James Franco? WonderGlen? Aidan Weinglas? Wha...?

Another mystery video.

OK, Jeff, stop sending me videos! Are you on YouTube all day?!

I think this video is a fake.  Jeff thinks it's real.  I say James Franco is doing comedy; he says James Franco is doing a favor for a friend and not happy about it. And he might be drunk.

I don't know. Some of the things in the video don't come up on a search, but Aidan Weinglas is a real person and WonderGlen is a real company. 

Decide for yourself.

The love of my life!

Finally got some pics of my lovely GF off her digital camera and I wanted to post them for all the world to see because she is H-O-T.

I don't know if she reads my blog, but if she does: 

I'm crazy about you, baby.

This is Charlotte vacationing in Europe over the summer.   We emailed and IM'ed A LOT.  And don't ask about our phone bill.

And here she is  back in the States, all tan and gorgeous!

She took this herself on her bed. For some reason, I love it.

We've taken some shots of both of us and I'll post those soon.  Am I the luckiest guy in the world or what?

Funny video! Is it real?!

Speaking of reality TV, I got sent this very strange video.  It's supposed to be a tribute to a South African hunter who went from making documentaries to making reality TV here in the States.

Pieter Voorhees Award Video

It's very strange.  I'm thinking...

1. It's real and it's just weird 'cause it's from South Africa

2. It's not real and supposed to be comedy from South Africa

3. It's not real and it's from America trying to appear to be from South Africa

I've lookd up the movie titles and other things mentioned in the video, and Wonderglen is a real company.  Everthing else, I'm still working on.  (Well I guess Nelson Mandela and Charlize Theron are real).

What do YOU think?

Worst Ideas of All Time

From this:
http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/entertainment/7412502.stm

Reality TV is rated as the second worst idea of all time behind the atom bomb, according to a survey.

They were followed by capital punishment, plastic bags and credit cards in the survey of more than 1,000 readers of the 24 Hour Museum website.

I totally agree! (So why do I watch it???)

It's official - Stewart Mandel is crazy

He does the college football power rankings on SI.com, in case you didn't know.

He has his own biases and preferences, but this week he's off the charts.

• He has mediocre 3-2 Illinois at 16, because their two losses were to really good teams.   Hey, Virginia has lost to really good teams.  You gonna put them in the top 20?
  
• He's riding the Vanderbilt hype train and puts them at 14.  They won last week by one point after Auburn gift-wrapped the game and handed it to them.
• He's got Utah at 12 because they're undefeated.  Who have they played, exactly?  They barely beat the Oregon State team that needed a fourth-quarter interception to barely beat USC?
• Bama barely beats Kentucky and Stewart ranks them #2.  Georgia barely loses to Bama and they're 10th.
• He has Mizzou at 3, just like everybody did last year before they belly-flopped out of the BCS entirely.

   Stewart, you need to WATCH THE GAMES and not just look at the final score or what the polls are saying.  Jeez!
