Tommy Lee is a musician who I am not a fan of and I think he is just a big walking pile of crap and there are a few reasons why I think that and the biggest reason of all would be his attitude. His attitude both when he …

I just read Bengals’ running back Cedric Benson has been arrested on assault charges. Why do I feel like I have been expecting this ever since he first signed with the team.

My interest in the actor Viggo Mortensen materialised after I had seen him many years ago in the first “Lord of the Rings” movie. Before that I had never even heard of him, but it was his performance in the trilogy as the hero Aragorn that made me wonder …

A woman worthy of admiration is the great actress/singer, Debbie Reynolds. She’s had a terrific career in show business, and she’s one gutsy lady to boot.
Just a few highlights off the top of my head that I often think about when the name Debbie Reynolds is finished.
First, I …

David Beckham is an English soccer player - but that sentence hardly does justice to the massive levels of support, hype and criticism that this player has received over the course of his playing career, whether it be in England, Italy or the U.S. Add to that his marriage …

There is something that is so different from performers and “personalities.” There seems to be a rip in the balance of mankind and “personalities” can do whatever they please, while performers have to watch their every step. Sometimes, however, I do think “personalities” can often times be performers as …

The last I saw of Packers running back Brandon Jackson was late last season when he was getting limited carries as a back up; following the emergence of Ryan Grant. Even though Jackson didn’t do enough to hold his own as a starter, giving Grant the opportunity, he did …

I see linebacker Joey Porter is asking to be traded from or released from the Miami Dolphins and is even taking steps to show he’s disgruntled with the organization by bad mouthing the coach.
All I can say is, he better be careful before he burns any bridges.
Look, at one …

I met Arlo Guthrie, in my home town, Eureka, CA, just a couple of years ago. If you do not know who this is, or if you were born too late to appreciate WHO he is, let me fill you in! In the 60’s, Arlo Guthrie was a VERY …
