    Medved: Happy Feet "endorsement of gay identity"

    I took my kids (ages 5 and 7) and they had no problem with it. It is hardly terrifying--Medved must not get out much. The climax of The Little Mermaid in which the Sea Witch goes bonkers is probably scarrier (that film comes to mind because my kids just watched it last weekend). There are also...

    That's Not Me

    You missed one: Jacksonville Jaguars tackle Khalif Barnes apologizing after a recent drunk driving arrest: People that really know me know that <b>that's not me</b>." Who knew NFL players were such big Brian Wilson fans?

    UCLA Cops Repeatedly Taser Iranian-American Dude

    Jerry Seinfeld is lucky Bookman the Library Cop wasn't carrying a taser. "Y'know that little stamp, the one that says "New York Public Library"? Well that may not mean anything to you, but that means a lot to me. One whole hell of a lot..."

    Frank Thomas, slam dunk HOF now?

    "Each writer may vote for as many as 10 candidates, or as few as zero." http://www.baseballhalloffame.org/history/hof_voting/default.htm And Thomas would get my vote.

    All-time favorite piece of sports journalism?

    Yet another TV thread... How I Met Your Mother now sucks...

    I liked, still like, HIMYM in an amusing 30-minute (or really 22-minute, thank you, Tivo!) way. Just read today that Jane Seymour, hot off her MILFy performance in Wedding Crashers, is going to play a law prof. who hooks up with Barney, which should be good for some laughs.
