MSN – News – Dave Chappelle Says He’s Not Crazy

well thankfully it’s not anything really serious. but does this interview/report answer any questions? does dave chappelle really think the first two seasons of chappelle show don’t reflect his “voice?” i can imagine that comedy central would want to be able to review some of the stuff, but i also think they’d let a lot of stuff go because it’s a cable channel, the ratings, while great for comedy central aren’t huge compared to broadcast or premium channels, and you know, they paid him to do that kind of show. regardless, i’m glad it’s just apparently a matter of a man trying to get his bearings rather than drugs or some sort of mental collapse.

umm, i’m guess this is for a role, but natalie with no hair! actually not all that bad looking.

edit: natalie shaved her head for “V is for Vendetta” the wachowskis new film. she did it for a torture scene. she also said she had been looking forward to it bc she had wanted to do it for a long time (via imdb.com)

so i’m watching twister on tbs. and here’s the thing. i can buy that at the end of the movie they can actually strap themselves to a pipe with some leather straps and they’ll not be sucked into the tornado. i can buy that the tornado can rip a whole house and have it roll across the road so the main characters can drive through it (even though somehow the tornados not strong enough to pick up and toss the truck). i can buy that they can run away from the tornado that’s throwing trees around them (and a freaking crop cutting huge thing right over them) but the tornado doesn’t pick them up too. but here’s the thing. it bothers me more than words can say that (and i can even buy that they somehow avoid all debris when running away from it) that when they do strap themselves to a pipe with the leather straps that even though they are now sideways up in the air because the tornados SO strong that no debris hits them in the head. or that they can actually have their eyes open to look up into the tornado even though there’s like 10 tons of dirt and little things that should be flying into their eyes. i mean you get on a roller coaster and there’s a good chance that you can’t have your eyes open the whole time just because wind going 40-50 mph, nevermind 100+ or whatever it was the tornado in twister was supposed to be.

ESPN.com – NFL – Louisiana unmoved by Saints talks with San Antonio

i don’t care about the saints. they are terrible. it’s a given they will collapse toward the end of the season. it’s a given that just when you think he’s great, aaron brooks will do something to kill the team. the only thing in this article worth mentioning, is NOT that the saints might move to san antonio (yeah right, NFL’s next franchise will almost certainly be LA, you know tags and the other owners have been trying to get a team back to LA since the raiders and rams left), but rather that the owner of the saints said he’s received offers for the team of over $1 billion. it’s the SAINTS!

i don’t know what’s funnier. that there is an actual lawsuit over this stuff or some of the things people have asked for/received for their numbers.
