room. When the woman calls to complain, they rush to the rescue, hoping to find a naked wet woman.

As this comedy is worth the time, I will save some surprises for you to discover.

IMDb readers rate it a meager 3.8. I agree that the story is not as fun as L'Insegnante, but Fenech looked wonderful, and had much more screen time in this one. Fans of Fenech and lovers of Italian sex comedy will want to see this one. C-

 

Edwige Fenech shows breasts in a fantasy scene, and again in a shower scene.
Nikki Gentile, as the rich father's secretary, shows breasts and buns in a sex scene and a shower scene.
 

 

 

 

 

 

Well we are still stuck here in 1968 so we might as well cover the third movie in the "Flesh" Trilogy,  The Kiss of Her Flesh. This one gets even more violent and raunchy than the previous two as our madman keeps killing off more women whom he considers evil, all to avenge his wife's infidelity. Of course he bumped the wife off in the first flick.

Donna Stone is first kidnapped and has her tits fondled by our crazed villain.

Then she becomes a "Babe in Bondage"

 Then he tortures her boobie with a lobster claw (you read that right )

Then he electrocutes her with wires attached to her earrings.

Wash that one down with Uta Erickson, who was the victim in the second  film's whipping scene.

Tomorrow Uta returns to reveal all.

Pat's comments in yellow...

The Times of India reports that a textbook used to teach the Hindi language to 14-year-olds is under fire for a reading passage that says, "A donkey is like a housewife... In fact, the donkey is a shade better, for while the housewife may sometimes complain and walk off to her parents' home, you'll never catch the donkey being disloyal to his master."  It was approved by the Hindu nationalist party government, who said it was meant in "good humor;" but it's being removed after the women's branch of the party complained.

*  A donkey wouldn't have complained. 


Doctors at London University are studying a man who reportedly took 40,000 Ecstasy pills from age 21 to 30.  The previous known lifetime record was 2,000 pills.  He came to doctors because, even years after stopping, he's still having trouble functioning. He has painful physical problems, such as rigidity around the face that makes it hard to open his mouth and talk, and mental problems, including paranoia, hallucinations and memory loss.
