Arnolds, and Dragons, and Kevin McHales. Oh My!


Quote of the Day
:
"Is it safe to say that he 'Went to Jarrett?'"
- Tony Kornheiser on Monday Night Football in reference to the "He went to Jared" jewelery commercials after Jake Delhomme completed a pass to Dwayne Jarrett.


Hot Bitch of the Day:

Anne Hathaway
Not only is she smoking hot, but now she has that broken, depressed girl factor after her boyfriend of 4 years was found to be a fraud, con artist, cheating people out of millions of dollars and now facing years in prison. That's good enough for me. Anne Hathaway, you are the hot bitch of the day!



Jingle All the Way!?!?



"I think this is what Arnold looks like after he watches his acting."

Today I had way too much time on my hands and ended up watching the most ridiculous, outlandish movie I have ever seen. That movie is Jingle All the Way...courtesy of ABC Family's 25 Days of Christmas. The only thing you need to know is that Arnold Schwarzenegger and Sinbad star in it! Seeing Sinbad and Arnold interact is like watching the autistic kid talk in front of the classroom. It's painful to watch and really uncomfortable for everyone involved. The first scene I watched involved Arnold Schwarzenegger's character single handedly taking on hundreds of elves and Santas at a toy factory. Not only that, but the giant Santa Claus was played by The Big Show from the WWF! (or WWE, whatever it's called now). The cast in this movie is somewhere between a 15 and Tim Allen on the unintentional comedy scale. So all in all, it was well worth the watch simply for the laughs, even if most of the laughs came at the expense of parts that weren't supposed to be funny.




Kevin McHale takes over

In sports, the Minnesota Timberwolves fired coach Randy Wittman after a 4-15 start to the season. The new coach? Celtics Hall of Famer, Kevin McHale! He stepped down as VP of Basketball Operations to coach the mess he made. I wish McHale all the luck i the world and hope he can succeed in turning that team around.




















"Good god, who put this team together!? Oh yeah, me."

Thinking about Dragons....

For about 4 hours today i sat and wondered if dragons would be able to live in weather conditions like today, a frigid 8 degrees. its no argument that these beasts must be cold blooded creatures. i orginally thought they would be like most Bradymetabolic animals and shut down to a near death state in these cold tempetures, giving the incredibly lucky knight a prime window to kill the beast while it cant defend itself. i now think that dragons might be gigantotheric, and be able to keep a higher body temperature and metabolism longer due to the creature's sheer size and surface area. this would mean the dragon would be able to fend off an approaching knight. also i would like to hypothosize that the internal system that gives the dragon the ability to breathe fire would most likely provide some heat to the dragon's core tempature, and help keep it from shutting down like other cold blooded creatures might in the extreme cold.

and this is why I dont tell my mother what i learned in school...
