Unfortunate Puzzle

This is one of those Wheel Of Fortune "Before And After" puzzles. Yeah, I get it... but still.

Obama's NCAA bracket

It's neat having a cool president. Obama has officially released his NCAA Tournament bracket. We both picked North Carolina to go all the way. Maybe if N.C. wins this will be a good sign that Obama's other predictions about what to do for the economy will also come true. Go Tar Heels!

Lost: Creepy kid Ben is back

After shaking uncontrollably for 2 weeks, I finally got my Lost fix last night. Let's jump right into it:

Kudos and fish biscuits to everyone who thought that Horace and Amy's baby was Ethan. Juliette's reaction was great when she found out. "OK, I'm holding baby Ethan now, this is creepy, down you go!"

Jack, Hurley and Kate are safe... for now. That nosy Dharma check-in guy has his eye on Jack and knows something is up. Hopefully the level-headed Sawyer 2.0 will read some more books and figure out how to keep things calm before they are exposed. And I'm so glad someone finally put Jack in his place. Sawyer, er LaFleur, gave it to him good and Jack just stood there and took it in his little workman jumper.

OK, here's something that I noticed last night... and it seems to be causing a buzz with Lost fans this morning. Did you see the figure moving behind Christian in the burnt out Othersville? After Sun and Lapidus follow Christian inside and what looks like the smoke monster follows them through the door, you can see a figure standing behind Sun:

Is this supposed to be Claire? I know she's hangin' with her dad (my theory is she died in the explosion and is really dead now, just like Christian and Locke). Here's an enhanced photo:

It's not Claire. Is that a stage hand caught watching the show on a monitor? Or is it a Claire stand-in so they didn't have to pay the actress to be there on shooting day just to hover in the dark? Another Lost mystery... for now.

Creepy kid Ben is back. And unfortunately the actor seems to have gone through puberty. I guess we'll have to suspend some disbelief like we did with Walt and assume that Ben isn't rapidly aging or anything like that. Did he come on the same sub as Jack, Kate and Hurley supposedly did? Because he was so familiar with the guard, it looks as if he's been on the island for a while. I wonder if he's interacted with Sawyer, er LaFleur, and Juliette at all?

Gotta cut things short, the show is starting now... as usual, leave your comments below and we'll discuss this more.

Dora's all grown up... and slutty!

Parents are outraged at Nickelodeon this morning. They unveiled a new "tween" version of Dora The Explorer (translation: "slutty"). She doesn't look like a cute little lesbian anymore. Now, Dora actually looks like she may have fallen off of the Rock Of Love bus. Check out the photos for yourself and tell us what you think:

Now Joe Jonas hates Asians

Remember a few months ago when Miley Cyrus was making fun of Asians? Well, it looks like Joe Jonas from The Jonas Brothers thinks its funny to make squinty eyes for the camera too. This photo was making it's way all around the internet yesterday. What's up with these Disney kids? Why do they hate Asians so much?????

Snake swallows dog

This snake swallowed a dog. Collar and all.

That's one hungry sunnamabitch. Link.

Listener submission: Huge Sausage

I'll be honest, I was a little nervous opening up an email with the subject "Huge Sausage". Luckily this is what I got:



Boris,

this is the world's largest sausage. It's 6,643 feet and was made in Serbia. Looks tasty, doesn't it?
