She'll show you a good time then she'll show you the door

15-1?

You cannot give enough credit to the players and coaches for battling through all the injuries and adversity to still give themselves a shot at the end of the game to beat the defending Super Bowl champions. But it was just too much to overcome. Now the tough part…going on the road and beating a team you are expected to beat despite all the injuries. A loss to the Falcons and that feel-good 2-0 start would be a distant memory. Nothing to it, but to do it.

--Hopefully Atlanta forgets for one more week that Jerious Norwood is its best back. Jerious is averaging 4.8 yds a pop while Warrick is at 3.5. Dunn has 55 touches for 203 yards. Norwood has touched the ball just 26 times, but has 166 yards. The Falcons D is 28th against the run, but 8th against the pass.

--I didn’t think the Titans were bad going into the season, but I didn’t think the defense would look this good. Those hillbillies have won 5 straight road games.

--I probably have two or three more weeks to feel good about my Super Bowl pick, the Steelers, so let me point out they’ve gotten to 3-0 by an average score of 32-9.

--The Chiefs have two touchdowns – not a surprise. The Rams have two touchdowns – WTF?!

--Back in the day the Eagles based those hideous looking uniforms and colors on the Swedish flag because???

--Tom Brady made it three straight games with just 6 incompletions in each. 10 TDs, 18 incompletions and a completion % of 79.5. Stoopid. The Patriots have scored points in 31 straight quarters dating back to last season.

--Seriously we’re going into Week 4 and LaMont Jordan and Jamal Lewis are 2-3 in rushing.

--Only one player in league history has gotten to 100 career receptions faster than Reggie Bush. That would be Anquan Boldin.

--He missed a week and yet Andre Johnson still has more receiving yards than either T.J. Housh@#$^ and Marvin Harrison.

--24 of Chad Johnson’s 25 catches have gone for first downs. The only player with 10 catches or more who has gotten a first down on every one? Calvin Johnson with 10 catches for 10 first downs.

--Rex Grossman and Tarvaris Jackson are the only QBs whose passer ratings are lower than their completions percentages.

--Ahman Green basically missed all of Sunday’s game and yet he’s still above LT and Larry Johnson on the rushing list. LT is averaging 2.3 yds a pop while LJ is getting 2.8.

--Maybe you’ve seen his drunken pictures around online, but no one takes a picture like Jeff Reed

--Note to Marshall Faulk, Howie Mandel is a germaphobe so when he offers to give you a fist bump instead of shaking hands take it and don't be a f'n jerk and touch him in the crotchal region.

--I’m sure you’ve seen it by now or heard it, but we're in overtime in a Saturday night SEC game between Georgia and Alabama and Bama just got a field goal and now Georgia is taking the field when Mike Patrick busts this out to Todd Blackledge...

--“You cannot change the stripes of a leopard.” – Really, Emmett?! You meant to say that…three times?!

--A Meg White sex tape?! Apparently not.

--John Mayer and Minka Kelly?! Bret and now John have got it going on…


--Heroes is back, baby!

--Vince, Fred Claus? Really?

--Yeah, they can’t make a chip that doesn’t stain your fingers, but Collisions is the best Doritos idea since Cool Ranch.

--I had never given thought to how great my life would be if I was Matthew Modine and then a rain-soaked Mary Louise Parker sat on his desk, put a leg on each side of him and off went the panties. Yeah, she’s just a little hot as opposed to the freaky skeleton known as Mary-Ashley (it’s easier than figuring out which one is actually on the show).
http://www.chroniclejournal.com/includes/CP_stories/59/59150.jpg
--Not that it matters one bit, but Maya Randolph is out on SNL, oh wait she’s back in, oh wait it doesn't matter. LeBron and Kanye in this week for the premiere.

--Your The Children Are Our Future, So We Must Crush ‘Em Now story of the week comes to us from a study by The Meth Project. Nearly 25% of teenagers said it would be “very or somewhat easy” to get a hold of meth. And what’s really promising is that one in three believe there is only a “slight or no risk” in trying it once or twice. And now the cherry on top of the meth sundae, one in four punk teenagers believe that there are BENEFITS to using meth. More good news that kids today are intelligent beings, 22% say not only does meth help you lose weight, but it also helps you deal with boredom. Of those kids who have used 77% say they first tried it at the age of 15 or younger.

--The Daily Show has diagnosed Rudy Giuliani with 9/11 Tourette’s. True that. In that same vein two of Rudy’s supporters are holding a fundraiser for him and requesting a donation of $9.11 a person.

--Jessica Biel as Wonder Woman in that Justice League movie?!

