An Honest Question

Does anyone honestly give a crap about David Blaine? Did anyone ever?

This isn't a link to a funny article or anything. I just really want to know.

Man Who Farts at Police Charged with Assault

No, really. He passed gas and then waved it at them.

I wonder what would've happened if he had sharted at them by accident.

Clooney could've handled this.

All I'm saying is, I bet his pet pig never held him hostage.

On a side note, is it just me, or was Arnold the smartest character on Green Acres? I'm surprised he never held Ava Gabor and Eddie Albert hostage.

Thanks to Jennie for reminding me last night while we were watching Out of Sight that George Clooney once owned a pig for a pet.

This makes total sense to me.

You're hanging out in a motel, you're shooting up heroin, and you think you accidentally inject air into your veins.

Of course the logical thing to do is to run to Denny's and try to cut your own arm off.

Also, I'm glad they closed the Denny's to clean up. That much blood on the counter would definitely ruin my enjoyment of a delicious Moons Over My Hammy.

Um, wow.

Everyone knows about William Shatner's career as a musician. His 1968 album The Transformed Man is nigh unlistenable, but his 2004 follow-up, Has Been, which was produced by the inimitable Ben Folds, is an excellent album. And everyone has seen or at least heard about his performance of Elton John's Rocket Man.

But did you know that Leonard Nimoy also had a career as a musician? I didn't, either, until I saw this.

I hope Guillermo Del Toro has seen this. And that he uses the song during the closing credits of The Hobbit.

Man Uses Loose Change to Buy Car

Seriously.

I'm not at all surprised that it happened in Ohio, either.

EDIT: I realized that my modifier was dangling in the original title of this post. The man used loose change to buy a car, he did not buy a car that was filled with loose change. Though that would have been equally strange.
