So, this news program (its been on for thirty years or so.) called 60 Minutes had an exclusive interview with George Lucas last evening. It was briliant, showed even more footage, and I believe that I soiled myself.

My buddy trains at the Team Quest (Randy's) gym, in Gresham, under Chris Leben and the like. Last night, he and I were talking about Belfort, and how he has an A game, and a C game. The guy is just on or off. Too bad, really, because he had potential originally.
Feckin' shoulders, man!
Take care!

The Chuck/Randy rematch ought to be great too. Tito is scheduled to fight Shamrock and Liddel here soon. He (Tito) had his nose broken recently (Belfort?) and can't fight Shamrock on a card in the same UFC as Chuck and Randy, but soon. Oh, yes...soon
Yeah, OZ should'a quit at season three. Ted fo-eva!

My wife bought the complete Father Ted for me last year. It has seasons 1-3, as well as "A Very Christmassy Ted."
Did I already tell you this? It has to be the pain meds and Guinness. They work well together.

sounds like fun. I haven't played poker in years. My friends and I would get together and hold mini tournaments, but I always ended up loosing.
Probably because I would just sit around and drink, thereby destroying all strategy producing portions of my brain.

Contender boxer takes own life
Posted: Tuesday February 15, 2005 4:39PM; Updated: Tuesday February 15, 2005 4:42PM
PHILADELPHIA (AP) -- A promising young boxer who got the break of a lifetime when he was selected by NBC's upcoming reality TV program, The Contender, committed suicide.
Najai Turpin shot himself in the head early Monday while sitting with his girlfriend in a parked car outside the West Philadelphia gym where he trained, police said. Investigators were unsure why the 23-year-old fighter took his life.
"None of us really know what brought this about," Percy "Buster" Custus, a trainer who had worked with Turpin since he was 12, said Tuesday. "You just want to see the boys come out of the neighborhood. From the time they're young kids, you really want to see them make it. And he was right there."
Produced by reality TV mogul Mark Burnett, The Contender will follow the lives of 16 boxers competing against each other for a chance at a million-dollar purse. The program, scheduled to debut March 7, will go on as planned, NBC said. The episodes involving Turpin already had been taped.
A tribute to Turpin will be added to the show. Viewers also will be offered a chance to donate money to a trust fund set up to support Turpin's 2-year-old daughter.
Police said they didn't know where Turpin got the gun. He was not licensed to carry a handgun and the weapon was not registered to him.
Custus said the boxer had enjoyed his experiences with the show but seemed troubled in recent weeks. He said Turpin abruptly left a training camp in the Poconos and returned home to Philadelphia, saying he missed his family.
Turpin had a 13-1 record and had won a city Recreation Department title before he was picked for The Contender. A biography on the show's Web site called him an "extremely soft-spoken" but focused fighter who worked two day jobs to support his family.
"You would never know he was a fighter," Custus said. "He was a tough guy in the ring. He was a vicious fighter. But outside the ring he was a different man."
NBC released a statement from Burnett in which he called Turpin a "great fighter with tremendous heart and courage."
"The episode in which he was most depicted will stand as a wonderful testament to who he was. It will not be changed," Burnett wrote.
NBC spokeswoman Rebecca Marks declined to say how Turpin had fared in the show, which is to conclude with a live championship bout between two finalists in May. She said, however, that the show will not need to be overhauled because of Turpin's death.
Every contestant was being paid $1,500 per week to stay in training pending the finale.
Turpin worked out at the James Shuler Memorial Gym, a haven for serious fighters from a rough neighborhood. Tybius Flowers, another boxer at the gym, was murdered last year shortly before he was to appear as a key witness in a murder trial.

Mr. Peter King sums up all my thoughts about the big game.
Don't you just hate fair weather fans, especially the oiks that think they know everything after 5 mins. For example:
Guy: Well, the Eagles got absolutely humped last night. I mean I only saw until halftime but they were getting absolutely humped.
Me: Losing by three points isn't exactly getting humped.
Guy: Yes...

i was wondering myself, when i'm done with school i'll have spend some 12 to 14.000$ on tuition alone and most of that time i spend sitting at home learning from internet tutorials to make the stuff required for school assignments.
and the reall bitch is that starting this year they totally reorganized my education to start working in projects that are meant to deliver finished products like cellphone games.
i.e. in other words, actual valuable work experience instead of a timedrain with next to no educational value.
if i didn't need the diploma i'd tell them to stuff it.