--There are loser fans and then there are Cubs fans. Paul and Teri Fields have waited 15 long years to have a baby and so what do they name this little boy blessing? Wrigley, yeah, Wrigley Fields. They were cool enough to acknowledge that if he gets teased he can go by his middle name, which is Alexander of Alexander’s Terrible, Horrible, No Good, Very Bad Day fame.

--Family Guy stopped being must-see TV for me a while back, but the Star Wars episode was must-see and it delivered except for the Obi Wan “I’ve Had The Time of My Life” waste of two minutes.
“What are we paying by the laser now?”

--Unfortunately I think Floyd will win, but gotta love Ricky Hatton combined with live television…


--Dancing With The Stars is back…yawn…I’ll take Kelly/Jennie Garth.
http://www.theballroomdancecompany.com/Images/media_dancewiththestars.jpgMark Cuban gets the pleasure of playing with Kym.

--Stop the presses!!! The release date for Transformers 2 is…wait for it…no, really you’re gonna have to wait for it a long, long time. June 26th 2009 to be exact.

--One word: Oklahoma. The first line from the AP story sums it up nicely: “The coach of Oklahoma City's minor-league hockey team helped prevent a possible stampede of Belgian horses at the Oklahoma State Fair by biting one of the animals on its ear.”
So Doug Sauter is the coach and when he saw one horse break free from its reigns thereby spooking other horses Doug knew what to do, "That's how you stymie a horse. You bite as hard as you can, and it won't move."
Now you know…

--Old people like their Matlock, but in Mahopac, New York they looove their doughnuts. Some group donated doughnuts and desserts to the senior centers in the county, but the boss man in Mahopac isn’t letting his seniors have them because it sets a bad nutritional precedent seeing as how they have long lives in front of them that makes sense. So yeah, some of the seniors are striking, not that 80-year-old Rita Jorgensen cares, "It was disgusting the way people went after them. I think the senior center did them a favor by taking it away." Center for Science in the Public Interest guy Michael Jacobson has a solution, "Senior citizens can walk down to the store and buy doughnuts. Nobody's stopping them." Why not add, “They stormed the beaches at Normandy so why can’t they storm the shelves at the Qwik-E-Mart?” Let them eat cake…and doughnuts.

--Your dumbass of the week comes to us from, you’re never going to believe this, but Nashville. Arcarlos Barbour was pulled over Monday morning because he was tailgating another car on the road. Kinda weak, but dumbass was gonna go down for something eventually. So a police dog starts a sniffin’ and the driver admits he has some smoke and so he gives the cops a dime bag, but that meddlin’ dog kept a sniffin’. Whoops, Arcarlos musta forgot about the 72 pounds of weed he had smartly hid the last place anyone would look…the trunk.

--A couple of months ago The NY Post came out with a list of the 100 greatest cover songs ever. Shall we take a look? At 100 we find Bill Murray/Nick Winters’ version of Star Wars…

At 87 Johnny Cash’s “Hurt”, which shoulda been higher. U2’s version of “Helter Skelter” at 82. I’ve never heard Radiohead’s version of “Nobody Does It Better”, but it’s 64. Whitney’s cover of Dolly’s “I Will Always Love You” is 59. Another Dolly cover at 56 for The White Stripes’ “Jolene”. Sonic Youth’s “Superstar” (Karen Carpenter) would’ve been in my top 10, but checked in at 47. I don’t think of it as a cover, Jimi’s “Star Spangled Banner” is 34th. Jimi at 24 with Dylan’s “All Along the Watchtower”. Soft Cell’s “Tainted Love” apparently a cover and at 10. My # 1 is their # 8…

Good one at 7 with “Personal Jesus” from Johnny Cash. I’m all right with Alien Ant Farm’s “Smooth Criminal” at 6. At # 4 we find Sinead’s “Nothing Compares 2 U”. The Bangles with “Hazy Shade of Winter” at 3. At 2 we get Jonathan Coulton’s “Baby Got Back”. And the # 1 cover song of all-time according to The NY Post is…Dolly Parton’s “Stairway to Heaven”?!

The 1980's

I wasn't big into fashion in the 1980's. Being a young mother with two children under 6, I wasn't big into fashion, period! But I do remember falling in love with the full skirted dresses that were based on 1950's styles.

I would have looked longingly at this dress back then, but since I didn't have anywhere to wear it, it would have stayed on the rack at my favorite department store. Now I can offer it to you as vintage fashion!

A strange thing has happened lately. "80's dress" is the number one search term on my website for the last 2 or 3 months. So, for those of you looking for a bit of 80's style, we've heard you loud and clear!

