"I'm about to lose control and I think I like it!"
Apparently this was Sean at Young Adult group last Sunday night. I wish I could've been there since it was game night. This photo (un-enhanced, of course) was taken as he was acting out a movie scene for charades. Personally, I would have guessed a Jackie Chan movie, but he was trying to show "The Notebook". Where a flying jump-kick fits into a romantic drama about a woman's battle to remember her husband is anyone's guess...

Brother Hits the Big Time
But on a totally unrelated note, guess what? My big brother Ryan just landed a sweet job and made the front page of yesterday's Circleville Herald! I've uploaded a PDF document of the paper here. He's very smart and talented. He's not a child of privilege, but is a self-made success story. I'm very proud to be his little brother. I look up to him very much. Hopefully one day when he reaches the top he can get me a job or something....or at least a little notoriety since we share the same last name.

Barry, don't apologize
Apparently you can't be funny anymore. Barry Melrose makes a crack about Newark not being safe and he gets vilified.
From article: In a video segment posted on ESPN.com last week, Melrose described the recently opened arena as a "beautiful new building" but added, "Don't go outside if you have a wallet or anything else, because the area around the arena is just horrible."
Newark mayor Cory A. Booker and Municipal Council president Mildred Crump took exception to the remarks and called for Melrose to apologize.
"All of us make mistakes, but it's a shame when it's at the expense of 300,000 people," Booker said, referring to Newark's population.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------"ESPN spokesman Josh Krulewitz said the network would not punish Melrose for the comments.
"Barry addressed it and that was the important thing," Krulewitz said. "He obviously was remorseful and we feel it's in everybody's best interests to put it behind us.""
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------Wouldn't punish Melrose?!?!? Why should they? And why should he be remorseful? Why should he sugar coat how he (rightly) feels? In this age where every liberal nut job in hollywood has the "right" to make their moronic political opinions known, why does Barry Melrose get slammed? Is it the mullet? What a wonderful PC age we live in. What's the big deal? Newark IS a sewer. But hey, what can you expect from a screwed-up state a like NJ?

NASCAR is....contagious?
WASHINGTON --Oh, come on, I'm just teasing! Or am I???
NASCAR fans might seem rabid, but are they actually contagious?
Getting a hepatitis shot is standard procedure for travelers to parts of Africa and Asia, but some congressional aides were instructed to get immunized before going to Lowe's Motor Speedway in Concord and the racetrack in Talladega, Ala.
The House Homeland Security Committee planned a fact-finding trip about public health preparedness at mass gatherings and decided to conduct the research at two of the nation's most heavily attended sporting events, NASCAR's Bank of America 500 event this weekend and the UAW-Ford 500 last weekend.
Staff who organized the trips advised the NASCAR-bound aides to get a range of vaccines before attending -- hepatitis A, hepatitis B, tetanus, diphtheria and influenza.

Remodeling Discovery
Its truly amazing what you'll find when you undertake a remodeling job in an old building. Don't ask me why, but we found these viking artifacts in what was formerly Broadmoor Baptist Church (don't ask me why Baptists would have these, let alone hide them in a wall).
Like any other priceless artifact, we proceeded to mess around with them. Phil, being somewhat Nordic, is showing us how his ancestors made use of them to crush their foes. I'm not quite sure why he thinks its ok to put his lips on that "horn", if that is what it is...

Congrats, Sean!
Hello avid readers!
In case some of you haven't heard, our very own Sean co-hosted a radio show on AFR. It kind of bums me out, though, because he is always one-upping me. He couldn't stand that I was (temporarily) a bigger celebrity because of my crack reporting during a recent news episode on WAPT news.
I must admit, though, that he did an excellent job. So great a job, it seems, that he has already begun to branch out into other media. This is the movie poster of the part he has been offered.
Apparently, it is the sequel to the box office hit "Stomp the Yard". Personally, I didn't know that Scribey could dance, but I recently found out that he minored in Urban Dance Stylings in college.
