Lions and Tigers and Bears, oh my!

Have you guys seen this lion hug video? It's AWESOME. I found it Wednesday night after my sister sent me this link (also hilarious). Anyway, I went over to Elrellano.com, and found this video of a lion hugging it's rescuer.


That version's from YouTube. To see the Elrellano.com version (longer), click here.

Anyway, this all brings me to a front page story on CNN.com. Apparently, a zoo keeper was "mauled to death in Denver by a 140-pound jaguar." In light of this new situation, I seriously doubt that the lion in the above video was hugging and/or kissing it's rescuer. People need to cast aside their childish fairytale beliefs and see these events as what they are. These are huge animals with a killer instinct built in. They don't even know what a hug or kiss is. Dumb asses. Although that lion hug is pretty cute...

The Police World Tour

Coming from Texas, I was pissed that the Police weren't coming within 1000 miles of Dallas for their supposed "world tour." However, as of February 24, they've added a BUNCH of new shows to the list, including Dallas! I am so excited.

The tickets start at $99.50 but knowing the band's success and the amount of shows already sold out on their website, I think it's going to cost me more than that to go. Oh well, it's Sting! Yum.

Reno 911!



So last night I went and saw Reno 911!: Miami. In a college town like this, you bet it was packed on opening night for a Comedy Central movie. There were a bunch of previews for what seems to be a year of "TV Shows Turned Box Office Money Makers." Including the Aqua Teen Hunger Force movie (which had a hilarious trailer), The Simpsons Movie, and of course, the Reno 911! movie. I guess it's a good time for them to cash in, since the Simpsons has gone 18 seasons without a full-length film.

Anyway, Reno 911 was pretty good to me. It had all of the charm and personality the show holds true to, with a funny scene involving half the cast masturbating in their hotel rooms. It's made $4, 180,000 since Friday. Not bad. Two thumbs up from me if you like the show.

Dave Chapelle and Elizabeth Smart.



It seems Dave Chappelle was right in telling off Elizabeth Smart in his 2004 stand up release, For What It's Worth. For yet again little Elizabeth has been shown up by another, younger, abducted kid. According to CNN.com, 13-year-old Clay Moore was abducted at gunpoint from a Parrish, Florida bus stop and left bound alone to a tree in a field. Soon after, Clay was able to cut through his bonds with a safety pin and escape. Afterwards, Clay walked a "considerable distance" until he found a farmer who let him use a cell phone to call his mother.

In Chappelle's stand up release he mocks Smart for not being able to escape her captors in comparison to little 7-year-old Erica Pratt. Pratt was abducted in 2002 and was able to chew through duct tape covering her face, feet and hands and then broke through a screen door in the first 24 hours of her disappearance.

I for one, am tired of hearing about the "plight" of Elizabeth Smart. That girl deserved to be gone so long, she practically asked for it. In regards to Erica Pratt and Clay Moore, kudos for being street enough to bite/tear through your restraints.