These Guys Are Good

How good, remains to be seen, but hell how can you not like what you have seen two games in? The offense has what is called elsewhere in the league (except Atlanta) a q-u-a-r-t-e-r-b-a-c-k. When you think about it, it kinda makes sense for the most important position in sports and the guy who touches the football the most often on the field should actually know what the f’ he’s doing out there. Interesting theory that I can only assume is relatively knew among NFL teams. The Texans have that now. It’s nice to have, makes winning a lot easier. So does a pass rush and BMFs like DeMeco and Dunta. Next up the Colts and what? No Andre? So.

--Far be it from me to be petty and concern myself over meaningless power rankings, but c’mon Peter King the Titans 8th and the Texans 10th?! Ummm, one of those teams still doesn’t have a loss and didn’t get lucky in its opening week win.

--More from Monday Morning Quarterback…he points out that Chris Brown has 13 more rushing yards than LaDainian, Reggie Bush, and Maurice Jones-Drew combined.

--Maybe it wasn’t the best thing in the world to have those top two picks in fantasy drafts. LT has 68 rushing yards on 35 carries while Steven Jackson has fewer rushing yards than the likes of Cadillac and Lendale. After catching 90 passes a year ago Steven has just four thus far.

--Let’s go through the list of QBs who have played two games and completed a higher percentage than Matt Schaub’s 72% rate. Tom Brady, done. Oddly enough the Cowboys lead the league in scoring yet Tony Romo’s completion rate of 54.7% is among the worst in the league. His rating is 3rd while Schaub’s is 6th.

--Jeff Garcia has four 40+ yard completions to lead the league. Carson Palmer has zero.

--Joey “don’t call me Carr” Harrington has been sacked 13 times while no one else has been sacked more than 7. But if the NFL ever turns into a piano recital well the Falcons will get the last laugh.

--The Cardinals are averaging twice as many yards a carry 4.6 than the Chargers are.

--The Texans have more sacks than either the Ravens or Chargers. The Texans have allowed fewer rushing yards than the Bears and rank 5th in that category.

--Catch of the week has to go to Braylon for that diving grab landing at the 5 and sliding into the end zone.

--I guess when you’re Ed “Guns” Hochuli you don’t worry about some football player getting mad because to the entire world Ed says, "It was not a hold. The defender was just overpowered."

--More impressive: Tom Brady with 12 incompletions and 6 TD passes through two games or Sam Bradford through 3 with 15 incompletions and 11 TD throws?

--New Material Alert!!! I think we’re gonna need a certain someone to start answering phone calls again.


Quick Hitters and Random Thoughts

--South Carolina is one hardcore motherf’n state! A 59-year-old guy was swimming in Lake Moultrie when he came across a 600-pound alligator. Advantage: Alligator. Department of Natural Resources officers were called in and they promptly shot the 12-foot alligator. Then being this is South Carolina they gutted the gator and got the man’s arm back. Ol’ One Arm was airlifted to the hospital while someone offered up their cooler and ice so they could take the man’s arm to the hospital by ambulance. No word if the reattachment was successful and no word on whether they wanted their cooler back.

--Only in Curb will you hear the words “revenge masturbatory payback” strung together. Wow, masturbatory is a real word. Who knew?

--Next up on Oxygen a reality show with Deion and family – Prime-Time Love. Oh boy, we have to wait until February?! Who can wait?

--D-Wade is going through a separation and you know how hard that can be. It must be tough for him right now. I mean hopefully his new playmate can help him through the pain...

--Look I’ve never watched 30 Rock so clearly I'm qualified to say it had no business beating out The Office for an Emmy. Obviously Sopranos was gonna win Best Drama, but everyone knows it was Heroes. Nancy and Celia went 0 fer Weeds, which sucked. It’s not easy, but Drama shoulda gotten over on Ari. Locke over Ben in the battle of Lostie and Other when Hiro shoulda won. The Emmys did get one thing right though…Two and a Half Men – 4 Nominations. 0 Wins.
And there was this…


--Yeah, that’s about right…Drudge Headline…Claim: 6-year-old Aussie boy ran ‘sex club’ at school.

--Oh the carnie life…This from Moscow, Idaho (apparently Red Dawn really happened but all they got was a town in Idaho) where 22-year-old Joshua Frank works as a carnie. So Carnie is driving home and boom! he hits a telephone pole. And does Carnie blame it on himself and his bumper car driving? No, Carnie blames it on the guy and gal having Business Time in his backseat. Whatever. Carnie crashed and then ran home leaving the, no doubt lovely, couple. Through incredibly exhaustive research police were able to find Carnie at his home in a nearby trailer park.

