Most Ridiculous Item of the Day

A Nebraska judge ordered a convicted child molestor to 10 years probation, rather than giving him a much-deserved prison sentence.

The judge feels the molestor is too short for prison (said child molestor is 5′1”).

Seriously, I can’t make this stuff up. You can read it for yourself.

It’s appalling. Apparently she feels he would be in too much danger if he went to prison. She even stated, “”I truly hope that my bet on you being OK out in society is not misplaced.”

She’s betting that he’ll be OK once he’s back in society? When he offends again (which he will), she should be charged as an accessory.

I’m totally embarassed for whoever is responsible for entrusting her to uphold the law.

I give it….1 week

The Chicks offer an apology to The View for dissing them in their recent Time Magazine article.

I give it about a week before they retract it

American Idol

Last night’s AI proved to be enjoyable and entertaining. I can’t really compare it to previous finales because I haven’t watched a finale since Kelly Clarkson won the first season.

Here are some of the moments from the finale that I’m not likely to ever forget:

#10- the video collage of Simon right at the beginning of the show
#9- Meatloaf seizing at the beginning of his song. I thought he was awful. I almost wish the judges would have commented on the celebrity performances because I’m dying to know what Simon would have said. Plus, I’m weirded out because Meatloaf looked like a scary, homeless version of one of my college professors (G. Deaton).
#8- McBoobies.

#7- Any scene involving Michael Sandecki, aka Fake Aiken. Here are some (poor quality) pics. His facial expressions are priceless! The faces he makes while singing are similar to the ones I make if I stub my toe or better yet, the face I made when I saw Clay Aiken and his new 'do. These are pics of him during his performance last night.

#6- when Chicken Little attempted to sing “Tobacco Road” in a bass voice and then went on to embarass himself further by singing “What’s up Puthycat.” I’m convinced whoever chose him to perform that did so for the sole purpose of giving me blog material. Note to self: Write the produtherth and ask them to rethink having thomeone with an obviouth lithp thing a thong with a million S’s in it.
#5- Carrie Underwoods performances. She’s so beautiful and incredibly talented. She’s left no doubt that she deserved to win last year.
#4- Mary J Blige’s outfit which makes it look like her boobs are sweating profusly.
#3- Elliot’s “One” performance which was awesome. He definitely should have chosen that song during the competition. He was awesome. I’ll be one of the first in line to purchase his CD.
#2- “In the Gheto” performance by Taylor and Toni Braxton. Taylor was great; Toni, on the other hand, had to be lip syncing. Her mouth moving was not in sync with the words and every other word was too airy to even hear. She was terrible- and the part where she forced Taylor to molest her was just embarassing. He definitely had to exert some Soul Control at that moment.
#1- The part where Taylor won. After Chris was booted, I didn’t have a preference about who won. I think this year is the best Idol since season one. I think each of the last four contestants, Elliot, Chris, Katharine, and Taylor will go onto have good careers.

X-Men Punk’d

Poor Hugh Jackman. The season finale of Punk’d involved Hugh Jackman being accused of burning down Brett Ratner’s multi-million dollar house (Brett directed X-Men III). I feel so bad for Hugh- he looks awful in the clip because he thinks he’s responsible for leaving on the gas on Brett’s bar-b-que and the firemen convince Hugh thats what caused the fire.

Prior to them lighting the grill, Brett took Hugh around his house to show off his stuff. You know, things like the $1.5 million paintings and the watch that Frank Sinatra (supposedly) gave Brett right off his wrist. He goes into every little detail of the house and how unique things are. He commented that it took him 3 years to build this house to his liking.

Brett tells Hugh that his girlfriend is coming over that night and he’s trying to make a romantic dinner for her, but he can’t get the grill started. Hugh gives it a shot, but ultimately cannot get a fire going and concludes that when they built the house, they must not have turned on the gas line. Brett says no problem, they can just run to Mr. Chows and pick up some dinner.

They leave to grab the grub, and the crew comes in and sets up the fire. When Brett and Hugh return, they arrive to see numerous fire trucks, emergency personnel, and all you can see is smoke and fire. It’s unbelievable the lengths they went through to set up the punk. Watch the video.

The funniest part of the whole prank was when the Fire Chief revealed to Hugh that he was being punk’d and Hugh had this confused look on his face. It wasn’t until Hugh saw the cameras and everyone started laughing and clapping that it sunk it. I wonder what the Australian term for “punk’d” is-
