Identification

I recently put up a new header. Can you identify each celebrity I put on the Red Carpet? By the way, Zooey Duschanel, John Anderson, Ballsy, and Katy Perry got cut off.

Least Favorite Sesame Street Muppet: Day 31

I mean who likes Abby? Still counting? Oh, that's fine but how many do you have so far? None? Shocking.

Good Muppet challenge but an odd way to end it.

If This Isn't Awesome Than I Don't Know What Is And I've Been Lying To Myself Forever Then.


Don't you just love Pixar montages?

A Time A Muppet Inspired You: Day 27

It wasn't really a Muppet and it's very short. It's a Jim Henson quote that says "My project was to use laughter to help people learn." A good commercial also.

I've Been Taking A Good Look At Directors Lately

And I must say that Steven Spielberg is the best one! He directed:

  • Schindler's List
  • Saving Private Ryan
  • Jaws
  • E.T. The Extra Terrestrial
  • Jurassic Park
  • Raiders of the Lost Ark
I know it's random but I felt like telling you my views. If Jon Favreau does well enough with 'The Magic Kingdom' movie then he will obviously move up to number one. Here are my top five:

  1. Spielberg
  2. Unkrich
  3. Favreau
  4. Hitchcock
  5. Lucas

Most Underrated Muppet: Day 21

Upon entering the theater, please move as far to the end of the row as possible. Stopping in the middle is distinctly unpatriotic. Sam the Eagle is legendary.

Oh My God I Just Love Pixar


“But there are times where a critic truly risks something, and that is in the discovery and defense of the new. Word is often unkind to new talent, new creations - the new needs friends. Last night, I experienced something new, an extraordinary meal from a singularly unexpected source. To say that both the meal and its maker challenge my preconceptions about fine cooking is a gross understatement. They have rocked me to my core. In the past, I have made no secret of my distain for Chef Gusteau’s famous motto - “Anyone can cook”. But I realize now do I truly understand what he meant: Not everyone can become a great artist, but a great artist can come from anywhere”

- Anton Ego, Ratatouille

Favorite Henson Creature from a Non-Muppet Production: Day 20

The DFTBA Tournament Is Underway

Last year Blackstone Valley won it all. Now the '11 tourney is underway and you can see the first two winners from when I've played already. There is a rule change that the bracket has gone from 32 teams with 15 automatic bids with 17 at-large bids to 64 teams with 15 automatic bids and 49 at-large bids. Last year in a tiebreaker game Universal Orlando topped Thanksgiving to clinch a #1 seed for '11. The other number one seeds are Friends, Family, and Blackstone Valley. Make your predictions and fill out your bracket today!

Favorite Muppet Quote: Day 15

Hard to decide so here is a bunch of Statler and Waldorf quotes:

Waldorf: Tell me, Statler. Do you have any naval experience?
Statler: Well, I once saved a rat from drowning.
Waldorf: Really, how?
Statler: I gave him mouth to mouse resuscitation!


Waldorf: Just when you think this show is terrible something wonderful happens.
Statler: What?
Waldorf: It ends.


Waldorf: These seats are awful.
Statler: Why? Can't you see anything?
Waldorf: That's the problem. I can see everything.


Pretty good, eh?


Then there's this one:

Robot Kermit: Yeah. Look, let me take you away from all this. Aaah, a marriage made in heaven. A frog and a pig. We can have bouncing baby figs.

March Madness!

[Click to enlarge]

Alright let's break it down.

The East bracket. You see Ohio State, Kentucky, Syracuse, North Carolina, and West Virginia. Those are some big names in just one corner. All four make it hard for Ohio State to advance. What else makes it hard for the Buckeyes to move on? Those pests. You know the pests I'm talking about. The bracket busters that just won't go away? Davidson of '08. Butler of '10. George Mason of '06. Heck, even Kansas of '08. This corner is full of 'em. George Mason, Villanova, Clemson, Princeton, Xavier, Marquette, and Washington. It'll be tough, but I see Ohio State advancing to the Final Four because Sullinger will be to much for Fab Melo to take on in the long run. Their speed will outlast the other teams' heights.

The West bracket. Almost all of the teams in this corner are capable of long runs. UConn for sure. They just won five games in five days, and they have not lost one game this season in tournament play. Duke's there, they won last year. Also San Diego State who prevailed against BYU when it mattered most. All but two of the teams, San Diego State and UConn, are too weak and flimsy and just not healthy enough to keep their name in the papers. You might notice I have Missouri over Cincinnati even though the cats have made runs in the past. One that stands out is Texas over Duke. Sure Duke's got momentum, experience, a chance to repeat, and impact players. Nolan Smith is the X-Factor though. And he's not healthy. Jordan Hamilton can power over all others. UConn will be led by Kemba who is determined to not lose one tournament game this season. They move on.

The Southwest bracket. Some might call it the power corner. I call it the worst corner. All the extra teams have just been thrown into this bracket. I had trouble deciding which teams could prevail because none are strong enough to go all the way. Kansas has trouble beating small-town teams which is why I have Richmond defeating them. I remember watching their overconfidence and weak game versus Northern Iowa last year in the second round at T.G.I. Friday's. But how did Richmond get there? The Spiders proved themselves in the A-10 tournament and Louisville is tired and Vanderbilt is just not good in March Madness. Purdue and Notre Dame is an equal matchup with Moore and Harangody but I have Purdue going to the Final Four banged up and fried and haired.

The Southeast bracket. Upset. Central! Pittsburgh is unproven to me and come on at least one number one seed has to make the Final Four and go down early. You've already seen my 12 over 5 and apparently Florida has a 90% chance or 5/1 odds to make it past UCSB? More like 100%. Utah State is the best double-digit seed playing Kansas State. K-State made a late run led by Pullen but I don't know what it is. I'm just skeptical about them. Utah St. over Kansas St. Old Dominion is crazy good but unknown. I just know they can take down Butler and Pitt. The Zags are America's team but up against America's man, Jimmer, they can't do it. Despite how much the fans would love to see Jimmer vs. Kemba, without Davies BYU can't because they'll go down to Parsons and Florida. I almost picked Mich St. over Florida because Mich St. always makes a deep run in March. But on paper Mich St. can't seem to get it done. Florida is wicked hot right now so you'll see them in the Final Four.

The Final Four. Ohio State, Connecticut, Purdue, and Florida. Those are my picks to be seen in the Final Four. I think Kemba can take down Sullinger with his mid-range jumpers and speed. The bench will be able to help Florida overcome Purdue and because Purdue is just a sleeper.

The Championship. Connecticut vs. Florida. Kemba vs. Parsons, eh? Well, I sound like a broken record but UConn can win it all with their speed, mid-range, momentum, bench, undefeated in tournaments, and Kemba. UConn baby!

Who you got?

Sports Illustrated February Cover of the Month

Jayson Heyward makes the cut! This was shot at Disney World because the Braves' Spring Training camp is the ESPN Wide World of Sports! It narrowly beat out Rajon Rondo. Couldn't pick Rondo because the cover was not too great.