--Note to Buff Bagwell please stop wrestling. You can't be making that much showing your stuff to a county fair crowd. Most pathetic thing I've ever seen on Real Sports. And holy crap how about The Patriot saying he was downing 100 pain pills a day!

He drinks where he lies, he's covered with flies

So Far, So Good

Two things are obvious following Sunday’s game at Reliant. The Chiefs suck. The Texans don’t. Just how good the Texans are remains to be seen, but clearly they are no longer in the bottom tier of NFL teams. The most promising aspect was that Houston has plenty of room for improvement and should’ve dominated that game even more. We’ll see what happens Sunday in Carolina because that team is balanced on both sides of the ball and has just as good a chance as any to represent the NFC in the Super Bowl.

--I’m fairly sure by now you’ve seen this, but on the off chance you didn’t see that disgraceful Duck…


--I prefer this video on 4th and 1…


--Really Chiefs a kicker on your practice squad?! That’s where Justin Medlock, 5th round pick, landed this week after badly missing that 30-yard field goal against the Texans.

--In his final 7 games a year ago Randy Moss had 202 yards receiving and 0 touchdowns. One game with Tom Brady and he has 183 yards and 1 TD. In his last 18 games with Oakland he went over 100 yards all of one time.

--Seriously just when you think things aren’t ever going to get better come Sunday either Michigan or Notre Dame will be 0-3. Beautiful.

--Okay Owls you gave up six touchdown passes and over 400 yards to Baylor last week and now you have Texas Tech so, uhh, yeah, good luck.

--Heeeeeyyyy, Hayden Panettiere is all of 18 years old now and in her infinite wisdom her and Laguna’s Stephen are no more.
Do yourself a favor and go out and buy Heroes on DVD. It's worth it.

--What do you think when you’re eating Campbell’s Cream of Mushroom soup and you think it tastes bad. Usually something like, “well what did I expect it’s f’n Cream of Mushroom,” right? I mean if it tastes bad how do you really know? An elderly couple in Fort Collins, Colorado knew it tasted bad, but it shouldn’t have been that bad. Yeah, their lawsuit against Campbell’s states, "The foul taste was apparently caused by the presence of a large piece of rubber lodged at the bottom of the can. Upon further examination, it appeared to the Smiths that the rubber was, in fact, a condom." According to the Smiths when they contacted Campbell’s they didn’t want to pay for the family’s medical expenses, but in all fairness to Campbell’s it did offer the family discount coupons for its soups featuring those new rubber croutons.

--Tron 2 sounds promising what with a couple of Lost writers at the helm, but I’m sure it’ll get screwed up. Jeff Bridges absolutely has to make a cameo.


--I was pissed about not seeing The White Stripes in Austin this weekend at ACL. I was, until I learned they cancelled. Apparently Meg’s acute anxiety is prohibiting the band from traveling. The Killers are my much cheaper and closer weekend substitute.

He goes to sleep by falling down on his face

It’s Football Time!!!!!

It’s here, it’s finally here. Sunday it all gets going with the Chiefs and Texans. Are the Texans this good? Are the Chiefs that bad? Does Brodie Croyle have a hotter wife than Tony Gonzalez? Does Jason Dunn understand how many years Deron Cherry played with the Chiefs? Will Dunta be okay after that crazy sh** last weekend? Will Jacoby Jones cartwheel or backflip into the end zone when he returns his first regular season punt for a score? Will Mario bring it every single down? Will Petey get burned more often than C.C.? So many questions to answer. Can’t hardly wait. Oh, my meaningless prediction for the Texans is 8-8. Not bad, not great, but in the right direction.

--Seriously Bill Maas, back in July when you got arrested with a woman half your age while in possession of a gun, pot, coke, and ecstasy that probably should have been a wake up call. Now you’re getting busted while trying to board a plane with a loaded 9mm handgun in your carry-on?! WTF happened to you?! You used to have a career talking about football. Was that too easy?

----I’m not sure, but I think Mark Mangino likes it when his players get flagged for excessive celebration…


Quick Hitters and Random Thoughts

--Rejoice November 6th The Flight of the Conchords comes out on DVD. Fan-tastic move bringing in Demetri Martin although he could’ve been used more and they could’ve easily done an hour-long season finale.

--What a wasted season for Entourage. Thankfully Curb returns!

--Can you stand the wait for the trainwreck that’ll be Britney’s “performance” at Sunday’s VMAs?

