There are millions of blogs on the web. They can come in a variety of forms and can cover a variety of different topics. Among these millions are many blogs focused solely on entertaining and intriguing their readers. I wanted to share a handful of blogs that I’ve come across in recent months that I hope [...]

TMZ.com, which we all know provides some of the highest quality news reporting on the net ;-), posted a photo slide show of celebrities matched up with their Muppet look-alikes. Some of the resemblances are simply uncanny! Check out the whole feature here or a few of my favorites below.
Telly and Zach Braff Kermit the [...]

When the Olympics were held in Atlanta 13 years ago, a local radio station from East Dublin, GA wanted to draw some of the Olympic crowds to their little town. What could they possibly do to accomplish this? Create the “Summer Redneck Games”, of course!
A week from today, on July 5th, the 13th Annual Summer Redneck [...]

I’d expect a “Celebrity 100″ list from People Magazine, but I was surprised today to see that Forbes.com published an extensive online feature on the top 100 celebs. I have to admit - reading celebrity magazines are a guilty pleasure of mine. Although, I only read them when I travel or when I visit the [...]

For anyone even slightly connected to current events or pop culture, you’ve heard of the “Wii.” A video game console controlled by a wireless remote, the Nintendo Wii is a video game marvel recently outselling all other non-portable consoles including Microsoft’s Xbox 360, Sony PlayStation 2 and PlayStation 3. According to NPD, Nintendo has sold 714.2 [...]

Last night was bitter sweet. The sweet - our kickball team walked away with a win (I knew all we needed was our official t-shirts - see previous post) followed by some celebration drinks, flip cup, and karaoke at the bar Samba in Somerville.
The bitter - while we were consumed in kickball victory bliss, David Archuleta was [...]

Last week the winners of the 12th Annual Webby Awards were announced. The Webby Awards pick the best of the best on the Internet in over 100 categories. Most entries fall into four main buckets -”Websites,” “Interactive Advertising,” “Online Film and Video,” or ”Mobile.” Some of the sites are quite entertaining! So you didn’t have to, I dug through them all and here are [...]

You know Dilbert? The comic strip that runs in more than 2,000 newspapers. Well, I’m not sure how funny it is to those who don’t work in an office, but I can relate to the comic strip without a doubt.
So, Dilbert.com just went through a bit of a re-launch. I poked around and came across this [...]

My little sisters are two of very many young girls that adore the 15-year-old actress and singing sensation Miley Cyrus (aka “Hannah Montana”). News has run rampant about her recent photo shoot with well-known photographer Annie Liebovitz for Vanity Fair magazine.
I understand PR stunts - hell, I work in PR - so I can actually [...]

Last weekend hundreds gathered in all their geek glory for New York ComicCon (a couple of my clients were there, but I didn’t make it out.) I did, however, stumble across a post and video on Boing Boing about the conference - a great video. Love this guy! I mean c’mon, how great is his assesment that you can tell [...]

Every once and awhile you’ll stumble across a brilliant video on YouTube. Sometimes an ambitious director devised some wonderful visual concept and then carried it out in an elaborate production. Other times some shocking or hilarious person or event was captured on video by chance.
The winners of the YouTube.com 2007 video awards are a mixture of both produced [...]

One of my favorite toys growing up were LEGOs and just last month LEGO celebrated their 50th anniversary. When I was a kid the LEGO craze was somewhat limited to small plastic bricks. Now there are LEGO theme parks, LEGO conventions, and, of course, LEGO video games.
I’ve heard a lot of buzz about the LEGO video games, [...]

The Grammy’s were on last night (if you haven’t already heard or, perhaps, live under a rock). Tina Turner and Beyonce’s performance of Proud Mary was absolutely FABULOUS!
Tina probably could have picked a better outfit (the silver body suit wasn’t extremely flattering for her), but I loved her hair and the overall performance from both of them was [...]

It turns out over 1,600 people showed up last night for the Boston Derby Dames bout and there were lots of interesting characters in attendance (keeping Dan and I very entertained in between periods). The Wicked Pissahs beat the Cosmonaughties, but unfortunately lost one of their dames in the last period. The poor pissah had to be [...]

This weekend the Wicked Pissahs take on the Cosmonaughties in a bout of barbaric porportions.
I recently discovered the Boston Derby Dames, a roller derby league in the Boston area. I am truly intrigued by the whole production. In a way it almost reminds me of the WWE and wrestling - big personalities and a big [...]
