PAUL RUDD = LINDSEY BUCKINGHAM? The folks at American Polymath interview Chuck Klosterman , and while I appreciated his dual answer to "What is your favorite era in Elvis Presley’s (or Grbac) career?", it's another question in the interview that's a grab bag of fun for the readers of this ...

DID YOU HERE THE ONE ABOUT SHOOTING FISH IN A BARREL? Newsweek really goes out on a limb in this list of 12 Unfunny Comics , zagging rather than zigging with takedowns of such revered comedic geniuses as Pauly Shore, Carrot Top, and even poor old Yakov Smirnoff. When Jeff Dunham is the most ...

GIG 'EM: I was generally neutral or slightly favorable to UT in the Texas v. Texas A&M wars of my youth, but that doesn't mean I wasn't in awe of the phenomenon that was Aggie Bonfire , where students built a 55 foot tall bonfire and lit it on fire after it was doused with jet fuel. 10 ...

NOW THIRD IN LINE FOR THE PRESIDENCY: Despite a substantial number of reports that Robert Pattinson would be named this year's Sexiest Man Alive over the past few days, instead, Johnny Depp becomes only the third (after Brad Pitt and George Clooney) two-time winner of the title. Also sexy, per ...