--The day has finally come, Jenna Fischer and her husband are divorcing after 7 years of holy matrimony. Time to make my move, which right now consists of sending her a MySpace message stating:

I understand how difficult celebrity can be on relationships. You see I’m a Sports Radio 610 talk show host, but you probably already knew that from the billboards (wait, that’s not us), maybe you knew that from the mention in Barron’s column about my promotion (wait, there hasn’t been a mention), maybe you knew that because of the station’s endless promotions of The Night Shift (wait, that never happens either), maybe you knew that because, well because I just told you. Anyway, I’m sure you have a lot of loser groupies, but I am not among them, (wait I am). Oh well if you ever feel like slumming and you enjoy all night Jager sessions, passing out and then putting together bits and pieces of the night through the text messages you received and sent then I am the loser groupie for you.

--Speaking of the funniest show on network television. Season 3 blooper reel…


--Good God, Howie you are one worthless “chef”.

--When the story ends with “was detained by the mortician until officers arrived” it usually has a promising beginning. This one we head to Flagstaff for as at 8 o’ clock the other night a funeral director looked outside of the church the ongoing funeral was at and saw a guy get into the hearse…..and start stealing the flowers. The guy was drunk off his ass and yeah, “was detained by the mortician until officers arrived.”

--The next Street Fighter movie is going to focus on Chun Li?!

--I cannot wait for this…


--Your father-daughter bonding moment of the week comes to us from Reno. There Lucien Hoffman and his two-year-old enjoyed a lovely afternoon at the Mustang Ranch and by “enjoyed” I mean he went in for a couple of hours while his two-year-old daughter stayed in the car in the 95 degree heat. Yeah, thankfully a security guard spotted the little one crying and got her out of the car. Police arrested Daddy who told the cops he was “attending a function at the brothel.”

--How can you have a Throw Momma From The Train sequel without Anne Ramsey/Ma Fratelli?!

--Oh young love in Long Island…22-year-old Yudith was out with her 21-year-old boyfriend Paulito. Yudith was driving, but drunk Paulito wanted to take the wheel. Finally Yudith pulled over, got out and started walking away. She should have run and she should have gotten off the road…cause…Paulito es loco. He ran her down and then crashed into a fence before running from the cops and eventually being arrested. She has a broken leg and some cuts, but she made her point, dude was too drunk to drive. She’s gonna hold that over him a long time.

--One more drinky drink story, this time from Wisconsin. There 43-year-old Harvey Miller was too drunk to drive by himself so he got his friend to help. Oh yeah, Harvey ain’t got no legs so he steered while his boy operated the gas pedal and brake. Yeah, they got stopped and arrested. It was legless Harvey’s third, third! drunk driving offense.

--I accidentally watched five minutes of Snakes on a Plane the other night and who should I see, but Riggins from Friday Night Lights joining the mile high club and that evil chick, Sally, from Conchords.

--I’m not saying Des Moines has some weirdo crimes, but Des Moines has some weirdo crimes (I didn’t say it, I wrote it, it’s allowed, get off my back). Father and his 22-year-old son Patrick live in the same house, but domestic bliss was smashed when son threw a Cheetos bag at father and father ended up with a cut on the bridge of his nose. Father’s name was Michael and in the police report it actually states, "Michael's T-shirt was also covered in Cheeto dust." Oh yeah, Patrick admitted to the police he was on meth and that’s why he was insane enough to launch a bag of Cheetos at a fellow human being knowing damn well how sharp the those bags are.

--I went over the seven new fabulously fried items that will be unleashed at the State Fair of Texas this year. Minnesota is having its State Fair and apparently the Turkey To Go store is fairly popular. All 12 days of the Fair they fry 10 turkeys at a time from sunup to sundown. Anyway the all too trusting Minnesotans have their safe in a spot where customers can see it and oh yeah, they usually don’t lock the safe. So some genius safe cracker came in and this is how he outsmarted the cashier at the counter as told by the owner, "One guy came up and bought a sandwich and what happened was he requested skin. We don't get that very often." So yeah, the cashier went to the back and when he got back the money in the safe was gone. And yeah, the owner and his employees rarely go to the bank like the majority of Fair vendors do and so the robber got away with $20,000, but that bastard didn’t get his turkey skin so joke’s on him.

1930's Original Fashion Illustrations

Recently at auction, we came upon a portfolio of original 1930's fashion illustrations by Dot Levin. Ms. Levin also signed her work Iris, Irissa, and Iris Levin. We were told by the auctioneer that Dot Levin was an artist and illustrator whose work was featured in many magazines and newspapers in the 1930's and 40's.


We have 10 separate lots of these illustrations going up for auction tonight on EBay. Most are worked in pen & ink with a few watercolors and pencil sketches among the lots.


These are great for framing for all you vintage fashion enthusiasts! I've kept a couple for myself and they'll be gracing the wall of my office soon.
