Mugshot? That'll be on the cover of every magazine in the world. Wow! I'll be happy when that happens.

Whoops you are right. Sasha competed in 3 Olympics, including Munich (and Mexico City). When I knew him he was almost 70 and still had a back that was like a "V" (like a muscle man).

Oh, right. Got mixed up. Thx.

I knew a guy named Sasha who was a rower for the Polish team. He at the 1968 Mexico City Games when they killed all those Israeli athletes. He was in the building across and could see right into the window where they were.

That said I thought the US, Canada and Mexico were supposed to apply together? They would not build new but would use existing stadiums (8 in the US, 4 in Mexico and 2 in Canada?, or something like that?)

When I was about 10 I saved a kid who fell down a sewer and into the pipe after a heavy rain. My friends and I took off the lid and I climbed in. Then I dropped a rope down the 20' pipe and pulled the kid out. The kid didn't speak English and as soon as he got out him and his brother ran away. The cops stopped by later and patted me on the back.

Next day another kid did the same thing and he was on the news and the mayor of Los Angeles gave him a fucking medal.

Just doesn't make me think "Let's get THIS guy to promote "mental health".

Didn't the star of Ted Lasso have his wife served divorce papers while she was on stage at the Sundance Film Festival last year?

Reminds me of the guy who Rick-rolled Rick Astley.

Now THAT'S a great story. Glad to hear he's so cool. I've always liked him.

Also glad no charges filed against him.

The guy said 32,000 lbs of fireworks, not 5,000.

Upvote I guess...

It's hard to get ahead nowadays.

Exactly. Every landlord does this.

My friend Glen does driveways. He could be there tomorrow to bid them a new concrete launchpad. He would be there today but he has a hangover.

I was in Singapore recently in a hotel room. It had a room safe so we opened it and, surprise, a bible. I was a little weirded out.

Bravo!

They are called the "Stinkeye Research Team".

Magicians Penn and Teller invented a video game that is "The most boring video game in the world". It's simply driving straight ahead for 24 hours. They did it just as a goof.

What's that George Clooney movie "The Monuments Men"? In WW2 they saved 5 million pieces of art that had been stolen by Nazis.

"Many were the product of looting by Adolf Hitler and the Nazis. Others had been legitimately evacuated from museums for safekeeping. Monuments Men oversaw the safeguarding, cataloguing, removal and packing of all works from all these repositories."

They had to make up all the procedures because no army had ever thought of saving cultural property in this way before.

I'm watching a Netflix doc called Killer Sally right now. I searched for it and it says "Not available anywhere for streaming".

My favorite:

Tina Fey hosting the Oscars: "Gravity: the movie that proves George Clooney would rather fly off into space and die than spend another minute with a woman his age".

Where do you get a sat phone?

I really miss the free hot coffee. Damn.
