More randomness.....
1) Shawn Kemp is a changed man with a brand new perspective on life.....um, yeah..."perspective"....that's right:
Kemp, a 36 year ex-NBA star power forward of the 90's is attempting a comeback. He has reportedly lost 75 pounds, is doing a lot of jogging and playing competitively, and is actively trying out for various NBA clubs in hopes of being signed to a contract, probably requiring participation in some league sanctioned summer league.
From si.com: "Kemp was also featured in a story by Sports Illustrated in 1998 detailing athletes with out-of-wedlock children. The article said he reportedly fathered at least seven children by six different women. 'That was a little part of my life,' Kemp said on the subject of his checkered past."
That's right: his seven children (by six women) are a "little part of his life." Man, are they ever luuuuuucky little suckers to have Shawn for a dad.
2) Ohio: The blind leading the soon to be blind.
Another big WTF?!? on this one: A $500,000 bond has been set by Berea County Judge Marisa Meyer for the release of noted library masturbater Mike Cooper. That's right: one half a billion dollars for getting caught playing with himself in a cubicle in a library while surfing the internet. Unbelievable. The judge says that she is "uncomfortable releasing Mr. Cooper prior to a psychiatric evaluation."
Here's the link.
3) Ann Coulter vs. Matt Lauer/Sanity:
I post this having watched the video of their most recent interview once. Once was enough.
You may say "who cares?" But there are hundreds of thousands of people in the US who actually buy her books, just like their are 2m folks who watch Bill O'Reilly every night. And they are, simply, frightening.
6/08/06 Update: Ann Coulter's newest book is number 1 on Amazon.com. Unbelievable.
4) For those of you who got all excited about the proposed gay marraige ban being discussed in Congress this week...
....well, I guess you got all worked up with no place to go (except some library in Ohio):it's over.
